CNC turning is a subtractive manufacturing process ideal for creating axisymmetric parts (think cylinders, shafts, etc.) at high speeds. A computer numerically controlled (CNC) lathe spins the workpiece while a sharp cutting tool removes material to achieve your desired design. This process excels at producing large quantities of identical parts from various materials like metal, plastic, and wood.
CNC turning excels in creating a specific range of parts, particularly those with a cylindrical or oblong shape. Here are some key applications where CNC turning can be your best machining choice:
CNC turning allows for incredibly precise machining, making it perfect for parts requiring strict dimensional accuracy and high tolerances. This is crucial for applications like gears, shafts, and other components where precise fit and function are essential.
Modern CNC turning machines can handle a surprising degree of complexity. While primarily suited for cylindrical shapes, these machines can incorporate features like grooves, threads, and tapers within the rotational axis.
CNC turning is ideal for producing large quantities of identical parts quickly and efficiently. The automation and precision of the process ensure consistent quality throughout the entire production run.
For producing large quantities of relatively simple, cylindrical parts, CNC turning is often a very cost-effective solution. The minimal material waste and efficient production process contribute to its economic advantage.
