CNC turning is a form of precision machining where a computer program dictates the movement of machinery to create detailed and complex parts from a metal rod. The term “CNC” stands for “Computer Numerical Control", which means that the turning lathe is controlled by a computer.
During the CNC turning process, the metal workpiece is rotated on a spindle while a cutting tool shapes it to match the desired design. The machine follows the programming commands to carry out the necessary operations, making cuts with high precision to produce components with the correct dimensions and surface finish.
CNC turning is preferred when the part design includes cylindrical shapes that are produced by rotating the workpiece against a stationary cutting tool. This is in contrast to CNC milling, where the workpiece is static and the cutting tools rotate around it.
