 What is CNC Machine ?

Computer Numerical Control

CNC Machining is a process used in the manufacturing sector that involves the use of computers to control machine tools. Tools that can be controlled in this manner include lathes, mills, routers and grinders. The CNC in CNC Machining stands for Computer Numerical Control.

CNC Lathe Machine Parts detail;

Vice:
 Vice is actually like a clamp which holds the job. At the time of machining the material must be held tightly otherwise it will shake or vibrate and can fly out which can cause serious damage. So the main function of the vice is to hold the material in the perfect position for cutting and shaping.
Guard
: The guard provides protection to the CNC machine operator. The guide keeps the dangerous areas enclosed with some kind of barrier. Dangerous area means the spaces from where chips can be shoot and head towards the machine operator.
Chuck: 
 This part holds the material that is needed to be shaped or cut. Materials should be fastened to the chuck with care otherwise the material can fly out of the chuck causing damage. Sometimes chucks are used to hold the cutting tool.
Motor: 
 The motor is the main mover in the CNC lathe. This devise rotates the chuck of the CNC.
Lathe Bed:
  It is the base of the lathe machine. Usually CNC machines use special foundation for making the machine stationary so that the lathe bed doesn’t move or vibrate.
Cutting Tool:
 Very high quality steel is used to make the cutting tools. Different types of cutting tools are used to shape the material.

What is the CNC lathe?

Most CNC Swiss-style lathes today use one or two main spindles plus one or two back spindles (secondary spindles). The main spindle is used with the guide bushing for the main machining operations. The secondary spindle is located behind the part, aligned on the Z axis.

What is a CNC turning machines?

Turning is a machining process in which a cutting tool, typically a non-rotary tool bit, describes a helix toolpath by moving more or less linearly while the workpiece rotates. ... (CNC is also commonly used with many other types of machining besides turning.)

What is a CNC turning center used for?

Commonly performed with a lathe, turning reduces the diameter of a workpiece, typically to a specified dimension, and produces a smooth part finish. A turning center is a lathe with a computer numerical control. Sophisticated turning centers can also perform a variety of milling and drilling operations.

 

What do you mean by CNC machine?

CNC programming software creates program codes and instructions used to run a machine tool controlled by a computer. ... In general terms, CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control and has been around since the early 1970's (often referred to as NC programmiing
