CNC Machining Process The abbreviation CNC stands for computer numerical control, and refers specifically to a computer "controller" that reads coded instructions and drives a machine tool to fabricate components by selective removal of material. The operating parameters of the CNC can be altered via the machine's software program. The introduction of CNC machines radically changed the manufacturing industry. Curves are as easy to cut as straight lines, complex 3D structures are relatively easy to produce, and the number of machining operations that require human action have been dramatically reduced. With the increased automation of manufacturing processes with CNC machining, considerable improvements in consistency and quality have been achieved with no strain on the operator. CNC automation reduced the frequency of errors and provided CNC operators with time to perform additional task. CNC automation also allows for more flexibility in the way parts are held in the manufacturing process and the time required to change the machine to produce different components. In a production environment, a series of CNC machines may be combined into one station, commonly called a "cell", to progressively machine a part requiring several operations. CNC machines today are controlled directly from files created by CAM software packages, so that a part or assembly can go directly from design to manufacturing without the need of producing a drafted paper drawing of the component. CNC machines can also be designed with error detection systems, that will notify the operator if the machine's sensors detect that tools or components are out of tolerance. CNC Machining |
