CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining is the precise processing of incoming materials such as metal or plastic through computer numerical control, which can greatly reduce the number of tooling, and the processing of parts with complex shapes does not require complicated tooling.

With the development of industrial manufacturing, CNC machining has become an important way to manufacture high-quality products, and it is widely used in automobile modification, aerospace, high-end audio, photography and medical equipment and other fields.

 

The main features of CNC machining are as follows:

1-High processing precision and high repeatability, meeting the requirements of difficult processing;

2- Through the use of computer software for design and transformation, complex parts are processed into the required specified shape and size, while improving processing accuracy and reducing error rates; if only changing the shape and size of parts, only the parts need to be modified Processing procedures, applicable to the development and modification of new products;

3- Under the conditions of multi-variety and small-batch production, compared with traditional mechanical processing methods, cnc numerical control processing can greatly improve production efficiency, reduce production preparation, machine tool debugging and process inspection time, and reduce scrap rate and labor costs ; CNC machining can process complex contours that are difficult to process by traditional methods, and even process some difficult-to-observe processed parts.

It is worth noting that cnc machining can be applied to all major industries, especially some national core industries. CNC machining can be used to process complex-shaped workpieces such as box-shaped workpieces, complex curved surface workpieces, special-shaped workpieces, disc-shaped workpieces, sleeve-shaped workpieces, and flat-shaped workpieces.

 

In the process of cnc machining, the following points need to be paid attention to:

First of all, high-quality incoming materials need to be used for processing to ensure the strength and precision of the parts.

Secondly, during the programming process, it is necessary to precisely control the tool path and cutting parameters to ensure that the processed parts meet the design requirements.

Finally, regular maintenance and maintenance of cnc machining equipment is required to ensure the stability and precision of the equipment.

 

CNC machining is mainly used in automotive modification, aerospace, electronics and medical equipment. In the field of car modification, CNC machining can be used to produce key components such as engines, chassis and body parts. In the field of aerospace, CNC machining can be used to manufacture aircraft structural parts, engine parts and avionics equipment, etc.; in the field of electronics, CNC machining can be used to produce various electronic components and circuit boards, such as high-end audio, photography and camera equipment etc.; in the field of medical equipment, cnc machining can be used to manufacture artificial joints, prosthetics and surgical instruments, etc.
