CNC turning is considered the best process to make cylindrical parts, to a high level of accuracy and precision. The turning process reduces the diameter of the original workpiece to a specified dimension, the rotation is performed using a lathe and produces a smooth part finish.
There are four different types of turning; straight turning, taper turning, profiling and external grooving. CNC turning can be performed on the outside of a workpiece and on the inside (known as boring) to produce tubular components.
The abbreviation ‘CNC’ stands for computer numerical control. It is the name given to the process of converting a design made by computer-aided design software (CAD) into numbers, using a computer. These numbers control the movement of the specific tool being used for the CNC process selected.
