Cnc Machining General Information

CNC machining refers to any process that uses a CNC machine. This could be for routing, milling, drilling, or other types of work that is done with metal, wood or other materials. This is a manufacturing process that uses the automatic opportunity from the computer to create shapes or forms that must be precise.

Raw materials are used and they are put into a CNC machine that uses cutting tools to make these shapes. The CNC machining process involves computers that have at least one microprocessor and several units for storage. With CAD or CAM software systems added to CNC the computer can be programmed to produce the precise movements that are able to create the part.

In CNC machining the process is automated which saves the operator time and saves the business money. The operator is able to load the materials, program the machine and then the machine can work without attention when set up properly; the amount of time it is run without attention is also programmed in.

An important aspect of any CNC machining is for the operator to know the machine well. CNC is an addition to the general aspects of the machine. As an example, if you are doing routing, adding CNC to the process only automates it. However, for the operator, it means that they must understand the machine, how to put in codes or use CAD or CAM and how to operate the machine; they must also understand how basic routing works.

Another area that is important in order to understand CNC machining is the basic components of the machine. It is important to know how these machines operate in order to fix them if something goes wrong. This also allows the operator to understand the limitations and the capabilities of the machine to get the most out of its use.

As CNC machining becomes a project the operator is in charge defining five areas. They will first think about the project they want to design and plan it out. This is where sitting down and drawing out plans will be a good idea.

The next area is to understand CAD to translate the drawing into the computer and then an understanding of CAM to translate the CAD information into machine language. In the final area the individual must understand the Controlling function in order to make the machine do what is required. When all these areas are fulfilled properly they allow the individual to create the project in the way they saw it in their drawing.

CNC machining was traditionally only done in commercial settings with very large CNC machines. Today, there are mini-CNC machines that allow the process to be done on a smaller scale in a home workshop. This has allowed the smaller business to be able to take advantage of building a variety of parts and products that were not previously available except on a larger scale.

CNC machining can produce both simple and complex designs and can be used on a variety of materials including aluminum, foam, wood and other metals.

What is surface roughness and why is it important?
In the field of precision manufacturing, an indicator that is invisible to the naked eye is determining the success or failure of products worth billions of dollars - surface roughness. According to the calculations of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the failure of mechanical components caused by uncontrolled surface roughness causes more than $18 billion in losses to the global manufacturing industry each year. From titanium alloy joints implanted in the human body (Ra < 0.1μm) to the sealing surface of satellite thrusters (Ra 0.4-0.8μm), the difference in micro-texture directly affects key performance such as friction coefficient and fatigue life. This article will deeply analyze the scientific connotation and industrial value of this "invisible quality indicator".
