Conventional CNC Machining utilizes Computer Numerical Control (CNC) systems to operate a range of machine tools such as mills, lathes, and routers. This automation enables the high-precision shaping of various metals and plastics, crucial for diverse applications across industries. CNC machining is automation driven by programmed software, which directs the machine tools to perform specific cuts and shapes. Despite the high degree of automation, the precision of a CNC machine relies on meticulous programming and calibration to account for potential errors during multi-directional cuts.
