Detailed explanation of the machining process of CNC machining
CNC molding process: CNC, also known as Computerized Numerical Control, is a technology that directly imports CAD data into a workbench. The entire CNC process is completed by milling machines and routers, characterized by speed, precision, and high quality.

Process cost: low mold cost, low unit cost

Typical products: transportation vehicles, furniture, professional tools, etc

Suitable output: can be single or large quantities

Quality: High surface quality, determined by the grinding and polishing processes in CNC

Speed: The single piece forming speed is fast, which is determined by the finished product size and the number of CNC operation steps set

Applicable Materials

Basically suitable for all materials, such as plastic, metal, wood, glass, ceramics, and synthetic materials, etc

Design considerations

The number of axes in CNC determines the shape of the finished product. For example, a lathe can only perform 2-axis cutting (2-axis: x, y direction), while a milling machine can perform 5-axis forming (5-axis: x, y, z direction plus 2 rotation axes)

2. CNC can directly import CAD data into the workbench, with strong material adaptability and low cost, so it is often used by designers to make product prototypes, which is an indispensable part of the transition from design to production process

3. Simple or complex product shapes are treated equally by CNC technology as multiple connected sequence points for processing, providing unlimited design possibilities
