Computer Numerical Control or CNC machining is a production process in which pre-programmed software controls the movement of manufacturing machinery and tools. The process is widely used to control a series of sophisticated machinery, from lathes and grinders to routers and mills. With CNC production, you can get a 3D cutting task performed in a single set of codes.
The whole production process runs in divergence and limits the use of manual controls, where operators are required to guide and prompt the commands of machining equipment via buttons, wheels and levers. For the onlooker, a computer numerical control system resembles a regular set of codes. Still, the responsible program and consoles in the system help to differentiate it from other manufacturing processes.
