CNCtöötlemine

CNCtöötlemine, also known as CNC machining, is a subtractive manufacturing process that involves using computer-controlled machines to remove material from a workpiece to create a desired shape. CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control. This technology automates the operation of machine tools such as drills, lathes, routers, and mills. The process begins with a digital design of the part, typically created using Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software. This design is then translated into a set of instructions, known as G-code, which the CNC machine can understand.

The G-code dictates the precise movements of the cutting tool and the workpiece, including the speed of rotation, the depth of cut, and the path the tool follows. This high degree of automation and precision allows for the production of complex geometries and intricate details with remarkable accuracy and repeatability. CNC machining is widely used across various industries, including aerospace, automotive, medical, and manufacturing, for prototyping, mass production, and creating custom parts. Common materials that can be CNC machined include metals like aluminum and steel, plastics, wood, and composites. The process offers advantages such as increased efficiency, reduced human error, and the ability to work with a wide range of materials.
