What is CNC Turning?
CNC turning is a process that machines parts by "turning" a rod material. The rod is fed through to a cutting tool and then material is shaped into a finished product. In CNC turning, the cutter is normally fed through a rotating work piece and this rotating work piece typically uses a variety of different angles as well as many different tool shapes.
CNC turning is generally used for creating parts that are symmetrical near their axis. For example a chess pawn would be a part that is symmetrical near its axis. The shapes that you can create using CNC turning vary greatly though and with the addition of other machining processes, the possibilities are endless!
While most people use CNC turning to create turned parts that only utilize a single axis, it is also possible to use ones that have more than one axis. This allows for more flexibility.
