Introduction to CNC- Computer Numerical Control

Description

Designed for all Staff who work or want to work as Mechanical Manufacturing Engineers.

To understand the origins of CNC Machining,

it’s important to break the phrase down into three parts:

First, “machining,” or the process of removing metal with the assistance of mechanical equipment, has been around for centuries. Machining processes include: turning, drilling, milling, sawing, broaching and grinding.

Next, “NC” stands for “Numerical Control.” In traditional machining, a human operator must control the motion of a machine tool. Numerical control, first developed in the 1940s, governs the motion of machines automatically, through set instructions.

Finally, the “C” gets added. “Computer Numerical Control” designates a process by which an operator can write, adjust and implement instructions using a computer console.
