What is CNC milling and turning operation?

CNC milling and turning are two important processes in machining.

CNC milling refers to the use of CNC milling machines to process a stationary workpiece with a rotating tool that can move along multiple axes (such as X, Y, and Z) to remove material and create the desired shape. It is widely used in the processing of parts of various shapes and sizes, and is particularly good at processing complex three-dimensional shapes, with high flexibility and processing accuracy.

CNC turning is the process of rotating the raw material (usually a cylinder) so that the tool is fed along the axial direction to produce cylindrical or axisymmetric parts. CNC turning is particularly suitable for manufacturing cylindrical parts such as shafts and tubes. Its processing process is stable and accurate, and it can obtain high-precision cylindrical surfaces.

Both are indispensable technologies in modern manufacturing, which can efficiently and accurately process various complex parts to meet various industrial needs.
