Generation

CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining uses computer programs to control cutting tools that precisely remove material from a workpiece to create a desired shape. You start by designing a part in CAD software, then convert it to G-code instructions that tell the machine exactly where to move, how fast to spin the tool, and how deep to cut. The CNC machine automatically executes these instructions, moving the cutting tool along multiple axes (typically 3-5) to mill, drill, or turn the material with high accuracy and repeatability. This automation allows you to produce complex parts consistently, from prototypes to mass production, without manually operating the machine for each cut.
