CNC Machining
CNC Machining, or Computer Numerical Control Machining involves the use of computers to control machine tools. This technique offers higher levels of automation with increased work efficiency. It involves controlling various functions like coordination and speed, through a computer program which uses a language called G-Code.
Today, CNC machines are employed in almost all the industries; from small scale factories to large industries. Some industries where CNC machines are used include metal removing industries, metal fabrication industry, electrical discharge machining industry, and wood industry.
CNC machines offer multiple benefits and this is the reason they are more popular than conventional numerical control machines. FRIMA offers best CNC machining solutions in Ningbo,China.
Decreased Costs
CNC machines make the whole process more efficient, which reduces wastage of raw material. CNC machines also require fewer operators in comparison to conventional NC machines, which reduce the labor cost.
Increased Automation
CNC machines require less number of operators which improves automation. CNC machines can automatically change tools once they are loaded for the first time. Unlike conventional NC machines, which require skilled engineers, CNC machines can be operated by less skilled people, trained in operating the software, which decreases the dependency on labor.
Increased Efficiency
CNC machines are best suited for mass production because of their highly efficient working. These machines produce the same result every time; if an error or discrepancy is encountered in a product, the operation is stopped automatically which reduces raw material wastage.
High Flexibility
CNC machines are operated through computer programs; therefore, they are highly flexible. Changes can be made easily in these programs, which make updating CNC machines easier with minimal costs.
Reduced Chances of Errors
CNC machines are automated and run by computerized programs which reduce the chances of human error. Also, these machines come with inbuilt safety devices which reduce the chance of operator errors.
Uninterrupted Operation
CNC machines can be operated for 24 hours a day; you can use these machines continuously with turning them off. If proper and regular checks are performed, these machines can be used for years and years.
