CNC turning produces parts by “turning” material and feeding it against a cutter tool. In CNC turning, the cutter can be fed into the rotating workpiece at a variety of angles. CNC turning is typically used to makes parts that are commonly symmetrical around a center axis. CNC turning can provide a variety of plain, taper, contour, fillet and radius profiles plus threaded surfaces. Although many turned parts use a single axis of revolution, there are also multiple axiis to allow more flexibility. CNC turning can be combined with CNC milling and other processes to provide more challenging shapes.
