Get to Know the Basics of CNC Machine Tools

For those belonging to fabrication and
manufacturing industries equipment belonging to
the CNC category is a daily thing although CNC
sounds foreign to most of us. Used since the
1970's at the onset of computers, CNC stands for
Computer Numerical Control. Except that when it
was first introduced it was first called only NC
or numerical control that is how it got its name.
The Belt Sanders are also quite useful. Reducing
wastage and production time and resulting to
increased production efficiency, The CNC in a
certain fabrication process is programmed to
reduce manual intervention. To illustrate this,
using a drill press the operator is required to
manually bore hole on the metal for metal
preparation using conventional tools.

But he has to select the desired speed for
rotation of the drill press, secure the metal in
place, and manually drive the drill into the
metal by activating the spindle before he can do
it. Accidents are bound to happen at each step of
the process and that takes a lot of errors and
steps. All these work for the operator are
simplified by the CNC machine. He only has to set
the controls, activate the spindle, position the
metal in its place and the machine does the rest
with the CNC equivalent of the drill press. It
is the automated ways of doing things. With CNC
machines everything that an operator is required
to do with the conventional machine tools is
programmable.

Being able to produce accurate and consistent
work pieces is another advantage of a CNC
machine. In a short span of time, the CNC machine
can produce thousands of identical pieces once
the programming controls had been set. If done
manually, this is almost impossible. CNC
machines can be some tools that we encounter as
we do about our respective businesses without us
knowing it. The use of these machines is in large
range endeavors as well apart from being used in
the metal industry. Especially for those that
require mass production of articles, it is used.

Conclusion To meet these demands the need for
producers becomes more urgent as the demand
increases. But production processes are made
safer, faster and easier with CNC machines.
