CNC Turning |
 |
|
Turning, is the process used to produce cylindrical components in a lathe. It can be done manually, or using a CNC machine.
When turning, a cylindrical piece of material (wood, metal, etc.) is rotated and a cutting tool is traversed along 2 axes of motion to produce precise diameters and depths. Turning can be either on the outside of the cylinder or on the inside.

Get more out of turning operations
|
|
Boosting the productivity of a lathe operation by at least 50 percent is as easy as adding a barfeeder. Such productivity gains stem from the fact that barfeeders provide a constant supply of raw part material to lathes, allow for unattended operation and lend support for machining at fast speeds.
