Benefits of CNC Machining

With more than thirty years of research and development, CNC is a mature technology that is dependable and reliable. Over the years, continuous improvement has eliminated system elements that diminish reliability.

While the specific intention and application for CNC machines vary from one machine type to another, all forms of CNC have common benefits. Here are but a few of the more important benefits offered:

• Low cost of production. Once set up, the machines will repeat very accurately and require minimal machinist level intervention.
• High part to part accuracy and consistency.
• Fast, consistent thru-put of finished goods.
• With part fixturing, fast setup and rapid shipment from order date is possible.
• Machining centers are capable of milling nearly every material imaginable.
• Happy Customers

One of the most notable benefits offered by all forms of CNC machine tools is improved automation. The operator intervention related to producing workpieces can be reduced or eliminated. Many CNC machines can run unattended during their entire machining cycle, freeing the operator to do other tasks. This gives the CNC user several side benefits including reduced operator fatigue, fewer mistakes caused by human error, and consistent and predictable machining time for each workpiece. Since the machine will be running under program control, the skill level required of the CNC operator (related to basic machining practice) is also reduced as compared to a machinist producing workpieces with conventional machine tools.

Another major benefit of CNC technology is consistent and accurate workpieces. Today's CNC machines boast almost unbelievable accuracy and repeatability specifications. This means that once a program is verified, two, ten, or one thousand identical workpieces can be easily produced with precision and consistency.

As well, CNC machining offers undeniable flexibility. Since these machines are run from programs, running a different workpiece is almost as easy as loading a different program. Once a program has been verified and executed for one production run, it can be easily recalled the next time the workpiece is to be run. This leads to yet another benefit, fast change-overs. Since these machines are very easy to setup and run, and since programs can be easily loaded, they allow very short setup time. This is imperative with today's Just-In-Time product requirements.
