CNC turning is a highly precise and efficient subtractive machining process that works on the principle of the lathe machine. It involves placing the cutting tool against a turning workpiece to remove materials and give the desired shape.

The turning center or lathe stays secured while the raw material rotates at high speed. As the workpiece rotates along a dual CNC turning machine axis movement, a single-point cutting tool helps to shape the material. Computer programs help to control the turning center or lathe, ensuring the production of meticulously precise components.

Because of its mode of operation, CNC turning is typically used for producing cylindrical or oblong-shaped components. However, it can also create several shapes with axial symmetries. These shapes include cones, disks, or a combination of shapes. Some turning centers can even carry out polygonal turning operations with special rotating tools. That way, you can create hexagonal or square-shaped components.
