CNC turning is a subtractive manufacturing method (Removal of Material). Contrary to CNC Milling, Lathe machining is for circular geometries (stock is commonly a solid/hollow cylinder) but a hexagon ...
If you’re planning to make a metalworking lathe out of a CNC milling machine, you probably don’t expect getting a position sensor to work to be your biggest challenge. Nevertheless, this was [Anthony ...
Turning is a metalcutting process used for the generation of cylindrical surfaces. Typically the workpiece is rotated on a spindle and the tool is fed into it radially, axially or both ways ...
