CNC
Computer Numeric Control is a technology that is used in many industries. Our 5-axis CNC machine has the capacity to create all types models using a range of materials including wood, plastics and aluminium.
The following is an abstract from this web-site. A detailed summary of the purpose of and what is possible with a CNC machine.
“CNC, or Computer Numerical Control, encompasses the manufacturing process where machines cut, carve and form parts based on computer codes that control the cutting tool’s speed and movement.
These machines cut metals, wood, foam, composites, plastics and more into precise parts with uses in almost every industry.
They do this autonomously and without any human intervention once the manufacturing code is generated, greatly improving manufacturing speed, efficiency, repeatability, reliability, and precision – and they can potentially go 24/7.”
