CNC turning centers are machines used to cut and shape metal. They can be used for a wide range of applications, from simple household items like toys and electronic parts to complex items like aircraft parts
The classification of a CNC turning center depends on the type of cutting tool that you use. This guide will help you understand CNC turning centers and how they work
Classification of CNC Turning Centers
The main types of CNC turning centers are
Plunge Router: Plunge routers have a straight or slightly curved bed that slides on rails across your work piece. You make cuts using small diameter bits, which are mounted on the spindle shaft of the machine. The bit rotates while it makes its way across your work piece at high speed, creating deep cuts that can be used for intricate shapes and designs
Taper Cutting Machines: Taper cutting machines use two sets of cutting tools mounted on either side of an axis perpendicular to the axis being used for rotation (usually horizontal). A number of different cutting profiles can be created by changing what type of tool is in use; this allows you to create complex shapes with minimal difficulty.
