CNC Turning is a process of machining a part where the center of rotation is controlled by computer. The machine rotates around a central point that is stationary, and the machine moves on tracks to perform different tasks. The process can be performed using robots, CNC mills or even CNC lathes. It is used in many industries like aerospace, automotive, medical and other industries
Cam Turning is also known as cylindrical turning or helical turning. It is a type of machining process in which a cylindrical workpiece is rotated around its axis while being guided by two guides at 90 degrees to each other. In this type of machinery, there is no fixed center point; instead it depends on the guide system which controls the rotation axis. Cam systems are used for parts that are not round or square as well as those with large diameters. Cam systems are more accurate than cnc systems because they do not depend on any external factors like gravity or force fields; they only depend on how much force can be applied through two points on a cam shaft.
