Mind shift In this new scenario, instead of involving the use of a number of individual tools, the thinking is now shifted to the design and planning phase. It is important to know that CNC have the capabilities for complex and precise cutting and carving. Moreover, with CNC you still have the power to do complex and precise cutting and carving. Duplicates are all identical with no noticeable variations in them whatsoever. What come out unmatched as well are the CNC lathe s speed and the accuracy in the manufacture of these desired pieces or products. Experienced lathe machinists can do simple parts just as fast and accurately, but the properly programmed CNC lathe is more consistent. This software is just like a virtual game, allowing the operator to practice. Flexibility Not only could they change the designs of the machines, CNC machines like the milling machines could also perform different operations like drilling and cutting. CNC machines could adapt easily to different materials. The CNC program can be considered as an instruction set or the step by step procedure of the manufacturing process. In woodworking, the most common operation used would be the routing, which is also drilling. There are CNC equipments which can have several tools and perform different tasks, but uses one interface. Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines operate based on the design instruction provided by the CAD module. CNC machines use computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software to control the movements of the motor or the machine. CNC machines are not only routers, there are also borers, tenoners, and saws. In fact, as some enthusiasts cheerfully declare, the innovation only added to the fine quality and uniqueness of their creations. They are quick to add that their personal touches are all still there in their work, albeit done faster now than before. Where precise-fitting assemblies (dados, rabbets, inlays, arches, bas relief carvings) used to be difficult to produce using the traditional tools, CNC technology did all of them quickly and efficiently.
