Introduction To CNC
• Computer Numerical Control (CNC)
Machining is the process through which computers
control machine-based processes in manufacturing.
• The kinds of machines controlled include
lathes, mills, routers and grinders – all used for
manufacturing of metal and plastic products.
• In this course, you’ll learn the ins-and-outs of
CNC machining; building the essential knowledge
to develop and operate a project with a CNC
machine.

Historical Development Of CNC
• Metalworking and fabrication was performed by numerical controlled or NC machines before the
invention of CNC machining.
• These NC machines were created in the late 1940s by John T. Parsons
• The implementation of Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Machining started developing in
1972 which lead to prominent developments in CNC machining.
• By 1989, these CNC machines had become the industry standard.
• Original NC machines had been controlled by punch cards that had a set of codes. These codes were
called G-codes.
• Today G –codes in CNC machines, along with logical commands have been combined to form a new
programming language.

Terms Used In CNC
• Cutting Tool: A device made of hard, tough material that is used to remove metal by creating chips.
• Feed Rate: The rate at which the cutting tool and the work piece move in relation to one another.
• Hardware: The physical components of a CNC machine.
• Machine Control Unit: A small, powerful computer that controls and operates a CNC machine.
• Machining Centre: A sophisticated CNC machine that can perform multiple machining operations at
the same location with a variety of tools.
• Part Program: The instructions for the CNC machine about how to create a part.
• Software: The coded instructions, formulas, and operations that structure the actions of a computer.
• Software: The coded instructions, formulas, and operations that structure the actions of a computer.
• Turning Centre: A sophisticated CNC machine that specializes in turning, boring, drilling, and
threading operations, all at the same location.
• Work piece: A part that is being worked on. It may be subject to cutting, welding, forming, or other
operations.
