What are the similarities and differences between Kunshan CNC machining and traditional machining?

CNC machining and traditional machining are both processing methods for metals, plastics and other materials. CNC machining uses computer programs to operate machine tools for machining, while traditional machining requires manual operation of external items such as tools, rockers and cutting fluids.

In the processing of complex shapes of the workpiece, CNC machining efficiency is higher. It can easily produce high-quality parts and products, and has three main advantages. First of all, the computer program allows the production process of each part to be very accurately controlled. Secondly, CNC machining is also more efficient when producing a large number of identical parts or products. Finally, because CNC machining is controlled by a computer program, this method is more suitable for realizing machining line automation in mass production, thereby improving production efficiency.

Traditional machining is mainly manual operation or through specialized tools to process the required materials, which means that the machining master should complete more work in addition to the normal operation, which will cause the skill level of the machining to decline over time. Traditional machining processes, such as material preparation, workpiece clamping, machining error control, etc., require a certain degree of experience and manual intervention.

Nevertheless, traditional machining is still widely used in the manufacturing industry, and in some special cases, traditional machining is still more effective than CNC machining. For example, for parts that process difficult-to-process materials (such as superalloys), traditional machining is more refined for surface damage to the material during processing, and traditional machining costs are lower when dealing with small batch production.

In addition, one of the advantages of CNC machining is that it can handle a variety of materials, including plastics, metals, wood and ceramics. Traditional machining requires different tools and techniques for different types of materials. As a result, CNC machining is more flexible and versatile.

Overall, although CNC machining and traditional machining have their own advantages and disadvantages, CNC machining is becoming more and more popular in the manufacturing industry. In the future, with the development of technology, CNC machining technology will be more mature and gradually replace traditional machining.
