What is CNC Turning?

CNC turning is a subtractive manufacturing process where a cutting tool, typically non-rotating, is fed against a rotating workpiece. This process is commonly used to create cylindrical parts with high precision and repeatability. It is widely applied in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and medical device manufacturing to produce shafts, bushings, and other round components.
