In 1952, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) collaborated with the military to create the first numerically controlled milling machine using a vacuum tube control system. Over 70 years later, with the advancement of computer technology and the maturation of computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software, CNC machining is evolving towards higher precision and greater diversity.
CNC (short for Computer Numerical Control) machining is a technology that uses computers to issue commands, controlling various systems of a lathe to automatically complete the processing of parts.
