2. Numerical control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_control

   A CNC machine that operates on wood CNC machines typically use some kind of coolant, typically a water-miscible oil, to keep the tool and parts from getting hot. A CNC metal lathe with the door open. In machining, numerical control, also called computer numerical control (CNC), [1] is the automated control of tools by means of a computer. [2]

3. History of numerical control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_numerical_control

   Other methods of transferring CNC programs to machine tools, such as diskettes or direct connection of a portable computer, are also used. Punched mylar tapes are more robust. Floppy disks , USB flash drives and local area networking have replaced the tapes to some degree, especially in larger environments that are highly integrated.

4. CNC router - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNC_router

   A computer numerical control (CNC) router is a computer-controlled cutting machine which typically mounts a hand-held router as a spindle which is used for cutting various materials, such as wood, composites, metals, plastics, glass, and foams.

5. CNC wood router - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNC_wood_router

   A CNC wood router uses CNC (computer numerical control) and is similar to a metal CNC mill with the following differences: The wood router typically spins faster — with a range of 13,000 to 24,000 RPM; Professional quality machines frequently use surface facing tools up to 3" in diameter or more, and spindle power from 5 to 15 horsepower.

6. Direct numerical control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_numerical_control

   Direct numerical control (DNC), also known as distributed numerical control (also DNC), is a common manufacturing term for networking CNC machine tools.On some CNC machine controllers, the available memory is too small to contain the machining program (for example machining complex surfaces), so in this case the program is stored in a separate computer and sent directly to the machine, one ...

7. Digital modeling and fabrication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_modeling_and...

   CNC machines are classified according to the number of axes that they possess, with 3, 4 and 5 axis machines all being common, and industrial robots being described with having as many as 9 axes. CNC machines are specifically successful in milling materials such as plywood, plastics, foam board, and metal at a fast speed. CNC machine beds are ...
