2. Multiaxis machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiaxis_machining

   Multiaxis machining. A 5-axis water jet cutter and a part manufactured with it. Multiaxis machining is a manufacturing process that involves tools that move in 4 or more directions and are used to manufacture parts out of metal or other materials by milling away excess material, by water jet cutting or by laser cutting.

3. Numerical control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_control

   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. It is used to operate tools such as drills, lathes, mills, grinders, routers and 3D printers. CNC transforms a piece of material (metal, plastic, wood, ceramic, stone ...

4. Ghost Gunner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_Gunner

   Ghost Gunner began as a limited series of CNC mills produced by Defense Distributed in a crowdfunding sale to its mailing list in October 2014. Spring 2015 shipments sold out almost immediately, and its first media reviewer noted the machine "...worked so well that it may signal a new era in the gun control debate, one where the barrier to legally building an untraceable, durable, and deadly ...

5. Milling (machining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milling_(machining)

   Milling is the process of machining using rotary cutters to remove material [ 1 ] by advancing a cutter into a workpiece. This may be done by varying directions [ 2 ] on one or several axes, cutter head speed, and pressure. [ 3 ] Milling covers a wide variety of different operations and machines, on scales from small individual parts to large ...

8. History of numerical control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_numerical_control

   History of numerical control. The history of numerical control (NC) began when the automation of machine tools first incorporated concepts of abstractly programmable logic, and it continues today with the ongoing evolution of computer numerical control (CNC) technology. The first NC machines were built in the 1940s and 1950s, based on existing ...

9. Automatic tool changer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_Tool_Changer

   In machining, an automatic tool changer (ATC) is used in computerized numerical control (CNC) machine tools to improve the production and tool carrying capacity of the machine. ATCs change tools rapidly, reducing non-productive time. They are generally used to improve the capacity of the machines to work with a number of tools.
