2. The advantages for businesses when applying CNC technology
The application of CNC (Computer Numerical Control) technology in industrial production is not merely a trend but has become a vital factor that helps businesses enhance their competitive edge.
2.1. Superior accuracy and stability
CNC machining machines are programmed and controlled by computers, allowing the creation of products with extremely high precision, reaching up to thousandths of a millimeter. This is particularly important in industries that require high precision such as:
- Automotive industry: Manufacturing components such as pistons, camshafts, and gears with high precision.
- Machinery manufacturing: Machining complex components, meeting stringent technical standards.
- Electronics and high technology: Manufacturing circuit boards and small components with extremely low tolerances.
Additionally, the stability of CNC ensures that each production run yields consistent products, minimizing technical errors to the greatest extent, thereby enhancing brand reputation.
2.2. Optimizing production time
CNC machining has the ability to operate continuously 24/7 with cutting speeds superior to traditional methods. This helps businesses:
- Meeting large orders in a short time: Ensure that the production process is not interrupted.
- Minimize downtime: CNC machines can be programmed to perform many automated tasks without human intervention.
- Increasing labor productivity: A CNC machine can replace many workers in the manual processing process.
“If traditional machining requires 5 workers to complete a batch of products in 8 hours, then with CNC machines, this process can be shortened to just 4 hours with only 1 supervising engineer.”
2.3. High automation and flexibility
CNC machines not only automate the production process but also offer flexibility in changing setups. Just by changing the program, the machine can quickly switch from producing part A to part B without complex mechanical adjustments. This helps businesses:
- Meeting the diverse needs of customers: From large orders to personalized requests.
- Reduce production changeover time: No time wasted on resetting machinery.
- Increase small batch production capacity: Suitable for custom orders and highly complex products.
2.4. Long-term cost savings
Although the initial investment cost for CNC machines is relatively high, in the long run, businesses will reap many economic benefits thanks to:
- Reducing labor costs: A CNC machine can replace many manual workers, minimizing salary and benefit expenses.
- Material savings: CNC machines have high precision, minimizing waste and material loss.
- Less maintenance and upkeep: Modern CNC equipment has high durability, fewer malfunctions, and is easy to maintain regularly.
2.5. Enhance the quality and prestige of the brand
When applying CNC technology, businesses can ensure that products meet high standards and are consistent in quality, thereby:
- Enhancing trust from partners and customers: Thanks to the stability and consistent quality of the product.
- Expanding the export market: Meeting international standards for quality and precision.
- Building a strong brand: With a modern, professional, and reliable image.
2.6. Occupational safety and risk reduction
Manual machining always carries many risks of workplace accidents, whereas CNC fully automates the process, helping:
- Minimize direct contact with dangerous machinery.
- Reduce the risk of workplace accidents due to manual handling.
- Enhance quality control in a safe working environment.
3. Detailed comparison between CNC and traditional machining
According to the report by the Vietnam Mechanical Engineering Association in 2024, companies using CNC have reduced production costs by 30% and increased labor productivity by 40% compared to traditional methods.
A study at the Machine Manufacturing Technology Center shows that investing in CNC machines helps businesses save up to 20% on material costs due to high precision and fewer errors.
| Criteria | CNC machining | Traditional machining |
| Accuracy | Height, tolerance ±0.005 mm | Low, tolerance ±0.1 mm |
| Production speed | Fast, operating 24/7, increasing productivity by 30-50% | Slow, dependent on manual labor |
| Automation | Completely automated, minimal intervention | Manual, semi-automatic |
| Repeat and stabilize | High, consistent quality | Unstable, dependent on craftsmanship |
| Investment cost | High (500 million – several billion) | Low, invest in basic machinery |
| Operating costs | Low, few workers, low waste | High, many workers, high error rate |
| Material efficiency | High, scrap under 2% | Low, loss of 10-15% |
| Occupational safety | High, little contact with the machine | Low, high accident risk |
| Capital recovery | Fast (1-2 years) | Slow, low productivity, high cost |
