I. Introduction to CNC Machining and Traditional Machining
1. What is CNC machining?
Definition of CNC machining technology.
CNC machining (Computer Numerical Control) is a modern mechanical machining method, in which the cutting and shaping of materials are carried out completely automatically thanks to computer-controlled machinery.
The operating principle of CNC machines in mechanical processing.
- Technical drawing design: Use CAD/CAM software to create product models.
- Machining programming: Converting drawings into G-code for the CNC machine to understand and execute.
- Automatic machining: The machine operates according to programmed commands, cutting and shaping materials according to technical specifications.
- Quality control: Measurement, accuracy check before shipment
2. What is traditional processing?
Traditional machining is a method that uses lathes, milling machines, planers, grinders, etc., combined with the manual operations of machinists to shape products.
Popular Traditional Machining Methods
- Turning: Removing material by rotating the workpiece and cutting with a lathe tool.
- Milling: Cutting with a rotating milling cutter to create a flat surface or shape.
- Grinding: Create a shine, increase the precision of the details.
- Drilling: Drill holes according to the required dimensions.
- Planer: Machining flat surfaces, simple curved surfaces.
The Limitations of Traditional Machining
- Dependent on the skill of the mechanic, the accuracy is not high.
- Cannot process complex details.
- Low productivity, time-consuming machine setup, and manual operations.
- High error rate, causing material waste.
3. The trend of CNC technology development in the mechanical engineering industry today.
- Automation: Reducing dependence on manual labor, enhancing production efficiency.
- Smart software application: Integrating AI and IoT to monitor and optimize the machining process.
- The demand for machining complex parts is increasing: Especially in the automotive, aerospace, medical, and electronics industries.
- 5-axis CNC technology: Helps process products with special shapes that traditional CNC machines cannot handle.
II. Comparison of CNC Machining and Traditional Machining
| Criteria | CNC machining | Traditional processing |
| Accuracy and stability | Very high, small error | Depends on the skill of the craftsman |
| Production speed and productivity | Fast, continuous operation | Slower, takes more time |
| The ability to machine complex details | Machining extremely complex details | Limitations with complex designs |
| Level of automation | Completely automatic | Manual, dependent on humans |
| Labor cost | Reduction through automation | High, needs many skilled workers. |
| Waste of materials | Minimize waste, optimize cutting | Wasted a lot due to mistakes. |

- Easily execute high-difficulty details with small tolerance requirements.
- Well-suited for industries that require high precision such as aerospace, automotive, and medical.
4. Reduce Labor Costs and Technical Errors
- CNC machines operate automatically, reducing dependence on the skills of mechanical workers.
- Limit errors during the processing, reduce the rate of defective products.
- Saving raw materials through more precise cutting.
5. Increase Automation and Efficient Production Management
- Integrating smart control technology helps monitor the production process.
- Support connecting with the production management software system (ERP, MES).
- Easily program, adjust, and monitor CNC machine productivity remotely.
6. Occupational Safety and a Better Working Environment
- Minimize direct contact with cutting tools and hot metal workpieces.
- Reduce noise and vibration compared to traditional machining methods.
- The cooling and dust extraction system helps ensure a safe working environment.
