INTRODUCTION CNC turning produces parts by "turning" rod material and feeding a cutting tool into the turning material. In CNC turning the cutter can be fed into the rotating workpiece at a variety of angles and many tool shapes can be used. CNC turning provides an economical way to make parts that are commonly symmetrical about an axis of revolution (e.g. a chess pawn). Shapes that can be made using CNC turning include a variety of plain, taper, contour, fillet and radius profiles plus threaded surfaces. Although many turned parts use a single axis of revolution, there can be multiple axis to allow more flexibility (e.g. camshafts). CNC turning can be combined with CNC milling and other processes to make more diverse shapes. CNC turning can shape most rigid materials such as: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •
PROCEDURE OF CUTTING PROCESS OF WORKPIECE BY USING CNC TURNING MACHINE
Procedure To Start The CNC Turning Machine 1.
On main switch power.

CONCLUSION
As a conclusion, I have learned a lot of things about this CNC turning machine. I knew how to handle this machine and its safety precautions. This machine is quite easy to handle and I very excited when handle it. This knowledge is very useful to me and I hope that I can apply it when I work one day.
