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. Metal lathe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_lathe

   CNC lathe with milling capabilities An example turned vase and view of the tool turret. Computer numerical controlled (CNC) lathes are rapidly replacing the older production lathes (multispindle, etc.) due to their ease of set up, operation, repeatability and accuracy. A CNC Turning Lathe is a Computer Controlled piece of machinery.

4. Canned cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canned_cycle

   The operation of a CNC machine tool is typically controlled by a "part program" written a language known as G-code. [3]Canned cycles are similar in concept to functions in a traditional computer language, and can be compared also to G-code macros.

5. Machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machining

   Milling operations are operations where the cutting tool with cutting edges along its cylindrical face are brought against a workpiece to remove material in the profile of the spinning tools shaft and lower edge. [7] Milling machines are the principal machine tool used in milling. Advanced CNC machines may combine lathe and milling operations.

6. Part program - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Part_program

   The part program is a sequence of instruction that describe the work that is to be done to a part. Typically these instructions are generated in Computer-aided manufacturing software and are then fed into the computer numerical control (CNC) software on the machines, such as drills, lathes, mills, grinders, routers, that are performing work on the part.
