advantages of CNC machines

*Advantages of CNC machines :-

1. Greater accuracy of job is achieved
2. High Repeatability and improved product quality.
3. Less operator skill is required to run CNC machine.
4. Better machine utilization hence reduced idle time.
5. High production rate as speed, feed , depth of cut are optimum for best quality.
6. Lower tooling cost, per piece in mass production.
7. Jigs and fixtures cost can be reduced.
8. Reduced cycle time.
9. Better tool life and machinability.
10. Less scrap due to consistent accuracy, less error.
11. Excellent reliability as dimension are based on programs.
12. Reduced in-process inventory of parts in process.
13. Design changes are possible. Any change in design is feasible at lowest cost.
14. Productivity can be improved to great extent.
15. Tool setup time can be reduced.
16. Most suitable for continuous and better production.
17. Program can be stored and used again when required.
18. Optimum speed and feed for surface finish can used.
