Computer numerical control (CNC) is programmed code that represents instructions for precise movements to be carried out by machines. Indirectly, this code defines how to automatically create, produce, or transform a virtual object into a real one.
Based on this definition, a CNC machine must interact with a computer equipped with software that transforms numerical code into Cartesian coordinates. This allows the machine to work with a high degree of precision, just like a robot.
A CNC machine transforms raw material into a finished model through different methods, either by adding (additive) or removing (subtractive) material. The available techniques depend on the type of machine
