CNC Lathe Machining vs. Milling: How to Choose the Right Process for Your Parts
Ideally, every part would be designed with a specific manufacturing process in mind. However, in practice, we frequently see drawings where a prismatic component is forced onto a lathe, or a perfectly cylindrical shaft is slated for a 4-axis mill. This "mismatch" between design and process is often the root...
