How to Process a Part with Mill-Turn Technology

mill-turn

Previously, CNC milling and CNC turning were carried out on separate machines – a milling machine and a turning machine, respectively. However, as technology advances, these two processes are combined into a single machine. Mill-turn technology combines milling and turning operations. Turning-milling machining uses this technology. Even with modern technology and a time-saving mill-turn method, […]
