Overview

Machining is a manufacturing process that involves the controlled removal of material to create a desired shape or part, commonly used in metal, wood, plastic, and composite materials. This subtractive manufacturing technique utilizes machine tools, in contrast to additive manufacturing methods like 3D printing. Machining is a crucial process in the production of many metal products and is typically performed by skilled machinists in machine shops, often using computer numerical control (CNC) systems.
