CNC TURNING
A Subtractive process that typically creates round or cylindrical shapes by spinning the part at high speeds and removing material with the cutting tool.
CNC MILLING
A subtractive process in which the workpiece can be rotated or moved, and the tools can be stationary. In other cases, the tools move, and the workpiece is stationary. Another option is for both the tools and the workpiece to move.
THICK, THIN, BRIGHT, SATIN & MILL FINISH
