What is CNC Machining?
CNC machine is commonly used in manufacturing and industrial production. But exactly what is CNC machining?
CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining is a kind of subtractive manufacturing process. In CNC manufacturing, the software control system issues commands to make the tool meet the required movements. In this process,various precision tools are used to remove layers of raw materials and make parts or products. Therefore, it can also be called cnc precision machining.
Types of CNC Machining
Three-axis CNC machining
The 3-axis machining is performed by straight lines to the axes X, Y, and Z.
Machining features: the cutting tool orientation remains constant during movement along the entire cutting path.
The 3-axis machining center has the advantages of high precision and high efficiency. It is commonly used to machine general parts, but it is more troublesome when machining complex workpieces, which may cause the workpiece to fail. Therefore, multi-axis simultaneous machining is the first choice when machining more complex workpieces.
Three-axis CNC machining
Five-axis CNC machining
Five-axis machining is the use of CNC to move parts or cutting tools on five different axes simultaneously, which can process very complex parts.
The remarkable feature of the five-axis linkage CNC machine tool is that it can complete the surface machining, and no special fixture is needed during machining, which greatly reduces the number of clamping and improves the machining accuracy, quality and efficiency. The five-axis machining center has unparalleled advantages in the processing of complex workpieces.
Five-axis CNC machining
CNC milling
CNC milling machine processing is based on the technical requirements of the shape, accuracy, size and surface roughness of the workpiece to determine the processing technology and processing parameters. Program the machining program into the controller and send the command to the servo. CNC milling machines can process parts with particularly complex contours or difficult to control dimensions, such as mold parts and housing parts. It has the advantages of strong adaptability, high processing precision, stable processing quality and high efficiency.
CNC turning
CNC turning is one of the most used machining methods in CNC machining. During CNC turning, the workpiece makes a rotary motion, and the tool moves in a straight line or a curve. While the tool tip moves relative to the workpiece, a certain workpiece material is removed to form a corresponding workpiece surface.
Applications of CNC Machining
Electronic Products
The full metal casing of 3C products is basically processed by CNC machine tools CNC. CNC has become a must-have for 3C enclosure manufacturers due to its high efficiency, high precision and stable processing quality.
Automobile
CNC machining plays an important role in the automotive industry. It can be said that most automotive parts are processed by CNC machining.
The advantages of CNC machining in automobile manufacturing include multi-axis linkage to obtain the tortuous machining of prototype machining; high precision and good product consistency; high degree of automation, resulting in low labor intensity; CNC also ensures simplicity and high efficiency.

The Toaster Project (2009)
Thomas Thwaites
The Toaster Project is an attempt to investigate and replicate the manufacture of a mass produced everyday object – a toaster – on an artisanal scale, aimed at revealing the nature of mass manufacturing. The designer, Thomas Thwaites, documented the process through video, a publication and by collecting all the elements that went into the production of the toaster, including the apparatus he created for the refining and manufacturing processes. This installation collects all of these objects, consisting of the apparatus, materials, final toaster, digital images, video and publication.
The Toaster Project highlights the complexity of everyday mass-manufactured objects and the invisible supply chains of the globalised economy which make their low-cost production possible. In 2008 Thwaites bought a toaster from the British high-street retailer Argos, manufactured in China and priced at £3.94, and deconstructed it into its individual components. He then attempted to reproduce these components himself, from elements sourced or produced by himself in the UK; the plastic for the shell, the steel for the inner frame, the nickel for the heating element, the mica for the thermal and electrical insulation, and the copper for the electrical wires. He documented his journeys around Britain to collect the base elements of the materials, from mining steel in the Forest of Dean, to collecting mica from the mountains of the west coast of Scotland and acidic water containing dissolved copper from the Isle of Anglesey. He also devised his own ways of attaining the final materials from these sources, including attempts such as a smelting furnace made of hairdryers and a chimney pot, and a mould for the plastic case carved out of a block of wood. This investigation into the production of what is now a very cheap and easy to acquire object reveals the impossibility of making such a product on a small, local scale. It exposes the social and environmental consequences, including the decline of Britain’s manufacturing industries and pollution of natural resources, as a result of the disposability of consumer culture. Thomas also reveals that the cost of making his toaster was £1187.54, based on his direct spending alone. The project is a key example of critical design, and one of the first to be discussed globally beyond the design sector.

Portland Works, Randall Street, Sheffield, 1877.
By JH Jenkinson.
For RF Mosley, cutlery manufacturer.
Grade ll* listed.
Portland Works is an extremely good and complete example of a large purpose-built integrated cutlery works dating largely from a single 1870s building phase with a well designed layout for this building type. The works was mechanised, with evidence for a steam engine, but there are also unpowered workshop ranges, illustrating the fact that Sheffield based its reputation on the supremacy of traditional methods. This type of complex is very distinctive to the industrial identity of Sheffield, which, at this time was known throughout the world as a centre of excellence in the manufacturing and processing of steel. Portland Works is an important survival which demonstrates the layout of such a complex, highlights the limited use of power in the cutlery manufacturing process, and retains both hand forges and steam grinding rooms, extremely rare survivals of building types related to specific processes, with probably fewer than five sites in Sheffield now retaining evidence of both. These characteristics, together with the degree of completeness of survival make this site of particular importance and justify its upgrading to Grade II*.

Advanced Additive Manufacturing for Hypersonic Aircraft
Utilizing new methods of fabrication and construction, make it possible to use additive manufacturing, dramatically reducing the time and costs of producing hypersonic platforms from missiles, aircraft, and space capable craft. Instead of aircraft being produced in piece, then bolted together; small platforms can be produced as a single unit and large platforms can be produces in large section and mated without bolting. These techniques include using exotic materials and advanced assembly processes, with an end result of streamlining the production costs and time for hypersonic aircraft; reducing months of assembly to weeks. Overall, this process greatly reduced the cost for producing hypersonic platforms. Even to such an extent that a Hellfire missile costs apx $100,000 but by utilizing our technologies, replacing it with a Mach 8-10 hypersonic missile of our physics/engineering and that missile would cost roughly $75,000 each delivered.
Materials used for these manufacturing processes are not disclosed, but overall, provides a foundation for extremely high stresses and thermodynamics, ideal for hypersonic platforms. This specific methodology and materials applications is many decades ahead of all known programs. Even to the extend of normalized space flight and re-entry, without concern of thermodynamic failure.
*Note, most entities that are experimenting with additive manufacturing for hypersonic aircraft, this makes it mainstream and standardized processes, which also applies for mass production.
What would normally be measured in years and perhaps a decade to go from drawing board to test flights, is reduced to singular months and ready for production within a year maximum.
Unified Turbine Based Combined Cycle (U-TBCC)
To date, the closest that NASA and industry have achieved for turbine based aircraft to fly at hypersonic velocities is by mounting a turbine into an aircraft and sharing the inlet with a scramjet or rocket based motor. Reaction Engines Sabre is not able to achieve hypersonic velocities and can only transition into a non air breathing rocket for beyond Mach 4.5
However, utilizing Unified Turbine Based Combine Cycle also known as U-TBCC, the two separate platforms are able to share a common inlet and the dual mode ramjet/scramjet is contained within the engine itself, which allows for a much smaller airframe footprint, thus engingeers are able to then design much higher performance aerial platforms for hypersonic flight, including the ability for constructing true single stage to orbit aircraft by utilizing a modification/version that allows for transition to outside atmosphere propulsion without any other propulsion platforms within the aircraft. By transitioning and developing aircraft to use Unified Turbine Based Combined Cycle, this propulsion system opens up new options to replace that airframe deficit for increased fuel capacity and/or payload.
Enhanced Dynamic Cavitation
Dramatically Increasing the efficiency of fuel air mixture for combustion processes at hypersonic velocities within scramjet propulsion platforms. The aspects of these processes are non disclosable.
Dynamic Scramjet Ignition Processes
For optimal scramjet ignition, a process known as Self Start is sought after, but in many cases if the platform becomes out of attitude, the scramjet will ignite. We have already solved this problem which as a result, a scramjet propulsion system can ignite at lower velocities, high velocities, at optimal attitude or not optimal attitude. It doesn't matter, it will ignite anyways at the proper point for maximum thrust capabilities at hypersonic velocities.
Hydrogen vs Kerosene Fuel Sources
Kerosene is an easy fuel to work with, and most western nations developing scramjet platforms use Kerosene for that fact. However, while kerosene has better thermal properties then Hydrogen, Hydrogen is a far superior fuel source in scramjet propulsion flight, do it having a much higher efficiency capability. Because of this aspect, in conjunction with our developments, it allows for a MUCH increased fuel to air mixture, combustion, thrust; and ability for higher speeds; instead of very low hypersonic velocities in the Mach 5-6 range. Instead, Mach 8-10 range, while we have begun developing hypersonic capabilities to exceed 15 in atmosphere within less then 5 years.
Conforming High Pressure Tank Technology for CNG and H2.
As most know in hypersonics, Hydrogen is a superior fuel source, but due to the storage abilities, can only be stored in cylinders thus much less fuel supply. Not anymore, we developed conforming high pressure storage technology for use in aerospace, automotive sectors, maritime, etc; which means any overall shape required for 8,000+ PSI CNG or Hydrogen. For hypersonic platforms, this means the ability to store a much larger volume of hydrogen vs cylinders.
As an example, X-43 flown by Nasa which flew at Mach 9.97. The fuel source was Hydrogen, which is extremely more volatile and combustible then kerosene (JP-7), via a cylinder in the main body. If it had used our technology, that entire section of the airframe would had been an 8,000 PSI H2 tank, which would had yielded 5-6 times the capacity. While the X-43 flew 11 seconds under power at Mach 9.97, at 6 times the fuel capacity would had yielded apx 66 seconds of fuel under power at Mach 9.97. If it had flew slower, around Mach 6, same principles applied would had yielded apx 500 seconds of fuel supply under power (slower speeds required less energy to maintain).
Enhanced Fuel Mixture During Shock Train Interaction
Normally, fuel injection is conducted at the correct insertion point within the shock train for maximum burn/combustion. Our methodologies differ, since almost half the fuel injection is conducted PRE shock train within the isolator, so at the point of isolator injection the fuel enhances the combustion process, which then requires less fuel injection to reach the same level of thrust capabilities.
Improved Bow Shock Interaction
Smoother interaction at hypersonic velocities and mitigating heat/stresses for beyond Mach 6 thermodynamics, which extraordinarily improves Type 3, 4, and 5 shock interaction.
6,000+ Fahrenheit Thermal Resistance
To date, the maximum thermal resistance was tested at AFRL in the spring of 2018, which resulted in a 3,200F thermal resistance for a short duration. This technology, allows for normalized hypersonic thermal resistance of 3,000-3,500F sustained, and up to 6,500F resistance for short endurance, ie 90 seconds or less. 10-20 minute resistance estimate approximately 4,500F +/- 200F.
*** This technology advancement also applies to Aerospike rocket engines, in which it is common for Aerospike's to exceed 4,500-5,000F temperatures, which results in the melting of the reversed bell housing. That melting no longer ocurrs, providing for stable combustion to ocurr for the entire flight envelope
Scramjet Propulsion Side Wall Cooling
With old technologies, side wall cooling is required for hypersonic flight and scramjet propulsion systems, otherwise the isolator and combustion regions of a scramjet would melt, even using advanced ablatives and ceramics, due to their inability to cope with very high temperatures. Using technology we have developed for very high thermodynamics and high stresses, side wall cooling is no longer required, thus removing that variable from the design process and focusing on improved ignition processes and increasing net thrust values.
Lower Threshold for Hypersonic Ignition
Active and adaptive flight dynamics, resulting in the ability for scramjet ignition at a much lower velocity, ie within ramjet envelope, between Mach 2-4, and seamless transition from supersonic to hypersonic flight, ie supersonic ramjet (scramjet). This active and dynamic aspect, has a wide variety of parameters for many flight dynamics, velocities, and altitudes; which means platforms no longer need to be engineered for specific altitude ranges or preset velocities, but those parameters can then be selected during launch configuration and are able to adapt actively in flight.
Dramatically Improved Maneuvering Capabilities at Hypersonic Velocities
Hypersonic vehicles, like their less technologically advanced brethren, use large actuator and the developers hope those controls surfaces do not disintegrate in flight. In reality, it is like rolling the dice, they may or may not survive, hence another reason why the attempt to keep velocities to Mach 6 or below. We have shrunken down control actuators while almost doubling torque and response capabilities specifically for hypersonic dynamics and extreme stresses involved, which makes it possible for maximum input authority for Mach 10 and beyond.
Paradigm Shift in Control Surface Methodologies, Increasing Control Authority (Internal Mechanical Applications)
To date, most control surfaces for hypersonic missile platforms still use fins, similar to lower speed conventional missiles, and some using ducted fins. This is mostly due to lack of comprehension of hypersonic velocities in their own favor. Instead, the body itself incorporates those control surfaces, greatly enhancing the airframe strength, opening up more space for hardware and fuel capacity; while simultaneously enhancing the platforms maneuvering capabilities.
A scramjet missile can then fly like conventional missile platforms, and not straight and level at high altitudes, losing velocity on it's decent trajectory to target. Another added benefit to this aspect, is the ability to extend range greatly, so if anyone elses hypersonic missile platform were developed for 400 mile range, falling out of the sky due to lack of glide capabilities; our platforms can easily reach 600+ miles, with minimal glide deceleration.

Dynamic Scramjet Ignition Processes
For optimal scramjet ignition, a process known as Self Start is sought after, but in many cases if the platform becomes out of attitude, the scramjet will ignite. We have already solved this problem which as a result, a scramjet propulsion system can ignite at lower velocities, high velocities, at optimal attitude or not optimal attitude. It doesn't matter, it will ignite anyways at the proper point for maximum thrust capabilities at hypersonic velocities.
Hydrogen vs Kerosene Fuel Sources
Kerosene is an easy fuel to work with, and most western nations developing scramjet platforms use Kerosene for that fact. However, while kerosene has better thermal properties then Hydrogen, Hydrogen is a far superior fuel source in scramjet propulsion flight, do it having a much higher efficiency capability. Because of this aspect, in conjunction with our developments, it allows for a MUCH increased fuel to air mixture, combustion, thrust; and ability for higher speeds; instead of very low hypersonic velocities in the Mach 5-6 range. Instead, Mach 8-10 range, while we have begun developing hypersonic capabilities to exceed 15 in atmosphere within less then 5 years.
Conforming High Pressure Tank Technology for CNG and H2.
As most know in hypersonics, Hydrogen is a superior fuel source, but due to the storage abilities, can only be stored in cylinders thus much less fuel supply. Not anymore, we developed conforming high pressure storage technology for use in aerospace, automotive sectors, maritime, etc; which means any overall shape required for 8,000+ PSI CNG or Hydrogen. For hypersonic platforms, this means the ability to store a much larger volume of hydrogen vs cylinders.
As an example, X-43 flown by Nasa which flew at Mach 9.97. The fuel source was Hydrogen, which is extremely more volatile and combustible then kerosene (JP-7), via a cylinder in the main body. If it had used our technology, that entire section of the airframe would had been an 8,000 PSI H2 tank, which would had yielded 5-6 times the capacity. While the X-43 flew 11 seconds under power at Mach 9.97, at 6 times the fuel capacity would had yielded apx 66 seconds of fuel under power at Mach 9.97. If it had flew slower, around Mach 6, same principles applied would had yielded apx 500 seconds of fuel supply under power (slower speeds required less energy to maintain).
Enhanced Fuel Mixture During Shock Train Interaction
Normally, fuel injection is conducted at the correct insertion point within the shock train for maximum burn/combustion. Our methodologies differ, since almost half the fuel injection is conducted PRE shock train within the isolator, so at the point of isolator injection the fuel enhances the combustion process, which then requires less fuel injection to reach the same level of thrust capabilities.
Improved Bow Shock Interaction
Smoother interaction at hypersonic velocities and mitigating heat/stresses for beyond Mach 6 thermodynamics, which extraordinarily improves Type 3, 4, and 5 shock interaction.
6,000+ Fahrenheit Thermal Resistance
To date, the maximum thermal resistance was tested at AFRL in the spring of 2018, which resulted in a 3,200F thermal resistance for a short duration. This technology, allows for normalized hypersonic thermal resistance of 3,000-3,500F sustained, and up to 6,500F resistance for short endurance, ie 90 seconds or less. 10-20 minute resistance estimate approximately 4,500F +/- 200F.
*** This technology advancement also applies to Aerospike rocket engines, in which it is common for Aerospike's to exceed 4,500-5,000F temperatures, which results in the melting of the reversed bell housing. That melting no longer ocurrs, providing for stable combustion to ocurr for the entire flight envelope
Scramjet Propulsion Side Wall Cooling
With old technologies, side wall cooling is required for hypersonic flight and scramjet propulsion systems, otherwise the isolator and combustion regions of a scramjet would melt, even using advanced ablatives and ceramics, due to their inability to cope with very high temperatures. Using technology we have developed for very high thermodynamics and high stresses, side wall cooling is no longer required, thus removing that variable from the design process and focusing on improved ignition processes and increasing net thrust values.
Lower Threshold for Hypersonic Ignition
Active and adaptive flight dynamics, resulting in the ability for scramjet ignition at a much lower velocity, ie within ramjet envelope, between Mach 2-4, and seamless transition from supersonic to hypersonic flight, ie supersonic ramjet (scramjet). This active and dynamic aspect, has a wide variety of parameters for many flight dynamics, velocities, and altitudes; which means platforms no longer need to be engineered for specific altitude ranges or preset velocities, but those parameters can then be selected during launch configuration and are able to adapt actively in flight.
Dramatically Improved Maneuvering Capabilities at Hypersonic Velocities
Hypersonic vehicles, like their less technologically advanced brethren, use large actuator and the developers hope those controls surfaces do not disintegrate in flight. In reality, it is like rolling the dice, they may or may not survive, hence another reason why the attempt to keep velocities to Mach 6 or below. We have shrunken down control actuators while almost doubling torque and response capabilities specifically for hypersonic dynamics and extreme stresses involved, which makes it possible for maximum input authority for Mach 10 and beyond.
Paradigm Shift in Control Surface Methodologies, Increasing Control Authority (Internal Mechanical Applications)
To date, most control surfaces for hypersonic missile platforms still use fins, similar to lower speed conventional missiles, and some using ducted fins. This is mostly due to lack of comprehension of hypersonic velocities in their own favor. Instead, the body itself incorporates those control surfaces, greatly enhancing the airframe strength, opening up more space for hardware and fuel capacity; while simultaneously enhancing the platforms maneuvering capabilities.
A scramjet missile can then fly like conventional missile platforms, and not straight and level at high altitudes, losing velocity on it's decent trajectory to target. Another added benefit to this aspect, is the ability to extend range greatly, so if anyone elses hypersonic missile platform were developed for 400 mile range, falling out of the sky due to lack of glide capabilities; our platforms can easily reach 600+ miles, with minimal glide deceleration.

Organic solar cells have the potential to be produced inexpensively and relatively inexpensively through sustainable manufacturing processes. Moreover, they are applicable to a variety of surfaces because of their flexibility. This goal of this proposal is to increase the lifetime of such cells, which currently degrade too rapidly and have lower efficiency for energy conversion than do inorganic solar cells.
The chief “pet-friendly” ingredient in HealthyTouch carpet is a built-in treatment called Magic Fresh. This all-natural, non-allergenic treatment, applied during the manufacturing process, reduces common household odors in the home. Made similar to baking soda and bonded to the carpet fibers and backing, Magic Fresh rids homes of a “doggy smell” or “cat smell” and helps keep the home fresh smelling for the life of the carpet. Magic Fresh is called “doggone amazing” because the carpet does the work of maintaining a fresh smelling home – not air fresheners, deodorizers, or candles.

"The Making of a Crown Glass Disk
Five craftsmen were involved in this process: The first glassmaker gathers glass on the blow pipe in several steps and then blows the glob of glass into a sphere and rolls it into a cylindrical shape (1). An assistant takes the blow pipe and passes it onto a blower; he heats the glass, blows it, and flattens one side of the form (2). A helper attaches a pontil, a solid iron rod, to the glass and the blow pipe is cracked off the piece (3). The hole created by this break is used to enlarge the glass form into a crown-like shape. After intensively heating the piece, an experienced glass blower spins the softened glass into a circular sheet (5). This is placed in a bed of sand. The pontil is then removed and this leaves a characteristic mark in the middle of the disk, the bull's eye."
[Don't believe anyone who tries to tell you that you can observe the slow motion of glass in the increased thickness at the bottom of old panes of glass. Its not true- sometimes these old panes are thicker at the bottom, but sometimes you can find them thicker at the top- the difference is a consequence of the manufacturing process and not of any flow process in the solid glass].
