CNC turning
CNC turning is one of the most modern methods of producing elements using the chip machining method, which, among its many advantages, allows for high repeatability and maximum reduction of production time. CNC turning has developed very strongly in the area of large and medium-series production. In this process, computerized numerical controlled devices are used – hence the name CNC. Over the many years of work on a large number of projects related to turning, the Marxam Project company has gathered a lot of production experience. This allows our customers to entrust us with their needs in the field of machining.
Milling machinist is a person who must stand out with manual skills, precision, responsibility and patience. Teamwork is also very important, because the work performed by the miller is always a part of a larger production process.
In addition to the turning process, milling requires increased attention and rigorous observance of the basics of work safety – the specificity of work means that the lack of due caution may result in a dangerous accident.
Thanks to milling, things such as threads, profiles, grooves, spindles, gears can be created in materials such as metal, wood or plastic.

What is CNC turning and what does it involve?
CNC turning is a process used for modeling materials to obtain elements with spherical shapes, e.g. cones, balls or cylinders. Thanks to this technology, we can obtain elements with very complex geometry. CNC turning can be internal or external – the use of this method of subtractive processing is useful for producing, among others, underwater pipeline connectors, medical screws used in orthopedics, pushers, car engine piston pins or lever axles.
A characteristic feature of turning is that it is used to process a product that is in motion – here the tool is stationary.
The main types of turning are:
- Transverse turning
- Longitudinal turning
At Marxam Project, we can handle any turning technique to obtain the desired effect.
Application of CNC turning
CNC turning is a popular process that is used in many industries and basically with all materials used in production. It can be easily used for materials such as:
- Stainless steel
- Structural steel
- Aluminum
- Copper
- Brass
- Plastics
- Wood
Therefore, machining using modern CNC devices is recommended in a huge number of industries, including: automotive, rail, marine, electronics, aviation, furniture, catering, construction and plumbing.
Marxam Project has extensive experience gained in cooperation with companies operating in many different industries. This guarantees the possibility of implementing various projects. We encourage cooperation in the field of small, medium or large serial production. Our extensive experience can also help in the preparation and implementation of production prototypes.
Benefits of CNC turning
CNC turning, like milling, is one of the most popular metalworking processes. The huge number of benefits it offers makes it a popular choice for many different companies in various industries. These advantages include:
- High accuracy – Achieving high accuracy and repeatability of manufactured elements is possible thanks to the use of numerically controlled machines.
- Wide application – This method can be used in a wide range of industries and with many different, often different, types of materials. From plastics to steel; from the furniture industry to the aviation industry.
- Flexibility – Automation of this technology allows for very high flexibility of the obtained elements, which in turn allows for quick changes on the production line.
- Repeatability – Using this process allows for high repeatability of manufactured elements, which is particularly important in medium and large-scale production, in which every error means measurable financial losses.
- Speed - Compared to conventional turning, through the use of numerically controlled machines, CNC turning allows for a higher production speed than is the case with conventional turning. This is especially important in large and urgent projects.
Factors influencing CNC turning
The quality, speed and accuracy of CNC turning, like any metalworking process, depends on a large number of external factors. Some of them will have a direct impact on the lead time and cost, while others can significantly impede the use of this method. These factors include, among others:
- Material type - The choice of a specific type of material will affect the selected parameters and specific cutting devices. Different properties of a specific alloy will require a different approach to its processing and the use of tools with different material and utility parameters.
- Machines and technologies used for processing - Depending on the detailed parameters of the project, it will be necessary to use different technologies and devices. Their correct selection is the basis for achieving the best possible effects.
- Cutting parameters - The selected cutting parameters will have a direct impact on the quality of the manufactured product and on the machine itself. Their incorrect selection may cause faster wear of the blades and will also have a negative impact on the device itself.
- Production volume - CNC turning is ideal for medium and large-scale production. In the case of individual products, conventional machining may be more cost-effective, as it allows for greater personalization of the element in a shorter time.
- Environmental factors – Ensuring appropriate environmental parameters such as humidity or temperature during the machining process allows for minimizing deformations that may occur in the material and avoiding quality problems.
- Tolerance – The tolerance expected by the customer affects the selection of manufacturing technology and has a direct impact on the project implementation time. It also requires appropriate selection of machine parameters. Greater accuracy requires precise calibrations and appropriately selected cutting speeds, which may extend the order time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the CNC turning process?
CNC turning is a machining method, which, through the use of numerically controlled machines, allows for the removal of excess material with sufficiently high accuracy based on strictly defined parameters.
What materials can be used in this process?
This process allows for the processing of a wide range of materials. In particular, metals such as stainless steel, structural steel, aluminum, copper, but also many plastics, wood and more.
What are the advantages of CNC turning over conventional turning?
Compared to conventional turning, CNC turning works great where precision, repeatability and production speed are needed.
What is the difference between turning and CNC milling?
The fundamental difference between turning and CNC milling is that in turning, the workpiece is in motion and the cutting tools remain in one place. In milling, it is the other way around – the object is stationary and the machine tools rotate around it.
How much does the CNC turning process cost?
The cost depends, as always, on the details of the project. These details include, among others, parameters such as: type of material, tolerance and production volume. After knowing all of them, we will be able to present an accurate cost estimate.
Do you offer assistance in selecting specific project parameters?
Absolutely. Our experience allows us to help and support in selecting all project parameters to achieve the best possible effect.
