CNC machining has the following advantages:

• A large reduction in the number of tooling, processing complex shapes of parts does not require complex tooling. If you want to change the shape and size of the part, you only need to modify the part processing program, which is suitable for new product development and modification.
• The quality is stable, the precision is high, the repeating precision is high, and it is suitable for the processing requirements of the aircraft.
• The production efficiency is high in multiple varieties and small batch production, which can reduce the time of production preparation, machine tool adjustment, and process inspection, and reduce the cutting time due to the use of the best cutting amount.
• It can process complex products that are difficult to machine by conventional methods, and even can process unprocessable parts.

The disadvantage of CNC machining is that the machine tool is expensive and requires a high level of maintenance staff.
