In the process of CNC machining aluminum, there are many causes for the deformation of aluminum parts, which are related to material, shape, cutters, machining process, and more. In this article, we are going to present some effective methods to prevent part deformation in aluminum machining. How......

In CNC machining, the actual position of the tool is often different from the theoretical position of the tool when programming. This is why we need to modify the program according to the tool position again. However, modifying the program is complicated, and easy to make mistakes. Therefore, cutter compensation is a function to compensate for the difference between the actual position of the tool and the required position. What are the different methods to do the cutter compensation and what g-codes are used? ......
