Both CNC machining and CNC lathes use CNC technology for machining, but they have some differences in machining range, machining accuracy, equipment structure, and other aspects.

Firstly, CNC machining is a widely used machining method, including various machining equipment such as CNC lathes, CNC milling machines, CNC drilling machines, etc. And CNC lathe is a specific equipment in CNC machining, mainly used for machining rotary parts such as shafts and disks. Therefore, the processing range of CNC machining is wider, including various shapes of parts such as flat, three-dimensional, and rotating bodies.

Secondly, there are differences in machining accuracy between CNC machining and CNC lathes. Numerical control machining usually has high machining accuracy and can meet high machining requirements, such as machining high-precision and high surface quality parts. Although CNC lathes can also perform high-precision machining, their machining accuracy is usually affected by factors such as equipment structure and cutting tools, and may not be as high as other CNC machining equipment.

In addition, there are differences in equipment structure between CNC machining and CNC lathes. Numerical control machining equipment usually includes machine tool body, numerical control system, servo system, tool system and other parts, with a relatively complex structure. CNC lathes, on the other hand, are relatively simple and mainly consist of a bed, spindle, feed system, tool holder, and other parts. They are usually used for machining rotary parts.

In short, although both CNC machining and CNC lathes use CNC technology for machining, they have some differences in machining range, machining accuracy, equipment structure, and other aspects. Suitable processing methods and equipment need to be selected based on specific processing requirements.
