Precision Machining with GreatLight CNC Machining Factory
In the realm of precision parts machining and customization, the role of CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining is indispensable. But a common question arises: How many zero points are used in CNC machining?
Understanding Zero Points in CNC Machining
Zero point, also known as the origin point, serves as the reference point for all coordinates in CNC machining. It is crucial for accurate positioning and movement of the cutting tool. Typically, there are three types of zero points used in CNC machining:
Machine Zero: This is the default zero point set by the machine manufacturer. It is usually located at a fixed position on the machine tool, such as the corner of the worktable or the spindle nose.
Workpiece Zero: Also known as the programming zero, this point is set by the programmer according to the actual position of the workpiece. It is the reference point for all dimensions and movements in the program.
Reference Zero: This point is used for tool setting and is usually set by the operator during the tool setting process. It ensures that the tool can accurately reach the programmed position.
