Rough machining vs finishing machining

In CNC machining, two fundamental processes play a pivotal role in shaping the final product, roughing, and finishing.

Rough Machining as the name suggests, is employed to workpiece for the removal of material in bulk and shape it roughly to meet the desired form. The key feature of rough machining is its focus on productivity and high material removal rates. Roughing is followed by finishing which in CNC turning service involves the machining of a part to obtain a specific resolution.
