How many types of machining are there in present industry?

With the rapid development of modern machining processing and rapid development of mechanical processing technology, many advanced mechanical processing technology methods have gradually emerged, such as micro-machining technology, rapid prototyping technology, and fine and ultra-fine processing technology. With the development of Micro/Nano Science and Technology , micromachines, which are characterized by their own small dimensions or extremely small operating scales, have become a high-tech technology for people to understand and transform the microscopic world.
Because micromachines can stop operations in a small space without disturbing the working environment and objects, they have broad application potential in aerospace, fine instruments, biomedicine, etc., and have become an important means of nanotechnology research. It has been highly valued and listed as the first of the key technologies of the 21st century.

Rapid prototyping technology was developed in the 20th century, and samples or parts can be quickly manufactured based on CAD models. It is a method of data accumulation processing and manufacturing, that is, three-dimensional forming is completed through the orderly accumulation of data. Rapid prototyping technology integrates modern scientific and technological achievements such as CNC technology, data technology, laser technology and CAD technology, and is an important part of modern advanced machining technology.

Fine and ultra-fine processing is an important part of modern machining and manufacturing technology, and it is one of the important indicators for weighing the level of a country’s high-tech manufacturing industry. Since the 1960s, with the development of computer and information technology, higher requirements have been put forward for manufacturing technology, not only requesting extremely high size, shape and position accuracy, but also requesting extremely high appearance quality. It is precisely under such market demand that ultra-fine processing technology has been rapidly developed, and various processes and new methods have emerged from time to time.
