Mini CNC Engraving Machine
A computer numerical controlled, or CNC, machine is an automated tool for fabricating an object such as a mold or an industrial part in an assembly line. The machine works through instructions from a design made in a computer-aided design, or CAD, software tool. A CNC engraving machine for precision engraving works on the same principle, but just on a much smaller scale. These tools are used for applications such as circuit board printing, firearm engraving, gun serialization, three-dimensional engraving, aluminum machining and the production of electronics. Common materials used for this type of engraving include plastics, graphite, ceramics or almost any nonferrous material.
