CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control. It refers to a type of milling or manufacturing machine that is computer guided, with the ability to change tools, bits, blades, or tips.
A CNC operator, as the name suggests operates a CNC (computer numerical control) machine, usually this includes loading and unloading workpieces, checking workpieces, setting program datums, setting up jigs and fixtures, replacing worn or broken tooling, cleaning swarf from the machine and basic machine maintenance. Some operators also do programming although this is usually limited to altering a program to suit the tools being used; for example altering a program to give the correct drill depth after changing the drill. The exact duties of a CNC operator varies from one machine shop to another. A CNC programmer actually writes the program that runs the machine although this job is increasingly done by software.
The two major categories of machining are "conventional maching" and "CNC (computer numerical control) machining." The actual metal cutting process is the same. The difference is in how the tool path is controlled as it cuts the workpiece. "Conventional machining" (also known as "manual machining") is generally regarded as using manually controlled machines, particularly lathes, mills and drill presses. The tool moves around the work by mechanical controls that are manually controlled. "CNC machining" is generally regarded as using lathes and mills (and some other machine types) in which all tool and workpiece motion is controlled by a computer.

Full form of cnc is computer numerical control.
CNC, pertaining to industrial machinery, stands for Computer Numerically controlled machinery. The industry, in fact, everything you see, can hold, everything is manufactured on a machine. Most of which are CNC. CNC'sare basically lathes, mills with a computer control on it to load programs.
The abbreviation CNC stands for computer numerical control, and refers specifically to a computer that reads instructions and drives a machine tool, a powered mechanical device typically used to fabricate components by the selective removal of material. CNC does numerically directed interpolation of a cutting tool in the work envelope of a machine. The operating parameters of the CNC can be altered via a software load program.

CNC Machine Shop is not the name of a company but a description of any company that is able to or has a milling machine that uses computer numerical control (CNC) to direct production.

The objectives of numerical control are to make more efficient handling of tasks through programmable automation. The first numerical control machines were built in the 1940s and 1950s and have evolved into the machine tools seen today.
working principal of cnc:cnc is computerized technoogy..... By controlling the relative movements between the tool and the work piece geometrical shapes are machined. Control of these relative movements through coded letters numbers is known as Numerical Control of machine tools. NC is simply a way of electronically controlling the operations of a machine. In conventional machine operator directly controlling the machine functions. Where as in NC machine a separate media which is in between machine and operator is controlling the machine functions. These NC machines do not have any memory of their own and hence capable of only executing a simple block of information fed to it at a time. Hardware automation gave way to computer controlled automation in manufacturing process. Computer numerical control is the term used when the control system of an NC includes a computer. The availability of a dedicated computer permits new control features to be made available on CNC machines.
