1. Conventional CNC Turning
Conventional CNC turning is the most common type. It uses a standard lathe machine controlled by a computer. Operators input specifications into the system, which then guides the cutting tools. This method is suitable for producing simple cylindrical shapes. It works well for small to medium production runs.

2. CNC Swiss Turning
CNC Swiss turning is another specialized method. It originated from Swiss watchmaking. This type utilizes a sliding headstock. The material is fed through a guide bushing, which stabilizes it during the process.

3. CNC Vertical Turning
CNC vertical turning machines operate differently from traditional lathes. In this setup, the workpiece stands vertically. The cutting tools approach from above. This orientation allows for efficient chip removal.

4. CNC Horizontal Turning
CNC horizontal turning is the counterpart to vertical turning. In this case, the workpiece is positioned horizontally. The cutting tools move along the X and Z axes. This setup is versatile and allows for various operations.

5. CNC Multi-Axis Turning
CNC multi-axis turning machines offer advanced capabilities. These machines can rotate the workpiece around multiple axes. As a result, they can create complex geometries and intricate designs.

6. CNC Turning with Live Tools
CNC turning with live tools combines turning and milling operations. This type uses a lathe with rotating tools. These tools can perform additional machining tasks during the turning process.

7. CNC Turning for Hard Materials
CNC turning for hard materials focuses on machining tough substances. This type uses specialized tools and techniques to handle materials like titanium and hardened steel.

In conclusion, CNC turning encompasses various types, each tailored for specific applications. From conventional to advanced multi-axis turning, each method offers distinct advantages.
