You talking about a machine to make gears? Simple, hobbing is no different than thread cutting on a lathe. It is a form of indexed machining.
CNC utilizes dimensional control. |

Two are completely different terms. You could have a CNC controlled hobbing machine...
CNC means Computer Numerical Control. Basically this means a computer controls machine movement based on numbers input into the system. Hobbing machines typically make gears. They can be mechanically actuated or electrically controlled. |

Great site, thanks! I'm actually in the business of providing funding for machinery but I want to know more about the industry so I can make sure I'm acting in the client's interest when I make recommendations. |
