Milling uses rotating cutting tools that move around the part removing material to create a variety of features. Turning on a lathe spins the part and moves static cutting tools along to create cylindrical profiles. Drilling is the most basic process and can be performed on both mills and lathes to drill round holes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our CNC machines use computers to control the movement of the machine to create parts more effectively than possible by hand. The Bechtel Center also offers 5-axis milling and live tooling turning capabilities to allow more complex parts to be made.<\/p>\n\n\n<div  class=\"purdue-home-buttons \">\n    <ul
