1. The document discusses precision machining processes for manufacturing precision mechanical components. It describes three main methods for machining profiled cross-section parts: direct forming, cutting motion synthesis, and special processing methods. Cutting motion synthesis methods like milling, turning, and grinding are most commonly used for complex shapes. 2. For lathe machining of profiled precision cross-section parts, the document outlines three main methods: mechanical motion synthesis to achieve turning trajectories, shape-imitating processing using cam control of the tool, and CNC turning. CNC turning has the highest efficiency and precision and can automatically machine various shapes just by adjusting the CNC program.
