CNC – Computer Numerical Control – Taking digitized data, a computer and CAM program is used to control, automate, and monitor the movements of a machine. The machine can be a milling machine, lathe, router, welder, grinder, laser or waterjet cutter, sheet metal stamping machine, robot, or many other types of machines. For larger industrial machines, the computer is generally an on-board dedicated controller. But for more hobbyist types of machines, or with some retrofits, the computer can be an external PC. The CNC controller works together with a series of motors and drive components to move and control the machine axes, executing the programmed motions. On the industrial machines there is usually a sophisticated feedback system that constantly monitors and adjusts the cutter's speed and position.

Desktop CNC – There are many smaller modelmaker-hobbyist style desktop CNC machines. In general these are lighter weight, less rigid, less precise, slower, and less expensive than their industrial counterparts, but can do well for machining objects out of softer materials such as plastics, foam, and wax. Some desktop machines may run a lot like a printer. Others have their own closed command system and perhaps even dedicated CAM software. A few will also accept standard G-code as input. Some industrial standard desktop machines do exist with dedicated controllers for doing precise small work.
