Did You Know?
The moderns CNC machine of today came about thanks to a man called John T.Parsons who after the second world war was involved in the manufacture of helicopter blades. Because these rotor blades needed precise machining he worked out that an early IBM computer could produce very accurate contour guides. Due to this success the air force offered him a contact to design a machine to automatically cut contours to manufacture wing sections for planes. The machine was very big and expensive but did a great job using a card reader and servo controls. It would not be until the start of the 60's that this new breed of machine would become more affordable thus allowing it to be used in a range of industries. That's the end of todays history lesson folks!
