CNC Routing
Figure 33 Axis orientation for Router
Figure 34 Axis orientation for Lathe. Note that the right hand rule applies here also.
CNC machines are often described by the number of axes that are controlled.
A laser cutter would be classed as a 2-Axis device as motion is only controlled
in the X and Y axes.
A CNC lathe is a 2-Axis where the tool is driven along the Z and X axes.
A router would be a 3-Axis machine as motion is possible in X, Y and Z axes.
