At 62 RC we had trim sections in dies that would some times chip. We dropped down to 56-60 and the dies still trimmed the parts fine but didn't chip. CNC machining has taken the machine shop out of the hands of the Machinist and put it in the hands of the computer whiz. Sure cuts down on the cost of producing a big number of the same part. Once the programme is written you can go back to it at any time and make some more parts. I can remember when digital readout on the machines was a God send.
Now it is digital everything.
