Nut spot welding is a process where nuts or fasteners are joined onto metal parts. To practice spot welding, electrodes with pointed tips are used as the welding tool to create opposing forces that allow metal parts to be heated and joined. The shape of the electrode may differ based on the current, heat generation and weld nugget size, etc.

With CNC, the entire work cycle from loading the workpiece to unloading the manufactured part is automated. The human factor is included only when the CNC system needs to be adjusted or when the press machine needs to be maintained or repaired. In general, the goal of implementing an automatic press in a production line is to minimize the errors that are made by human operators, reduce the tooling wear and machinery maintenance, and ultimately improve the productivity of the process.

When it comes to the orientation of the milling machine, it can be either vertical or horizontal. The vertical milling machine refers to the vertically mounted spindle, which had the cutting tools cut travel through the workpieces with up and down movements. As for the horizontal milling machine, the spindle is horizontally mounted and the cutting tools are allowed to cut from the above or the sides of the workpieces.
