Types of wood carving. Differences. Carved products on CNC machines.

The art of wood carving is an ancient craft used to create coziness. It was used to decorate houses, household utensils, furniture, cornices, roofs, platbands. Thus, we can say that wood carving is an integral part of the process of home decoration and can be used on different products.

In our time, carved products are no less popular. They are significantly modified. Instead of solid wood in modern interiors, MDF is more often used. Although solid wood is still relevant and valuable. Carved decor most often decorates furniture and decor, and also with its help all sorts of panels, wall panels, original carved partitions are created. Such products are often painted in solid colors, or covered with lacquer, emphasizing the texture of wood.

Carving can be different. Today we will tell you what kinds of carving are possible. This includes CNC machines.

On a flat surface or flat carving:

For this type of carving, a smooth surface of the objects to be decorated or an ordinary board is used. According to the sketch or 3D file with stl model of the future decoration, the pattern is created using the technique of cutting out recesses and notches. This type of carving can be carried out both manually and on a CNC machine and is divided into geometric and contour carving.

Contour carving on wood:

This is one of the simple ways of working with wood. It is used for carving on utensils, furniture, platbands, and jambs. Where all you need to do is highlight the pattern using uncomplicated lines of varying depths, lengths and widths.

Geometric carving on wood:

All sorts of wood or MDF products are often decorated with this particular type of wood carving. The drawing seems complex, but the execution uses simple figures that, crossing each other, form a complex beautiful pattern.

Flat relief:

This type of carving is done in one plane and requires a certain amount of precision as it is difficult to correct mistakes. However, when this work is done on a CNC machine, the possibility of defects is minimal.

Relief:

Perhaps one of the most popular ways of decorating interior furniture. Since ancient times, this method of wood carving has been used for walls, ceilings, furniture and doors. Relief carving is divided into two methods: bas-relief (the volumetric part is not fully expressed, but only partially protruding above the surface) and high relief (the pattern is more pronounced above the main surface). Both subspecies are used in architecture and sculpture.

Sculptural:

Back in ancient times, people learned to use tools to make idols and deities. In Russia, this method became in demand for the manufacture of iconostases, images and interior details in temples. The sculptural type of wood carving is characterized by the fact that the figure must be made with a certain accuracy. The piece can be viewed by taking it in hand and at a very close distance. This type of carving is only possible if the craftsman has mastered the other woodcarving techniques perfectly. For CNC machine operators, this type of carving will also be a little more difficult than, for example, flat relief carving, but much easier than for those who work by hand.

Slotted or openwork:

Another very beautiful wood carving option. Assumes through holes on the object being decorated, forming a beautiful pattern.

With the help of such carving today create vases, wooden partitions, openwork panels, beautiful railings and much more.

Carvings on CNC machines

The key feature of performing work on CNC machines is the extreme accuracy of execution, in accordance with the 3d model of the future product. Thus, you can realize any of your ideas.

Also the advantages of cutting on a CNC machine is the relative speed of order fulfillment (although after the machine cutter still has to trim and grind a lot manually) and the exclusion of the possibility of any errors. It is also worth noting the price for carving on a CNC machine, which will be much lower than manual work.
