The manufacturing of rotating parts plays a crucial role in modern mechanical engineering and industrial production. Rotating components such as shafts, bushings, discs, and cylindrical elements are widely used in automotive, aerospace, energy, and heavy machinery industries. With the rapid development of computer-controlled manufacturing technologies, the use of numerically controlled machine tools has significantly increased the accuracy, productivity, and reliability of manufacturing processes. RDB machines, which represent computer numerical control (CNC) systems adapted for high-precision machining, provide the capability to manufacture complex rotating parts with minimal human intervention and high repeatability. The purpose of this study is to analyze the technological aspects of manufacturing rotating parts on RDB machines, evaluate the advantages of automated machining processes, and determine optimal parameters for improving productivity and quality in industrial manufacturing environments. The research examines the technological characteristics of turning operations, tool path planning, cutting parameter optimization, and process automation in RDB machining systems. Particular attention is given to the influence of cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut on surface roughness, dimensional accuracy, and tool wear. Experimental analysis and theoretical modeling were used to determine the efficiency of machining operations under various conditions. The results demonstrate that the application of RDB machines significantly improves manufacturing efficiency by reducing production time, increasing dimensional accuracy, and minimizing material waste. Furthermore, the integration of computer-aided design and manufacturing technologies enhances the flexibility of production systems and enables the creation of complex geometries that are difficult to produce using conventional machine tools. The study concludes that the implementation of RDB-based machining technologies is an essential step toward the modernization of industrial manufacturing processes and the development of high-precision mechanical components.
