CNC Lathes and Mass Production of Bats
A CNC lathe, according to the definition from: http://www.toolingu.com/definition-800115-12284-cnc-lathe.html, a 'shop' training website, is a lathe controlled by a computer running programs driven by numerical data. Basically this means that a computer program tells the lathe the dimensions of what you want to make and then the lathe operates according to the computers directions. This allows companies to make more bats faster and with a smaller margin of error that is inevitable with a person hand turning each bat. All the big name wood bat manufactures use CNC lathes in order to produce their bats.

I really like these lathe machines because it can turn out metal or wood pieces into a different work of art. I understand that these lathe machine is for shaping metal, wood and other material by means of rotating metal that is also changeable, depending on what figure or shape you want it to be.- www.clausing-industrial.com
