This paper describes the functional surfaces creation turned by the mixed cutting ceramics or coated carbide changeable insert. The hard turning process was realised by CNC programming in FANUC MANUAL GUIDE i system at CNC machine tool. FANUC programming system contains from software which make possible to create programme by CNC codes and graphically as in CAD/CAM methods joined together into whole compact system. Automating the production process and the subsequent generation of NC code in

... format is a developing trend in the series (mass) production. Significantly reduces production time and the main side times, unlike conventional production machinery. Author solution is in the shortened production process applied to HSC machining and grinding rather than qualitative indicators improved surface integrity. The first chapter is an introduction of paper defining the fundamental points. The second and third chapter describes the grinding replacement by the CNC turning technology with new cutting tools on practical examples and also experiments. The last chapter is conclusion and recommendations to improve the quality of machining. All this was practically demonstrated in the research organization VSM -The School of Management in Trencin, Slovakia in cooperation with MASH Integration Co. Trencin.
