Diamond turning is turning using a cutting tool with a diamond tip. It is a process of mechanical machining of precision elements using lathes or derivative machine tools (e.g., turn-mills, rotary transfers) equipped with natural or synthetic diamond-tipped tool bits. The term single-point diamond turning (SPDT) is sometimes applied, although ...
A press brake is a type of brake, a machine used for bending sheet metal and metal plate. [1] It forms predetermined bends by clamping the workpiece between a matching top tool and bottom die. [2] Typically, two C-frames form the sides of the press brake, connected to a table at the bottom and on a movable beam at the top. The bottom tool is ...
Appearance. Center lathe with digital read out and chuck guard. Size is 460 mm diameter x 1000 mm between centers. In machining, a metal lathe or metalworking lathe is a large class of lathes designed for precisely machining relatively hard materials.
Broaching is a machining process that uses a toothed tool, called a broach, to remove material. There are two main types of broaching: linear and rotary. In linear broaching, which is the more common process, the broach is run linearly against a surface of the workpiece to produce the cut. Linear broaches are used in a broaching machine, which ...
A CNC metal lathe with the door open. In machining, numerical control, also called computer numerical control (CNC), [1] is the automated control of tools by means of a computer. It is used to operate tools such as drills, lathes, mills, grinders, routers and 3D printers. CNC transforms a piece of material (metal, plastic, wood, ceramic, stone ...
Milling is the process of machining using rotary cutters to remove material [ 1 ] by advancing a cutter into a workpiece. This may be done by varying directions [ 2 ] on one or several axes, cutter head speed, and pressure. [ 3 ] Milling covers a wide variety of different operations and machines, on scales from small individual parts to large ...
Hydraulic press - 400T. A brake is a metalworking machine that allows the bending of sheet metal. A cornice brake only allows for simple bends and creases, while a box-and-pan brake also allows one to form box and pan shapes. It is also known as a bending machine or bending brake or in Britain as a sheet metal folder or just a folder.
Unusual slotted faceplate. A lathe faceplate is a basic workholding accessory for a wood or metal turning lathe. It is a circular metal (usually cast iron) plate which fixes to the end of the lathe spindle. The workpiece is then clamped to the faceplate, typically using t-slot nuts in slots in the faceplate, or less commonly threaded holes in ...
