CNC machine pouring coolant to keep the tool and parts from getting hot Lathe machine. Machining is a manufacturing process where a desired shape or part is created using the controlled removal of material, most often metal, from a larger piece of raw material by cutting.
A 3-axis clone of a Bridgeport-style vertical milling machine. Milling is the process of machining using rotary cutters to remove material [1] by advancing a cutter into a workpiece.
Photochemical etching (center), compared to reactive ion etching (bottom). Photochemical machining (PCM), also known as photochemical milling or photo etching, is a chemical milling process used to fabricate sheet metal components using a photoresist and etchants to corrosively machine away selected areas.
Schematic of ultrasonic machining process An ultrasonic drill from 1955. Ultrasonic machining is a subtractive manufacturing process that removes material from the surface of a part through high frequency, low amplitude vibrations of a tool against the material surface in the presence of fine abrasive particles.
Cutting tools are often designed with inserts or replaceable tips (tipped tools).In these, the cutting edge consists of a separate piece of material, either brazed, welded or clamped on to the tool body.
Abrasive machining is a machining process where material is removed from a workpiece using a multitude of small abrasive particles. Common examples include grinding, honing, and polishing.
