  2. Boring (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boring_(manufacturing)

    A part's-eye view of a boring bar. Hole types: Blind hole (left), through hole (middle), interrupted hole (right). In machining, boring is the process of enlarging a hole that has already been drilled (or cast) by means of a single-point cutting tool (or of a boring head containing several such tools), such as in boring a gun barrel or an engine cylinder.

  3. Boring bar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boring_bar

    Boring can be done on mills, lathes or drill press machines, either with a boring head or with just a boring tool. The shorter the distance between the tool holder and the material, the less distortion created from vibration or unbalanced gyroscopic effects. The greater the distance (static or dynamic mounts) the more flex in the tool or an ...

  4. Turning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turning

    A lathe is a machine tool used principally for shaping pieces of metal, wood, or other materials by causing the workpiece to be held and rotated by the lathe while a tool bit is advanced into the work causing the cutting action. Lathes can be divided into three types for easy identification: engine lathe, turret lathe, and special purpose ...

  5. Canned cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canned_cycle

    A canned cycle is a way of conveniently performing repetitive CNC machine operations. Canned cycles automate certain machining functions such as drilling, boring, threading, pocketing, etc... [1] Canned cycles are so called because they allow a concise way to program a machine to produce a feature of a part. [2]

  6. Indexing head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexing_head

    Indexing heads are usually used on the tables of milling machines, but may be used on many other machine tools including drill presses, grinders, and boring machines. Common jobs for a dividing head include machining the flutes of a milling cutter , cutting the teeth of a gear , milling curved slots, or drilling a bolt hole circle around the ...

  7. Jig borer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jig_borer

    The revolutionary underlying principle was that advances in machine tool control that expedited the making of jigs were fundamentally a way to expedite the cutting process itself, for which the jig was just a means to an end. Thus, the jig borer's development helped advance machine tool technology toward later NC and CNC development. The jig ...

  9. Facing (machining) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facing_(machining)

    Facing on the lathe uses a facing tool to cut a flat surface perpendicular to the work piece's rotational axis. A facing tool is mounted into a tool holder that rests on the carriage of the lathe. The tool will then feed perpendicularly across the part's rotational axis as it spins in the jaws of the chuck.
