2. CNC router - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CNC_router

   As with CNC milling machines, CNC routers can be controlled directly by manual programming, but CAD/CAM allows wider possibilities for contouring, speeding up the programming process and in some cases creating programs whose manual programming would be impractical. On some controllers the G-code can be loaded as a vector file on the router ...

3. Burr (cutter) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burr_(cutter)

   These are often used in CNC machining centers for removing burrs (the small flakes of metal) after a machining process. To achieve optimal surface speed and cutting conditions, burrs are rapidly rotated at high speeds, often in the range of thousands or tens of thousands of RPM , which is typically the maximum speed supported by a given spindle.

4. Multiaxis machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiaxis_machining

   CAM software automates the process of converting 3D models into tool paths, the route the multiaxis machine takes to mill a part (Fig. 1). This software takes into account the different parameters of the tool head (in the case of a CNC router, this would be the bit size), dimensions of the blank, and any constraints the machine may have.

5. Milling (machining) - Wikipedia

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

   The most advanced CNC milling-machines, the multiaxis machine, add two more axes in addition to the three normal axes (XYZ). Horizontal milling machines also have a C or Q axis, allowing the horizontally mounted workpiece to be rotated, essentially allowing asymmetric and eccentric turning. The fifth axis (B axis) controls the tilt of the tool ...

6. Digital modeling and fabrication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_modeling_and...

   CNC mills or routers include proprietary software which interprets 2D vector drawings or 3D models and converts this information to a G-code, which represents specific CNC functions in an alphanumeric format, which the CNC mill can interpret. The G-codes drive a machine tool, a powered mechanical device typically used to fabricate components. [4]

7. Router (woodworking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Router_(woodworking)

   A CNC wood router is a computer controlled machine to which the router or spindle mounts. The CNC Machine can be either a moving gantry style, where the table is fixed and the router spindle moves over it, or fixed bridge design, where the table moves underneath the router spindle, or hand-held style, where the operator moves the machine to the ...

8. Tool and cutter grinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_and_cutter_grinder

   The D-bit (after Friedrich Deckel, [1] the brand of the original manufacturer) grinder is a tool bit grinder designed to produce single-lip cutters for pantograph milling machines. Pantographs are a variety of milling machine used to create cavities for the dies used in the molding process ; they are largely obsolete and replaced by CNC ...

9. Cutter location - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutter_location

   The fundamental basis for creating the cutter paths suitable for CNC milling are functions that can find valid cutter locations, and stringing them together in a series. There are two broad and conflicting approaches to the problem of generating valid cutter locations, given a CAD model and a tool definition: calculation by offsets, and ...
