  2. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    The material the cutter is made from (High-Carbon Steel, high-speed steel (HSS), Carbide, Ceramics, and Diamond tools) [5] The economical life of the cutter (the cost to regrind or purchase new, compared to the quantity of parts produced) Cutting speeds are calculated on the assumption that optimum cutting conditions exist. These include:

  3. Carbide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbide

    Boron carbide, B 4 C, on the other hand, has an unusual structure which includes icosahedral boron units linked by carbon atoms. In this respect boron carbide is similar to the boron rich borides. Both silicon carbide (also known as carborundum) and boron carbide are very hard materials and refractory. Both materials are important industrially.

  4. Boring bar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boring_bar

    A part's-eye view of a boring bar. It enters into an existing hole (drilled or cored), and the single-point cutters cut a cylindrical toolpath that is extremely accurate, being defined by the spindle's rotation and the linear motion of the Z-axis slide. In this case, the tool bits are of the brazed carbide type. Boring bar marked B

  5. Carbide saw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbide_saw

    These attributes are all necessary for carbide sawing. Also, the existing tooth geometry with positive cutting angles caused cracking of the carbide tips which were harder and consequently, more brittle than the high-speed steel (HSS) circular blades. The name carbide saw came from the tool, a circular saw blade, with silver soldered carbide tips.

  6. Cemented carbide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cemented_carbide

    Most of the time, carbide cutters will leave a better surface finish on a part and allow for faster machining than high-speed steel or other tool steels. Carbide tools can withstand higher temperatures at the cutter-workpiece interface than standard high-speed steel tools (which is a principal reason enabling the faster machining).

  7. Cementite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cementite

    Cementite (or iron carbide) is a compound of iron and carbon, more precisely an intermediate transition metal carbide with the formula Fe 3 C. By weight, it is 6.67% carbon and 93.3% iron. By weight, it is 6.67% carbon and 93.3% iron.

  8. Circumstellar dust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumstellar_dust

    The circumstellar dust around aging stars has been observed to include, "almost pure crystalline Mg-rich silicates (forsterite and clinoenstatite), amorphous silicates, diopside, spinel, oxides (corundum and Fe0.9Mg0.1O), and also carbon-rich solids such as: (hydrogenated) amorphous carbons, aromatic hydrocarbons and silicon carbide." [4] The ...

  9. Polishing (metalworking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polishing_(metalworking)

    When buffing there are two types of buffing motions: the cut motion and the color motion. The cut motion is designed to give a uniform, smooth, semi-bright surface finish. This is achieved by moving the workpiece against the rotation of the buffing wheel, while using medium to hard pressure. The color motion gives a clean, bright, shiny surface ...
