2. Indexing head - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexing_head

   A CNC dividing head may be used in this manner on either manual or CNC machinery. Most CNC dividing heads are also able to function as a full CNC axis and may be wired into the control of a CNC machine. This enables the machine's main CNC controller to control the indexing head just like it would control the other axes of the machine.

3. Rotary table - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_table

   Rotary tables are most commonly mounted "flat", with the table rotating around a vertical axis, in the same plane as the cutter of a vertical milling machine.An alternate setup is to mount the rotary table on its end (or mount it "flat" on a 90° angle plate), so that it rotates about a horizontal axis.

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. Tool and cutter grinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_and_cutter_grinder

   Like the CNC grinder, it may be used for other tasks where grinding spherical surfaces is necessary. The tool itself consists of three parts: The grinder head, work table, and holding fixture. The grinder head has three degrees of freedom. Vertical movement, movement into the workpiece, and tilt.

6. Rotary transfer machine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_transfer_machine

   Rotary Transfer Machine. A rotary transfer machine is a machine tool, typically for metal working by machining, comprising a large indexing table with machining stations surrounding the table.

7. Milling (machining) - Wikipedia

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

   The original class of machine tools for milling was the milling machine (often called a mill). After the advent of computer numerical control (CNC) in the 1960s, milling machines evolved into machining centers: milling machines augmented by automatic tool changers, tool magazines or carousels, CNC capability, coolant systems, and enclosures ...

8. Indexing (motion) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexing_(motion)

   Indexing in reference to motion is moving (or being moved) into a new position or location quickly and easily but also precisely. When indexing a machine part, its new location is known to within a few hundredths of a millimeter (thousandths of an inch), or often even to within a few thousandths of a millimeter (ten-thousandths of an inch), despite the fact that no elaborate measuring or ...

9. Lathe center - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lathe_center

   Dead center (the conical piece) mounted in the spindle of a lathe and being used to support a workpiece being driven by a carrier setup. A lathe center, often shortened to center, is a tool that has been ground to a point to accurately position a workpiece on an axis.
