2. Facing (machining) - Wikipedia

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

   In machining, facing is the cutting of a flat surface perpendicular to some axis of the workpiece. This can be applied in two different areas: Facing on a milling machine (perpendicular to the axis of movement), which involves various milling operations, but primarily face milling. Facing on a lathe (perpendicular to the axis of rotation ...

3. Tool bit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_bit

   Tool bit. In machining, a tool bit is a non-rotary cutting tool used in metal lathes, shapers, and planers. Such cutters are also often referred to by the set-phrase name of single-point cutting tool, as distinguished from other cutting tools such as a saw or water jet cutter. The cutting edge is ground to suit a particular machining operation ...

4. Machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machining

   Machining. 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. Machining is a form of subtractive manufacturing, [1] which ...

5. Milling cutter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milling_cutter

   Milling cutter. Milling cutters are cutting tools typically used in milling machines or machining centres to perform milling operations (and occasionally in other machine tools). They remove material by their movement within the machine (e.g., a ball nose mill) or directly from the cutter's shape (e.g., a form tool such as a hobbing cutter).

6. Milling (machining) - Wikipedia

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

   Milling is the process of machining using rotary cutters to remove material [1] by advancing a cutter into a workpiece. This may be done by varying directions [2] on one or several axes, cutter head speed, and pressure. [3] Milling covers a wide variety of different operations and machines, on scales from small individual parts to large, heavy ...

7. Machine tool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_tool

   A metal lathe is an example of a machine tool. A machine tool is a machine for handling or machining metal or other rigid materials, usually by cutting, boring, grinding, shearing, or other forms of deformations. Machine tools employ some sort of tool that does the cutting or shaping. All machine tools have some means of constraining the ...

8. Spotface - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotface

   The tool at E, a counterbore, is also often used for spotfacing in manual machining (not so much in CNC machining). A spotface or spot face is a machined feature in which a certain region of the workpiece (a spot) is faced, providing a smooth, flat, accurately located surface. This is especially relevant on workpieces cast or forged, where the ...

9. Turning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turning

   Turning. Roughing, or rough turning. Parting aluminium. Finish turning. Turning is a machining process in which a cutting tool, typically a non-rotary tool bit, describes a helix toolpath by moving more or less linearly while the workpiece rotates. Usually the term "turning" is reserved for the generation of external surfaces by this cutting ...
