2. Cemented carbide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cemented_carbide

   This gives the benefit of using carbide at the cutting interface without the high cost and brittleness of making the entire tool out of carbide. Most modern face mills use carbide inserts, as well as many lathe tools and endmills. In recent decades, though, solid-carbide endmills have also become more commonly used, wherever the application's ...

3. Tipped tool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tipped_tool

   In the types in which the cutter portion is an indexable part clamped by a screw, the cutters are called inserts (because they are inserted into the tool body). Tipped tools allow each part of the tool, the shank and the cutter(s), to be made of the material with the best properties for its job.

4. Lathe center - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lathe_center

   Dead center with carbide insert (bottom) A dead center (one that does not turn freely, i.e., dead) may be used to support the workpiece at either the fixed or rotating end of the machine. When used in the fixed position, a dead center produces friction between the workpiece and center, due to the rotation of the workpiece.

5. Tool bit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_bit

   Originally, all tool bits were made of high carbon tool steels with the appropriate hardening and tempering.Since the introductions of high-speed steel (HSS) (early years of the 20th century), sintered carbide (1930s), ceramic and diamond cutters, those materials have gradually replaced the earlier kinds of tool steel in almost all cutting applications.

6. Cutting tool (machining) - Wikipedia

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

   Cutting tools are often designed with inserts or replaceable tips (tipped tools). In these, the cutting edge consists of a separate piece of material, either brazed, welded or clamped on to the tool body. Common materials for tips include cemented carbide, polycrystalline diamond, and cubic boron nitride. [2]

7. Boring (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

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

   Boring is one of the most basic lathe operations next to turning and drilling. Lathe boring usually requires that the workpiece be held in the chuck and rotated. As the workpiece is rotated, a boring bar with an insert attached to the tip of the bar is fed into an existing hole. When the cutting tool engages the workpiece, a chip is formed.

8. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

   Cutting speed may be defined as the rate at the workpiece surface, irrespective of the machining operation used. A cutting speed for mild steel of 100 ft/min is the same whether it is the speed of the cutter passing over the workpiece, such as in a turning operation, or the speed of the cutter moving past a workpiece, such as in a milling operation.

9. Lathe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lathe

   Modern metal lathe A watchmaker using a lathe to prepare a component cut from copper for a watch. A lathe (/ l eɪ ð /) is a machine tool that rotates a workpiece about an axis of rotation to perform various operations such as cutting, sanding, knurling, drilling, deformation, facing, threading and turning, with tools that are applied to the workpiece to create an object with symmetry about ...
