  2. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    This velocity is called the "feed" by machinists. The phrase speeds and feeds or feeds and speeds refers to two separate velocities in machine tool practice, cutting speed and feed rate. They are often considered as a pair because of their combined effect on the cutting process. Each, however, can also be considered and analyzed in its own ...

  3. Broaching (metalworking) - Wikipedia

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

    Broaching is a machining process that uses a toothed tool, called a broach, to remove material. There are two main types of broaching: linear and rotary. In linear broaching, which is the more common process, the broach is run linearly against a surface of the workpiece to produce the cut. Linear broaches are used in a broaching machine, which ...

  4. Surface feet per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_feet_per_minute

    SFM is a combination of diameter and the velocity (RPM) of the material measured in feet-per-minute as the spindle of a milling machine or lathe. 1 SFM equals 0.00508 surface meter per second (meter per second, or m/s, is the SI unit of speed). The faster the spindle turns, and/or the larger the diameter, the higher the SFM.

  5. Machining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machining

    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 utilizes machine tools , in contrast to additive manufacturing (e.g. 3D printing ), which uses ...

  6. Cutting tool (machining) - Wikipedia

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

    The cutting edge of a cutting tool is a very important for the performance of the cutting process. The main features of the cutting edge are: form of the cutting edge: radius or waterfall or trumpet (reverse waterfall) cutting edge angles; form and size of the chamfers; The measurement of the cutting edge is performed using a tactile instrument ...

  7. Grinding (abrasive cutting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grinding_(abrasive_cutting)

    Creep-feed grinding (CFG) was a grinding process which was invented in Germany in the late 1950s by Edmund and Gerhard Lang. Normal grinding is used primarily to finish surfaces, but CFG is used for high rates of material removal, competing with milling and turning as a manufacturing process choice. CFG has grinding depth up to 6 mm (0.236 ...

  8. Centerless grinding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centerless_grinding

    A schematic diagram of the centerless grinding process. Centerless grinding is a machining process that uses abrasive cutting to remove material from a workpiece. [1] Centerless grinding differs from centered grinding operations in that no spindle or fixture is used to locate and secure the workpiece; [2] the workpiece is secured between two rotary grinding wheels, and the speed of their ...
