2. 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 ...

   Simeon North. Simeon North (July 13, 1765 – August 25, 1852) was an American gun manufacturer, who developed one of America's first milling machines (possibly the very first) in 1818 and played an important role in the development of interchangeable parts manufacturing. North was born in Berlin, Connecticut, into a prosperous family able to ...

4. Abrasive jet machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrasive_jet_machining

   Abrasive jet machining. Abrasive jet machining ( AJM ), also known as abrasive micro-blasting, pencil blasting and micro-abrasive blasting, [ 1] is an abrasive blasting machining process that uses abrasives propelled by a high velocity gas to erode material from the workpiece. Common uses include cutting heat-sensitive, brittle, thin, or hard ...

5. Jet mill - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_mill

   A jet mill consists of a short cylinder, meaning the cylinder's height is less than its diameter. Compressed gas is forced into the mill through nozzles tangent to the cylinder wall, creating a vortex. The gas leaves the mill through a tube along the axis of the cylinder. Solid particles in the mill are subject to two competing forces: Flow ...

6. Sandblasting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandblasting

   Sandblasting, sometimes known as abrasive blasting, is the operation of forcibly propelling a stream of abrasive material against a surface under high pressure to smooth a rough surface, roughen a smooth surface, shape a surface or remove surface contaminants. A pressurised fluid, typically compressed air, or a centrifugal wheel is used to ...

7. Multiaxis machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiaxis_machining

   Multiaxis machining. A 5-axis water jet cutter and a part manufactured with it. Multiaxis machining is a manufacturing process that involves tools that move in 4 or more directions and are used to manufacture parts out of metal or other materials by milling away excess material, by water jet cutting or by laser cutting.
