2. Facing (machining) - Wikipedia

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

   Facing on a milling machine is the process of cutting a flat surface perpendicular to the axes of the milling cutter. This process removes the material by rotating the facing tool in the counterclockwise direction as the table feeds the work piece across the cutter. Face milling can be achieved with an end mill, but is often done with a face ...

3. 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 ...

4. Turning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turning

   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 action, whereas this same essential cutting action when applied ...

5. Machine tool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 workpiece and provide a guided movement of the parts ...

6. Lathe - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lathe

   Lathe. A lathe (/ leɪð /) 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 that axis.

7. 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 ...
