2. Multiaxis machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiaxis_machining

   CAM software automates the process of converting 3D models into tool paths, the route the multiaxis machine takes to mill a part (Fig. 1). This software takes into account the different parameters of the tool head (in the case of a CNC router, this would be the bit size), dimensions of the blank, and any constraints the machine may have.

3. 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 ...

4. Tool bit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_bit

   The toolpost is the part of a metalworking lathe which either holds the tool bit directly or holds a toolholder which contains the tool bit. There are a great variety of designs for toolposts (including basic toolposts, rocker toolposts, quick-change toolposts, and toolpost turrets) and toolholders (with varying geometry and features).

5. Machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machining

   Lathes are the principal machine tool used in turning. Boring involves the machining of an internal surface of a hole to increase it diameter, this can be performed by either turning the workpiece on a lathe (also called internal turning), or a mill where a tool is rotated around the circumference of the hole.

6. Atlas Press (tool company) - Wikipedia

   In 1919 the Pennimans filed an unfair trade lawsuit against Eames (Atlas Press Co. v. Eames), claiming rights over the trademark, patent and improved design.The case was argued in front of the Michigan Supreme Court, which ruled that Eames had to cease use of the trademark, but refusing the transfer of the improved press to the Atlas company.

7. Numerical control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_control

   A CNC metal lathe with the door open. In machining, numerical control, also called computer numerical control (CNC), [1] is the automated control of tools by means of a computer. [2] It is used to operate tools such as drills, lathes, mills, grinders, routers and 3D printers.

8. Chuck (engineering) - Wikipedia

   The closer on a manual lathe is either lever-style or handwheel-style. The closer on a CNC lathe is powered (electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic), and it may be controlled by various means: a foot pedal that the operator steps on when desired; a line in the program (for opening and closing under program control); or a button on the control panel.

9. Machine tool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_tool

   Important early machine tools included the slide rest lathe, screw-cutting lathe, turret lathe, milling machine, pattern tracing lathe, shaper, and metal planer, which were all in use before 1840. [12] With these machine tools the decades-old objective of producing interchangeable parts was finally realized. An important early example of ...
