2. Chuck (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_(engineering)

   In a drill, a mill and a transmission, a chuck holds the rotating tool; in a lathe, it holds the rotating workpiece. [1] Chucks commonly use jaws to hold the tool or workpiece. The jaws) are typically arranged in a radially symmetrical pattern like the points of a star.

3. Boring (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

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

   Lathe boring [3] is a cutting operation that uses a single-point cutting tool or a boring head to produce conical or cylindrical surfaces by enlarging an existing opening in a workpiece. For nontapered holes, the cutting tool moves parallel to the axis of rotation. For tapered holes, the cutting tool moves at an angle to the axis of rotation.

4. List of components of oil drilling rigs - Wikipedia

   The wood helps to protect the end of the drill pipe. Rotary table (#20) rotates, along with its constituent parts, the kelly and kelly bushing, the drill string and the attached tools and bit. Shale shaker (#2) separates drill cuttings from the drilling fluid before it is pumped back down the wellbore.

5. Tailstock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tailstock

   Tailstock, click on image to see naming of parts Tailstock used for drilling. A tailstock, also known as a foot stock, [1] is a device often used as part of an engineering lathe, wood-turning lathe, or used in conjunction with a rotary table on a milling machine.

6. 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.

7. Spindle (tool) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindle_(tool)

   In machine tools, a spindle is a rotating axis of the machine, which often has a shaft at its heart. The shaft itself is called a spindle, but also, in shop-floor practice, the word often is used metonymically to refer to the entire rotary unit, including not only the shaft itself, but its bearings and anything attached to it (chuck, etc.).

8. Indexing head - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexing_head

   Indexing heads are usually used on the tables of milling machines, but may be used on many other machine tools including drill presses, grinders, and boring machines. Common jobs for a dividing head include machining the flutes of a milling cutter , cutting the teeth of a gear , milling curved slots, or drilling a bolt hole circle around the ...

9. Turning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turning

   A lathe is a machine tool used principally for shaping pieces of metal, wood, or other materials by causing the workpiece to be held and rotated by the lathe while a tool bit is advanced into the work causing the cutting action. Lathes can be divided into three types for easy identification: engine lathe, turret lathe, [5] and special purpose ...
