2. Fixture (tool) - Wikipedia

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

   A common type of fixture, used in materials tensile testing (Grip-Engineering). A fixture is a work-holding or support device used in the manufacturing industry. [1] [2] Fixtures are used to securely locate (position in a specific location or orientation) and support the work, ensuring that all parts produced using the fixture will maintain conformity and interchangeability.

3. Tool and cutter grinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_and_cutter_grinder

   View of a typical setup on a T&C grinder. A Tool and Cutter Grinder is used to sharpen milling cutters and tool bits along with a host of other cutting tools.. It is an extremely versatile machine used to perform a variety of grinding operations: surface, cylindrical, or complex shapes.

4. Surface grinding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_grinding

   The components of a surface grinding machine are an abrasive wheel, a workholding device known as a chuck, and a reciprocating or rotary table. The chuck holds the material in place by two processes: ferromagnetic pieces are held in place by a magnetic chuck, while non-ferromagnetic and nonmetallic pieces are held in place with vacuum or ...

5. Chuck (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

   A self-centering chuck, also known as a scroll chuck, [2] uses jaws, interconnected via a scroll gear (scroll plate), to hold onto a tool or workpiece. Because they most often have three jaws, the term three-jaw chuck without other qualification is understood by machinists to mean a self-centering three-jaw chuck.

   Production needs dictate form and function. Jigs, fixtures and gages are needed to maintain quality standards for repeated low and high volume production demands. Ongoing evolution of computerized design and control technologies, such as CAD/CAM , CNC , PLC , and others, has limited the use of jigs in manufacturing, however all the computer run ...

9. Machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machining

   Machining is a form of subtractive manufacturing, [1] which utilizes machine tools, in contrast to additive manufacturing (e.g. 3D printing), which uses controlled addition of material. Machining is a major process of the manufacture of many metal products, but it can also be used on other materials such as wood , plastic , ceramic , and ...
