  2. Grader - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grader

    A grader, also commonly referred to as a road grader, motor grader, or simply blade, is a form of heavy equipment with a long blade used to create a flat surface during grading. Although the earliest models were towed behind horses, and later tractors , most modern graders are self-propelled and thus technically "motor graders".

  3. Microtome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtome

    A diamond knife blade used for cutting ultrathin sections (typically 70 to 350 nm) for transmission electron microscopy The cutting edge of a disposable blade for a microtome under a microscope The selection of microtome knife blade profile depends upon the material and preparation of the samples, as well as the final sample requirements (e.g ...

  4. Built up edge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Built_up_edge

    The built up edge effectively changes tool geometry and rake steepness. It also reduces the contact area between the chip and the cutting tool, [1] leading to: A reduction in the power demand of the cutting operation. [1] Slight increase in tool life, since the cutting is partly being done by the built up edge rather than the tool itself. [4]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_tractor-scraper

    Then the empty scraper returns to the cut site and repeats the cycle. Caterpillar 613C elevating scraper. On the 'elevating scraper' the bowl is filled by a type of conveyor arrangement fitted with a horizontal flights to move the material engaged by the cutting edge into the bowl as the machine moves forward. Elevating scrapers do not require ...

  6. Burr (edge) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burr_(edge)

    Metal burr extending beyond the edge of the cut piece, view on the cut face (top) and from the bottom (bottom) A burr is a raised edge or small piece of material that remains attached to a workpiece after a modification process. [1] It is usually an unwanted piece of material and is removed with a deburring tool in a process called deburring.

  7. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    Cutting speed may be defined as the rate at the workpiece surface, irrespective of the machining operation used. A cutting speed for mild steel of 100 ft/min is the same whether it is the speed of the cutter passing over the workpiece, such as in a turning operation, or the speed of the cutter moving past a workpiece, such as in a milling operation.

  8. Drill bit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit

    The brad point drill bit has the outside corner of the cutting edges leading, so that it cuts the periphery of the hole before the inner parts of the cutting edges plane off the base of the hole. By cutting the periphery first, the lip maximizes the chance that the fibers can be cut cleanly, rather than having to be pulled messily from the timber.

  9. Blanking and piercing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blanking_and_piercing

    Die roll takes the form of a radius around the outside edge of the blank and the pierced holes. After compression, the part shears for about 10% of the part thickness, and then fractures free of the strip or sheet. This fracturing produces a raised, jagged edge which is called a "burr". Burrs are typically removed by tumbling in a secondary ...
