2. 2.5D (machining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2.5D_(machining)

   Drilling and tapping operations are also possible on a 2.5-axis mill. 2.5D objects can be machined on a 3-axis milling machine, and do not require any of the features of a higher-axis machine to produce. CNC machines use G-code and M-code in order to control the machine and the positioning of the spindle.

3. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

   The introduction of CNC-controlled lathes has provided a practical, everyday solution via automated CSS Machining Process Monitoring and Control. By means of the machine's software and variable speed electric motors, the lathe can increase the RPM of the spindle as the cutter gets closer to the center of the part.

4. Lathe center - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lathe_center

   Dead center (the conical piece) mounted in the spindle of a lathe and being used to support a workpiece being driven by a carrier setup. A lathe center, often shortened to center, is a tool that has been ground to a point to accurately position a workpiece on an axis. They usually have an included angle of 60°, but in heavy machining ...

5. Machine taper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_taper

   Tapered shank tools are removed from a socket using different approaches, depending on the design of the socket. In drill presses and similar tools, the tool is removed by inserting a wedge shaped block of metal called a "drift" into a rectangular shaped cross hole through the socket and tapping it. As the cross section of the drift gets larger ...

6. Tap and die - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_and_die

   A spiral point plug tap ("gun" tap). This feature causes the tap to continuously break the chip and eject it forward into the hole, preventing crowding. Spiral point taps are usually used in holes that go all the way through the material, so that the chips can escape. Another version of the spiral point plug tap is the spiral flute tap, whose ...

7. G-code - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-code

   G-code (abbreviation for geometric code; also called RS-274 [citation needed]) is the most widely used computer numerical control (CNC) and 3D printing programming language. It is used mainly in computer-aided manufacturing to control automated machine tools, as well as for 3D-printer slicer applications. G-code has many variants.
