2. Laser cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_cutting

   CAD (top) and stainless steel laser-cut part (bottom) Laser cutting is a technology that uses a laser to vaporize materials, resulting in a cut edge. While typically used for industrial manufacturing applications, it is now used by schools, small businesses, architecture, and hobbyists. Laser cutting works by directing the output of a high ...

3. Cladding (metalworking) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cladding_(metalworking)

   Cladding (metalworking) Cladding is the bonding together of dissimilar metals. It is different from fusion welding or gluing as a method to fasten the metals together. Cladding is often achieved by extruding two metals through a die as well as pressing or rolling sheets together under high pressure. The United States Mint uses cladding to ...

4. Sheet metal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal

   Oxygen, nitrogen or air is fed through the same nozzle from which the laser beam exits. The metal is heated and burnt by the laser beam, cutting the metal sheet. [20] The quality of the edge can be mirror smooth and a precision of around 0.1 mm (0.0039 in) can be obtained. Cutting speeds on thin 1.2 mm (0.047 in) sheet can be as high as 25 m ...

5. Laser engraving - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_engraving

   Laser marked electronic part. Laser engraving is the practice of using lasers to engrave an object. The engraving process renders a design by physically cutting into the object to remove material. The technique does not involve the use of inks or tool bits that contact the engraving surface and wear out, giving it an advantage over alternative ...

6. Lathe faceplate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lathe_faceplate

   Unusual slotted faceplate. A lathe faceplate is a basic workholding accessory for a wood or metal turning lathe. It is a circular metal (usually cast iron) plate which fixes to the end of the lathe spindle. The workpiece is then clamped to the faceplate, typically using t-slot nuts in slots in the faceplate, or less commonly threaded holes in ...

7. Stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel

   Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), and rustless steel, is an alloy of iron that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. It contains iron with chromium and other elements such as molybdenum, carbon, nickel and nitrogen depending on its specific use and cost. Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results ...
