2. Specialty engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specialty_engineering

   In the domain of systems engineering, Specialty Engineering is defined as and includes the engineering disciplines that are not typical of the main engineering effort. More common engineering efforts in systems engineering such as hardware, software, and human factors engineering may be used as major elements in a majority of systems engineering efforts and therefore are not viewed as "special".

3. 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.

4. Broaching (metalworking) - Wikipedia

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

   The tool holder is special because it holds the tool so that its axis of rotation is inclined slightly to the axis of rotation of the work. A typical value for this misalignment is 1°. This angle is what produces a rotating edge for the broach to cut the workpiece. Either the workpiece or the tool holder is rotated.

5. Tool and die maker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_and_die_maker

   Working from engineering drawings developed by the toolmaker, engineers or technologists, tool makers lay out the design on the raw material (usually metal), then cut it to size and shape using manually controlled machine tools (such as lathes, milling machines, grinding machines, and jig grinders), power tools (such as die grinders and rotary tools), and hand tools (such as files and honing ...

6. Chuck (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

   A drill chuck is a specialised self-centering, three-jaw chuck, usually with capacity of 0.5 in (13 mm) or less, and rarely greater than 1 in (25 mm), used to hold drill bits or other rotary tools. This type of chuck is used on tools ranging from professional equipment to inexpensive hand and power drills for domestic use.

7. Machine tool - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_tool

   The Moore family firm, the Moore Special Tool Company, independently invented the jig borer (contemporaneously with its Swiss invention), and Moore's monograph is a seminal classic of the principles of machine tool design and construction that yield the highest possible accuracy and precision in machine tools (second only to that of ...

8. Die (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

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

   A die is a specialized machine tool used in manufacturing industries to cut and/or form material to a desired shape or profile. Stamping dies are used with a press, [1] as opposed to drawing dies (used in the manufacture of wire) and casting dies (used in molding) which are not. Like molds, dies are generally customized to the item they are ...

9. Honing (metalworking) - Wikipedia

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

   A honing machine is a precision tool used in machining to improve the surface finish and dimensional accuracy of component. It operates by using abrasive honing tools, which rotate and reciprocate inside the components, typically a cylinder or bore. This process enhances the internal surface quality, achieving precise dimensions and smooth ...
