In machining, the rake angle is a parameter used in various cutting processes, describing the angle of the cutting face relative to the workpiece. There are three types of rake angles: positive, zero or neutral, and negative. Positive rake: A tool has a positive rake when the face of the cutting tool slopes away from the cutting edge at inner side.
The main features of the cutting edge are: form of the cutting edge: radius or waterfall or trumpet (reverse waterfall) cutting edge angles; form and size of the chamfers; The measurement of the cutting edge is performed using a tactile instrument or an instrument using focus variation. To quantify a cutting edge the following parameters are used:
Section through railway track and foundation showing the sub-grade. Grading in civil engineering and landscape architectural construction is the work of ensuring a level base, or one with a specified slope, [1] for a construction work such as a foundation, the base course for a road or a railway, or landscape and garden improvements, or surface drainage.
A tipped tool is any cutting tool in which the cutting edge consists of a separate piece of material that is brazed, welded, or clamped onto a body made of another material. In the types in which the cutter portion is an indexable part clamped by a screw, the cutters are called inserts (because they are inserted into the tool body).
Surface feet per minute (SFPM or SFM) is the combination of a physical quantity (surface speed) and an imperial and American customary unit (feet per minute or FPM).It is defined as the number of linear feet that a location on a rotating component travels in one minute.
Sharpened metal drop-point blade Naturally occurring sharp obsidian piece Shark tooth with a sharp, serrated edge A sewing needle comes to a sharp point. Sharpness refers to the ability of a blade, point, or cutting implement to cut through materials with minimal force, and can more specifically be defined as the capacity of a surface to initiate the cut.

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]
Sharp cutting edges, meaning less cutting force. The high cobalt versions are very resistant to heat and thus excellent for reaming abrasive and/or work hardening materials such as titanium and stainless steel. Tungsten carbide More expensive than high-speed steels. Hardness up to HRC 92. Will outlast high-speed steels (usually by about 10:1 ...
