Cutting tool (machining)
Rotary saw. A rotary saw, spiral cut saw, RotoZip or cut out tool is a type of mechanically powered saw used for making accurate cuts without the need for a pilot hole in wallboard, plywood, or another thin, solid material. The Rotozip Tool Corp was a company started by Bob Kopras, an American drywall installer who pioneered this type of saw.
Cutting tool material. Cutting tool materials are materials that are used to make cutting tools which are used in machining ( drill bits, tool bits, milling cutters, etc.) but not other cutting tools like knives or punches . Cutting tool materials must be harder than the material of the workpiece, even at high temperatures during the process.
Milling cutters are cutting tools typically used in milling machines or machining centres to perform milling operations (and occasionally in other machine tools).They remove material by their movement within the machine (e.g., a ball nose mill) or directly from the cutter's shape (e.g., a form tool such as a hobbing cutter).
Milling is the process of machining using rotary cutters to remove material [ 1 ] by advancing a cutter into a workpiece. This may be done by varying directions [ 2 ] on one or several axes, cutter head speed, and pressure. [ 3 ] Milling covers a wide variety of different operations and machines, on scales from small individual parts to large ...
Abrasive saw. An abrasive saw, also known as a cut-off saw or chop saw, is a circular saw (a kind of power tool) which is typically used to cut hard materials, such as metals, tile, and concrete. The cutting action is performed by an abrasive disc, similar to a thin grinding wheel. Technically speaking this is not a saw, as it does not use ...

Planer (metalworking) A typical planer. A planer is a type of metalworking machine tool that uses linear relative motion between the workpiece and a single-point cutting tool to cut the work piece. [1] A planer is similar to a shaper, but larger, and with workpiece moving, whereas in a shaper the cutting tool moves.
