Process & Cutting Tool Make Up

The process and cutting tool makeup will depend on the specific machining process being used. However, there are some general principles that apply to most machining processes.

Machining & Turning:
This process uses a lathe to remove material from a workpiece by rotating it and holding a cutting tool against it. The cutting tool can be moved along the axis of rotation (turning) or perpendicular to it (facing).

Turning tools:

These tools have a variety of shapes that can be used to create different features on the workpiece, such as straight cuts, grooves, and shoulders.

Cold Forming:

Cold forming is a manufacturing process in which metal is shaped by plastic deformation at room temperature. This process can be used to create a wide variety of shapes, including tubes, wires, and sheets.
