Water cutting, also known as water jet knife, referred to a kind of high-pressure water jet cutting technology, it’s high-pressure water cutting machine. Under the control of the computer, the workpiece can be carved arbitrarily, and it is less affected by the processed material quality.…
Today you will have a rough idea of that what is knurling and knurling definition. The knurled definition is a process to roll patterns of straight, rhombus, or spherical shape into work piece, which can be conducted on manipulative tools or lathes. The…
When continuous strip swarfs are produced in processing, it is not only easy to scratch the surface of the workpiece and damage the blade, but also threaten the safety of the operator. Therefore, it is very important to take necessary technological…
Cutting fluid (coolant) is a kind of industrial liquid used in metal cutting and grinding process to cool and lubricate cutting tools and workpieces. Cutting fluid is composed of a variety of super functional additives, which are scientifically combined. It…
Twist drills and deep hole gun drills have always been a common choice in the deep hole processing industry. We can make these two tools process the commonly used q235 steel, #45 steel and aluminum, to explore the difference of…
The plunge milling method, also known as the Z-axis milling method, is one of the most effective processing methods for achieving high cutting rate metal cutting. For surface machining, grooving, and tooling with large tool hangs, the processing efficiency of…
With the booming development of cnc program for thread milling, especially the advent of 3-axis linkage CNC machining center, now CNC thread milling process is gradually gaining wide acceptance from mechanical processing industry. Besides, threads, as it’s commonly known,…
During NC programming, the programmer must determine the cutting dosage for each process and write it in the program as an instruction. Cutting dosage includes cutting speed, back engagement and feed speed. Different cutting dosages are required for different processing…
Currently widely used CNC machining tool materials include diamond tools, cubic boron nitride tools, ceramic tools, coated tools, carbide tools and high-speed steel tools. Types of cutting tool material There are many grades of tool materials, and their performance is also very…
When cutting metal, the tool cuts into the workpiece, and the tool angle is an important parameter used to determine the geometry of the cutting part of the tool. In order to understand lathe cutting tool angle straightforwardly, we start…
PVD and CVD are currently very common treatment for surface treatments on tools and molds. CVD is based on chemical vapor deposition, while PVD is based on physical vapor deposition, due to their differences in principle, resulting in their final…
How cutting heat is generated The cutting heat is generated in three deformation zones. During the cutting process, the metal deformation and friction in the three deformation zones are the root cause of the cutting heat. Most of the work…
Reasonable selection of tool geometry makes it possible to improve machining conditions, save machining time, improve machining efficiency, ensure the quality of the workpiece being machined, and extend the service life of the tool. Select the angle of the tool…
A drill bit is a tool used to drill through holes or blind holes in solid materials, usually in the range of 0.25 to 80 mm. Common drill bits mainly include twist drills, flat drills, center drills, and deep hole…
Carbide milling cutters are milling cutters made of cemented carbide. To understand the cemented carbide milling cutter, we must first know what is a hard alloy. The cemented carbide is based on the carbide (WC, TiC) micron powder of high…
