Broadly used in holes processing, boring bars are a kind of component assembled to boring bits  broaching holes that have already been preliminarily drilled and improve hole diameter accuracy. They consist of solid shank and a coolant hole in it. If…

We are aware of that surface roughness means a lot in manufacturing industry. When the concept is recalled to your mind, there must be some common textures on machined parts, such as bright mirror surface, matte, and dull polish. They…

Tool surface coating technology is a surface modification technology developed in response to market demand. Since its appearance in the 1960s, this technology has been widely used in the metal cutting tool manufacturing industry. Especially after the emergence of high-speed…

Cause of wear on Cutting tool include the following ones: Cutting tool materials Tool material is the fundamental factor to determine the cutting performance of the tool, which has a great influence on the machining efficiency, machining quality, machining cost…

Burr in metal processing is a common problem, such as drilling, turning, milling, plate cutting. One of the hazards of burrs is easy to be hurt. In order to remove burrs, a second operation called deburring is usually required. Three deburring…

If you ask, “What’s the difference between CNC machining and 3D printing?” The most straightforward answer: 3D printing is an augmentation technology, CNC machining is a reduction technology. 1. Material differences The main materials for 3D printing are liquid resin…

Deep-hole drills are often divided into external chip removal (also known as gun drill), internal chip removal (often abbreviated as BTA by the International Association of Deep-hole Drilling), nesting or spraying chip removal. This paper mainly introduces the development and…
