Common Methods Of Metal Machining

There are many types of metal machining. Here are the methods and principles of metal machining commonly used by us.

1、Turning

Turning is the machining of cutting metal on the workpiece. While the workpiece rotates, the tool moves in a straight line or curve in the half surface. Turning is generally carried out on the lathe to process the inner and outer cylindrical surface, end face, conical surface, forming surface and thread of the workpiece. There are vertical lathes, horizontal lathes or ordinary lathes that can be used for turning metal machining.

2、 Milling

Milling is the process of cutting metal with rotating tools. It mainly processes grooves and contour surfaces, and can also process arc surfaces with two or three axes. When working, the tool rotates (as the main motion), the workpiece moves (as the feed motion), and the workpiece can also be fixed, but at this time, the rotating tool must also move (complete the main motion and feed motion at the same time). There are vertical milling machines and horizontal milling machines, and large gantry iron machines.

3、 Boring

The back is the method of further processing of forging, casting or drilling holes. It is mainly used for machining holes with large workpiece shape, large diameter and high precision. The boring method can improve the accuracy, reduce the surface roughness, and better correct the deflection of the original hole axis. There are horizontal boring machine and floor type boring machine.

4、 Bolt

The cutter is clamped on the cutter bar at the lower part of the ram of the slotting machine, which can extend into the hole of the workpiece for vertical reciprocating motion. Downward is the working stroke and upward is the return stroke. The workpiece installed on the table of the slotting machine makes intermittent feeding movement after each return of the slotting tool. For the keyway of the inner hole that does not pass through the hole or hinders the shoulder, it is the only processing method to insert several levels. Slotting machine tools and machining centers can do it.

5、 Grinding

The machining method of cutting metal by grinding wheel has accurate precision and good finish. It is mainly used for finishing after heat treatment to make it high precision. There are internal grinder, external grinder, coordinate grinder, etc.

6、 Drilling

Drilling is the basic method of using drill bit to process holes on solid workpieces. It can be processed in machine tools, machining centers, boring machines, etc. the most convenient ones are desktop drilling machines, vertical drilling machines and radial drilling machines.

For example, the machining of automotive metal parts such as oil pipe nut, screw, brake joint, oil pipe joint and AN wrench
