Toolroom grinding

Toolroom grinding is the process of using a grinder to shape and finish tools used in a machining process.

Tapping

Tapping is a cutting process that involves threading a hole. It involves the use of a tool that cuts threads.

Thread mill

A thread mill is a cutting tool used to cut threads on a part. It is used in place of a tap to produce threads.

Threaded insert

A threaded insert is a device that is placed into a material to provide a threaded hole for a screw or bolt.

Threading

Threading is the process of creating a screw thread. It can be done by cutting, grinding or rolling.

Tool

A tool is a device used to perform a specific function in a machining process, such as cutting or drilling.

Superabrasive

Superabrasive refers to a type of abrasive material used in CNC grinding and finishing processes, typically made from synthetic diamond or cubic boron nitride (CBN), and designed for high-performance, long-lasting grinding applications.

Surface finish

Surface finish refers to the quality and smoothness of the surface of a workpiece after a CNC machining operation, typically measured in terms of roughness or waviness, and controlled by the cutting parameters, tool geometry, and machine settings.

Tooling

Tooling refers to the collection of tools used in a particular machining operation.

Toolpath

The toolpath is the path that the cutting tool follows during a machining operation.
