Gang milling

Gang milling is a type of CNC milling process used to machine multiple surfaces or features on a workpiece simultaneously using multiple cutting tools or spindles, and may be used to improve efficiency or accuracy in the machining process.

Gantry mill

A gantry mill is a type of CNC milling machine that features a bridge or gantry structure spanning the width of the work area, and may be used to create large, complex parts or structures.

Indexing

Indexing is the process of rotating a workpiece or cutting tool to a specific position or angle in order to perform a specific machining operation, and may be done manually or automatically in a CNC machine.

Hydrostatic bearings

Hydrostatic bearings are a type of bearing used in CNC machines that rely on a fluid or gas to provide a stable, low-friction support for rotating components such as spindles or tool holders.

Hybrid grinding

Hybrid grinding is a type of CNC grinding process that combines two or more different grinding techniques or tools in order to achieve a specific result or optimize the machining process.

Honing

Honing is a type of CNC machining process used to create a precise, smooth surface on a workpiece using a rotating abrasive stone or tool, and may be used to improve the fit or functionality of components such as cylinders or bearings.

Horizontal Machining Center

An HMC or horizontal machining center is a type of CNC machine tool used for high-precision machining of complex parts or components, and features a horizontally oriented spindle and workpiece bed for improved stability and accuracy.

Hardness

Hardness is a measure of the resistance of a material to deformation or penetration, and may be an important factor in determining the appropriate cutting tool or machining parameters for a given material.

Grit

Grit refers to the size or coarseness of the abrasive particles used in a grinding wheel or other cutting tool, and may be measured in microns or mesh size.

Grinding ratio

Grinding ratio refers to the ratio of material removed from a workpiece to the amount of grinding wheel wear or material lost during the grinding process, and is a measure of the efficiency or effectiveness of the grinding operation.
