  2. Schematic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schematic

    A schematic, or schematic diagram, is a designed representation of the elements of a system using abstract, graphic symbols rather than realistic pictures. A schematic usually omits all details that are not relevant to the key information the schematic is intended to convey, and may include oversimplified elements in order to make this essential meaning easier to grasp, as well as additional ...

  3. Kinematic diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematic_diagram

    In mechanical engineering, a kinematic diagram or kinematic scheme (also called a joint map or skeleton diagram) illustrates the connectivity of links and joints of a mechanism or machine rather than the dimensions or shape of the parts. Often links are presented as geometric objects, such as lines, triangles or squares, that support schematic ...

  4. Metal lathe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_lathe

    A view inside the enclosure of a CNC Swiss-style lathe/screw machine. A Swiss-style lathe is a specific design of lathe providing extreme accuracy (sometimes holding tolerances as small as a few tenths of a thousandth of an inch—a few micrometers). A Swiss-style lathe holds the workpiece with both a collet and a guide bushing. The collet sits ...

  5. Copying lathe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copying_lathe

    The cutter was set on the same axis as the probe, but was controlled by the screw with the smaller step, which ensured the scaling. It could cut minute detail, but worked very slowly. The duplicating lathe, as well as other machinery of Nartov's invention was described, with diagrams, in Nartov's unpublished manuscript, Theatrum Machinarium. It ...

  6. Centerless grinding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centerless_grinding

    A schematic diagram of the centerless grinding process. Centerless grinding is a machining process that uses abrasive cutting to remove material from a workpiece. [1] Centerless grinding differs from centered grinding operations in that no spindle or fixture is used to locate and secure the workpiece; [2] the workpiece is secured between two rotary grinding wheels, and the speed of their ...

    Modern metal lathe A watchmaker using a lathe to prepare a component cut from copper for a watch. A lathe (/ l eɪ ð /) is a machine tool that rotates a workpiece about an axis of rotation to perform various operations such as cutting, sanding, knurling, drilling, deformation, facing, threading and turning, with tools that are applied to the workpiece to create an object with symmetry about ...

  9. Turning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turning

    A lathe is a machine tool used principally for shaping pieces of metal, wood, or other materials by causing the workpiece to be held and rotated by the lathe while a tool bit is advanced into the work causing the cutting action. Lathes can be divided into three types for easy identification: engine lathe, turret lathe, [5] and special purpose ...
