2. Grinding (abrasive cutting) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grinding_(abrasive_cutting)

   Grinding is a subset of cutting, as grinding is a true metal-cutting process. Each grain of abrasive functions as a microscopic single-point cutting edge (although of high negative rake angle), and shears a tiny chip that is analogous to what would conventionally be called a "cut" chip (turning, milling, drilling, tapping, etc.) [citation needed].

3. Disc cutter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_cutter

   Often cutting discs, also known as cut-off wheels, are made from a solid abrasive disc. These discs are often used for cutting metal; they are composed of an abrasive mix of grit and adhesive that is formed into a thin, rigid disc with fiber webbing running through it for strength. Some discs used for cutting ceramic tile or stone are made from ...

4. Surface grinding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_grinding

   Surface grinding is done on flat surfaces to produce a smooth finish.. It is a widely used abrasive machining process in which a spinning wheel covered in rough particles (grinding wheel) cuts chips of metallic or nonmetallic substance from a workpiece, making a face of it flat or smooth.

   Steel cut-off saw for workshop use Cutting heavy steel cable with a Husqvarna freehand saw US Navy diver preparing to use an abrasive saw for underwater salvage. An abrasive saw, also known as a cut-off saw or chop saw, is a circular saw (a kind of power tool) which is typically used to cut hard materials, such as metals, tile, and concrete.

6. Grinding wheel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grinding_wheel

   Spacing or structure, from 1 (density) to 17 (least dense). Density is the ratio of bond and abrasive to air space. A less-dense wheel will cut freely, and has a large effect on surface finish. It is also able to take a deeper or wider cut with less coolant, as the chips clearance on the wheel is greater.

7. Snips - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snips

   They were first developed to cut aluminum in the construction of aircraft, hence they are often referred to as aviation snips. They can handle aluminium up to 18 gauge, [2] mild steel up to 24 gauge or stainless steel up to 26 gauge. [3] There are three cutting styles for compound-action snips: straight cutting, left cutting, and right cutting.
