   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 ...

4. Facing (machining) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facing_(machining)

   This can be applied in two different areas: Facing on a milling machine (perpendicular to the axis of movement), which involves various milling operations, but primarily face milling. Facing on a lathe (perpendicular to the axis of rotation), which is commonly used in turning and boring operations.

5. Machining - Wikipedia

   Milling operations are operations where the cutting tool with cutting edges along its cylindrical face are brought against a workpiece to remove material in the profile of the spinning tools shaft and lower edge. [7] Milling machines are the principal machine tool used in milling. Advanced CNC machines may combine lathe and milling operations.

6. Milling (machining) - Wikipedia

   These machines have developed from the basic NC (NUMERIC CONTROL) machines. A computerized form of NC machines is known as CNC machines. A set of instructions (called a program) is used to guide the machine for desired operations. There are over 100 different G-codes and M-codes. [8] Some very commonly used codes, which are used in the program are:

7. 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 ...
