INTRODUCTION
Machining is one of the processes of manufacturing in which the specified shape to the workpiece is imparted by cutting away surplus material. Conventionally this surplus material is removed in the form of chips by interacting the workpiece with an appropriate tool. Machining Processes: Single point tool operations: Turning, Boring, Shaping, Planning Multi-point tool operations: Milling, Drilling, Tapping, Reaming, Hobbing, Broaching, Sawing Abrasive operations: Grinding, Lapping, Honing, Super finishing. The machine tools in general, provide two kinds of relative motions. The primary motion is responsible for the cutting action and absorbs most of the power required to perform the machining action. The secondary motion of the feed motion may proceed in steps or continuously and absorbs only a fraction of the total power required for machining.
OBJECTIVE
To Study functions and important parts of the available Machines like Lathe, Drilling, Milling, shaping and Slotting Machine with geometry of tools used in metal cutting.
