Description
Efficient metalcutting requires using the right shaped tool for the task. These cutting tools are all described by their angles or geometries.
Part of the Fundamental Manufacturing Processes Video Series, this program examines the multitude of single point turning tools and toolholders, and their geometries. Insert style chipbreaker shapes and chip formation complete the turning segment. For the milling and multi-point cutting tool geometries section, the angles and pitches are presented, describing how they affect the milling process.
