Machining technology

Work on CNC machine tools with – similar to other disciplines – is constantly evolving. New cutting materials, tools and new machining methods are emerging, the common denominator being increased productivity.
The CNC machine control program must contain the most appropriate cutting conditions set for the specific part surface and tool.

A prerequisite for the preparation of a quality program is the knowledge and ability to use the machining technologies of turning, milling and drilling. As it is not possible to remember a huge amount of information, including specific cutting conditions, it is necessary to understand the possible connections when reading the drawing. What is it about a particular blank? How demanding are the different operational sections? What can be problematic?

The publication you are holding in your hands provides comprehensive information on machining technologies in the areas of turning, milling and drilling, modern trends and technological developments. It is intended mainly for technologists, programmers and CNC machine operators, but it will also be appreciated by managers concerned with production innovation.

Nowadays, it is no longer possible to specialise in one type of machining, because machines can handle more technologies. But of course, workers on single-profession machines will also find useful information here. The book also includes examples of effective use of tool and fixture manufacturers' tables.
