Milling is one of the most essential processes in modern manufacturing, enabling the precise shaping of metal and other materials into functional components. . Among the various types of milling machines, the column-and-knee type...
In engineering and design, understanding the various properties of materials is fundamental. The terms strength, toughness, ductility, and hardness are often used to describe how materials behave under different conditions. Each property serves a...
G-code and M-code are essential languages used in CNC programming for the machining process. Here we’ll explain the basics about them and show the list of the Fanuc G Codes and M Codes. What...
In Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), the concept of a datum is central for inspection and part alignment. Datums provide a way to consistently align an imperfect physical part to a perfect reference, enabling...
When working with 6061 aluminum, one of the most widely used alloys in engineering and manufacturing, it’s important to understand the differences between its various tempers—especially 6061-T6 and 6061-T6511. While both start with the...
In this article, let’s take a look at an overview of drill bit materials, mainly covering the types, parameters, standards, hardness, selection, and the best drill bit for different materials. Types of Drill Bit...
Maximum Material Condition (MMC) is an important specification in the design and manufacture of mechanical parts, ensuring that the parts are optimal in terms of function, economy and processability. It provides clear specifications for...
CNC machines are available in diverse types and configurations for different purposes. In this article, let’s get into an introduction to the VMC machine, along with its full form, working principle, operations, spindle speed...
Here, we are going to introduce several typical cases of process improvement for parts. By using special cutting tools and fixtures, the five-axis CNC machining of the parts is changed to three-axis CNC machining....
