Commonly used cutting tools for lathes are a common tool in the field of machining. They are used for cutting metal and non-metallic materials to produce high-precision parts and mechanical equipment. The following will introduce several commonly used tools on lathes:
1. Cylindrical tool: Cylindrical tool is one of the most common tools on lathes and is used to process the cylindrical surface of the workpiece. The shapes of cylindrical cutting tools include straight knives, angle knives, arc knives, etc. Different cutting tools can be selected according to different needs to achieve different processing effects.
2. Internal tool: The internal tool is a tool used for lathe processing of the inner surface of the workpiece. According to the processing requirements, the shapes of internal cutting tools include straight cutters, angle cutters, arc cutters, etc., which can meet different processing needs.
3. Face milling cutter: Face milling cutter is a tool used for surface processing, mainly used for processing flat surfaces such as thin plates and castings. There are many types of face milling cutter structures and tool tip shapes, which can be selected according to actual processing requirements.
4. End mill: The end mill is a tool used for end milling and flat cutting. It is an indispensable tool in lathe processing. End mills come in different shapes and structures, and can use a variety of cutting methods to achieve different processing effects.
5. Turning tool: Turning tool is a tool used for lathe cutting. It is used to remove a thin layer on the surface of the workpiece to achieve the purpose of processing. Turning tools usually consist of a tool handle and a tool head. According to different cutting methods, turning tools are also classified in different ways.
To sum up, commonly used tools for lathes include external cylindrical tools, internal cylindrical tools, face milling cutters, end milling cutters and turning tools. These tools have a wide range of applications, can meet different processing needs, and play an important role in the field of machining.
