Machining refers to the process of cutting, grinding, stamping, etc., on workpieces through mechanical processing equipment to change their shape, size, surface quality, etc., so that they meet the design requirements. The following is an introduction from aspects such as processing methods, common equipment, and application fields:

Main Processing Methods

- Cutting processing: Removing excess materials through the relative movement of cutting tools and workpieces. Common ones include turning (processing rotating parts such as shafts and discs), milling (processing planes, grooves, complex curved surfaces, etc.), planing (for plane or groove processing), grinding (improving the precision and surface finish of workpieces, such as bearing rollers), etc.

- Pressure processing: Using external force to make workpieces produce plastic deformation, such as stamping (making thin-plate parts such as automobile covering parts), forging (processing blanks to improve material strength), extrusion (producing profiles, pipe fittings, etc.).

- Other processing: Including drilling, boring (for processing hole parts), broaching (efficiently processing inner or outer surfaces), etc.

Common Equipment

- Lathes: Used for turning processing, such as horizontal lathes and CNC lathes.

- Milling machines: Including vertical milling machines, horizontal milling machines, and CNC milling machines, used for milling processing.

- Grinding machines: Such as cylindrical grinders and surface grinders, used for grinding processing.

- Punching machines: Equipment for stamping processing, including mechanical presses, hydraulic presses, etc.

- Drilling machines: Such as bench drills and radial drills, mainly used for drilling.

Application Fields

Machining is widely used in various fields such as machinery manufacturing, automobile industry (such as engine parts processing), aerospace (precision parts processing), mold manufacturing (mold cavity processing), medical equipment (high-precision parts production), etc. It is an indispensable basic process in the manufacturing industry.

Through machining, raw materials can be processed into various mechanical parts that meet the requirements, providing guarantees for the assembly and operation of various mechanical equipment.
