In the modern world of manufacturing, industrial machine shops have become the most vital ingredient. Priest Electric has an amazing industrial machine shop in Boise and offers solutions for companies that often need complicated or custom machine work.
The three main types of machining processes are turning, drilling and milling and each in turn have many types. Advancement in machining have gone to high levels like Electrical discharge machining (EDM), electro chemical erosion technique, laser cutting, cutting metals with water jets etc. Other machining categories are boring, shaping, planning, broaching and sawing. Turning operations are machining operations that rotate the work piece as the method of moving metal work piece against the cutting tool.
Lathes are principal example of machine tool used in turning. Milling is the operation in which the cutting tool rotates to bring cutting edges to bear against the metal work piece. Milling machines are examples of machine tool used in milling. Drilling is the operation in which holes are produced or refined by bringing a rotating cutter with cutting edges at the lower extremity into contact with the metal work piece. Drilling operations are done in so called drill presses but sometimes on lathes or mills.
Other miscellaneous operations are operations that strictly speaking may not be machining operations; they may not be swarf producing operations but these operations are performed at a typical machine tool. Burnishing is an example of a miscellaneous operation. Burnishing does not produce swarf but can be performed at a lathe, mill, or drill press.
