Lõiketöötlemisel

Lõiketöötlemisel refers to the process of removing material from a workpiece using a cutting tool. This machining operation is fundamental in manufacturing and fabrication, enabling the creation of parts with precise dimensions and desired shapes. The process involves relative motion between the cutting tool and the workpiece, where the cutting edge of the tool severs small amounts of material, known as chips.

Various types of cutting tools are employed, each designed for specific operations. Common examples include turning tools, milling cutters, drills, and saws. The selection of the appropriate tool depends on factors such as the material being cut, the desired geometry, and the required surface finish. Cutting fluids are often used to lubricate the tool-workpiece interface, reduce friction and heat, and flush away chips, thereby improving the efficiency and quality of the process.

Lõiketöötlemisel can be performed on a wide range of materials, including metals, plastics, wood, and composites. The precise control over material removal allows for the production of intricate components used in diverse industries such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, and medical devices. The underlying principles of lõiketöötlemisel involve understanding material properties, tool geometry, cutting forces, and thermal effects to achieve optimal results.
