Tööpink

A tööpink, often translated as machine tool, is a stationary machine used to shape metal and other solid materials. These machines are essential for manufacturing and production processes, allowing for precise and repeatable shaping of components. The primary function of a tööpink is to remove material from a workpiece through various cutting, abrading, or deforming processes. They are typically powered by electric motors, though historically some were manually operated or driven by other power sources.

Common types of tööpink include lathes, milling machines, drills, grinders, and presses. A lathe rotates a workpiece while a cutting tool is moved along its axis to create cylindrical or conical shapes. Milling machines use rotating cutters to remove material from a workpiece in a more complex manner, enabling the creation of flat surfaces, slots, and intricate profiles. Drill presses are used for creating holes with precision. Grinding machines utilize abrasive wheels to achieve very smooth finishes or to remove small amounts of material. Presses apply force to deform or cut materials.

The accuracy and capability of a tööpink are crucial for achieving desired product specifications. Modern tööpink often incorporate advanced features such as computer numerical control (CNC) for automated operation and increased precision. The versatility and importance of tööpink make them a fundamental element in industrial settings worldwide.
