What are the equipment used in mechanical processing, such as turning, boring, milling? (part1)

Lathe: A lathe is a machine tool that primarily uses turning tools to turn rotating workpieces. On the lathe, drills, reamers, taps, dies, and knurling tools can also be used for corresponding processing. Generally divided into two categories, ordinary lathes and CNC lathes. Ordinary lathes mainly control the accuracy and size of parts through human intervention, which tests the level of workers; CNC lathes are operated through computer programming.

Boring machine: A machine tool that mainly uses a boring cutter to bore existing prefabricated holes in a workpiece. Usually, the rotation of the boring cutter is the main motion, and the movement of the boring cutter or workpiece is the feed motion. It is mainly used for machining high-precision holes or completing the precision machining of multiple holes in one positioning. In addition, it can also be engaged in the processing of other machining surfaces related to hole precision machining. The machining accuracy and surface quality of drilling, milling, and cutting can be higher than that of drilling machines using different cutting tools and accessories. Boring machines are the main equipment for processing large box parts. Thread and machining outer circle and end face, etc.

Milling machine: refers to a machine tool that mainly uses milling cutters to process various surfaces on workpieces. Usually, the rotation motion of the milling cutter is the main motion, while the movement of the workpiece (and) milling cutter is the feed motion. It can process flat surfaces, grooves, as well as various curved surfaces, gears, etc. A milling machine is a machine tool that uses a milling cutter to process workpieces. In addition to milling flat surfaces, grooves, gear teeth, threads, and spline shafts, milling machines can also process more complex profiles with higher efficiency than planers, and are widely used in mechanical manufacturing and repair departments.
