profile milling
plain milling
Forming to Create Shape
slot milling
thread cutting on a lathe
Drilling Operation
Upright drill
Radial drill press
(Willis Machinery and Tools)
Through Holes vs. Blind Holes
Through-holes - drill exits opposite side of work
Blind-holes – does not exit work

Broaching
Advantages:
Good surface finish
Close tolerances
Complicated geometry
Disadvantages:
Tooling is expensive
Starting hole
External broaching
Internal broaching
Power Hacksaw
Power hacksaw
Chucking machines
No tailstock
For short, light-weight parts
Bar machines
Collet permits long bar stock through
headstock
Cutoff operation separates the new part
Highly automated (a.k.a. automatic bar
machine)
