Speaking of the processing of CNC machine tools, we can't help but think of various types of tools. Tools are often divided into turning tools, hole processing tools, milling tools, broaching tools, thread tools, gear tools, automatic lines and CNC machine tools and reamers according to the processing method and specific uses.

In addition to the above types, CNC machine tools can also be classified in the following ways:

1. Such as according to the material used is divided into high-speed steel tools, carbide tools, ceramic tools, cubic boron nitride tools and diamond tools;

2. According to the structure, it is divided into integral tool, insert tool, machine clip tool and compound tool.

3. According to whether standardization is divided into standard tools and non-standard tools.

Introduction to commonly used tools:

The most common should be the milling cutter, milling cutter is a widely used multi-edge rotary tool, there are many kinds. Divided by use:

1. Surface processing, such as cylindrical surface milling cutter, end milling cutter, etc.;

2. For processing grooves, such as end milling cutter, T-cutter and Angle milling cutter;

3. Milling for forming surfaces, such as convex and concave semi-circular milling cutters and milling cutters for processing other complex forming surfaces. The productivity of milling is generally higher, and the roughness of the machined surface is larger.

Of course, there are turning tools, turning tools are the most widely used tool in metal cutting. It can be used on the lathe to process the outer circle, end plane, thread, inner hole, and can also be used for grooving and cutting. The turning tool can be divided into integral turning tool, welding assembly turning tool and mechanically clamped blade turning tool in structure. Turning tools with mechanically clamped blades can be divided into machine tool turning tools and indexable turning tools. The cutting performance of mechanically clamped turning tool is stable, and workers do not have to sharpen the tool, so it is used more and more in modern production.
