Machinability describes the suitability of a material to be machined using CNC production processes such as turning, milling or drilling. Many mechanical properties, such as hardness, toughness or thermal conductivity, influence the machinability of a material. The higher the machinability of a material, the easier it is to machine, which in turn has a positive effect on wear and production costs. Machinability is therefore one of the most important parameters in the production of workpieces and components.

Dictionary

Subtractive manufacturing refers to a manufacturing process in which material is removed from a blank using various techniques such as turning, milling or drilling to form the desired end product. This process is widely used in the metal, plastics and wood industries. It enables the precise production of complex components with tight tolerances and high surface quality. Subtractive manufacturing is essential for series production, prototyping and customization in manufacturing technology. By using modern CNC machines (computerized numerical control), efficiency and accuracy can be further increased, making companies more competitive.

Dictionary

In manufacturing, a workpiece refers to the basic blank or starting material that is shaped using various machining processes such as turning, milling or grinding. It forms the basis for the manufacture of an end product and can comprise metal, plastic or other materials. Workpieces are manufactured precisely according to technical drawings and specifications in order to achieve the desired dimensions and properties. The quality and accuracy of the workpiece is crucial for the functionality and durability of the finished product. In industry, the efficient machining of workpieces enables high production quality and contributes to the optimization of manufacturing processes.
