MACHINE TOOLSSuperalloy - An alloy consisting of numerous alloying elements that is very expensive and designedto exhibit certain mechanical properties at elevated temperatures.Surface grinding - A common grinding process generally used on flat surfaces that feeds aworkpiece beneath a rotating grinding wheel.Tailstock - The part located at the end of a lathe opposite the headstock that supports the end oflonger workpieces.Tap - A multi-point tool that is used to cut internal threads into a hole.Taper turning - An operation performed on a lathe that feeds a tool at an angle to the length of theworkpiece in order to create a conical shape.Tapping - The process of cutting internal threads in a round hole with a multi-point tool.Threading - The process of cutting a long, spiralling groove into a workpiece with a single-point tool.Threading processes are essential for the creation of fasteners.TiAlN - Titanium aluminum nitride. TiAlN coatings help improve the wear resistance of carbideinserts at elevated temperatures.Titanium carbide - TiC. A more recent material used to make carbide cutting tools that offersimproved chemical stability and crater resistance.Titanium nitride - TiN. A compound used to coat high-speed steel and carbide tools toreduce friction.Tolerance - The unwanted but acceptable deviation from the desired dimension.Tool chatter - The development of surface imperfections on the workpiece caused by vibrations ofthe cutting tool.Tool failure - The point at which a cutting tool is no longer useful for machining. Flank wear,chipping, and cratering all eventually lead to tool failure.Tool life - The length of time that a cutting tool can function properly before it begins to fail.Tool wear - The rate at which the cutting edge of a tool wears away during machining.Torque - The ability of a machine to exert a torsional force at a particular speed. The torque of amachine will vary across its speed range.Toughness - The ability of a metal to absorb energy without breaking or fracturing.quakerchem.com | info@quakerchem.com© 2013 Quaker Chemical Corporation.

MACHINE TOOLSTraditional machining - The group of machining operations that use single- or multi-point tools toremove material in the form of chips.T-slot cutter - A type of milling cutter that is used to machine a portion of a T-shaped slot intoa workpiece.T-slotting - A milling process that uses a T-shaped milling cutter to machine a ridge or slot theshape of an inverted T into the surface of a workpiece.Tungsten - A gray metal that is very strong at elevated temperatures and is a key alloy for manycutting tools. Tungsten is relatively expensive.Tungsten carbide - The original material used to make carbide cutting tools.Turning - A machining operation that rotates a cylindrical workpiece while a single-point tool isguided along the length of the part. Turning is performed on a lathe.Turret - The component of a lathe that holds a number of cutting tools. The turret rotates to placetools in the cutting position.Turret lathe - A lathe with a mounted device that holds multiple cutting tools. The turret rotates toposition a specific cutting tool in place.V-flange toolholder - A type of toolholder with a long, conical taper that contacts the spindle only onthe taper surface. V-flange toolholders are very popular for conventional machining processes.Vise - A workholding device with one fixed jaw and one moveable jaw. Vises are often used to holdsimple rectangular or cubic workpieces on a mill or machining center.Ways - Two precisely measured, parallel tracks that support and guide the movement of the carriageand cross slide.Wear resistance - The ability of a metal to resist the gradual wearing away caused by abrasionand friction.Work hardening - The hardening of a metal that occurs due to the bending or shaping of a metal.Workpiece - A part that is being worked on during manufacturing. The workpiece may be subject tocutting, welding, forming, or other operations.Worktable - The part of a machine tool that supports the workpiece and any workholding devices.Wrought - Solid metal that has been bent, hammered, or physically formed into a desired shape.quakerchem.com | info@quakerchem.com© 2013 Quaker Chemical Corporation.
