Best Answer

Cryogenic machining means cooling down the cutting tool with liquid carbon dioxide or nitrogen to very low temperatures ( -78,5°C or -109,3°F and below). This enables a clean production process without conventional cutting fluid that is hazardous to both the environment and to health.

What will happen if you increase the speed of machining in Wire electrical discharge machining?

Machined surface is more rough.


What is adaptive control machining system?

The adaptive control is basically a feedback system that treats CNC as an internal unit in which the machining variables automatically adapt themselves to the actual conditions of the machining process.


What is machining cost?

Machining usually refers to performing a mechanical process on a workpiece of any material that changes its physical properties in some way. More commonly it means to use machine tools to shape a workpiece with cutting action.


What are the difference between conventional milling machine and CNC milling machine?

Non conventional Machining is a recent development in machining techniques. It is based on unconventional machining techniques using Laser beam, Electron beam, Electric arc etc. Conventional machining involves the direct contact of tool and work -piece, whereas unconventional machining does not require the direct contact of tool and wor piece. Conventional machining has many disadvantages like tool wear which are not present in Non-conventional machining. Examples : Electric arc machining, Laser cutting , electro discharge machining, plasma cutting etc Advantages of Non-conventional machining: 1) High accuracy and surface finish 2) no direct contact of tool and workpiece, so there is less/no wear 3) tool life is more 4 ) quieter operation Disadvantages of non-conventional machining: 1) high cost 2) complex set-up 3) skilled operator required

What is field machining?

I'd say it's machining carried out "in the field". Most machining is done in facilities specifically constructed and equipped for the work to be done. When the workpiece that requires machining cannot be transported to one of these facilities you need to bring the appropriate tools and machinery to the workpiece.

What is Unconventional machining technique?

In ordinary machining we use harder tool to work on workpiece , this limitation is overcome by unconventional machining. unconventional machining is directly using some sort of indirect energy for machining. Example : sparks, lasers, heat , chemicals etc.. applied in EDM ,laser cutting machines...etc

What is mean by conventional machining?

The two major categories of machining are "conventional maching" and "CNC (computer numerical control) machining." The actual metal cutting process is the same. The difference is in how the tool path is controlled as it cuts the workpiece. "Conventional machining" (also known as "manual machining") is generally regarded as using manually controlled machines, particularly lathes, mills and drill presses. The tool moves around the work by mechanical controls that are manually controlled. "CNC machining" is generally regarded as using lathes and mills (and some other machine types) in which all tool and workpiece motion is controlled by a computer.
