Machining

Manual Milling Machines

Used for machining a flat, curved or unusual surface by putting a piece of material against a rotating cutter, with cutting edges. The motor-driven spindle mounts and revolves the milling cutter, and a reciprocating adjustable worktable mounts and feeds the workpiece.

  • Mitts and Merrill Keyseater

Manual Turning Machines

The process in which a cutting tool shapes a workpiece while it moves. It needs a constant operator to supervise the lathe.

  • Clausing Model 5914 Engine Lathe

Saws

Our machinery equipped with saws are used for cutting the correct amount of material for each part. The cutting tools of sawing machines may be thin metallic disks with teeth on their edges, thin metal blades or flexible bands with teeth on one edge, or thin grinding wheels.
