  • What Is Cold-Worked Metal?

    What Is Cold-Worked Metal?0

    Metal is oftentimes manipulated after being smelted from raw ore to improve its strength, durability, ductility or other physical properties. While most of these metalworking processes involve the use of heat, others do not. Cold working, for example, is a group of metalworking processes that’s designed to improve the physical properties of metal at or

    Comparing the Different Types of Milling Machines0

    Featuring a rotating cutting tool, milling machines are able to quickly and efficiently remove material from otherwise hard workpieces. The workpiece is secured in place, after which it’s exposed to a cutting tool. Milling machines differ from lathes in the sense that they use a rotating cutting tool. Lathes have stationary cutting tool, whereas milling
