- The first practical digital supercomputer was developed in 1969.
Lathe and Threading
- When cutting a thread using a lathe and a compound rest set at degrees, the total infeed per side to finish the thread of a 16 UNC thread would be 0.0625 of an inch.
- The advantage of using a lathe to cut a thread with a tap is that the tailstock will keep the tap aligned with the axis of the workpiece.
Coordinate Systems
- In polar coordinates, an angle is denoted as positive when measured counter-clockwise.
History of CNC
- The Cincinnati Hydrotel vertical milling machine has a place in history because it could simultaneously control three axes of machine tool movement.
Safety and Measurement
- When referring to lifting and hoisting procedures using a sling, a softener is a device used to protect the sling from sharp edges of the load.
- The lead of a screw thread is the axial distance a nut advances on a screw thread after one complete turn.
- When a fibre rope is hitched, the strength of the rope is reduced by 25 percent.
- Hacksaw pitch blades are used for cutting materials with small cross-sections, such as high carbon steel drill rod.
- WHMIS (Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System) is designed to provide safety for controlled products.
- A worker's responsibility when dealing with WHMIS is to participate in WHMIS training and follow the instructions on the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and the label.
Drilling and Reaming
- A centre drill is used for holes from one to six inches in diameter.
- A floating reamer holder decreases the effect of reamer misalignment.
CNC Programming
- The MCU (Machine Control Unit) of a CNC machine coordinates all machine operations.
- In a CNC program, the M code M30 causes the program to stop executing and reset to the beginning of the program.
- A jig is a special work-holding device used to guide the drill.
Rotational Systems
- The common rotary resolution for most CNC machines is 0.01 degrees.
Lubrication Systems
- The advantage of using an oil mist lubrication system is that it reduces the amount of oil needed.
Geometry and Trigonometry
- Angle calculations can be performed using trigonometric functions, such as finding the angle in a right triangle.
Conversions
- 1 inch is equal to 25.4 mm.
- 1 pound is equal to 0.908 kg.
Percentages and Decimals
- 12.5% is equal to 0.125 as a decimal expression.
Perimeter and Area
- The perimeter of a rectangle can be calculated using the formula P = 2(l + w).
- The area of a rectangle can be calculated using the formula A = l x w.
Materials and Manufacturing
- Steel can be machined in various forms, such as stacks of steel plates.
Blueprints and Surface Finishes
- A cutting plane line on a blueprint indicates where the sectional view came from.
- Surface roughness refers to the average deviation from the centerline measured in microinches or micrometers.
- Waviness refers to the widely spaced irregularities caused by vibration or chatter.
Screws and Fasteners
- Thread forming screws are used to assemble zinc.
- Thread cutting screws are used to assemble sheet metal.
Safety and Hazards
- The employer must ensure that appropriate control measures are in place to protect workers.
- A material safety data sheet must be provided for each controlled product used in the shop.
- The employer must ensure that hazardous products are properly classified as per the hazardous products regulations.
Threads and Measurement
- The minor diameter of an external thread is measured across the deepest point of the thread.
- The part of a hand-held tap that does most of the cutting is called the land.
Fire Safety
- A blue color fire class symbol is associated with a specific type of fire.
CNC Machines
- The program speed when reaming with CNC turning machines is generally 25 to 50 % of that used for drilling.
- A transducer is a device that monitors external variables and converts them into signals for a machine control unit.
- A soft limit switch is an advantage on CNC machines that ensures the oil is always clean.
- The servo drive control in a CNC machine coordinates all machine operations and develops appropriate signals from program data for driving servo motors.
CNC Turning Machines
- Centre drilling on a CNC turning machine provides a 60-degree conical surface for a bearing centre.
- Tailstock support is important when the work overhang is more than 4 times its diameter.
- Machine zero on a CNC machine is the absolute reference point and origin of the machine coordinate system.
Lathe Operations
- The compound rest on a lathe rests to the right of the cross-slide.
- The feed rate for a roughing cut should be as high as the cutting tool and the machine can handle.
- The feed reverse lever on a lathe is found on the headstock.
- Machining of curved surfaces is known as profiling.
CNC Programing
- In a CNC program, the number preceded by T stands for the station number for a turret index.
Trade Mathematics
- 1 pound is equal to 0.454 kg.
- The amount of taper in the imperial system is expressed as taper per foot.
- The value of 589 mm is equal to 58.9 cm.
CNC Machining and Turning

- A facing tool is used to cut a flat surface at right angles to the axis of the workpiece.
- The first Electrical Numerical Integrator and Calculator (ENIAC) inspired the development of automated control.
- A self driving centre is used when the entire length of the workpiece must be machined in one pass.
CNC Machines and Program Zero
- Program zero is the absolute reference point and origin of the machine coordinate system.
- It is a fixed reference point that is established at shut down.
Cutting Materials and Speed
- Carbide is a cutting material that retains its hardness to a very high temperature and is also known as Stellite.
- The recommended cutting speed in SFPM for high speed steel drills when the workpiece material is an Alloy/cast steel is 150.
CNC Turning Centres and Lathes
- A sliding headstock turning centre is also called the Swiss style turning centre.
- Parting-off refers to machining to separate a part from the main bar stock.
- The size of a lathe is determined by the largest diameter of workpiece that can be supported over the ways and the greatest length of workpiece that can be supported between centers.
Drilling and Machining
- A sensitive drill press is used for drilling larger holes and is usually driven by a V-belt.
- A stop shaft is clamped to the ways to stop the movement of the carriage.
- A turret stop is used to disengage the feed lever.
Safety and Measurement
- A softener is a device used to protect the sling from shape edges of the load during lifting and hoisting procedures.
