turning
A turning operation in which a single-point tool moves axially, along the side of the workpiece, removing material to form different features, including steps, tapers, chamfers, and contours. These features are typically machined at a small radial depth of cut and multiple passes are made until the end diameter is reached. For a finish operation, the cutting feed is calculated based on the desired surface roughness and the tool nose radius.
