Reamer

Reamer
A reamer is a type of rotary cutting tool used in metalworking. Precision reamers are designed to enlarge the size of a previously formed hole by a small amount but with a high degree of accuracy to leave smooth sides. There are also non-precision reamers which are used for more basic enlargement of holes or for removing burrs. The process of enlarging the hole is called reaming. There are many different types of reamer and they may be designed for use as a hand tool or in a machine tool, such as a milling machine or drill press. To achieve highly accurate and consistent diameters with a reamer, one must consider process variables that can influence the overall quality of the hole being reamed. Variables such as reamer material, reamer design, material being reamed, and temperature at the reamed surface, reamer speed, machine or operator movement, etc. must be addressed. By controlling these variables to the best extent possible, the reaming process can easily produce highly accurate and consistently sized holes. Reamers should not be reversed in use as this will tend to dull the cutting edges.

Taper Mill
The Gotco Taper Mill is used to establish gage diameter It is used primarily to mill ollapsed casing and may also be used in conjunction with other mills to prepare a fish for internal engagement. Another useful application is deburring the window after a whipstock operation is completed. Taper mills come in three common configurations. The 60 degree mill has an included taper of 60 degrees. (30 degrees per side.) The 30 degree mill has an included taper of 30 degrees (15 degrees per side.) The 15 degree mill has an included taper of 15 degrees (7 1/2 degrees per side.)

Drill
A drill is a tool fitted with a cutting tool attachment or driving tool attachment, usually a drill bit or driver bit, used for boring holes in various materials orfastening various materials together with the use of fasteners. The attachment is gripped by a chuck at one end of the drill and rotated while pressed against the target material. The tip, and sometimes edges, of the cutting tool does the work of cutting into the target material. This may be slicing off thin shavings (twist drills or auger bits), grinding off small particles (oil drilling), crushing and removing pieces of the workpiece (SDS masonry drill),countersinking, counterboring, or other operations.

Slot mill
End milling is selected for shorter, shallower slots, especially closed grooves and pockets, and for milling key-ways. End mills are the only tools that can mill closed slots that are: Straight, curved or angled Wider than tool diameter, designated pockets. Heavier slotting operations are often performed using long edge milling cutters How to apply Application checklist and hints Use light-cutting end mills with a long predictable tool life mounted in high-performance chucks. Minimize the distance from the tool chuck to the cutting edge to achieve the shortest possible overhang. Consider feed per edge to produce satisfactory chip thickness. Use coarse pitch cutters to avoid thin chips, which can cause vibrations, bad surfaces and burr formation. Use the largest possible tool size to achieve the best diameter/length relationship for stability. Use down-milling as often as possible to achieve the most favorable cutting action. Make sure to evacuate chips out of the groove. Use compressed air to avoid chip congestion. Use Coromant Capto coupling for best stability and support towards the spindle.

Endmill
An endmill is a type of milling cutter, a cutting tool used in industrial milling applications. It is distinguished from the drill bit in its application, geometry, and manufacture. While a drill bit can only cut in the axial direction, a milling bit can generally cut in all directions, though some cannot cut axially. Endmills are used in milling applications such as profile milling, tracer milling, face milling, and plunging.
Types Several broad categories of end- and face-milling tools exist, such as center-cutting versus noncenter-cutting (whether the mill can take plunging cuts); and categorization by number of flutes; by helix angle; by material; and by coating material. Each category may be further divided by specific application and special geometry. It is becoming increasingly common for traditional solid endmills to be replaced by more costeffective inserted cutting tools (which, though more expensive initially, reduce tool-change times and allow for the easy replacement of worn or broken cutting edges rather than the entire tool). Endmills are sold in both imperial and metric shank and cutting diameters. In the USA, metric is readily available, but it is only used in some machine shops and not others; in Canada, due to the country's proximity to the US, much the same is true. In Asia and Europe, while imperial is readily available, metric diameters are standard.

Ball nose cutter

Ball nose cutters (lower row in image) are similar to slot drills, but the end of the cutters are hemispherical. They are ideal for machining 3-dimensional contoured shapes in machining centres, for example in moulds and dies. They are sometimes called ball mills in shop-floor slang, despite the fact that that term also has another meaning. They are also used to add a radius between perpendicular faces to reduce stress concentrations.
There is also a term bull nose cutter, which refers to a cutter having a corner radius that is fairly large, although less than the spherical radius (half the cutter diameter) of a ball mill; for example, a 20-mm diameter cutter with a 2-mm radius corner. This usage is analogous to the term bull nose center referring to lathe centers with truncated cones; in both cases, the silhouette is essentially a rectangle with its corners truncated (by either a chamfer or radius).
Face mil
A face mill is a cutter designed for facing as opposed to i.e., creating a pocket (end mills). The cutting edges of face mills are always located along its sides. As such it must always cut in a horizontal direction at a given depth coming from outside the stock. Multiple teeth distribute the chip load, and since the teeth are normally disposable carbide inserts, this combination allows for very large and efficient face milling.
