    摘要: Disclosed are a computer numerically controlled machine and methods for forming, grinding, or dressing cutting tools in a computer numerically controlled machine. In some embodiments, the computer numerically controlled machine is provided with a cutting tool and an abrasive surface. The abrasive surface is brought into contact with the cutting tool to abrade material from the cutting tool in a grinding or dressing operation. In certain embodiments, it is not necessary to remove the cutting tool from the computer numerically controlled machine for dressing. In some non-mutually-exclusive embodiments, the machine is provided with tool blanks, from which cutting tools are prepared using an abrasive surface in the machine.

    摘要: Disclosed are a turning method and apparatus. The apparatus, which otherwise may be conventional, includes a tool holding mechanism, such as a turret, and a workpiece holder, typically a chuck disposed on a main machine spindle. The tool holding mechanism may be translated in three directions relative to the workpiece holder, including a Z direction that is along the axis of the rotation of the workpiece holder and X and Y directions orthogonal thereto. Under the control of the computer control system, the tool holding mechanism is moved in a direction having both an X- and Y-component relative to the workpiece holder.
