A high-precision machine tool designed to shape metal by rotating a workpiece against a stationary cutting tool. Often referred to as the "Mother of All Machine Tools," the lathe is unique because it is one of the few machines capable of creating parts for itself.
A tool that uses high heat (and sometimes pressure) to fuse separate pieces of metal into a single, permanent bond. Unlike mechanical fastening (like nuts and bolts), welding joins materials at a molecular level, creating a structure that is often as strong as, or stronger than, the original metal.
a stationary power tool designed to bore precise, vertical holes into metal workpieces with a level of accuracy and power that a handheld drill cannot match.
a heavy-duty power tool designed to make fast, straight, and repeatable cuts through tough metal materials. While it looks similar to a wood miter saw, it is built with a much more powerful motor and specialized blades to handle the heat and resistance of steel, iron, and aluminum.
A high-tech cutting tool that uses a superheated stream of ionized gas—known as plasma—to slice through electrically conductive metals with surgical precision.
