Basic Machinery & Quality Instruments
INJECTION MOLDING MACHINE• High Production Machinery• Materials- Plastics• Has a custom metal mold• Precision equipment
BENCHTOP SHEET METAL BRAKE• The unit is for lab or prototype
thin sheet metal
DRILL PRESS• Work piece is held by a vise and
is stationary• Low volume production or
prototypes
Basic Machinery & Quality Instruments
SURFACE GRINDER• Used to remove small
amount of material for a part
• Precision Equipment• Part must be magnetic
CUT OFF SAW• Not precision equipment• Used to cut gross
dimensions of part• Used for mainly metal
parts
LATHE• Cuts mainly round parts• There are wood and metal
lathes• Can make bolts -threads• Makes mainly shafts, pins,
bolts, etc.• Production low to medium
volume
Basic Machinery & Quality Instruments
BENCH GRINDER• Clean off burrs• Sharpen edges• NOT a precision piece of
equipment
BAND SAW• Good for cutting wood
parts• Cutting small metal bars
and sheet metal• NOT a precision piece of
equipment
Basic Machinery & Quality Instruments
MILLING MACHINE• Production low to medium• 3 axis movement of work piece• Work piece is held in vise type
device• Cuts and drills mainly metal parts• Can be computer numerically
controlled (CNC)
INSTRON MACHINE• Used to determine the strength
of materials• Quality control Instruments
