In the context of machining, a cutting tool or cutter is typically a hardened metal tool that is used to cut, shape, and remove material from a workpiece by means of machining tools as well as abrasive tools by way of shear deformation. The majority of these tools are designed exclusively for metals.
CNC routers come in many configurations, from small home-style D.I.Y. "desktop", to large industrial routers manufactured for commercial use. CNC routers are used in sign shops, cabinet making, aerospace and boat -making.
Sheet metal is metal formed into thin, flat pieces, usually by an industrial process. Thicknesses can vary significantly; extremely thin sheets are considered foil or leaf, and pieces thicker than 6 mm (0.25 in) are considered plate, such as plate steel, a class of structural steel . Sheet metal is available in flat pieces or coiled strips.
Cutting tool materials are materials that are used to make cutting tools which are used in machining ( drill bits, tool bits, milling cutters, etc.) but not other cutting tools like knives or punches . Cutting tool materials must be harder than the material of the workpiece, even at high temperatures during the process.
