Machine Tool Technology
Machinists use machine tools such as lathes, milling machines, and grinders to produce precision metal parts. Although they may produce large quantities of one part, precision machinists often produce small batches or one-of-a kind items. They use their knowledge of the working properties of metals and their skill with machine tools to plan and carry out the operations needed to make products that meet precise specifications.
