Machining

Machining revolves around the group of processes in which a shape is generated by removing unwanted material . Machining can be used to make a component from stock material but more often it is used as a secondary process to impart a shape or a level of precision to a manufactured component that cannot be achieved otherwise. Shape restrictions exist for some machining processes.
