Shaping Machine

Shaping Machine is a machine designed for giving desired shapes to the surfaces that may be horizontal, vertical and flat. A shaping tool is used to cut in curves, different angles, and many other shapes. A disc is responsible for the tool rotation which results in the forward and backward movement. The cutting tool is used to give the shape to the hard surface of metal or wood by removing the excess material.
The shaping machine operates in the reciprocating type of machine function. Here the work piece is fixed on the machine table and the cutting tool is placed on the work piece. Reciprocating movements over the work piece results in forward and backward strokes. Forward stroke is responsible for cutting action over the object and backward movement is responsible for restoring its position without any cutting action.
