About Machining, Machine Tools and CNC
GoConqr OriginalWhat the page covers
The resources follow the shop floor. You will find machine types, cutting tools, workholding and CNC programming, all made by GoConqr users. Many are flashcard decks that follow textbook review questions, so they suit steady recall practice.
Where to start
Begin with the machines themselves. The mind maps Machine Tools and Milling Machine give a quick overview, and Centre Lathe and LATHE PARTS cover turning. Then move to the decks that ask direct questions:
- Drilling Machines and the deck on drilling machine units ask you to define drilling, boring and reaming, and to tell spot-facing from counterboring.
- Contour Bandsaw Parts and Accessories covers advantages, blade speed and blade guides.
- Indexing walks through indexing head parts and the methods of indexing.
- The thread cutting deck asks you to describe the three taps in a set and to calculate tap drill size.
Programming and CNC
For CNC, start with Common G-Codes and Common M-Codes. Then use the mind maps G-code and CNC PROGRAMMING CODES to see how the codes fit together. Letter Address Commands and G & M Codes (Haas, Basic) add more practice.
Using quizzes and maps together
Read a mind map first, such as METAL CUTTING: Chip Formation or Machining Parameters. Then take a related quiz. Offhand Grinding, Abrasives and Grinding Machines, Lathe Machine Quiz and Vertical Milling Machine Quiz are good checks. Note the questions you miss, then go back to the map for that branch. Jigs and fixtures have their own quizzes, maps and a note.
Where it sits
This unit belongs to the Manufacturing strand of Mechanical engineering. It sits alongside other manufacturing topics, so it works well as the hands-on, machine-focused part of your revision.
Choose one machine, work through its map, deck and quiz, and see what you can recall.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I open first?
Start with a mind map such as Machine Tools or Milling Machine to see the overall picture. Then try a flashcard deck on one machine, for example Drilling Machines, and finish with a quiz like Lathe Machine Quiz to see what you remember.
Are the resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself, so the style and depth vary from one resource to the next.
What do the CNC resources cover?
They focus on programming codes. Common G-Codes and Common M-Codes are flashcard decks, while G-code and CNC PROGRAMMING CODES are mind maps. There is also a deck on Letter Address Commands and one on basic Haas G and M codes.
Who are these resources for?
They suit university students and professional candidates practising machining, tooling and CNC basics, as well as teachers who want ready-made quizzes, maps and decks. The page lists no named exams, so check each resource against your own course.
Does the page include jigs, fixtures and grinding?
Yes. Look for the Jigs and Fixtures deck and quiz, the FIXTURES and JIGS mind maps, and the Jig/Fixture Design Quiz. For grinding, there are Grinding Wheels Version A, Abrasives and Grinding Machines, and Grinding Machines and Processes.
What if I cannot find what I need?
Try a nearby topic, since turning, milling, drilling and tooling each have several maps and decks. You can also make your own quiz, mind map, flashcards or notes with a free account, which also saves your quiz scores.
