Form Tools
Category: Machine Shop
Summary: Creating
specific shapes in one operation.
Form tools are
cutting tools designed to produce a specific, complex shape on a workpiece in a
single pass. Unlike tools that remove material gradually to create a shape,
form tools are ground to the exact profile of the desired finished part. This
allows for efficient and accurate production of identical parts, particularly
on lathes or other turning machines. While they are highly efficient for mass
production, form tools are often more expensive and complex to manufacture
compared to standard cutting tools.
