The cutting-out technique involves machining of the workpieces on their end faces and is used for specific jobs. The turning tool is moved in axial direction. The right-hand end-cut turning tool, specially ground, is mostly used (see Fig. 4 - relief-grinding of the secondary cutting edge to avoid "dragging" of the tool).

- The workpiece is chucked in a chuck.- The workpiece is held in internally turned chuck jaws.
- Stop and block gauge are used to avoid cutting-through and, consequently, tool breakage.
- Cutting-out is completed 0.1 - 0.2 mm before breaking-through and after unloading the cut-out part is knocked out by hammer blows to avoid tool breakage and prevent accidents.

- Cutting-out of very long workplaces can be done from two ends to add up to the stability of the turning tool.
Which measuring and testing tools are used for
cutting-out?
