Types of woodworking tools

A tool that processes wood into the required shape and size by cutting. There are two types of woodworking knives: hand-held and machine-used. Machine-used woodworking knives are used in batch and mass production. Machine-used woodworking knives are divided into four categories: saws, blades, milling cutters, and drills.
Woodworking saws
Woodworking saws are tools used to saw wood. There are many types, such as circular saws, band saws, strip saws, chain saws, and barrel saws. Circular saws and band saws are the most commonly used. When the saw cut is parallel to the wood grain, it is called longitudinal cutting, and when the saw cut is perpendicular to the wood grain, it is called cross-cutting. The circular saw tooth shape used in the latter is different from that of the former, which is conducive to cutting fibers when cross-cutting.

Carbide Reversible Knives
A flat-plate-shaped tool with a cutting edge, used for plane processing or sectioning of wood. Blades with different parameters are installed on various machine tools, and different processing methods can be performed.
1. Planing is used for plane processing, and the blade or workpiece generally moves in a straight line.
2. During rotary cutting, the wood rotates around a fixed center, and the blade moves continuously in a straight line toward the center, cutting the wood into strip-shaped veneer for the production of plywood.
3. Shearing is used to cut veneers during plywood production.

Woodworking milling cutter
A rotary tool with one or more teeth. Through the relative movement of the workpiece and the milling cutter, each tooth cuts off the excess of the workpiece intermittently in turn. Woodworking milling cutters are divided into two categories according to the clamping method: hole-set milling cutters and shank milling cutters. 1. The structure of the set milling cutter is integral, inlaid and combined. Milling cutters are widely used in the production of joinery to process planes, forming surfaces, mortises, tenons, slots and carvings. 2. Compared with milling cutters used for cutting metal, woodworking milling cutters have larger front and back angles to obtain sharp cutting edges and reduce cutting resistance. Another feature is that the number of cutting teeth is small and it has a larger chip space. 3. In addition to tool steel and alloy steel, the material of woodworking milling cutters is also widely used in carpentry to improve production efficiency and tool life.

Woodworking drill bits
Woodworking drill bits are rod-shaped or spiral tools with cutting edges on the ends, used to process through holes or blind holes. The difference between a woodworking drill bit and a woodworking end mill is that a woodworking drill bit has no cutting edge on the side. In addition to the main cutting edge, a woodworking drill bit has a sharp countersunk cutting edge on the outer edge to cut off wood fibers and make the side of the hole smoother.
