Roughing

« Back to Glossary Index

Roughing is a service performed in the manufacturing industry that involves the removal of excess material from a workpiece to create a rough shape or form. This process is typically done using a cutting tool, such as a milling machine or lathe, and is often the first step in the manufacturing process. It is important because it helps to reduce the amount of material that needs to be removed in subsequent operations, which can save time and money.

During the roughing process, the cutting tool removes material from the workpiece in a series of passes. The goal is to remove as much material as possible while still leaving enough material for the final shape to be achieved in subsequent operations. This requires careful planning and precision, as removing too much material can result in a part that is too small or weak while leaving too much material can make subsequent operations more difficult and time-consuming.
