Online Translater for machining vocabulary

[GregLaROCHE]

Is there an online dictionary that specializes in translating for machinists terms? Google translate doesn’t always bring back correct translation.
Thanks.

Yes, that would be great.
Then perhaps we can find out what constitutes this new "material" called unobtainium that everything is now made from, that results in shortages of the stuff we would like to have.

curious.........Are you talking about G code ???

I often google adding the word "nomenclature" as in "mill nomenclature" or "lathe nomenclature" to learn the name of machine components.
If you're lookin for machinist terms, try searching for just that, or try "metalworking terminology"
You'll probably have to read through quite a bit of different stuff to find what you're looking for, but a lot of it will come handy later.

I used to follow a machinist group, back when UseNet was still a thing. Learned a lot of expressions (and slang) there.

I learn a lot of French words for things by looking through what’s for sale on the French Ebay site.

I'm sure those of us who were in the trade would be glad to translate.

G code

I knew a little using a laser cutting machine. Simple cuts were easy. Engineering did the others and I downloaded the programs.

"UNOBTANIUM" is a metal you can't get, or is very hard to get.

Anything with "IUM" at the end is a Metal.

I don't speak French so I can translate anything to that language.

Hope this helps .

Traming or sweeping the table on a mill is adjusting the head to zero on the X and Y axis.

Sometimes it’s when or where you buy your tools or were brung up.
