<p><a href="page.php?w=Image%3AShaperSlideClapperBox.jpg">thumb</a>In <a href="page.php?w=machining">machining</a>, a <b>shaper</b> or <b>shaping machine</b> is a type of <a href="page.php?w=machine_tool">machine tool</a> that uses <a href="page.php?w=wikt%3Alinear">linear</a> relative motion between the workpiece and a <a href="page.php?w=Tool_bit">single-point cutting tool</a> to machine a linear toolpath. Its cut is analogous to that of a <a href="page.php?w=lathe">lathe</a>, except that it is (archetypally) linear instead of rotary.</p>
