What is keyway slotting?
Keyway slotting is a metal machining process which creates a keyway in a workpiece. During the keyway slotting process, a cutter moves vertically up and down, moving slightly closer to the workpiece after each cycle. During each downward motion, the cutter removes some material from the workpiece in the form of swarf. This is repeated until the keyway has reached the desired depth.

The keyway slotting technique has several benefits:
- Possibility of tapered keyway slotting
