A machining system that uses a plurality of tools to machine a workpiece includes a display unit capable of displaying a search screen for searching for a tool. The search screen can accept input of a search condition related to the remaining lifespan of a tool. The machining system also includes a search unit for searching for a tool whose remaining lifespan or amount of usage satisfies the search condition, among the plurality of tools, based on the amount of usage of each of the tools from a new state. The search screen displays information regarding a tool that satisfies the search condition as a search result.

A machining system with a configuration in which working machines, including a machine tool such as a lathe, are configured to be disposed in a line and multiple working machines perform operations on one work in order such that practical utility of the machining system is enhanced. The machining system includes a base; and multiple working machine modules which are mounted on the base and are arranged in an arrangement direction, and has a configuration in which each of the multiple working machine modules is capable of being drawn out from the base along a track extending in an intersecting direction intersecting with the arrangement direction.

Coring augers, tools, methods, and connectors for preparing an end of a coaxial cable for introduction of a flowable medium into the end are disclosed. The disclosed methods and tools may form a frustoconical dielectric portion at an end of the coaxial cable. An annular space formed between the outer conductor and the frustoconical dielectric portion may facilitate the introduction of the flowable medium into the annular space. The disclosed methods and tools may also flare an outer conductor at the end of the coaxial cable and engage the flared outer conductor in a corresponding flared connector.
