Machines and Machining Issues

Surface Roughness
3
Roughness Units
  • � 1 Micrometer = 1mm = 1 micron = 10-6 meters
  • � 1 Microinch = 1min= 10-6 inches
  • � 1min = 0.025 mm
  • � 1mm = 40 min
  • � Human hair ~ 40 mm

Turning Operations
  • Turning (Performed on lathe)
    • Part is moving and tool is stationary.
    • Used to make parts of round cross section
      • screws, shafts, pistons....
  • Number of various lathe operations
    • turning, facing, boring, drilling, parting, threading
  • Cutting Speeds
    • Nominally 30 - 800 ft./min.
    • Roughing cuts
      • Depth of cut greater then .02 in
      • Feed speed of .008 - .08 in/rev.
    • Finishing Cuts
      • Lower than roughing cuts.

Lathe Components
  • Machine Component (Main items)
    • Bed:� Supports all other machine parts
    • Carriage: Slides along the machine ways
    • Head stock: Power train of system (spindle included)
    • Tail Stock: Fixes piece at end opposite to the head stock
    • Swing: Maximum diameter of the machinable piece
  • Lathe tools
    • Left handed
    • Right handed
    • Threading
    • Boring
    • Groove
    • Cut-Off (Parting)

Milling
  • Types of Milling Machines
    • Horizontal Milling Machine
    • Vertical Milling Machine (Bed & Knee)

Vertical Milling Machine Components

14
Bed Mill
  • � Similar to Dynamyte milling machines
  • � No knee - Bed does not move up and down
  • � Vertical motion possible in head only
  • � Controllable range of motion of head larger than in knee mill (total range of motion less)
  • � Bed mill stiffer than knee mill
  • � Less versatile than knee mill
