4 common methods used to hold the work parts in turning

reaming

used to slightly enlarge a hole, provide a better tolerance on its diameter, and improve its surface finish

triplex mills

add a third spindle mounted vertically over the bed to further increase machining capability

tracer mill

also called a profiling mill, is designed to reproduce an irregular part geometry that has been created on a template

down milling

also called climb milling, the direction of cutter motion is the same as the feed direction when the teeth cut the work; milling "with the feed"

threading die

An alternative to using a single-point tool in single-point threading is a ___

mounting the work between centers

At the headstock center, a device called a dog is attached to the outside of the work and used to drive the rotation from the spindle. The tailstock center has a cone-shaped point that is inserted into a tapered hole in the end of the work.

knurling

it is a metal forming operation used to produce a regular cross-hatched pattern in the work surface

both involving the use of a single-point cutting tool moved linearly relative to the work part. In conventional shaping and planing, a straight, flat surface is created by this action. In shaping, the speed motion is accomplished by moving the cutting tool, while in planing, the speed motion is accomplished by moving the part

Difference between shaping and planing?

single-point tools

Do most lathe operations use single or multiple point tools?

- relative motions between the tool and the work part - the shape of the cutting tool

Each machining operation produces a characteristic geometry due to what 2 factors?

horizontal

Is the conventional engine lathe a horizontal or vertical turning machine?

secondary

Machining is classified as a ___ process.

tailstock

Opposite the headstock, in which a center is mounted to support the other end of the workpiece

- single-point tools - interrupted cutting - limited to low speeds due to their start-and-stop motion

Shaping and planing features

simplex mills

Single spindle bed machines

tapping

The most common process for cutting internal threads in which a cylindrical tool with cutting teeth arranged in a spiral, whose pitch is equal to that of the desired screw threads, is simultaneously rotated and fed into a preexisting hole

single point threading

The simplest and most versatile method of cutting an external thread on a cylindrical work part, which employs a single-point cutting tool on a lathe

(1) Multiple operations in one setup (2) Automatic tool changer and tool storage unit (3) Automatic pallet changers (4) Automatic pallet storage and handling system

The typical features that distinguish a machining center from conventional machine tools and make it so productive include:

multiple-spindle bar machines

To increase cutting tool utilization and production rate, have more than one spindle, so multiple parts are machined simultaneously by multiple tools.

lathe

What machine tool is turning performed on?

facing, taper turning, contour, form turning, chamfering, cutoff, threading, boring, drilling, and knurling

What other operations can be performed on a lathe? (10)

contouring

__ on a band saw involves cutting a part profile from flat stock

profile milling

a form of end milling in which the outside periphery of a flat part is cut

vise

a general-purpose work-holding device possessing two jaws that grasp the work in position

threading (thread cutting or single-point-threading)

a pointed tool is fed linearly across the outside surface of the rotating work part in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation at a large feed rate, thus creating threads in the cylinder

gear shaping

a reciprocating tool motion is used rather than a rotational motion as in form milling and gear hobbing

boring

a single-point tool is fed linearly, parallel to the axis of rotation, on the inside diameter of an existing hole in the part

friction sawing

a steel disk is rotated against the work at very high speeds, resulting in friction heat that causes the material to soften sufficiently to permit penetration of the disk through the work.

gear shaper

a vertical shaper with a specially designed rotary feed table and synchronized tool head to generate teeth on gears

jig

a work-holding device that is also specially designed for the work part

up milling

also called conventional milling, the direction of motion of the cutter teeth is opposite the feed direction when the teeth cut into the work; milling "against the feed"

peripheral milling

also called plain milling, the axis of the tool is parallel to the surface being machined, and the operation is performed by cutting edges on the outside periphery of the cutter.

slotting

also called slot milling, in which the width of the cutter is less than the workpiece width, creating a slot in the work—when the cutter is very thin, this operation can be used to mill narrow slots or cut a work part in two

abrasive cutoff

an abrasive disk is used to perform cutoff operations on hard materials that would be difficult to saw with a conventional saw blade.

pocket milling

another form of end milling to cut shallow pockets into flat parts

bed-type milling machines

are designed for high production and are constructed with greater rigidity than knee-and-column machines, thus permitting them to achieve heavier feed rates and depths of cut needed for high material removal rates.

planar type mills

are large milling machines and have the general appearance and construction of a planer (see Figure 21.31); the difference is that milling is performed instead of planing

the ways

are like tracks along which the carriage rides, and they are made with great precision to achieve a high degree of parallelism relative to the spindle axis.

gears

are machine components used to transmit motion and power between rotating shafts.

gear broaching

as a gear-making process is noted for short production cycle times and high tooling cost. It is therefore economical only for high volumes. Good dimensional accuracy and fine surface finish are also features of gear broaching. The process can be applied for both external gears (the conventional gear) and internal gears (teeth on the inside of the gear)

gear grinding

can be based on either of two methods: (1) form grinding, in which the grinding wheel has the exact shape of the tooth spacing (similar to form milling), and a grinding pass or series of passes is made to finish form each tooth in the gear; or (2) generating the tooth profile using a conventional straight-sided grinding wheel.

screw threads

can be defined as grooves that form a spiral around the outside of a cylinder (external threads) or the inside of a round hole (internal threads).

collet

consists of a tubular bushing with longitudinal slits running over half its length and equally spaced around its circumference inside diameter is used to hold cylindrical work such as bar stock.

single-spindle bar machine

has one spindle that normally allows only one cutting tool to be used at a time on a single work part.

external broaching

is performed on the outside surface of the work to create a certain cross-sectional shape on the surface

bar machine

spot facing

is similar to milling and is used to provide a flat machined surface on the work part in a localized area

speed lathe

is simpler in construction than the engine lathe; it has no carriage and cross-slide assembly, and therefore no leadscrew to drive the carriage

counterboring

provides a stepped hole, in which a larger diameter follows a smaller diameter partially into the hole

live center

rotates in a bearing in the tailstock, so that there is no relative rotation between the work and the live center; hence no friction between the center and the workpiece.

multiple-spindle drill

several drill spindles are connected together to drill multiple holes simultaneously into the work part

generating

the geometry of the work part is determined by the feed trajectory of the cutting tool. The path followed by the tool during its feed motion is imparted to the work surface in order to create shape.

computer numerical control (CNC)

the machine tool operations are controlled by a "program of instructions" consisting of alphanumeric code.

thread cutting

the pointed shape of the cutting tool determines the form of the threads, but the feed rate generates the threads.

straddle milling

the same as side milling, only cutting takes place on both sides of the work

forming

the shape of the part is created by the geometry of the cutting tool. In effect, the cutting edge of the tool has the reverse of the shape to be produced on the part surface

contour turning

the tool follows a curved or irregular path rather than a straight path, thus creating a contoured form in the turned part

form turning (forming)

the tool has a shape that is imparted to the work by plunging the tool radially into the part

taper turning

the tool is fed at an angle instead of parallel to the axis of workpiece rotation, thus creating a tapered cylinder or conical shape

cutoff

the tool is fed radially into the rotating work at some location along its length to cut off the end of the part

facing

the tool is fed radially into the rotating work on one end to create a flat surface on the end

slotting (slot milling)

the width of the cutter determines the width of the slot, but the feed motion creates the slot.

horizontal boring operation

the work is fixtured to a rotating spindle, and the tool is attached to a cantilevered boring bar that feeds into the work. OR the cutting tool is mounted on a boring bar that is supported and rotated between centers. The work is fastened to a worktable that feeds it past the tool.
