Manufacturing Processes
Module 1 Classification of Metal Removal Processes and Machine tools Version 2 ME IIT, Kharagpur Lesson 2 Basic working principle, configuration, specification and classification of machine tools Version 2 ME IIT, Kharagpur Instructional Objectives At the end of this lesson, the students should be able to : (a) Describe the basic functional principles of machine tools (i) Illustrate the concept of Generatrix and Directrix (ii) Demonstrate Tool – work motions (iii) Give idea about machine tool drives (b) Show configuration of basic machine tools and state their uses (c) Give examples of machine tools - specification (d) Classify machine tools broadly. Basic functional principles of machine tool operations Machine Tools produce desired geometrical surfaces on solid bodies (preformed blanks) and for that they are basically comprised of; • Devices for firmly holding the tool and work • Drives for providing power and motions to the tool and work • Kinematic system to transmit motion and power from the sources to the tool-work • Automation and control systems • Structural body to support and accommodate those systems with sufficient strength and rigidity. For material removal by machining, the work and the tool need relative movements and those motions and required power are derived from the power source(s) and transmitted through the kinematic system(s) comprised of a number and type of mechanisms. (i) Concept of Generatrix and Directrix • Generation of flat surface The principle is shown in Fig. 2.1 where on a flat plain a straight line called Generatrix (G) is traversed in a perpendicular direction called Directrix (D) resulting a flat surface. • Generation of cylindrical surfaces The principles of production of various cylindrical surfaces (of revolution) are shown in Fig. -
Machining Accuracy of Machine Tools
Technical Information Machining Accuracy of Machine Tools Productivity and accuracy of machine tools are important competition aspects. Rapidly changing operating conditions for machine tools, however, make it diffi cult to increase productivity and accuracy. In the manufacture of parts, increasingly small batch sizes have to be produced economically, and yet accurately. In the aerospace industry, maximum cutting capacity is needed for the roughing processes, whereas the subsequent fi nishing processes must be executed with maximum precision. For milling high-quality molds, high material removal rates are required during roughing and excellent surface quality must be obtained after fi nishing. At the same time, maximum contouring feed rates are necessary to realize the required minimum distances between the paths within acceptable machining times. Thermal accuracy of machine tools is becoming increasingly important considering the strongly varying operating conditions in manufacturing. Especially with small production batches that require constantly changing machining tasks, a thermally stable condition cannot be reached. At the same time, the accuracy of the fi rst workpiece is becoming very important for the profi tability of production orders. Constant changes between drilling, roughing and fi nishing operations contribute to the fl uctuations in the thermal condition of a machine tool. During the roughing operations, the milling rates increase to values above 80 %, whereas values below 10 % are reached during fi nishing operations. The increasingly high accelerations and feed rates cause heating of the recirculating ball screw in linear feed drives. Position measurement in the feed drives therefore plays a central role in stabilizing the thermal behavior of machine tools. -
Building a Battle Station Model by Russell Barnes
Building a Battle Station Model By Russell Barnes I. Introduction The summer is usually a pretty difficult time for me to work in my workshop. Chores abound around the house and there is seemingly some-thing to do almost every day that precludes any useful time spent in the workshop. The summer of 2004 was no different. By the time late July rolled around, I was desperate. I had not made anything for over a month. Something had to be done. What to do? Then it hit me. I was looking over the latest Model Expo catalogue and saw they still offered kit models of small battle stations. Not wanting to build a kit, I saw the potential for a quick scratch built project. Over the next two weeks I built a battle station model that turned out to be quite a conversation piece. As fate would have it, that model was destroyed when Hurricane Katrina washed away the local museum. I have decided to replace the battle station model, but it occurred to me that others might benefit from my experience having built it. So, I redrew the plans, making some improve-ments, and decided to set down a guide to building the model. I am not an expert and I make no claim that my methods are the only way to build the model. Someone building from these plans should view my words as a collection of helpful hints rather than a map to follow in order to arrive at a desired result. I envision this project as an introduction to scratch building. -

Vibrations in Metal Cutting Measurement, Analysis and Reduction
Vibrations in Metal Cutting Measurement, Analysis and Reduction Linus Pettersson Ronneby, March 2002 Department of Telecommunications and Signal Processing Blekinge Institute of Technology 372 25 Ronneby, Sweden c Linus Pettersson Licentiate Dissertation Series No. 01/02 ISSN 1650-2140 ISBN 91-7295-008-0 Published 2002 Printed by Kaserntryckeriet AB Karlskrona 2002 Sweden v Abstract Vibration and noise in metal cutting are ubiquitous problems in the workshop. The turning operation is one kind of metal cutting that exhibits vibration related problems. Today the industry aims at smaller tolerances in surface finish. Harder regulations in terms of the noise levels in the operator environment are also central. One step towards a solution to the noise and vibration problems is to investigate what kind of vibrations that are present in a turning operation. The vibrations in a boring operation have been put under scrutiny in the first part of this thesis. Analytical models have been compared with experimental results and the vibration pattern has been determined. The second part of the thesis deals with active vibration control in external turning operations. By embedding a piezo-ceramic actuator and an accelerometer into a tool holder it was possible to obtain a solution that can be fitted in a standard lathe. The control system consists of the active tool holder, a control system based on the filtered-X LMS algorithm and an amplifier designed for capacitive loads. The vibration level using this technique can be reduced by as much as 40 dB during an external turning operation. vii Preface The work presented in this licentiate thesis has been performed at the department of Telecommunications and Signal Processing at Blekinge Institute of Technology. -

DRAFT – Subject to NIST approval 1.5 IMPACTS OF AUTOMATION ON PRECISION1 M. Alkan Donmez and Johannes A. Soons Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory National Institute of Standards and Technology Gaithersburg, MD 20899 ABSTRACT Automation has significant impacts on the economy and the development and use of technology. In this section, the impacts of automation on precision, which directly influences science, technology, and the economy, are discussed. As automation enables improved precision, precision also improves automation. Followed by the definition of precision and the factors affecting precision, the relationship between precision and automation is described. This section concludes with specific examples of how automation has improved the precision of manufacturing processes and manufactured products over the last decades. 1.5.1 What is precision Precision is the closeness of agreement between a series of individual measurements, values, or results. For a manufacturing process, precision describes how well the process is capable of producing products with identical properties. The properties of interest can be the dimensions of the product, its shape, surface finish, color, weight, etc. For a device or instrument, precision describes the invariance of its output when operated with the same set of inputs. Measurement precision is defined by the International Vocabulary of Metrology [1] as the "closeness of agreement between indications obtained by replicate measurements on the same or similar objects under specified conditions." In this definition, the "specified conditions" describe whether precision is associated with the repeatability or the reproducibility of the measurement process. Repeatability is the closeness of the agreement between results of successive measurements of the same quantity carried out under the same conditions. -

Accordingly, experimental and theoretical approach are performed to check new adjustable drive motor of the modified forging machine to achieve a gross available energy to deform the specimens preventing damage of the forging machine. During the forging experiments, two screw friction presses (as-received and modified) are used to validate the theoretical approach. The modified press exhibits an increase of 51% of gross energy and 11% of maximum load capacity compare to the as-received press. This method is used to improve the effective of the forging process avoiding excessive loads that could promote machine failure. Therefore, a low-cost and easy to implement methodology is proposed to determine the energy and load capacity of a screw friction press to forge different specimen quantities with symmetry pattern configurations. -
