  • Tiny Vise Edge Clamps Truly Exert Down Thrust Force on the Workpiece, to Prevent It from Lifting
    +44 (0)1204 699959 [email protected] www.hyquip.co.uk/web/index TINY VISE ™ EDGE CLAMPS BODY: 1018 STEEL, CARBURIZED-HARDENED, BLACK OXIDE FINISH THRUST WASHER: 1144 STEEL, HEAT TREATED, BLACK OXIDE FINISH FLAT-HEAD SOCKET SCREW: STEEL, BLACK OXIDE FINISH An important clamping development! These mini edge clamps grip the side of a workpiece to keep the top clear for machining. Patented design features a slotted countersink to provide strong, reliable clamping force with the easy turn of a hex wrench. These compact clamps are ideal for fixturing multiple parts, small or large. Each clamp has both a serrated face (for maximum gripping) and a smooth face (to avoid marring finished parts). These clamps look so simple, but work amazingly well, with major advantages over earlier designs. Flat Jaw Patent number 5.624.106. Made in USA. (Reversible, Serrated or Smooth) Clamping force is applied by positive screw action with the easy turn of a hex wrench (not with an unreliable, unsafe eccentric cam as Clamping force is applied by positive screw action with used in other designs). A high-strength Flat- the easy turn of a hex wrench. Head Socket Screw engages a mating offset countersink to exert strong clamping force. Much more durable than other designs. Only Tiny Vise Edge Clamps truly exert down thrust force on the workpiece, to prevent it from lifting. A thrust washer underneath the clamp engages a mating offset countersink to provide downward action. Patented design features a slotted countersink. Available in a wide range of sizes, from a miniature #8-32 thread size, up to a powerful 1”-8 thread size with 2500 lbs clamping force.

    International Journal of Engineering Research and Technology. ISSN 0974-3154 Volume 10, Number 1 (2017) © International Research Publication House http://www.irphouse.com Design and Development of Keyway Milling Attachmentfor Lathe Machine Indrajeet Baburao Shedbale Master Student, School of Mechanical and Building Sciences, VIT University, Vellore, Katpadi Road, Tamil Nadu, India. Amar S. Bhandare Assistant Professor, Department of Mechanical Engineering, ATS’s Sanjay Bhokare Group Of Institute, Miraj, India. Abstract axis of shaft and the vertical axis of end mill cutter are In manufacturing industry there are different types of perpendicular to each other; also the vertical axis of shaft and machining processes are required to convert raw material in to vertical axis of tool are coinciding with each other. final product. Some of machining process required separate machine to carry out machining of product. It means not only consumption of space and overall time increases but also expenses will increases. By developing the special attachment for machine will reduces consumption of time and space. Various operations like Turning, Drilling, Facing, slotting will be done on single machine. Instead of milling machine we are using the special attachment for lathe machine to machining of key way slot. In thispaperdiscussed aboutthemilling attachment for lathe machine through whichwe eliminated cost of slotting and milling. Machine operates through lathe machine. It consist of lathe machine slide, electric motor, power chuck, end mill cutter, dowel pin etc. Keywords:lathe machine, milling operations, end mill cutter, lathe machine slide, key way. Figure 1: Axis of Shaft and Axis of End mill cutter both are Introduction coincide with each other.

  • Selecting the 'Perfect'
    MWF | Special Section BEST PRACTICES Jerry P. Byers, CMFS Selecting the ‘perfect’ metalworking fluid In addition to fully understanding the operating conditions, be sure to question all assumptions about MWFs. Many of them are the tribological equivalent of old fairy tales. etalworking fluids (MWFs) are a key production Maid in the manufacture of metal parts, from seem- ingly simple items such as coins and wire, to complex objects such as medical devices and engines for aero- space applications. These fluids are used because it is more cost effective to run most operations with a fluid than without. The benefits include more high quality finished parts by the end of the shift with lower tool wear, reduced grinding wheel usage and less machine downtime. MWFs help maintain a constant temperature for the metal part, the tool and the machine—improving di- mensional stability of the parts produced. Temperature control is achieved through (1.) lubricants that reduce heat generation and (2.) the cooling action of the fluid that removes heat. The fluid is also used to carry metal particles (chips) away from the cutting zone to an area where they are separated and collected. The benefit for tool life is shown in Figure 1, a graph of tool wear vs. machining time for a turning operation where 390 aluminum is being machined with polycrys- talline diamond tooling under two conditions: either dry or with a semisynthetic MWF being applied. Notice that tool wear is greatly reduced and the time between Metalworking fluids are a key tool changes is dramatically extended when the fluid is applied.

  • Split-Top Roubo Bench Plans
    SPLIT-TOP ROUBO BENCH PLANS Design, Construction Notes and Techniques Copyright Benchcrafted 2009-2014 · No unauthorized reproduction or distribution. You may print copies for your own personal use only. 1 Roubo’s German Cabinetmaker’s Bench from “L’Art Du Menuisier” ~ Design ~ The Benchcrafted Split-Top Roubo Bench is largely based on the workbenches documented by French author André Roubo in his 18th-century monumental work “L’Art Du Menuisier” (“The Art of the Joiner”). The Split-Top bench design primarily grew out of Roubo’s German cabinetmaker’s bench documented in volume three of Roubo’s series. Author and bench historian Christopher Schwarz, who has re-popularized several classic bench designs of late, and most notably the Roubo, was also an influence through his research and writings. We built a version of Roubo’s German bench and it served as a platform from which the Split-Top Roubo was conceived. We were attracted to the massive nature of Roubo’s German design and were interested to see how the sliding leg vise in particular functioned in day-to-day use. From the start we opted to do away with the traditional sliding-block tail vise, with its pen- chant for sagging and subsequent frustration. In the process of the bench’s development the Benchcrafted Tail Vise emerged and it has proven to be an excellent workholding solution, solving all of the problems of traditional tail vises without sacrificing much in terms of function, i.e., the ability to clamp between open-front jaws. For all the aggrava- 2 tion that the Benchcrafted Tail Vise eliminates, that feature isn’t missed all that much.

  • Installing a Bench Vise Give Your Workbench the Holding Power It Deserves
    Installing a Bench Vise Give your workbench the holding power it deserves. By Craig Bentzley Let’s face it; a workbench This is the best approach for above. Regardless of the type of without vises is basically just an a face vise, because the entire mounting, have your vise(s) in assembly table. Vises provide the length of a board secured for hand before you start so you can muscle for securing workpieces edge work will contact the bench determine the size of the spacers, for planing, sawing, routing, edge for support and additional jaws, and hardware needed for and other tooling operations. clamping, as shown in the photo a trouble-free installation. Of the myriad commercial models, the venerable Record vise is one that has stood the Vise Locati on And Selecti on test of time, because it’s simple A vise’s locati on on the bench determines what it’s called. to install, easy to operate, Face vises are att ached on the front, or face, of the bench; end and designed to survive vises are installed on the end. The best benches have both, generations of use. Although but if you can only aff ord one, I’d go for a face vise initi ally. it’s no longer in production, Right-handers should mount a face vise at the far left of the several clones are available, bench’s front edge and an end vise on the end of the bench including the Eclipse vise, which at the foremost right-hand corner.
