Specials: Combination Tools SPECIALS There are some situations in which a standard tool just doesn’t fit the job. When a complicated application or other limitations are introduced, a custom tool can provide the unique capabilities required. COMPLEX TOOLS In some applications, the end result required for the job cannot physically be completed with a single, standard tool. Utilizing custom tools may provide the most effective solution. EXAMPLE: Intersecting Form Tool By dividing the required forms and applying them to alternating flutes, a customer can manufacture an inside corner with a zero radius. Without the use of the intersecting form tool, a perfectly sharp inside corner would be physically impossible to manufacture. MODIFIED STANDARDS Standard tools provide an immediate manufacturing solution. In some cases, the tool needed may be similar to a stocked tool, but requires some changes to improve efficiencies. EXAMPLE: Modified Drill By making small modifications to a standard drill, the modified tool can save machine time and reduce manufacturing costs. In addition, by converting the standard drill into a customized step drill, the lead time can be significantly less than if opting for a newly designed custom tool. COMBINATION TOOLS When several tools are blended into one, the resulting combination tool can complete all of the necessary tasks in one pass. By reducing the number of tools needed to complete the tasks, the number of variables and potential variances are reduced, allowing the combination tool to perform with greater precision and repeatability. Specials: Combination Tools THREAD MILL COUNTERBORE COMBO Produces a thread in a pre-drilled hole Makes a at-bottomed hole Thread Mill + Counterbore EXAMPLE: Combination Thread Mill and Counterbore By combining several tools used in a work station, a single tool can complete multiple tasks. Not only does this make room for other tools in the work station, but it reduces the number of tool changes to complete the same work. Additionally, the total cost difference between a single combination tool vs. multiple tools can reduce the overall tool costs by 20-30%. 82 MADE IN THE USA Contact Us: (320) 455-0535 / [email protected] / www.mitgi.us Contact Us: (320) 455-0535 / [email protected] / www.mitgi.us MADE IN THE USA ORDERING CUSTOM TOOLS The process to get exactly the right tool you need does not have to be complicated.

  • Manufacturing Glossary
    MANUFACTURING GLOSSARY Aging – A change in the properties of certain metals and alloys that occurs at ambient or moderately elevated temperatures after a hot-working operation or a heat-treatment (quench aging in ferrous alloys, natural or artificial aging in ferrous and nonferrous alloys) or after a cold-working operation (strain aging). The change in properties is often, but not always, due to a phase change (precipitation), but never involves a change in chemical composition of the metal or alloy. Abrasive – Garnet, emery, carborundum, aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, diamond, cubic boron nitride, or other material in various grit sizes used for grinding, lapping, polishing, honing, pressure blasting, and other operations. Each abrasive particle acts like a tiny, single-point tool that cuts a small chip; with hundreds of thousands of points doing so, high metal-removal rates are possible while providing a good finish. Abrasive Band – Diamond- or other abrasive-coated endless band fitted to a special band machine for machining hard-to-cut materials. Abrasive Belt – Abrasive-coated belt used for production finishing, deburring, and similar functions.See coated abrasive. Abrasive Cutoff Disc – Blade-like disc with abrasive particles that parts stock in a slicing motion. Abrasive Cutoff Machine, Saw – Machine that uses blade-like discs impregnated with abrasive particles to cut/part stock. See saw, sawing machine. Abrasive Flow Machining – Finishing operation for holes, inaccessible areas, or restricted passages. Done by clamping the part in a fixture, then extruding semisolid abrasive media through the passage. Often, multiple parts are loaded into a single fixture and finished simultaneously. Abrasive Machining – Various grinding, honing, lapping, and polishing operations that utilize abrasive particles to impart new shapes, improve finishes, and part stock by removing metal or other material.See grinding.

  • Grinding Machine Construction Types of Grinders
    Grinding machine A grinding machine is a machine tool used for producing very fine finishes or making very light cuts, using an abrasive wheel as the cutting device. This wheel can be made up of various sizes and types of stones, diamonds or of inorganic materials. For machines used to reduce particle size in materials processing see grinding. Construction The grinding machine consists of a power driven grinding wheel spinning at the required speed (which is determined by the wheel’s diameter and manufacturer’s rating, usually by a formula) and a bed with a fixture to guide and hold the work-piece. The grinding head can be controlled to travel across a fixed work piece or the workpiece can be moved whilst the grind head stays in a fixed position. Very fine control of the grinding head or tables position is possible using a vernier calibrated hand wheel, or using the features of NC or CNC controls. Grinding machines remove material from the workpiece by abrasion, which can generate substantial amounts of heat; they therefore incorporate a coolant to cool the workpiece so that it does not overheat and go outside its tolerance. The coolant also benefits the machinist as the heat generated may cause burns in some cases. In very high-precision grinding machines (most cylindrical and surface grinders) the final grinding stages are usually set up so that they remove about 2/10000mm (less than 1/100000 in) per pass - this generates so little heat that even with no coolant, the temperature rise is negligible. Types of grinders These machines include the Belt grinder, which is usually used as a machining method to process metals and other materials, with the aid of coated abrasives.

And defining what makes a cutting tool complex can be challenging too. “A complex cutting tool is generally defined by the tool profile and its tolerances,” said Paul Ehrlich, senior applications engineer for grinding machine builder United Grinding North America Inc., Miamisburg, Ohio. “You really need to take both of those parameters into consideration, because you might have a wide open geometry with a tolerance of two or three thousandths, and that’s not a big deal, but an odd shape, even with a looser tolerance, would be complex.” The Walter Helitronic Vision grinding machine produces rotationally symmetrical tools and parts with complex 1 of 7 4/8/2015 8:57 AM Professional profiles | Cutting Tool Engineering | April 2015 http://www.ctemag.com/aa_pages/2015/150404-ToolGrinding.html geometries.

Bill Freese, president of grinding machine builder Rush Machinery Inc., Rushville, N.Y., concurred, adding that multifunction tools, which may feature geometries intended to serve multiple purposes, are also complex. Toolmaker and machine tool builder Star Cutter Co., Farmington Hills, Mich., expands the definition of complex to encompass anything outside of its normal range, noted Paul Schulte, manager of advanced technology. “We view ‘complex’ as a tool with more than one diameter or a tolerance that is tighter than our off-the-shelf products,” he explained.

  • Semi-Solid Slurry Formation Via Liquid Metal
    SEMI-SOLID SLURRY FORMATION VIA LIQUID METAL MIXING A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Materials Science and Engineering July 2003 by Matthew M. Findon ________________________________________ APPROVED: Diran Apelian, Howmet Professor of Engineering, Advisor Richard D. Sisson, Jr., Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering Program Head ii Abstract New, economical semi-solid metal (SSM) processes rely on forced convection during solidification to influence non-dendritic growth. The fundamental mechanisms that produce SSM microstructures in the presence of forced convection (due to fluid flow) are not fully understood. The objective of this work is to elucidate these mechanisms through the use of a new semi-solid slurry-making technique. Employing an apparatus developed at WPI, two alloy melts are mixed within a static reactor that induces convection and rapid cooling. Experiments carried out with this apparatus, named the “Continuous Rheoconversion Process” (CRP), result in globular semi-solid microstructures throughout a wide range of processing conditions. These conditions include the superheat in the melts before mixing, cooling rate of the slurry through the SSM range, and the presence or absence of inoculants in the melts. The results comprise repeatable sets of semi-solid microstructures having fine particle size and shape factors approaching unity. Even in the absence of melt inoculants, uniform distributions of α-Al particle sizes of about 60µm are attainable. Entrapped liquid is not present in the majority of the samples obtained with the CRP, and irregular particles that form in the process are of a limited distribution.
