Q

cutting the teeth in a spur gear is a type of ___ milling

A

form

22
Q

to mill spur gears you should use ___ cutters

A

special profile

23
Q

compute the outside diameter of a 30 tooth spur gear blank with a diametral pitch of six

A

5.333

24
Q

which of the following factors does not affect cutter selection for milling spur gears

A

whole tooth depth

25
Q

series of eight cutters each have been developed to cut gears with different numbers of teeth

A

diametral pitch

26
Q

to index the teeth of a large diameter gear use a

A

rotary table

27
Q

when measuring a newly cut gear over pins you should use a

A

micrometer

28
Q

to check spur gear tooth thickness at the pitch circle use a

A

gear tooth vernier caliper

29
Q

the distance between adjacent helices that are wound on a common cylinder is called the

A

helix pitch

30
Q

the lead of a helix is determined by the

A

milling machine lead

31
Q

to mill a helix you must use change gears to link the lead screw of the milling machine with the

A

dividing head worm shaft

32
Q

if the ratio of change gearing is 1:1 and the lead of the milling machine is 10in a helix milling would have a lead of

A

10in

33
Q

how many change gears usually make up a set

A

four

34
Q

in the change gear formula 40/40 x 24/60 how many teeth will the two driving gears each have

A

40 and 24

35
Q

in order to reverse the direction of a gear rotation so that you can mill either a right or left hand helix use an

A

idler gear

36
Q

when using simple angular indexing to mill 15 teeth into a cylindrical workpiece how far apart must you space each tooth

A

24 degrees

37
Q

in order to obtain the proper helix angle when milling a helical workpiece you must swivel the

A

machine table

38
Q

which of the following factors is not important for you to know about a helical gear you are

A

where it will be used

39
Q

when milling helical gear teeth you should not draw the cutter back through the work after a cut is complete because

A

you could damage the gear tooth surface

40
Q

the tooth dimensions of spur gears are described by circular pitch what measurement do you use to describe helical teeth gear

A

normal diameter pitch

41
Q

what function does a cam perform

A

they change the direction of motion of machine parts

42
Q

the follower in a nonpositive cam system would not be controlled by

A

a groove in the cam

43
Q

the distance that one cam lobe moves the follower from its the distance that one cam lobe moves the follower from its starting point as the cam rotates is the

A

cam rise

44
Q

the total distance that a lobe on a uniform ruse cam would move the follower if the lobe extended a full 360 is the.

A

cam lead

45
Q

when milling a plate cam you need a dividing head and a

A

vertical milling attachment

46
Q

when milling plate cams the dividing head spindle and the cutter cannot be

A

in the horizontal plane

47
Q

when milling a uniform rise cam with a short lead the angle at which you set the vertical milling attachment determines the correct setting for the

A

dividing head spindle

48
Q

on which side of the workpiece do you position the cutter when milling a short lead cam

A

lower

49
Q

if one lobe of uniform rise cam covers 120 degrees of the circumference and has a rise of.25in what is the cam lead

A

50
Q

when milling nonuniform rise cams you should use
