Q

Types of Lathes (turning machines)

A

Q

what are the 3 standard pint drill geometry angles

A
  1. conventional (118* for soft metals)
  2. long angle point (60-90* for non-ferrous materials)
  3. flat angle point (135* for harder metals)
29
Q

Work holding for drill presses can be claimed in any of the following:

A

– Vise - general purpose work holder with two jaws
– Fixture - work holding device that is usually custom-designed for the particular work part
– Drill jig – similar to fixture but also provides a means of guiding the tool during drilling

30
Q

reaming (type of drilling)

A

enlarges hole its not boring because it gives a good surface finish

31
Q

tapping (type of drilling)

A

Used to provide internal screw
threads on an existing hole
(its rpm is same as feed)

32
Q

Countersinking

A

tapered feature at the end of a hole
- used for flat head screws

33
Q

Counterboring

A

Enlarging of an existing hole at one end.
- used for head screws

34
Q

Spot facing

A

Smoothing, squaring, and/or flattening a surface (lets it touch end of hole if the shape is rounded)

35
Q

Upright Drill Press

A
  • good service finish
  • motion is limited
36
Q

Radial Drill Press

A
  • allows for more motion (rotates in and out)
  • not good accuracy in tolerance
37
Q

Drill Tapping Machines

A

makes threads

38
Q

Drill Multi spindle

A

allows for multiple workpieces at once

39
Q

Turret Drill Press

A

multiple cutting tools but u can only operate on one work piece

40
Q

explain rotation in milling

A
  • TOOL is rotating
  • axis of rotation is perpendicular to feed
  • multiple cutting edges
41
Q

What are the two types of milling

A
  1. Peripheral milling (aka plain milling)
  2. Face Milling
42
Q

What is peripheral milling

A

cutter axis parallel to the surface and cutting edges on the outside periphery of the cutter

43
Q

what is face milling

A

cutter axis is perpendicular to the surface being milled and cutting edges on both the end and outside periphery of the cutter

44
Q

What is peripheral - slab milling -

A

cutter width extends beyond the workpiece on both sides

45
Q

What is peripheral - slotting -

A

width of cutter is less than workpiece
width, creating a slot in the work

46
Q

variations of peripheral milling

A
  • teeth to the side - slide milling
  • two cutting teeth- straddle milling
  • more than two teeth - gang milling
  • cutting through entire thing- slitting
  • form or shape milling
47
Q

explain face milling

A
  • axis of rotation perpendicular to work piece surface
  • milled surface is flat and has no relation ship to the cutter
48
Q

Face milling variations

A
  • partial facing
  • end milling
  • surface contouring
49
Q

what is face milling - end milling -

A

it’s to the side (not side milling that’s for peripheral)

50
Q

what is face milling - profile milling -

A

outside periphery (boundary) of a
flat part is cut

51
Q

what is face milling - Surface Contouring -

A

Ball-nose cutter fed back and forth across work along a curvilinear path at close intervals to create a three dimensional surface form

51
Q

what is face milling - pocket milling -

A

used to mill shallow pockets into flat parts

52
Q

Conventional milling feed direction
(spins clockwise, fed left to right)

A
  • ship is thinnest at the start
  • less “shock” to cutter
  • less vibration and chatter
  • lifts the workpiece up (not efficient for thin samples)
53
Q

Climb milling feed direction
(spins clockwise, fed right to left)

A
  • chip is thick at the start
  • results in more shock to cutter
  • more vibration and chatter
  • holds work against table (can machine thin parts )
  • better surface finish
54
Q

knee and column milling machine

A

moves parallel in z axis and if head is rotated x axes
(looks like a human)

55
Q

Bed mill - horizontal spindle

A

used for heavier and larger materials

56
Q

milling operations - 4th axis

A

usually rotary - the tool or the work (on x or 2 axis) this expands the possibilities

57
Q

Mill-turn centers

A

one or both of the work piece or tool has to be rotatating

58
Q

Shaping and planing

A

LINEAR MOTION (NO ROTATION)
SINGLE POINT CUTTING TOOL
Shaping (feed provides work, speed is by tool)
Planning (feed provides speed, speed is by work)

59
Q

Broaching

A

in a single stroke, u get the final finish BUT u have to custom-make the broaching tool
- good surface finish and tolerance
- expensive, good for high volume

60
Q

Circular saws

A

used for linear shapes

61
Q

Band saw

A

– Irregular shapes
– Very versatile
– Profile cuts
– Internal cuts
– external configurations

62
Q

Hack saw

A

linear reciprocating motion of hack saw blade

63
Q

High speed machining (surface speed is faster)

A
  1. faster production rates
  2. shorter lead times
  3. reduce costs
  4. better finish
64
Q

what is DN ratio

A

(bearing bore diameter{mm})(max spindle speed - RPM {rev/min})
Between 500,000 and 1,000,000

65
Q

What is HP/RPM Ratio

A

hp/rpm ratio = horspower/max spindle speed (RPM)

66
Q

how to define High speed Machining (HSM)

A
  • DN ratio
  • HP/RPM Ratio
    – Higher production rates
    – Shorter lead times
    – Rather than functions of spindle speed
67
Q

requirement for high speed machining

A
  • “look ahead”, helps avoid “undershooting” and “Overshooting” tool path
  • Balanced cutting tools, toolholders, and
    spindles to minimize vibration
  • Coolant delivery systems that provide
    higher pressures than conventional
    machining
  • Chip control and removal systems to cope
    with much larger metal removal rates
