midterm Flashcards
the first thing when operating a machine tool is to determine how you will stop it prior to turning it on.
true
a lathe..?
rotates the part and the tool is fixed in the tool post and tool holder
the spindle has to turn in the counter clockwise direction for a chip to be created on the lathe (looking from the tail stock end)
true
facing on the lathe removes material
from the ends of the stock
the RPM that was recommended in the video for facing the ¾” stock was
800 RPM
turning removes material
from the diameter of the stock
the depth of cut that was recommended for both turning and facing was
.020 to .025 thousandths of an inch
what is the distance the tool travels during one revolution of the part in Inches per revolution?
feed
which of the following cutting tool material will you choose for high productivity turning application on steel
carbide
carbide inserts have low hardness compared to high speed steel
false
the cutting tool used in the lathe videos was made of carbide material
true
for chamfering on the late we utilized the compound slide
true
the tailstock on the lathe spins the drill chuck (Jacobs chuck)
false
we used the live center in the tailstock to
support the part during the turning process
we used rough passes to
remove material from our part rapidly to save time
we used finish passes on the lathe to
create smooth surfaces that we can measure to
an example of a single point cutting tool is a lathe turning tool
true
we used the process turning to change the diameter from ¾” down to ½”
true
the lathe used in the video was an example of an engine lathe
true
you should always wear safety glasses while working in the machining lab
duh
the measurement .100 is best communicated to a machinist as
one hundred thousandths of an inch
the measurement ½” is best communicated to a machinist as
50 hundredths of an inch
layout die or bluing is used in machining to
create a contrast so you can see scribed layout lines easier
we would use a height gauge to
accurately scribe reference lines on our part
