Tips for turning parts on manual lathes, part 2
As a follow-up to my April column, here are additional tips for enhancing the operation of a manual lathe.
Workholding for nonround parts: Turning Performance
When it comes to workholding, one size definitely does not fit all. For example, workholding setups for round parts have similarities to setups used for all other prismatic (nonround) parts, but the latter has unique challenges.
Linear motion via ballscrew drives
Linear motion of machine tool axes is often achieved using screws and nuts.
Cranking up feed rates: General Industry Coverage
I use resin- and metal-bond diamond wheels and used to manually stick them. Now our machine does it automatically and I don't have the "feel" to determine if the wheel is being stuck hard enough. Is there a way to know how fast I should stick?
Recognizing worthy suppliers: People & Companies
My relationship with suppliers as of late can be summed up as, "no news is good news." Even so, just as we like to receive gratitude and recognition from our customers, it's important to remember that our suppliers should be recognized and their value shouldn't be overlooked.
Bombarding ceramics: General Industry Coverage
A shot peening process that removes distortion from thin ceramic parts.
Flexible gear milling
A new method for producing gears on mill/turn machines
Replacement parts: Turning Performance
Ceramic parts help solve problems caused by metal and plastic implants.
Charge ahead: Industry Trends & Analysis
Managing energy costs and improving energy performance requires an ongoing commitment.
Let’s get together: Industry Trends & Analysis
After being offstage for many years, U.S. manufacturing had better be ready for the limelight. Another large research study has found that, not surprisingly, manufacturing is big—and it matters.
Under control: General Industry Coverage
Understanding and controlling wheel truing and dressing forces when rotary plunge dressing.
Starter kit: Drilling Performance
Some holemaking technologies have eliminated the need for spot drills, but they're still useful when the 'perfect' hole is required.
