Fixing linear positioning errors: General Industry Coverage
In a typical machine-tool-axis positioning system, the workpiece is mounted on a table that slides along flat, straight guide ways. The table may be supported on the guide ways by rolling elements or by a thin film of oil or grease. A screw controls the table position along the guide way.
Testing: The ups and downs of wheel performance when creep-feed grinding
Results from testing aluminum-oxide vitrified-bond wheels and diamond wheels in three different bond systems show the proper diamond roll dresser design, application methods and wheel specification can help manufacturing engineers achieve optimal results from continuous-dress, creep-feed (CDCF) grinding.
Vibrations indicate bearing damage: General Industry Coverage
Many machine tool spindles are supported in the housing by rolling-element bearings. Cutting forces, spindle unbalance and spindle preload impose cyclic loads on the bearing's balls and races. Over time, the cyclic loading produces fatigue failure, damaging the surfaces of races and balls.
Chuck the chips: Turning Performance
The process of displacing metal instead of cutting it is called many things. But whether they call it form tapping, cold form tapping, thread forming, cold roll forming, roll forming, thread rolling, roll tapping or cold roll tapping, many metalworking professionals are unfamiliar with it, according to Peter Gennuso, applications engineering supervisor for OSG Tap & Die Inc., Glendale Heights, Ill.
Plate Rolling Gets AI Assist
One of the most significant advantages of incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) into the plate rolling process is that it eliminates the need for conventional radius-measuring templates.
8620 Alloy Steel Retention Knobs
The use of 8620 ensures that the components will work harden over time, rather than becoming brittle as is the case with the use 9310 alloy steel. Single point threading ensures that the threads are balanced (lead-in/lead-out at 180 degrees) which is very difficult to achieve when rolling threads.
GN 753.1 Guide Rollers
The outer race of the ball bearing is embedded in the POM plastic of the guide roller during the molding process. Each roller is machined to precise dimensions for an exact runout, which makes cylindrical and convex shaping of the running surface possible.
GN 2492 Linear Guide Rail System
These guide rails are assembled from precisely matched components: linear guide rails GN 2492, the matching cam roller carriages GN 2494 and the separately available wipers of TPU plus the individual rollers with three different bore types.
Tool Tray for PACKOUT Modular Storage System
The PACKOUT Tool Tray features Stack or Store functionality, providing modular connectivity with any PACKOUT solution and storage within the Rolling Tool Chest, Rolling Tool Box, XL Tool Box, or the Large Tool Box. In addition, the Tool Tray has a customizable internal layout with Quick-Adjust Dividers, creating up to six separate storage compartments and allowing users to configure the layout that works for them.
M12 AIR-TIP Utility Nozzle
By incorporating cordless technology, Milwaukee improves the clean-up process with the M12 AIR-TIP Utility Nozzle. Powered by an M12 REDLITHIUM Battery, the power brush roll agitates debris for deep cleaning applications. For increased productivity, the tool allows for more clean-up in one pass compared to a standard floor vacuum attachment.
ESPRIT TNG 4.7 CAM Software
ESPRIT TNG now also enables manufacturers to perform face-milling operations with a unique "roll-in" lead-in strategy recommended by Sandvik Coromant to improve surface quality, reduce cycle time, and extend tool life.
CARTO 4.2 Software Suite
XM-60 has become the market leading solution for direct measurement of all six degrees of freedom (linear, vertical and horizontal straightness, pitch, yaw and roll) on any form of linear axis.
