Machining a cast iron Motor Pedestal
Переглядів 2363 роки тому
Start out by leveling the casting and clamping it to the table. The entire part is a raw casting so there aren’t any good smooth working surfaces to start with. Shimming it at what ever spot gets it level, and then clamp it right on top of the shimmed blocks. The screws from your table clamp set are used to make everything more rigid to eliminate vibration. After that, you can cut a flat refere...

    Well done for grinding the set off the teeth another buggered blade. You only need to grind off the weld that passes through the guides, 3/8" guides for 1/2" blade. any weld left on the teeth area wear off when cutting. Hope this helps. Also advisable to do extra annealing, after doing the center anneal, shift the blade about 1/4" each way and anneal again. This will give an anneal width of about 3/8, and be kinder on the blade. Regards from Australia.

    There is virtually no difference in finish betwen the two. Face mills don't wreck your spindle bearings though. If you are determined to remove machining marks, a quick buzz over with a random orbital sander and scotchbrite takes seconds.

    • @makersmachining5408
      @makersmachining5408 3 роки тому

      Hi R.B., Thanks for your question. Actually Carbide is made to withstand heat. By design, the heat stays with the chips, and as the carbide gets dull they get hot and then that also transfers to the work piece. Keep an eye on how the cut is going. If things get hot, switch to a sharp insert. In some cases putting coolant on these kind of cuts will create thermal shock to the carbide which may break down the cutting edges. This project was only making a couple pieces, but if you were running them all day long, you might take a different approach. All the tool manufacturers used to see who could take the heaviest cut, but in the world of CNC, now the thinking is to make shallower cuts at a faster rate, which saves wear and tear on your machine - especially spindle bearings. "Dry Cutting" is also been the direction we have gone....spraying coolant on a cutter that is spinning fast and kicking out hot chips can create a fog in the shop. We put in a vacuum Air Handler to suck up the mist, but by changing to dry cuts, we don't have that problem and air quality is not even an issue. Didn't take long to figure that out. A lathe really atomizes the coolant into a mist because of hitting the jaws in a high RPM chuck. A good chip load and steady feed will peel the material right off. Machine rigidity is also important for carbide life. Carbide can cut almost anything, but if you have a loose insert or vibration, or turn it on backwards, it will chip right away. Carbides have come a long way in that there is a carbide insert for every application of material or hardness. Tooling suppliers can really help if you have a difficult material to machine...just ask. That block was S-7 tool steel which is made to be "shock resisting" in it's final application.

    @jaysilverheals4445 3 роки тому

    yes I threw out my fly cutters 30 years ago and I simply use a shell mill. for critical surfaces however take out all but one insert to finish such as on critical mold surfaces. by leaving all the inserts in the z pressure is too much and you will notice the surface is not as good combined with when the cutter goes off the edge the pressure of the 2 or 3 inserts is released and the final insert will dig down into the part on the edges. This effect is real and VERY pronounced such as with 6 insert cutters especially if they have a wiper flat because that wiper flat can add up 1/4 of flat scrubbing--work hardening and destroying the surface and also eliminating the chance to feed in the z with accuracy. another trick if using one insert to finish is to take a diamond knife lap and stone off slightly the wiper flat you will be astonished at the surface and the ability to cut to tenths on thickness also on mold surfaces or surfaces that must be polished there will be almost no work hardened layer.

      Hi KW, That's actually a SECO cutter on a CAT 30 shank. Might be called an Octomill cutter and holds 4 inserts. The inserts are Octagons (obviously). Over the inserts it measures 3" diameter, but the circle that it makes at the bottom is about 2-1/2" diameter. I couldn't read the printing on the body of the cutter anymore because it's been around a little while. We haven't changed inserts in a long time, but if you turn the spindle on backwards, and try to cut that way, you'll be replacing all of them. No clue what the price was. Sometime SECO (and other tool companies) will give away the holder (or a reduced price) if you buy a certain amount of inserts. Google "Octomill" and SECO to see what comes up. Good luck and thanks for the question.

The machine has a CAT 30 end mill holder in there, and the end mill is held in place with a set screw that locks on the flat that comes on the end mill. You are correct about an R-8 collet. End mills can pull out of them with heavy cuts and dull cutters, which also heats up the part you are machining.

      Hi Johnny, What specific questions do you have? You have to allow for the metal to shrink as the casting cools down. Different metals/materials move a different amount. There needs to be a draft angle on the sides of the pattern so it can be taken out of the sand mold with out damaging the shape of the opening, same with the cores. Do you have any local pattern shops to confer with? Would be good for you to go to a foundry also. They have certain things required to make parts.

    Adding a little more information about this project: Socket Head Cap Screws are made of an alloy steel, in this case. These are the toughest grade of screw - Grade 8 or DIN 12.9 for metric. They are made of an alloy steel and hardened to around 38 Rockwell (Rc). They have a tensile strength of 170,000 PSI. * Metallurgy is the prevalent study of these materials, strengths and hardness, and very important in manufacturing, especially now with traceability of all goods that we use. Screws of all styles are made of many materials, depending on their final use. * The threads were cut longer by using a "Chasing Die" or "Thread Repairing Die". When using one of these dies, the cut only goes from one side, which has a lead angle, so the threads can gradually cut in to the material (the opposite side doesn't have that lead angle). These dies would be made from hardened carbon steel or high speed steel, because they have to be significantly harder than the bolt material (more metallurgy). They are commonly available ---- Buy "Made in USA" !
