Turning 600mm Steel Ring into Excavator Final Drive Motor part | Machining & milling
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2024
- This video is a job we did of turning a large 600mm diameter steel plate ring into a final drive floating seal carrier for a Hitachi EX1900 mining excavator final drive motor. We are using our TM-26120G centre lathe and BM-63VE milling machine. The shop made "Go Go gadget extendo jaws", Kurtis made for jobs just like this that have a large diameter but need full access to the internal diameter for machining.

I love that you're machining parts for a lot of the machines i used to work on. It makes the videos very relatable
Ah this was for the final drive I was rebuilding. The old ring was well and truly rusted in and bent trying to get it out. I suggested getting a new one made. Nice work.
Love your videos but I like the ones that you do commentary more

One of the most rewarding things about this craft is that you take a piece of ugly rusted rough steel and when you are finished , it is a shiny, precise, beautiful piece that is useful. That is something to be proud of.I did this type of work for over 50 years. I would really like it when a customer would return with more work, and give positive feedback on the last job. It seems to me that you know what you are doing because you do it similar to the way I would do it.
Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming. I really enjoy them.
6.4K+👍's up CEE thank you for sharing this great video with us all
Coming from an old hi pressure line welder I admire your expertise. 👍👍
I love your videos and I am absolutely fine with the music.
My taste.. I prefer the actual shop sounds, not the music.
Awork of Art as always
Great work team.
I must say, I prefer your new style of narration, sarcasm and bloopers...but the at the end of the day, your products are top notch regardless.
Great work and excellent technique. Please keep the making these videos!
this is amazing work and is so needed. I've noticed some remarks on other videos that it's cheaper for you'll to make the part and it's faster than ordering an original part from the manufacturer of the machine needing the repair. Very interesting!!! Keep it up as these videos are very enlightening and entertaining. So much skill in this shop, thank you!!!
Hey mate cheers appreciate you watching the videos! 😎👍
Beautiful work, The great thing about being a maker is that if you don't have what you need, you can make it.
Spot on mate! Thanks for watching and commenting 😎👍
my thoughts exactly, and it wouldn’t surprise me if Kurtis did the maintenance work on the company truck’s brake rotors and brake drums too
Assisto todos os seus vídeos, é fantástico o seu trabalho 👍👍👏👏, sou o Luiz Antônio e Moro na cidade de Uberlândia - Minas Gerais - Brasil.
Exelente trabajo como siempre
Would be interesting to see how you get location and index for the holes. Super work as usual!!
Looks like he made a PCD scratch mark while it was in the lathe...and then I'm guessing he used a pair of dividers to get the correct spacing between holes...(there's a formula in the 'engineering black book' to get the correct spacing)....then used a centre punch and centre drill etc etc.
@@brendan0loughlin419 probably used a DRO on the mill? You tell it the number of holes and it gives you the coordinates. It's probably the best feature of a DRO on a XY mill.
@@wizrom3046 judging by the way he has his blocks and clamps set up , I don't think he's using that method.i believe that the work piece is probably too big for that mill to drill the holes in one set up.
He may also be using an old work piece as a template to mark out hole locations.its not obvious weather he is working from a drawing or reverse engineering from an old work piece.
@@brendan0loughlin419 you might be right.
We can see the workspace is not big enough for one DRO circle setup, but all you need are two fixed clamps, then the job can be rotated after doing a few holes.
You use the DRO hole circle function, drill some of the holes, then rotate the job pressed against the 2 fixed reference points (which keeps it circular aligned). Then align the job with the quill and endmill in the last hole, and repeat. Thats how I would have done it.
Please add my voice to those who want to hear the sounds of the machinery making swarf rather than the robot music. Cheers mate.
great work. must be a lot cheaper to have you fabricate it, than to buy a new piece.
Nice!!
Awesome video!
Hey there thanks appreciate you watching! Cheers, Kurtis
Παρά πολύ ωραίες δουλειές.Παρακολουθω από καιρό της εργασίες σας. Μπράβο. Δουλεύω 50 χρόνια τόρνο.
Where do you guys get the prints to make the parts to ? Surely the manufacture wouldn't give them out .
I just love BIG. When the part just clears the ways by .060 or .030 and a nice workable TQ100 flame cut plate awaits it's rebirth into a beautiful new piece to get a piece of machinery back in motion is sooooo satisfying. Just can't be beat. Love the jaw extensions. Thanks folks, this is just great !
I really enjoy this channel,because I work in a workshop like that and I make the same kind of jobs.....I am conventional or manual machinist....thank you for sharing this amazing videos.....best regards from Canada....🇨🇦👍🏾💪🏾
Nice work Kurtis.
This part reminds me of something i was looking to manufacture.
Very similar in size but the price vs volume sort of killed the job.
As you know customers want prices down with more volume.
By the time i purchased the material plus machining.
I think it worked out i would be making around $ 20 per hour ????
I will try to find a pic and post it of Insta to give you some idea of what the part looked like.
I think i might have mentioned this part to you before ??
But anyway i will post the pic to show you anyway.
Making one like this one would be more profitable for sure.
Thanks for posting video,s of your work always good to see what your up to.
All the best, Peter.
Hey Peter yes I recall you mentioning about that job and part when we first did this on Instagram! Would be good to see a pic. Haha yes always got to try and keep customers happy. Thanks for watching really appreciate it! Cheers, Kurtis 😎👍
Kurtis, notice you are not using the quick change tool post? my old girl had one since they were first invented by the Swiss
I love your videos, excep for the music, but that's just a personal preference.
Hey mate thanks for watching & supporting! We're getting alot of feedback about the music and will keep that in mind. Cheers
Thanks for taking the time to entertain and teach us, glads from Argentina
I agree other than the music...
Rob peters, yes I konow, but if he explains whats he's doing it eould be better, so, if you dont have something better to comment, shut up
I preferer the sounds of machining.....but all is well.
This is the only kind of ASMR videos I will watch.
Thanks for watching!
Didn’t you have just like 5000 subscribers just the other day!...way to go!
Hey mate thanks yeah 2 weeks ago we had about 500 subscribers. Bloody crazy!
Great content, please lose the stupid music.. The chips make their own 😉
Awesome vids man.
Enjoy watching them with my boys.
This might be a crazy question- By chance do you know fellow Aussie, Demolition Dave? Stay safe.
Sorry I’m a bit taken by your work - why machine this instead of using an original spare part is there a cost saving - may be a stupid question but I though it may be of remoteness I.e. wil take days to get there?
Hey mate you're spot on. That component was USD$6K and 4-6 weeks away. We made this for a fraction of the price in 2 days.
Jesus i should get my.machining done in Australia just knowing the original was 6k most machine shops in the USA wouldnt let it go for under 4500 usd cheapest
I love watching how a rough and rusty chunk of metal becoming a useful piece of finely machined part.
You and me both! Thanks for watching mate
Well you gotta be happy with those results Kurtis. Part came out looking amazingly 👍
Hey Aaron appreciate you watching mate! Cheers Kurtis
300mm? Thats like 2 feet..Can we know what lathe your using here?..
My brother Chris and I used to work in a chrome shop, and you’re bringing back some good memories for us thanks! Keep up the awesome work.
Swarf is a high risk for dog paws!
KURTIS I'M SO GLAD YOU ARE NOT PLAYING THIS MUSIC IN YOUR LATER VIDEOS, IT'S CERTAINLY NOT COMPATABLE WITH LATHE WORK OR ANY OTHER SHOP DETAILS...
Watching these videos are like therapy for me;) Best Regards from Roland in Sweden
Man I love watching the process you use in machining the parts, on these vids. I wish I could spend a bit of time at your shop as an apprentice learning how to do that type of work. But I'm too old and suck at math so I'll have to settle for your uploads.
Where is the dog where’s the dog
Nice, you should show the clocking up part as that is way more of a set up than busting holes ..
Looks like he made a PCD scratch mark while it was in the lathe...and then I'm guessing he used a pair of dividers to get the correct spacing between holes...(there's a formula in the 'engineering black book' to get the correct spacing)....then used a centre punch and centre drill etc etc.
Cool how you take a rusty piece and make it pretty! Good job!
Hey Dan thanks mate appreciate it! 😎👍
I love the ingenuity. Using the left hand turning tool in that orientation to reach the OD !
I love the videos and the work you do. I took Metal Shop in High school in the late 1970s and have always loved the smell and the sounds associated with it. I'm a Biomedical/Forensic Photographer, so I know very little about what you do, and I find it fascinating. I always have a lot of questions, but I'm not even sure of what questions to ask or how to ask them. I know some of the terminology and parts of the lathe, and that's about it. The music that is added to these videos makes me want to do bad things to myself and anyone near me. I guess you couldn't use any Rick Astley due to copyright laws. Lol! "Never gonna give you up!" Just kidding. You're singing it in your head right now, aren't you? Lol! It's just annoying to me, and I know it's my problem, but I'm just offering my opinion. I know how to work the mute button, and I will continue to watch, regardless.
Cheers, thanks for sharing, be careful, and keep up the good work!
Hey mate thanks for watching and commenting appreciate all your feedback! 😎👊💥
Ok here is how to talk to us machinists (I’m a deluded machinist I have all the gear - top notch stuff but no talent and no machinist balls like this guy who is a legend) talk in terms of five millionths of an inch, carbide cutter inserts, hot metal chips flying, stick welding, tig welding and the melt pool,etc etc , these professionals will see straight through you but the deluded ones like me will nod knowingly.
Dont put "music" just the sounds and mister cuss mouth..G
Cannot stand the music any more. Good Bye!
👋🤣 see ya
Ron Cartwright. Hey Ronnie, if it annoys you so much why wouldn't you simply turn the volume off and enjoy the video? It's not rocket science😳😳😳😳
Nice channel nice music nice staffy ( in some vids ). 🇬🇧
Please, always record with your phone in Landscape - horizontal, sideways on, not portrait. Fill the whole TV screen with picture.
Go Go Gadget .... NICE and made me smile. Some real nice work mate. " What do you mean we can't hold that ring??? " Hold my beer ;)
Bloody fantastic work and fantastic camera work - are you guys getting the vids done professionally I’m not taking the piss seriously these are really good
Thanks very much, would you believe I do all the videoing using my Samsung galaxy S8 phone and an iPhone 8 for timelapse recording! That's it haha I enjoy doing all the footage and do the editing using Filmora9! It's kind of my creative outlet and really appreciate your comment! 😄 Karen (Kurtis' better half)
It's obvious that you've got happy customers! Who wouldn't be happy with a part like that? :)
I wish you would kill the elevator sound track, it does not enhance the video. just makes me mute it.
Hey mate thanks for the feedback! 😎👍
Music put me off viewing
I always find myself surprised at how far out of true your raw stock is, and how much of a transformation it goes through in your well-trained hands. Well done once again, mates!
Hey Nick cheers mate thanks for watching and supporting!
OMG, that music sucks.
Added noise - yukk! It would be bearable if it wasn't in your face (ears, more like it!) I don't want to hit mute in case I miss some explanation of what is happening, which, as in all of your videos, is of great interest - i.e., "How in the hot place can they do that?!" or "How come that cutter doesn't self-destruct in thirty seconds?!"
Hey mate yeah these earlier videos weren't originally planned for UA-cam and we have had to cover up our workshop radio music to avoid copyright strikes. I don't give any commentary in these earlier vids but got a lot of feedback so all our newer videos have some 😎👍
Just stumbled over this old video, was looking for latest I will find the blamed thing though. Anyways no talking on the older vids, much prefer the later format where you talk🤪🏴
How I wish I'd had cameras and technology.... Just the machines(manual)... No disrespect but nothing remotely new here... Standard practice, skill and knowledge learnt from masters
Maybe slow the speeds.?.. Tool life and all that...
Did not like the repetitive music and lack of commentary. would have been nice to know more about the part and what caused the need to make a new one.
Pretty amazing without an indexing head. Lots of number crunching.
I watch and enjoy your videos, but I will stop watching if the music continues.
👍
Love the channel, not a fan of the music. Makes it look like a different channel. Love the sound of the mill
It seem like starting from a smaller piece of material would be have been much more beneficial!
Soz, prefer the chat to be honest..
Awesome video, ive watched some of your stuff and i have one question. How come you don't have a quick change tool post. I think production shop like yours it would be beneficial.
I ask because i have the same one as u and its painful changing out tools because i have a dogs breakfast for tool selection.
Hey Bob thanks for watching mate appreciate the support. I personally am not a fan of the quick change tool post, haven't found one rigid enough for me here in Aussie that I would change my machines over. I've got a good range of tools and easy enough when they need changing 😎👍
I was going to say rigidity
Everything good, but where is the safety officer?)
Our earlier vids weren't really planned for UA-cam so we made do with the footage we had and he missed out on the screen time!
What material is that? And if you don’t mind, what would a job like this cost about? Love doing machining work, it is extremely satisfying work. Thanks for posting!
My dad was Captain in charge of training and to maintain the equipment on the Chula Vista fire dept for 33 years. I remember when one of the fire trucks puked a water pump, it was a Waukasha inline six gasoline motor that had been out of production and there was no replacement pump available, so he and I cast the body out of aluminum and cast an impeller and machined it on his home built milling machine, He retired in 1985 and passed away 6 years ago. I have talked to several Chula Vista firefighters and they ALL knew his name and who he was, a profound legacy.
Kurtis, you might consider taking on an apprentice or two. Your skills NEED to be taught and paid forward, I know, I lived it and know how important it is to mentor the next generation.
Respect from Morocco
Cheers thanks for watching
I watched for 2:12 because the music. Not sure who you are trying to impress with it but I sure hate it. Please just let the lathe sing.
Hey mate thanks for the feedback definitely don't give a fark about impressing anyone as you can tell hahaa. Yes we've had lots of feedback about the shithouse music and my misses who does the videos and editing is making improvement for our videos moving forward. Most of these first videos we didn't actually plan to use the footage for UA-cam and have had to cover up our workshop radio music that was playing in most of the footage so we don't get Copyright strikes. The video going up tomorrow has plenty of lathe singing! Cheers, Kurtis
I'm so happy to hear this. You make the most amazing stuff and I love watching this channel. I know it may sound pretty but the music just kills it. Did not know the copyright stuff. I will be more tolerant. Thank you for taking the time to reply.
Kurtis dont discount those cheap garden sprayers for coolant around mills etc.They work really well.E
Good job, but in my opinion, with rough roughing - like in the last video - too little removed at once. Removing the outer layer at once protects the turning tool more from wear out. 8-10 millimeters depending on the material on the diameter should not be a problem with this machine. Hey, this is a damn stable machine, use it to produce real chips, let it smoke mate...
Did you have to buy new calipers for this project??? haha I am just curious.....
We have been able to get a good knowledge about lathe..thanks...if possible bring a video about the lathe machines which are operated by you
Another amazing fabrication !!!!!! Looks great as always !!!!!!!!!!! When you have time show off some more of your hand made shop tools , that's entertaining to me Brother .
Your videos are WAY better when you narrate. Much more interesting when you discuss setup and purpose.
If you grind some of the cutting edge back on the drill bit it won't make all those spirals. Just comes out in chips. Mark
Man I miss large part machining, I don't suppose you're hiring LOL
Haha sorry mate not hiring but know where to ask when we are! 🤣👍
Yeah definitely not the place to walk bare foot
👍👍👍🤝
Respect From Morocco
Cheers mate 😎👊💥
Stop the Music. Please. I want to hear the machinery working.
Excellent video well done top job top man🇬🇧😷🇬🇧😷🇬🇧
Thanks Phil! You must have watched every video now?! Haha appreciate the support 😎👊💥
@@CuttingEdgeEngineering it's nice to see a master at work 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
What camera are you using that gives such good slow motion shots?
It's a Samsung Galaxy S8 phone 🤣
IDGAFWYA this Man is amazing at what he does and the PUP is still the star of the show
👋 👍 🙃 Greetings from Tanglefoot, Texas, USA!
Hi I like the big steel you use. Please show the set up and talk about the tools and speeds etc not endless machining and sleepy music.
Machine sounds yes,music no.unneeded.
Great Video! Thanks for sharing and Stay Safe Guys!
The music is distracting.
