So, I was given a lathe that had electrical problems.
I sorted those problems, and I am now looking for some simple projects so I can learn the machine. My first thought is to turn some clutch pulleys out of brass. Do you have other suggestions? Attached thumbnail(s) ![]() |

Several factors in the machining of shafts.
1)The spindle rotates about it's center within 0.00005"/0.00008",under load.(the bearings are good) 2)The spindle is parallel to the bed in both axis. 3)The carriage moves true to the bed. 4)The cross feed saddle is square to the spindle. 5)The clearance gibs are adjusted to minimums. A tuned instrument is needed to make a correct shaft,adjust the machine to do so. Speeds and feeds for horsepower are the required knowledge. Keep a table poster above the lathe for reference,noting the cutting(sfm) (Surface Feet per Minute)speeds. A turned part in hardened metal can be finished to fine tolerances with these versatile attachments. http://www.micro-machine-shop.com/tool_post_grinder.htm http://www.cnccookbook.com/CCLatheTPGrinder.htm https://www.google.ca/#q=porsche+904+main+shaft https://www.google.ca/search?q=spherical+tu...RFdCJEQ_AUIBigB Learn something new every day,continuous learning. Turning costs money,never turn for free. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (edit:01/14/16) Quote:post#9 toolguy ....If not set up properly, no matter what you do, your finished project will have taper and be out of square and off center. Correctomundo. Pretty basic geometry,the setting up and fettling of the machinetool defines the results possible. Direct measurement and trial cuts are required,then your efforts will satisfy you and 'customers'. Nowadays,the price of indexable carbide tooling makes their use standard,tungsten and cobalt hss is perfect for delrin and bronze. The manual and drawings that came with the machine makes the repair and maintenance of it painless. The design of the headstock bearing may allow refurbishment,grinding a tighter clearance on a spacer ring. Make,year,model,ser# and the fx# of the manufacturer is handy. Never do repair work on the machine while under power,lockout rules apply. / |
