Study Notes
Manufacturing Steps
- Three major steps: obtain natural resources, produce industrial materials, make finished products.
Machining Operations
- Non-machining operations include any processes not utilizing machines.
Stock Specification
- Very thin stock is specified by gauge numbers.
Band Saw Uses
- Band saws perform three main functions: cut metal stock into shorter pieces, conduct rough cuts, and follow complex curves/patterns.
Horizontal Band Saw
- Features a blade that forms a continuous loop to cut material.
Vertical Band Saw
- Capable of cutting intricate curves and patterns in workpieces.
Safety Rules Around Machine Tools
- Always wear safety glasses.
- Avoid loose clothing.
- Remove jewelry like ties, watches, and rings.
- Secure long hair.
- Wear heavy-duty, preferably steel-toed, shoes; canvas shoes are unacceptable.
Blade Guides for Vertical Band Saw
- Set guides 3/8 to ½ inch above the stock's thickest point and no more than ½ inch above the workpiece's highest point.
Machine Safety Protocol
- If a blade breaks or disengages, immediately turn off the machine.
Cutting Tools
- Horizontal band saw is primarily used to cut raw stock into shorter lengths.
Layout Work
- Involves transferring data for machining operations.
Drill Press Function
- Mainly used to create holes in various materials.
Tool Condition
- Worn drilling tools should not be used to ensure safety and accuracy.
Unsafe Practices with Drill Press
- Unsafe actions include standing beside the drill press, stopping the spindle with hands, and allowing distractions during operation.
Twist Drill Components
- Parts include the shank, body, point, web, and tang.
Lubrication in Drilling
- Lubricants are applied where the drill penetrates the material.
Drill Press Setup Safety
- Improper mounting of the workpiece is an example of unsafe practice.
Reamers
- Defined by multiple cutting edges for precise hole finishing.
Countersinking
- Achieves a cone-shaped opening at the top of a drilled hole, allowing flathead screws to sit below the surface.
Counterbore Functionality
- Enlarges holes to a specific depth for fittings.
Counterbore Tool
- Characterized by having a pilot for precise hole enlargement.
Taps
- Resemble screws and are used to create internal threads in holes.
Chamfer Hole Purpose
- Enlarges the hole's opening to facilitate tap insertion.
Reamers' Capabilities
- Used to drill holes to precise sizes, remove minimal material, and smooth the hole's interior.
