High-precision tool positioning is one of the fundamental requirements for the industry now-a-days. Earlier, tool positioning and its verification were done using sensors etc. In this paper, an algorithm has been proposed to increase the tool positioning accuracy by analyzing the information obtained using CCD camera. The images of lathe tool are used for carrying out the experiments. Firstly, ...

For every cubic foot of pine on southern pine sites, there is about 0.8 cubic foot of hardwood. The shaping-lathe headrig, now in the final stages of commercialization, is a key to utilizing these small mixed hardwoods for paYets and industrial lumber. Lathe residues in the form of flakes can be the raw material for a new major industry manufacturing exterior structural flakeboard competitive i...

The machine tool spindle provides the relative motion between the cutting tool and the workpiece which is necessary to perform a material removal operation. In turning, it is the physical link between the machine tool structure and the workpiece, while in processes like milling, drilling or grinding, it links the structure and the cutting tool. This work deals with design and analysis of Lathe ...

This paper deals with the study of machinability of GFRP composite tubes of different fiber orientation angle vary from 30 to 90. Machining studies were carried out on an all geared lathe using three different cutting tools: namely Carbide (K-20), Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) and Poly-Crystalline Diamond (PCD). Experiments were conducted based on the established Taguchi’s Design of Experiments (DO...

This report provides results recorded from the application of a coalescing plate separator to grinding and lathe coolant filtration. Use of the filter and normal recommended practices in monitoring coolants significantly extended coolant life, increased the tool life of carbide inserts and grinding wheels an average of 25'10, and resulted in cleaner machines and coolant sumps. The use of deioni...

AbstracL Features are application and viewer-dependent interpretations of geometry. This article demonstrates how the notion of features arising out of geometric data may be formalised as the semantics of a language of shape, using machining operations as an extended example. The syntax and semantics of formal languages are discussed, with particular reference to their use in design. A simplifi...

Article history: Received 6 October, 2015 Accepted 7 March 2016 Available online 8 March 2016 Dry friction depends on the surface topography which, in turn, is governed by machining parameters in addition to several other factors,. Therefore, in order to establish a qualitative relationship among these factors, the surface roughness and coefficient of static friction are measured for specimens ...

Developing technology and production needs are increasing the need for machinery metal sector. On lathe machine, is one of most widely used machines in sector, work accidents serious occupational diseases occur every year. In order to prevent this, it has become a necessity create an safety culture general. existing hazards possible small large enterprises necessary identify them first make eff...
