We are a welding company and our sub contract machinist is having problems achieving a consistent finish with a spiral raised face we have clad. The flange is approximately 2300mm in diameter. OD limit of raised face machining is 1850mm, ID limit 1650. Due to its size rotation is extremely slow...
Thanks for the reply. However the piston is fully enclosed in the vice stock itself and does not have any external lines or hoses. Im not sure how we would actually be able to attach a pressure gauge to it.
The chamber is preloaded by a stack of Belleville spring washers, so Im wondering if...
My girlfriend of almost 4 years isn't a nurse (shock horror!) but does work in a hospital laboratory testing all sorts of horribleness which she loves to discuss at inopportune moments (right before dinner is not a good time to reveal the day's tests on a sample that was.... I wont go into it.)...
We currently use 2 Homge hydraulic machine vices on our Hurco milling machines. They were a considerable investment some years ago and replacing these now would cost around £800 GBP. The problem we are experiencing is that they do not seem to get up to pressure.
The vice winds in manually on...
It is possible to determine reliability from OEE data.
I am in the process of determining the Overall Equipment Effectiveness of 6 machines in our factory. I issue daily time recording sheets which is a simple table with time along the x axis and duties/operations along the y axis and at 15...
