Roll pin punches are designed with a small projection in the center of the pin tip to support the circumference of the roll pin. The tips of roll pin punches are not flat and should never be used on regular solid pins. If a roll pin punch is used on a solid pin, it will mar or mark the pin. If the end of a roll pin punch is damaged or deformed ...
A coiled spring pin, also known as a spiral pin, is a self retaining engineered fastener manufactured by roll forming metal strip into a spiral cross section of 2 + 1 ⁄ 4 coils. Coiled spring pins have a body diameter larger than the recommended hole diameter and chamfers on both ends to facilitate starting the pin into the hole.
The Frey mechanism uses a steel ball and an out-of-flat end for the intermediate pin to force the intermediate pin to cock at reset. This means the intermediate spring doesn't need a special end, but the high stresses at the contact with the steel ball can lead to brinelling of the intermediate pin end or the top of the punch by the ball.
Run-out has two main forms: [2] Radial run-out is caused by the tool being translated off the machine axis, still parallel. Radial run-out will measure the same all along the machine axis. Axial run-out is caused by the tool or component being at an angle to the axis. Axial run-out causes the tip of the tool or shaft to rotate off-centre ...
Titanium drilling. Drilling is a cutting process where a drill bit is spun to cut a hole of circular cross-section in solid materials. The drill bit is usually a rotary cutting tool, often multi-point. The bit is pressed against the work-piece and rotated at rates from hundreds to thousands of revolutions per minute.
A part's-eye view of a boring bar. Hole types: Blind hole (left), through hole (middle), interrupted hole (right). In machining, boring is the process of enlarging a hole that has already been drilled (or cast) by means of a single-point cutting tool (or of a boring head containing several such tools), such as in boring a gun barrel or an engine cylinder.
A safety wire is used to ensure proper security for a fastener. The wire needed is long enough to reach from a fixed location to a hole in the removable fastener, such as a pin — a clevis fastener, sometimes a linchpin or hitch-pin through a clevis yoke for instance — and the wire pulled back upon itself, parallel to its other end, then twisted, a single end inserted through a fastener ...
Parallels supporting a vee block and a workpiece. A parallel is a rectangular block of metal, commonly made from tool steel, stainless steel or cast iron, which has 2, [1] 4 or 6 faces ground or lapped to a precise surface finish.
