- Double Friction Countershaft
- Multiple Disc Type
- four tapped holes for attaching flanged tools. The turret is automatically indexed by the
backward movement of the slide. A large steel stud upon which it revolves, holds the
turret firmly to its seat. The stud is tapered, providing adjustment for wear, and is
bored so that stock can pass through the turret. This construction allows short stiff
tools to be used. A lock bolt operates vertically into hardened and ground taper
bushings and is located at the front end of the slide almost directly under the working
tool.
- Eight power feeds are obtained through a gear box, and are engaged and disengaged by
a friction clutch at the saddle. Independent adjustable stops operate for each turret face.
These can be set to throw out the power feed at any point desired.
- Carriage
- The carriage is provided with eight power longitudinal feeds and eight power cross
feeds. Six independent adjustable stops carried on a stop roll throw out the longitudinal
feed. In direction of feed, the carriage is independent of the turret. The cross-slide is
fitted with a large graduated dial and adjustable indicators for accurately gauging the
depth of cut. When heavy forming cuts are taken the carriage may be locked to the bed
by means of a binder handle.
- A square turret and a tool post are mounted on the cross slide. A second tool post
which can be substituted for the square turret is also furnished.
- The turret is indexed without lifting from its seat.
- Perfect alignment and adjustments are assured by hardened and ground Tapered
wearing surfaces. This feature is patented and makes possible accurate duplication of
work.
- Taper and chasing attachments are furnished as extras. These greatly increase the
working range of the machine and permit finishing on this Turret Lathe work for which
engine lathes were formerly required.
- Taper Attachment
- The taper attachment will turn tapers up to 3 inches to the foot, in lengths of 6 inches.
The tool block of this attachment slides on a base which is fitted to the cross slide.
When the cross-slide is put in motion longitudinally for cutting the taper, the tool block
is guided by a plate installed at the back of the machine. The operation of the square
and hexagon turrets is not affected by the installation of the taper attachment.
- Chasing Attachment
- The chasing attachment for cutting threads from 3 to 32 pitch, operates by means of a
leader and follower, quick return being effected by a leader threaded in the opposite
direction. A micrometer screw attached to the cross slide provides a fine adjustment for
the depth of cut. A single lever controls the followers for both leaders, thus governing
the chasing feed and the quick return for the tool. When ordering leaders and followers,
specify pitch desired.
- Countershaft
- A newly designed multiple friction disc countershaft is part of the equipment of the
geared friction head machine. This countershaft meets fully the exacting conditions of
present day high speed manufacturing, in a manner not possible with other designs.
- The shock of reversing is absorbed by the hardened steel plates which make up the
clutch.
- A tight and loose pulley countershaft accompanies the all geared head model.
- Tight and Loose Pulley Countershaft
