THREADING INFORMATION NEW Q@éas. SIX-INCH LATHES KALAMAZOO, MICHIGANTHIS BOOK contains complete Information ‘essential for handling thread cutting and coil winding operations on the new Atlas Sicinch Lathes (Catalog Nos. 612 and 618)THREAD CUTTING ON THE NEW ATLAS SIX-INCH LATHE No phase of lathe operation is more interesting or profitable than the cutting of screws and threads; and no operation re- quires more care and study. The thread cutting range of the Atlas, is practically unlimited—a few sample threads are shown in Fig, 1. ‘This section deals with the two classes of thread cutting problems: (1) those connected with the change gear train and its proper set-up for cutting the various sizes of threads, and (2) the actual cutting of the many thread forms. IG. 1. A few ofthe thread tht can Be cat on the Ite Every Atlas lathe comes equipped with change gears and threading dial for cutting threads in the following standar National Coarse (U.S.S.), National Fine (S.A.E.), Acme, Square, and Whitworth. Gear set-ups for standard threads are shown on the pictorial threading chart on the inside of the change-gear guard (Fig. 2). Figure 4 is an actual-size reproduction of this threading chart. Gear data for odd-size threads are given in Table I, page 38 An attachment (No. M6-735) is available to cut standard metric threads from .§ to 3 mm. 34 MANUAL OF LATHE OPERATION Lat ond of athe. with eee guard READING THE GEAR CHARTS To simplify gear set-ups, the three different gear bracket posi- tions have been assigned letters as shown in Figure 3, These designations will be found on the lathe threading chart as well as, in all of the following gear data POSITION A J POSITION 8 POSITION C 1G. 3. Gear bracket poston. ‘The outer end of the longest bracket slot is called “Position A,” the inner portion of the same slot is “Position B.” The short slot adjacent to the long slot is Position “C." ‘These gear positions are approximate—they will vary with the size and number of the gears composing the train (see diagrams in Fig. 4 and on the following pages). SLEEVE AND BUSHING ASSEMBLY Before setting up a train of change gears, examine one of the sleeve and bushing assemblies which hold the change gears to the gear bracket (Fig. 5). Each sleeve is long enough to accommo- date two gears and has a double key which fits into the keyways in the gears. The sleeve and two gears fit over a bushing, and the assembly is bolted to the gear bracket, The washer is a bearing for the outer end of the sleeve.THREAD CUTTING THREADING CHART FOR ATLAS 6-INCH LATHES THREADING CHART eee eg) TSU CT Fd) Tia LANK Bcc ere!

When only one of two gears on a sleeve meshes with the other gears in the train, it is called an ‘dler.".‘The smaller gear, which is mounted on the sleeve with an idler, is ealled a “spacer” gear and does not mesh with any gear in the tiain (see Fig. 10) GEAR CLEARANCE When setting up the gear train, be sure to al- low sufficient clearance GLEARANCE between ~two meshing gears (Fig. 6). Gear clearance does not reduce the accuracy of a thread cut- ting operation, because all play in the gears is taken up in one di mA rection. A method often used to ob- oper fr dear, tain proper gear clearance is: (1) Place a shect of thick writing paper between the teeth of the two meshing gears, (2) tighten gears in position, and (3) remove paper. A small amount of grease, preferably graphite grease, applied to gear teeth will often aid in obtaining smoother, more quiet operation. THE REVERSING MECHANISM Right hand threads are cut with the carriage traveling toward the headstock. Left hand threads are cut with the carriage travel ing toward the tailstock. ‘Whenever a new gear train has been set up, shift the tumbler gear lever to test the direction of the carriage travel. Because some set-ups are simple-geared and some are compounded, the carriage travel may be to the right for one set-up and to the left for another set-up, even though the lever is shifted to the same position in each case, Always test the direction of carriage travel before starting to eut a thread. CLEARANCE.THREAD CUTTING 7 After the tumbler gear lever has been shifted to the proper posi- tion, ig should not be moved until the thread has been completed. This is especially important because a shift in the lever position destroys the relation between the threading dial and the lathe spindle end causes splitting of the thread. GEAR TRAINS FOR STANDARD THREADS ‘The following pages give detailed instructions for mounting gears for the more common thread sizes. Refer to these pages and the lathe threading chart when malking set-ups. “Back Position” of a sleeve or the serew stub means the position foward the headstock, “Front Position” is the position aay from the headstock. The gear bracket is tightened in position by locking the nut on the front fof the gear bracket.

THREAD CUTTING TERMS ere iL MAJOR DIAMETER—The largest diameter of the thread of either the screw or the nut. MINOR DIAMETER—The smallest diameter of the thread of either the screw or the nut. PITCH DIAMETER—On a straight screw thread, the diam- eter of an imaginary cylinder, the surface of which would pass through the threads at such points as to make equal the width of the threads and the width of the spaces cut by the surface of the cylinder, Tn Figure 13 the lines representing the diameter “PD,” are located so as to make spaces “‘aa” and “bb” equal. On a 60° ‘Vee-type thread and on National Form threads, the pitch diameter is simply the major diameter less the depth of the thread, DEPTH OF THREAD—One-half the difference between the major diameter and the minor diameter. In lathe work. the DOUBLE DEPTH OF THREAD, which is the difference be-R MANUAL OF LATHE OPERATION tween the major and minor diameters, is a quite common term. ‘Thus, knowing the major diameter required, subtracting from it the double depth of thread for the required pitch, gives the minor diameter. A table giving double depths of National Form threads for different pitches will be found on page 42. PITCH—The distance from a point on a screw thread to a corresponding point on the next thread, measured parallel to the axis (see Fig. 13). = Pitch of thread in inches = ————— 2 Namiber of threads per Tach THREADS PER INCH—The number of complete threads in the space of one inch. In Figure 13, the distance between points X and ¥ represents one inch, and there are five threads per inch, = Number of threads per inch = LEAD — The dis- tance a screw thread advances axially in one turn, On a single thread screw, the lead and the piteh are iden- tical; on a double thread screw, the lead is twice the pitch; on a triple thread screw the lead is three times the pitch, ete. ube the ste Figure 14 shows a double thread screw. ‘There are two separate grooves of helices around the screw, each of which advances twice the piteh in a single turn. If the pitch of this screw is 3 inch, the lead is 14 inch.THREAD CUTTING 13 THREAD CUTTING TOOLS ‘Thread cutting tools must be ground to the form of thread desired. Clearance must be increased because of the rapid advance | of the tool. Otherwise the grinding of thread cutting tools fol- lows the same general rules as the grinding of external tools. Clean, accurate threads are impossible unless one side and the front of the tool are given enough clearance to permit the tool to advance as the work revolves. Figure 15 shows how a tool which is satisfactory for cutting a fine thread may not have enough clearance to cut a coarse thread. “Hogging” and rough threads are usually the result of insufficient clearance. ‘Thread tools are ground nearly lat across the top. When the tool is fed into the work at an angle, as with National Form threads, the tool should have a few degrees of side rake. When the tool is fed into the work at right angles, as with square threads, it should have a small amount of back rake.

These threads are 60° Vee threads with the points cut off soTHREAD CUTTING. Is NATIONAL, FORM NUT THREADS CUT wit v TOOL: that the depth is 759% of the depth of a Vee thread of the same pitch. Figure 18 shows a tool bit ground for cutting sharp pointed Vee threads. This tool will also cut an exact National Form Serew thread when the point is ground flat to fit the proper slot in the National Form thread gauge (Fig. 19). Generally. however, the tool is left sharp pointed and the thread is cut with the regulation Vee bottom, but the top is left with the proper amount of flat. Fig ure 20 shows how a screw cut in this manner fits a National Form nut. Only when desiring ab- solute maximum strength is the tool ground to the exact National Form. ‘The screw pitch gauge shown in Figure 21 is used to determine the exact pitch of a (> V-thread serew or nut. ‘This FIG. 82 Thresding Toot gauge has thirty separate leaves with pitches between 4 and 42 per inch.

The beginner often finds it helpful to turn the grooves C and D (Big. 24) to the exact minor diameter. The size of the minor diameter depends up- con the form of the threading tool. If the thread is to be cut with a sharp pointed 60° tool, the minor diameter is equal to the major diameter less the Vee-Form Double Depth of Thread (‘Table TV, page 42) or the major diam- eter less 1.732 X piteh, Tha tool bit has been formed es- pecially for a National Form SfedP dhs eed — thread, the correct minorTHREAD CUTTING a7 diameter is listed in Table V or Table VI, pages 43 and 44 (major diameter less 1.299 X pitch). Groove C permits accurate measurement with a micrometer of the bottom of the thread. When the tool point has cut to the depth of the groove C, the thread has been finished. Groove D permits the work to revolve freely at the end of each cut. As soon as the beginner has become alittle more familiar with threading practice, these grooves can be omitted. ros com omey | SEQPEEITE wos cue? SETTING THE 60° THREADING TOOL After the work has been properly prepared for threading, set the compound rest at the 29° angle shown in Figure 25. Mount the tool holder in the tool post so that the point of the tool is exact- ly on the lathe center line—tighten tool post screw just enough to hold the tool holder. ‘Then use a center or thread gauge (Fig. 26) to set the tool point at an exact right angle to the work as shown in Figure 27. Tap lightly on the back of the tool holder when bringing it into position. A piece of white paper placed under the center gauge will aid in checking the ft of the tool in the Vee of the gauge. With the tool point at an exact right angle to the work, recheck the center line position and t-"-/2n tool post screw. THE CUTTING OP} ‘ATION Before starting the actual cutting of a right hand thread, be sure that the change gear train is assembled properly and that the reverse lever is in the correct position to feed the carriage toward the headstock. Adjust belts for a speed of 54 R.P.M, (see Instruc- tions and Parts List, page 1) Set the compound rest approximately in the center of its ways18 MANUAL OF LATHE OPERATION and advance the cross feed so that it is set at 0 with the tool close to the work. With the point of the tool about an inch to the right of the start of the thread, advance the tool with the compound rest so that the first cut will be about .003 inch. Start the lathe and engage the half-nut lever on the carriage as described on page 19. ‘The 29° angle of the compound rest should allow the back of the tool to take a fine chasing cut on the finished side of the thread while the cutting edge does the work of forming the thread. Apply plenty of lubricant to the work. When the point of the tool reaches the groove at the end of the thread (groove D in Figure 24), raise the half-nut lever on the carriage, back out the cross feed a turn or two, and return the carriage by hand to the starting point, Advance the cross feed to its original position at 0, advance the compound rest for the desired depth of cut, and engage the half-nut lever for the second cut. All feeding is done with the compound rest, Follow the same routine on all succeed ing cuts. DEPTH OF CUT: The first two or three cuts should be ap- proximately .005 inch advance of the compound feed and the fol- lowing cuts gradually reduced until the last few cuts taken are only .001 inch or even .0005 inch. A final pass through the thread with no advance whatever will often clean up any remaining high spots. Take the last cuts with extreme care. Heavier cuts can be taken on soft metals such as brass or aluminum, but if a fine finish is desired, the last cuts should be very light LUBRICANTS: When cutting steel use liberal quantities of a commercial cutting compound, lard oil or equivalent. With other metals use the type of lubricant recommended for general turning operations. THREAD CUTTING SPEEDS: The beginner in thread cut- ting should adjust belts to obtain a speed of 54 R.P.M. (Instructions, page 1), This slow speed allows plenty of time to engage and disengage the half-nut lever. After more experience in cutting threads, higher speeds can be used up to approximately 1/3 or 1/2 the speeds recommended for turning the various materials.THREAD CUTTING 19 THE THREADING DIAL The threading dial (Figs. 28 and 29) performs an important function by indicating the proper time to engage the half-nut lever so that the tool will enter the same groove of the thread for each cut. Without the threading dial it would be necessary to reverse the motor at the end of each cut and “wind” the tool out of the thread — a cumbersome method little yao. a8 used except when cutting metric and special rect fractional threads (page 28). RULES FOR THE USE OF TH ‘When cutting an even-numbered thread (such as 12, 14, 16, 32, ete, per inch), engage the half-nut lever for the first cut when the stationary mark on the outside of the threading dial is in line with any one of the four marks fon the rotating portion of the dial.

TOP PREPARING THE WORK FOR INTERNAL NATIONAL FORM THREADS Work to he threaded internally is prepared much in the same manner as for cutting an external thread (see page 16). The work is first bored to the exact minor diameter. Beginners often turn grooves C and D to the exact major diameter as shown in Figure PRECAUTIONS IN CUTTING THREADS Never disengage the half-nut lever in the middle of the thread Without first backing out the tool with the cross feed. Do not shift the tumbler gear lever until the thread is com pleted. If the work must be removed for checking the fit of # cut or for any other reason, be sure to replace the work with the tail Of the Inthe dog in the seme slot of the face plate 2s before Never remove work held in a chuck until the thread is com- pleted. When a long, heavy thread is being turned, considerable heat may be generated, causing the work to expand. If the work is mounted between centers, stop the lathe at regular intervals and check the tightness of the work against the centers. Take 2 light cut after checking in this way, because the work may Ihave shifted a trifle in relation to the position of the tool bit. Tf the tool has 2 tendency to “hog in.” check tool clearance.THREAD CUTTING a 31, IF the thread is to be cat with a sharp pointed 60° tool, the Inajor diameter is equal to the minor diameter plas the Veecorm Double Depth of Thread (Table 1V, page 42).

This outer groove ‘COMPOUND TO BE SET AT 29° SSE Sopahedl see {Be pola he tel is not necessary if the thread is being cut to fit a certain screw— the proper depth is then reached when the screw fits the thread correctly. Groove D should be about twice as wide as the thread pitch and a few thousandths larger than the major diameter. T! groove provides a brief interval at the end of each cut during which the work can revolve freely while the half-nut lever is disengaged. The grooves C and D can be omitted after the aperator has learned internal thread cutting operations.MANUAL OF LATHE OPERATION CUTTING INTERNAL THREADS. ‘The internat cutting operation is the same as the cutting of an external thread (page 17), with the following exceptions: First, the 29° angle of the compound rest is measured from the opposite side of the graduated base (Fig. 32). Second, the compound rest feed is foward the operator for cutting and the cross feed is advanced to clear the work. Due to the spring of an internal tool, cuts should be much lighter than when cutting external threads. The last finish cuts should be taken without changing the setting of the compound rest, CUTTING LEFT HAND THREADS Figure 33 shows the cutting of a left hand thread. The direc- tion of carriage feed is toward the tailstock. Gear set-ups and general cutting procedure are exactly the same as for right hand threads with the changes in tool angles made necessary by the dif- ferent direction of catriage travel. Clearance angles and side rake should be the opposite of these shown in Figure 18. In cut ting left hand 60° type threads, the compound rest should be set at 29° in the direction shown in Figure 33 which is opposite that for right hand threads.THREAD CUTTING 23 CUTTING ACME THREADS we.s10) P0082" MINGR DIA MAJOR DIA=(2¥025) ‘The Acme screw thread (Fig. 34) is often found in power transmissions, where heavy loads necessitate close-fitting threads. Another common application is in the lead screws and feed screws of precision machine tools. ‘The lead screw and cross feed screw of the Atlas lathe have Acme threads. got SECTIONAA = ZA sive cueanance24 MANUAL OF LATHE OPERATION Figures 36 and 37 show the proper tool forms for cutting external and internal Acme threads. ‘The forms must be checked with the Acme thread gauge (Fig. 35) during the custing process. ‘The various steps in the cutting of an Acme thread are similar to those for 60° type threads (pages 13 to 19). Set the compound rest at 0° and advance compound feed after cut, returning cross feed each time to the same setting. Take lighter cuts than with 60° type threads because the total cutting face of the tool is longer. CUTTING SQUARE THREADS ‘The square thread (Fig. 38) is rarely cut because it is a diffi cult job and results in a thread which is not so steong as the Acme. It is cut, however, for many vise and clamp screws and other worm-screw forms, The Acme thread is recommended for all such applications—it is stronger, easier to cut, and capable of closer fits, Im the cutting of a square thread with a large lead, the tool angles must be absolutely correct. Clearance should be allowed on two sides, tapering from both the top and front of the tool (see Figs. 39 and 41). Figure 40 explains how the important angle must be determined. EH External square threads should be cut to the minor diamete. plus about .005 inch, internal square threads to the major diam- eter plus about .005 inch. ‘The additional .005 inch allows a small clearance at the bottom of the thread, which helps to compensate for any small inaccuracies in the tool or cutting. The tool must be fed directly into the work with the cross feedTHREAD CUTTING 25 (or compound rest feed), and care must be taken to avoid chatter and “hogging-in.” The simplest method is to set the compound rest at 0°, feed in with the compound, and back out and return the tool with the cross feed. Take very light cuts when turning or boring a square thread.
