Theory:
A lathe is a tool that rotates the workpiece about an axis of rotation to perform
various operations such as cutting, knurling, drilling, falling, turning which tools that
are applied to the workpiece to create an object with symmetry about the axes.
a. Taper Turning:
✓ A taper is defined as a uniform change in the diameter of workpiece measured
along its length, taper may be expressed in 2 ways.
Department of Mechanical Engineering || College of Engineering – Guindy || Anna University : : Chennai – 25.
✓ Ratio of difference in diameter to the length in degrees of half the induced

angle.
✓ Taper turning is the operation of producing conical surfaces on the cylindrical
workpiece on lathe.
b. Knurling:
✓ Knurling is the process of producing a diamond shaped patterns (or)
impressions on the surface of the workpiece. It is used to give a good
gripping surface on a workpiece.
✓ A Knurling tool has two hundred steel rollers. The rollers have teeth out on
their cylindrical surface. The tool is held on the tool post and pressed against
the rotating work.
c. Thread Cutting:
✓ It is a process of producing helical groves on a cylindrical workpiece. When
tool rotates, it is automatically longitudinal by using lock out and lead screw
arrangement. A definite ratio between relations of headstock spindle and
longitudinal feed is found.
✓ The lead screw and spindle are connected by number of gears which called
change gears.
Procedure:
✓ The workpiece is fixed in the chuck.

✓ Cutting tool is fixed in the tool post.
✓ Step turning is performed on the workpiece and the diameter is reduced to 30mm
for 90mm length.
✓ Then the compound disc is rotated to 6-degree right side to perform RH Turning.
✓ Right Hand turning is performed over the length of 25mm in 5mm step of
feeding.

GEAR SHAPING
Ex. No. 03 Date: 11/03/2022
Aim:
To generate (shape) a gear from the given blank to the required shape using gear
shaping machine.
Apparatus required:
➢ Vernier caliper
➢ Gear shaping machine
➢ Spanner
➢ Cutter
➢ Blank or workpiece
Material required:
➢ Workpiece
➢ Cast iron
➢ Cutter blank
➢ High speed steel
Theory:
✓ In gear Shapers, for shaping the cutter is used. The cutter is hardened disc shaped
and slightly dished at the bottom to facilitate cutting. The tooth has desired tooth
profile and pressure angle.
✓ The cutter is reciprocating with the required cutting speed and fed radially
plunge it for correct teeth depth by means of a CAM.
✓ A relieving mechanism enables the cutter to clear the work on non-cutting or
return Stroke. The continuous generation motion is obtained by feeding cutter
to full depth and rotating the cutter and the workpiece slowly in the exact ratio
of their respective number of teeth by means of chains of gears including change
gears. It could be seen that since an involute gear will roll with any other
involute gear will roll with any other involute gear of some normal base point.
Hence this principle is utilized in the gear shaper, for spur gear the reciprocating
motion is made parallel to the work axis, but for single helical gear the direction
of the cutting stroke follows a helical path and the cutter itself is provided with
helical teeth.

Milling is the cutting operation that removes neutral by feeding work against a
rotating, cutter having single or multiple cutting edges. The tool used is a multiple point
cutting tool. The milling machine can be classified as
1. Vertical milling machine
2. Horizontal Milling machine
In a horizontal milling machine, the cutting tool is mounted on a horizontal

spindle across the worktable. The use of multipoint cutting tool is for cutting gear from
workpiece.
Working Principle:
The workpiece is held on the worktable of the machine, the table movement
controls the feed on the workpiece against the rotating cutter, the cutter is mounted on
a spindle and revolves at high speed. Except for rotation, it has no other motion. The
cutter tooth removes the neutral from the surface of the workpiece and desired shape is
produced.

✓ Set the speed and feed for machining. For giving depth of cut, the table is raised
till the periphery of the gear blank just touches the cutter.
✓ The Micrometer dial of vertical feed screw is set to zero at this position. Then
the table is raised further to give the required depth of cut.
✓ The machine is started and feed is given to the table to cut the first groove of the
blank.
✓ After the cut, the table is brought back to the starting position. Then the gear
blank is indexed for the next tooth space. This is continued till all the teeth are
cut.
✓ Dimensions of the gear teeth profile are checked using the gear tooth Vernier.

Machine Details:
Name : Vertical Milling Machine
Tool : End milling cutter (Multipoint tool)
ToolMaterial : High speed steel
Diameter : 16mm
Mechanism : Worm and Worm Wheel mechanism
Job Material : Cast Iron
Theory:
Milling is the maintenance process of using a rotor cutter to remove the material
from the material from the given workpiece by advancing (a feeding) the cutter into the
workpiece at a certain dissertation and the cutter may also be held at an angle relative
to the axis of the total. The word ‘contour’ defines an outline representing a bending the
shape or form of something.
Thus, the term contour milling refers to the machining of the required boundary
areas (marked with the help of tools) on the workpiece with the help of a rotary tool.
The tool used here is a multipoint cutting tool that rotates around its own axis is worm
and worm wheel mechanism, worm are special gears driver consisting of two elements.
1. Driving elements - screw (gear)

2. Driven element - helical (gear)
The driving element is the worm and the driven elements is the worm wheel. As
the worm rotates it is term rotates the worm wheel there by transmitting the power to
the other axis shaft rotates. This is the mechanism behind the rotatory motion of the
tool. In this machine, the cutting tool is mounted on a vertical spindle across the worm
table. Hence this is of a vertical milling machine type.
Procedure:
✓ To draw profile on the given job.

✓ The midpoint is punched using hammer.
✓ The workpiece is placed in the bed and the metal plate are kept for the different
thickness and the job is tightened.
✓ Using the compass and the marketing pin, the profile is drawn on the workpiece.

Aim:
To shape the required hexagonal prism from the given cylindrical stock using
shaping machine.
Apparatus Required:
➢ Marking gauge
➢ Divider
➢ Steel scale
➢ Hammer
➢ Wrench
Theory:
A shaper is a type of machine tool that can use linear relative motion between
the workpiece and a single point cutting tool to a machine a linear tool plate. Its cut is
analogous to that of a lathe except that is linear instead held in the tool holder, which is
mounted on the ram. The workpiece is highly held in rice or directly clamped on the
table. The ram requires and this cutting tool head in the tool holder moves forward and
backward over the workpiece. In a standard shaper cutting off material takes place
during the forward stroke of the ram between mechanisms.
1. Crank and slotted link quick return mechanism

2. While worth builds quick return mechanism crank and slotted link quick
return mechanism
In this mechanism, the ram is activated by a gear driver associated with the
electric motor first the electric motor drives the pinion gear. Next the pinion gear drives
the bull gear which rotates in opposite direction due to external gear machining.
An important point to be noted is that the forward cutting shoes will be slower
than whereas the reverse tail stroke will be faster and consequently saves time.
Procedure:
✓ Mark the side of hexagon in the given mild steel rod of 40 mm diameter using
chalk piece puncher steel and hammer.
✓ Fix the mild steel rod on the bench wise of shaper.
✓ Adjust the ram and shaper head such that the cutting tool lightly touches the
workpiece.
✓ Switch on the shaper.
✓ Shaping the mild steel rod by adjusting the handle at the side of using the down
feed depth of cut can be increased such that a flat surface is obtained.
✓ Stop the process until the material up to the marked line is reached.
✓ Remove the workpiece and fix it on the bench wise to that the workpiece material
is to be removed facing the cutting tool.
✓ Remove the materials on the other side of the workpiece by following the above
procedures.
✓ Finally, remove the workpiece from the bench wise and check for its surface

Theory:
Drilling is the cutting the field process that uses a drill to cut a hole of circular
cross section in solid materials. The drill pit is usually a rotating cutting tool of 10
multiplication. The drill pit pressed against the workpiece and is rotated and this forces
the cutting edge against the workpiece, cutting the chips from the hole as it is drilled
the universal drilling essentially consist of a spindle which turn the load which can be
advanced in work this automatically by hand. A workpiece which holds the workpiece
rigid in position.
Working Principle:
The rotating edge of drill exert a large force on workpiece and hole is drilled in
removal of metal by drilling.
Broaching is a machining operation that used a toothed tool called broach to

remove material. These are two types namely linear and rotatory. In linear broach run
linearly against workpiece.
Procedure:
✓ Workpiece is held in bed and heightened.

✓ Reference point is made on workpiece.
✓ Drilling operation term is set by level.

Theory:
Grinding is the operation of removing the metals by using rotating abrasive

wheels grinding is commonly used on a least iron and various type of steel as they can
be hold by the electromagnetic or simply magnetic commonly used on grinding machine
and don't melt in the wheel.
These cools the workpiece. It acts as a lubricant and reduce the friction between
the chips, workpiece and grinding wheel. It removes the chips from the constant area.
The grinding wheel used in this process is an expandable wheel used for various
grinding and abrasive machining separation. The use of fluids in a grinding process is
often necessary to cool and lubricant the wheel and the workpiece as well as remove
the chips product in the grinding process. The fluid used here is of water solute oil.
Important point to be noted that the rotation of the grinding wheel and that of the
workpiece are in opposite directions.
Procedure:
Surface Grinding:
✓ Place the workpiece made of mild steel or the given electromagnet.

✓ New magnetic, the electromagnetic bed by providing electric current and the
result in temporary attachments of workpiece on bed.
✓ The grinding tool is made to maintain a gap between the workpiece on bed.
✓ Now the machine bed is demagnetized and the workpiece is removed.
✓ Finally, the required surface is grinded the workpiece is obtained.
Cylindrical Grinding:
✓ Measure the diameter of the workpiece.

✓ Fix the job in the carrier (driven-dog) and place it in the machine.
✓ Switch on the machine.
✓ Make sure that the grinding wheel is touching the job and the scale is to be fixed
as zero.
✓ Then the rod is grinded by increasing the depth and giving the feed.
