This document describes the development of a multi-purpose keyway attachment for lathes. The attachment allows for the machining of internal and external keyways and can be used in small workshops and job shops for non-standard or low volume production work. It utilizes a cam and follower mechanism connected to an arbor to provide reciprocating motion to the cutting tool, enabling keyway machining in a single stroke. The attachment provides an alternative to conventional machines for some machining applications.

– In present various conventional machines are used for
producing internal key way operations. – These machines are having some advantages and limitations over project mechanism. – Milling is a machining operation in which a work part is fed past a rotating cylindrical tool with multiple cutting edges. INTRODUCTION • The axis of rotation of the cutting tool is perpendicular to the direction of feed. • Owing to the variety of shapes possible and its high production rates, milling is one of the most versatile and widely used machining operations. • Broaching is a machining process for removal of a layer of material of desired width and depth usually in one stroke by a slender rod or bar type cutter having a series of cutting edges with gradually increased protrusion. • Broaching enables remove the whole material in one stroke only by the gradually rising teeth of the cutter called broach. OBJECTIVE OF PROJECT • The conventional machines are very high production rate, high dimensional and form accuracy and surface finish of the product and it is extremely suitable and economic for mass production. • An attachment is developed to create internal & external keyway. • This attachment can be used for maintenance purpose in small workshops, medium scale industries as well as job shop production and work having less number of volume production and non-standard jobs. MODEL DIAGRAM MATERIAL 1) Cam 2) Follower 3) Housing 4) Cam Guide 5) Arbor 6) Boring bar 7) Follower pin 8) Key METHODOLOGY • The motor power is in the form of rotary motion. This is supplied to the gear box via belt. That motion further transfer to the spindle. • On that spindle our attachment is fixed. Housing is fixed to the headstock. • In that guide base cam and follower arrangement is fixed. Arbor is connected to that arrangement and this arbor is reciprocates in the guided and supported bush. • Further the tool holder is fixed in the arbor by alien screw. Tool bit is fixed at the end of tool holder by alien screw. • Due to the reciprocating motion of flat point cutting tool machining takes place. THANK YOU
