With BobArt Pro-X from BobCAD-CAM, users can convert pictures or CAD drawings into 2D toolpath or embossed models for machining within Version 20 2D and 3D CAD/CAM software. The release is intended to assist manufacturers, including mold makers, in creating the appropriate model and tool path for CNC machining, from imported or designed images and CAD geometry.

Users can automatically convert a color, grayscale or black and white picture into a full relief model, says the company. The appropriate toolpath strategy can then be created on the fly. Added mirroring options are useful for creating negative relief models. In addition to this capability, users can form raster to vector operations to create 2D profile tool paths for carving or profile milling directly from pictures.

Once the toolpath is machined in the CAM sphere of the software, the cutting process can be simulated and verified prior to sending the program to the machine.

The President has directed that the US Trade Representative negotiate a limited extension of the voluntary restraint agreements (VRAs) with Japan and Taiwan on machine tools. These VRAs were negotiated in 1986 for national security reasons and were scheduled to expire on December 31, 1991.

Import restrictions on machining centers, computer-controlled lathes, computer-controlled punching and shearing machine tools, and computer-controlled milling machine tools will be removed progressively over a 2-year period beginning in January 1992.

To allow sufficient time for negotiations with concerned countries over the phase-out schedule, we are requesting that Japan and Taiwan extend the existing VRA restrictions on machining centers, computer-controlled lathes, computer-controlled punching and shearing machine tools, and computer controlled milling machine tools, scheduled to expire on December 31, 1991, for an additional 30 days.The Secretary of Commerce, as chairman of the cabinet-level Trade Promotion Coordinating Committee, will give special focus to ways to promote machine tools exports.

* US export control regulations will be reviewed to ensure that restrictions on machine tools are kept to the minimum consistent with national security.

* The Secretaries of Defense, Commerce, and Labor will designate officials at the Assistant Secretary level to work together to monitor the industry's performance and to consult regularly with industry representatives.

* The Secretary of Labor will help the machine tool industry improve technical training, human resource management, and the utilization of new and emerging technologies.

* The Secretaries of Commerce and Energy will examine which research and development efforts in the national laboratories could benefit the domestic machine tool industry and will recommend appropriate investment and technology transfer to realize such benefit.

* The Secretaries of Commerce and Defense will continue to implement the Domestic Action Plan of programs to support the revitalization of the US machine tool industry. Key elements of the Domestic Action Plan are as follows:

-- Support for the National Center for Manufacturing Sciences (amounting to $50 million during fiscal years 1988-91); and

-- Support by the Defense Department's Manufacturing Technology (MANTECH) research and development program. More than $33 million has been spent for research on machine tools and related technologies over the past 3 years. Funding for related technologies is estimated at $82 million over the FY 1991-95 period.

* The Secretary of Commerce will continue efforts under the US-Japan Cooperation Plan, which was begun in May 1990 to help promote US products to Japanese machine tool users and their subsidiaries in the United States.

CNC analysis aids machine design

Moore Tool (Bridgeport, Connecticut) currently designs, engineers and builds machines in conjunction with its sister company, Producto, in a 200,000-square-foot facility with approximately 200 employees. When the company set out to build a five-axis, high speed machining center for use in the production of critical components, it faced numerous challenges. The machine was intended to serve critical needs of the turbo machinery, mold and die, scroll compressor and medical markets. To help meet the needs of these applications, a control supplier analyzed the machine's control system in order to optimize the performance of this particular design.

The machine needed to possess capabilities such as high speed (30,000 rpm to 40,000 rpm) cutting capability when milling materials ranging from aluminum to hardened Steel and titanium; dynamic response; good stability and vibration dampening; automation adaptability; a user-friendly Windows working environment; onboard cooling; substantial onboard memory in a CNC without external devices for downloading complex programs; and, above all, high precision.

Moore Tool embodied a "from the ground up" approach to develop its Five-Sided Precision (FSP) line of machining centers. Speed and accuracy were considered when evaluating the needs of working with various materials, as were the differing requirements of production and part accuracy. The requirements of machining aluminum and titanium with high production rates can differ when compared to the intricate contours and features of mold components produced directly in hardened steel. Adding the requirements for efficient graphite machining also produces significant challenges.

The company says the need for a combination of high precision and high material removal rates was evident. The complex contour surface profiling on leading and trailing edges of blades, and especially blisks and IBRs, made a high speed processor essential to maintain acceptable feed rates. The machine configuration, particularly as it relates to the position and configuration of the rotary tables and spindle, would also play an integral role in meeting the needs of Moore Tool's customers.

The machine's CNC is an 840D from Siemens (Elk Grove Village, Illinois). To maximize machine performance, Siemens performed a detailed dynamic analysis of the machine, control and servodrive system. This service is called "Mechatronics." Data gathered during the Mechatronics process are used to optimize the complete machine concept.

In complex blade contour and finishing operations, the CNC provides an aerospace-specific software feature, CompCAD, by which the control's compressor function smoothes point-to-point programming. The real benefit of the control is realized when processing the part using Non-Rational Uniform B-Splines (NURBS), with which the machine can reach an advanced level of smooth contouring and chatter elimination. This is achieved by using splines in an axis-specific tolerance window. According to the manufacturer, contour violations are thus avoided; the efficiency of acceleration/deceleration curves is increased; and slowdowns/speed-ups at block transitions are virtually eliminated.

According to Moore Tool's engineers, in programming, the open architecture of the CNC, along with its high speed, user-defined macros and block search capabilities, have made it an "ideal choice" for the FSP300X. They go on to say that the ability of the CNC to handle large programs, which are typical for intricate mold and die applications, without "drip feed" is also noteworthy.

Optional features that are available with the machine include high-frequency spindle options as high as 80,000 rpm; a range of robotic part loaders, all of which are designed and built by Moore Tool, with the control parameters incorporated into the host CNC; a graphite machining package; a laser tool-setter with measurement and compensation standards; and various customized configurations. The machine can be enhanced with Siemens' Simodrive 611D drive packages.

PCD Grinding Machine has automatic view position facility

Manual RG5B uses proprietary control system that lets users develop tool program comprised of individual grind blocks (steps). Input via 15 in. touchscreen, each block specifies wheel position, wheel reciprocation speed from 0.1-50 mm/sec, wheel speed, wheel direction, and viewing position. System allows complete tools to be ground without re-adjusting machine to reposition for next flank or radius. Unit offers reciprocating table travel to 330 mm.

********************

The RG5B grinding machine is the latest development in Coborn's highly successful "RG" series of manual, PCD grinding machines. It embraces all of the features of the RG5A machine plus new improvements designed to enable tools to be ground far more efficiently and with greater consistency accuracy.

A new Coborn control system is used which enables users to quickly develop a tool program. Each program consists of a sequence of individual "grind blocks". Each grind block represents one grinding step, such that a tool with, for example, two flanks and one radius would be made up of 3 grind blocks. Each block specifies the wheel position, speed of wheel reciprocation, wheel speed, wheel direction and viewing position. The sequence of blocks is then saved under a program name or number which can then be quickly selected and re-used the next time the same tool has to be ground. Other functions, such as in-feed are controlled manually.

The system allows complete tools to be ground without the need to re-adjust the machine to reposition for the next flank or radius. A view position facility is provided which automatically moves the wheel away, turns off the coolant and turn on the viewing lamp. When viewing is complete, the machine will automatically turn off the lamp, turn on the coolant, and move the head back to the current grind position and reciprocate.

Features of the machine Control system.

o Control via an industrial PC, software by Coborn Engineering

o Easy to control system, no 'computing' know-how necessary

o Input via a large, easy to read, 15" touch screen

o Tool programs quickly and easily developed ensuring minimal setup time

o Reciprocation amplitude and position stored and adjustable to 1 micron

o Reciprocating speed stored and adjustable from 0.1 - 50mm per sec

o Automatic view position facility, allows one touch viewing and return

o Digital readout with one micron resolution, switchable from mm to inches

o Control unit mounted on double swivel and tilt arm for convenient positioning General

How to Set Up Your Motorcycle Workshop



"It's an easy thing to say. . . "Build yourself a shop." And a stirring thought, too. But also kinda scary. It's one of those Great Notions that often end up forever parked, like that weed-smothered junker in the neighbor's yard.

"Not to worry. C.G. ('Charlie') Masi takes you there, making the journey from shadetree wrench to mechanic a relatively painless, enjoyable one. How to Set Up Your Motorcycle Workshop is likely the most comprehensive treatment of the subject ever. Here are the why, wherefores and hows of shop-organizing. . . the 'whens' are up to you!

"It's tough to internalize the wealth of information Masi has assembled here. A founder of Motorcycle Tour & Travel magazine, he lays out with great skill - and welcome mirth - the entire universe of building a bike shop. Tool selection, electrical wiring, heating, AC and lighting, welding, safe chemical storage, and oilspills are key topics. So are some ingenious and useful gizmos and, for the total tyro, budget and strategies. The many photos and illustrations are first-class. Of special interest to the make-space-when-possible crowd are sections dealing with where to put your stuff so it's most quickly accessible.

"Profiled by Masi, 30-year riding veteran and longtime technical editor, are motorcycle shops aplenty. He describes successful versions of garages for race bikes, restoration projects and classics, pro mechanics and general-purpose areas large and small.

"There's much to like about 'How to.' Beginners ready to move 'inside' are given an intelligent plan for inspiration, and advanced mechanics and race tuners receive reminders of how to simplify their lives. The safty issues alone are invaluable, given how easy it is to forget the basics. Every reader is made to think about the costs of making or deferring any decision. But with Masi's good humor, it's all done in a sort of subversive, easy to swallow style.

"This book deserves to be in your library. Or better, hardbound for permanent storage in - where else? - your new shop!" Motorcycle Times Nov/Dec 1996

American Iron Magazine, May 1997
"What's great about this book is that it covers everything from small spaces big enough for a single bike to professional repair and race shops. In all of these spaces, one concern remains constant: where to put things. Masi goes into the theory of how to organize such an environment and illustrates his examples with clear, easy-to-read diagrams and photographs." American Iron Magazine, May 1997

Book Description
Theory of Machines and Mechanisms, Third Edition, is a comprehensive study of rigid-body mechanical systems and provides background for continued study in stress, strength, fatigue, life, modes of failure, lubrication and other advanced aspects of the design of mechanical systems. This third edition provides the background, notation, and nomenclature essential for students to understand the various and independent technical approaches that exist in the field of mechanisms, kinematics, and dynamics of machines. The authors employ all methods of analysis and development, with balanced use of graphical and analytic methods. New material includes an introduction of kinematic coefficients, which clearly separates kinematic (geometric) effects from speed or dynamic dependence. At the suggestion of users, the authors have included no written computer programs, allowing professors and students to write their own and ensuring that the book does not become obsolete as computers and programming languages change. Part I introduces theory, nomenclature, notation, and methods of analysis. It describes all aspects of a mechanism (its nature, function, classification, and limitations) and covers kinematic analyses (position, velocity, and acceleration). Part II shows the engineering applications involved in the selection, specification, design, and sizing of mechanisms that accomplish specific motion objectives. It includes chapters on cam systems, gears, gear trains, synthesis of linkages, spatial mechanisms, and robotics. Part III presents the dynamics of machines and the consequences of the proposed mechanism design specifications. New dynamic devices whose functions cannot be explained or understood without dynamic analysis are included. This third edition incorporates entirely new chapters on the analysis and design of flywheels, governors, and gyroscopes.

A concrete saw (often known as a consaw or road saw) is a power tool used for cutting concrete, masonary, brick, asphalt and other solid materials. Concrete saws are powered by petrol, hydraulic, pnuematic or electrical motors. The significant friction generated in cutting hard substances like concrete means that the blades need to be cooled to prolong their life and reduce dust. Blades are either abrasive or diamond tipped.

Power tool
A power tool is a tool powered by an electric motor, a compressed air motor, or a gasoline engine. Power tools are classified as either stationary or portable, where portable means hand held. They are used in industry, construction and around the house for cutting, shaping, drilling, sanding, painting, grinding, and polishing. Power tools for metal working are usually called “Machine Tools”, although in some cases such as the drill press and the bench grinder, the exact same tool is used for both wood and metal working.

The lathe is the oldest power tool, being known to the ancient Egyptians, abet in a hand powered form. Early industrial revolution factories had batteries of power tools driven by belts from overhead shafts. The prime power source was a water wheel or later a steam engine. The introduction of the electric motor in the 1880’s made the self powered stationary and portable tools we know today possible.

Stationary power tools are prized not only for their speed, but for their accuracy. A table saw not only cuts faster than a hand saw, but the cuts are smoother, straighter and more square than even the most skilled man can do with a hand saw. Lathes produce truly round objects that cannot be made in any other way.

An electric motor is the universal choice to power stationary tools. Portable electric tools may be either corded or battery powered. At present (2007) the limitations of battery life, energy capacity, and cost keep the corded versions on the market. Air is the customary power source for nailers and paint sprayers. A few tools are powered by explosive cartridges. Gasoline powered tools such as chain saws and weed whackers are made for use out of doors.

Common power tools include the drill, various types of saws, the router, the electric sander, and the lathe.

The term power tool is also used in a more general sense, meaning a technique for greatly simplifying a complex or difficult task.

Portable sawmill

Portable sawmills became popular in the United States starting in the 1970s, when the 1973 energy crisis and the back to the land movement had led to renewed interest in small woodlots and in self-sufficiency.

Prior to the advent of the portable 'mill, small-scale sawmills were generally cobbled-together affairs constructed and operated by (almost always) two men with a penchant for tinkering. This was, and remains, a traditional occupation for Amish men; unlike most mechanical systems, small sawmills typically do not use electricity.

The portable 'mills represented the first effort at careful engineering and design. Unlike traditional mills, they used a resaw blade of the type used on a band saw rather than a circular blade, which reduced weight and cost, and reduced the size and weight of the bearings and support blocks. It also allowed for a different design where the head, consisting of the blade and a power source, moves back and forth while the log being cut remains stationary. This is in contrast to traditional mills where the log moves on a trolley while the blade remains fixed.

Portable mills can be trailered and set up on site, next to the trees being cut. There is a good degree of shimming and alignment to get the rails set up straight, and this takes time. Some business transport their mill to harvest urban timber where moving the logs would be impractical.

Larger mills have recently come on the market which are portable only in sections. These are faster and can handle larger logs.

Combination machine

Combination machine

Band saw ,Woodworking machines , Metalworking , Saws, Miter saw,Manual Miter Saw,cutting tools ,saws, carbide saws toolsMachine Tools, New Machine Tools,Distributor of machine shop tools and equipment, lathes, mills, drill,machining center, CNC lathe, milling machine, grinding machine, drilling ,achine, cnc machining center,


A combination machine is a woodworking machine that combines the functions of two or more separate machines into a single unit. For example, a combination machine might consist of a tablesaw with a side mounted jointer. Another common example of this type of machine is the jointer-thicknesser (also known as an over-under) which combines the function of a jointer with that of a thicknesser.
Design
Some combination machines run all of their functions from a single motor; others may use more than one. Cutter heads are often shared: for example a jointer-thicknesser may use the same cutter head for both functions. The machines rely upon well thought-out designs which allow the user to switch from one function to another easily.
Advantages
One rationale for the production of these machines is space saving. A combination machine takes up much less space than the equivalent separate machines. This makes them popular with hobbyist woodworkers. There may also be a cost saving over purchasing separate machines, although some top end combination machines can be quite expensive.
Disadvantages

There are a number of disadvantages of combination machines. Set up time is increased when moving from one function to another and back. In many cases, machine settings are lost during the change over and have to be re-established when changing back. In some lower end machines, there may be compromises in design which limit the function or robustness of the machine. Finally, they represent a single point of failure in that a mechanical problem with the machine will generally mean that none of the machine's functions are available.

These disadvantages are offset by the small size of the machine footprint and potential cost saving and so they are very popular with hobbyists and workshops in which space is limited.

The Shopsmith is a lathe-based multi-tool that uses a single motor to perform lathe, tablesaw, and drill press functions. Variations include horizontal boring and disc sander. Originally made by the Magna Corporation in the 1950's and 60's, the ShopSmith Mark V was resurrected in the ShopSmith Corporation in 1972 by John Folkerth, current Chairman of the company.

ShopSmith also manufactures and markets a variety of add-on tools that can be run by the base unit motor. Some of these tools include a band saw, shaper, jointer and planer.

The ShopSmith MARK V is in some ways unique due to its method of speed control. Rather than a system of pulleys or an electronic speed control, the Mk V uses two variable diameter pulleys, controlled by a dial and worm gear. Not only does this give theoretically infinite speeds between the maximum and minimum speeds, it is also serviceable by a hobbyist.
European Combination Machine
Several companies in Austria, Italy, France and Belgium manufacture what is commonly known as a European combination machine, which typically contains a sliding-table saw with a scoring blade, a shaper, a thicknesser, a jointer, and a mortiser. These machines generally have 3 motors, one for the table saw, one for the shaper, and one shared by the thickness planer/jointer and mortiser.

European combination machines are geared for the serious hobbyist or professional woodworker or cabinet maker. They are constructed of cast iron and heavy gauge steel, weigh from 1000 to 2000 lbs., and range in price from around $5,000 to over $30,000 U.S. dollars.

Manufacturers include Knapp, Felder, Robland, Mini-Max, Hammer, Kity, Rojek and others. Hammer, Rojek and Robland manufacture entry level models, MiniMax mid-range models, Felder and Knapp high-end models. Hammer is a brand of Felder. Robland purchased Knapp from the Metabo group in 2000.

The European combination machine allows efficient processing of both rough-cut timber and sheet stock (i.e. plywood). The sliding table can work in conjunction with either the table saw or the shaper. Outfitted with an 8-foot sliding table and outrigger, a single person can cut 4'x8' plywood very accurately and efficiently. Changing between most functions takes only a few seconds.

The sliding table allows a straight edge to be cut on rough lumber, without the use of a fence. It also allows a cut to be made accurately at any angle across a sheet of plywood in just seconds - something that cannot be done nearly as easily, if at all, on a table saw. Used in conjunction with the shaper, the sliding table allows molding, door panels, rails and stiles, to be milled quickly and more accurately than a stand-alone shaper.

Band saw filing
Band saws in timber mills range in size from about (4" x 22ga x 10') to (16" x 11ga x 62'). They are run for 4 to 24 hours then sent to the sawfiler for maintenance.
The sawfiler inspects the saw for needed repairs then gumms, fits and benches the saw as necessary.
Gumming involves grinding the gullets of the saw teeth to a particular shape. The sawfiler uses a semi-automatic grinding machine for this. Band saws operate under high stress and heat and in the presence of wood chips. Carbon migrates into the steel from the wood. Gumming prevents case hardening and fatigue cracking of the band saw gullets. Resaw Band saws (teeth on one side only) may be left or right handed, depending on which way the teeth are pointing and which way the plank falls from the log when cutting. Double cut saws (teeth on both sides) are always gummed right hand teeth first.
A precise tooth profile of the gullet must be maintained for proper saw operation and wood chip removal. Ease of cutting greatly depends on this. The shape is determined by the type of wood and cutting conditions. A sawfiler will maintain the gullet shape by manually shaping the grinding wheel with an abrasive brick, and the set-up of his grinding machine. Variations include face angle, face length, back angle, gullet width and depth, and a frost notch (if necessary). Typical band saw tooth dimensions are 1-3/4" tooth space x 3/4" gullet depth x 3/4" gullet width (grinding wheel width) x 30deg face angle x 16deg back angle.
Fitting means tooth dressing and involves; swaging, shaping, gauging, and grinding. The tip of the saw tooth is swaged to a flair, then the sides are compressed in slightly with a shaper tool to an exact kerf. Then a final grinding pass is made. The usual gauged tolerance is +/- .005" in kerf, and < .003" side to side variation. The same grinding machinery used for gumming is used for fitting.
The saw kerf is usually made this way from the base saw metal. Sometimes, however, the kerf is made with stellite or carbide tips, in which case swaging and shaping isn't needed, although gumming is still required. The kerf may also be 'set' with a punch and hammer, with the teeth bent left, right, left... Set teeth are rarely used.
Benching is the leveling and tensioning of the saw. When a band saw is run on a mill is it stretched with thousands of pounds of force, and during operation the cutting edge heats up. These forces and temperatures cause the saw to deform. Benching deforms an un-mounted saw in a way that counteracts the operating stresses, and allows the saw to pull flat and cut straight when in use. It takes months to learn benching.
Benching is done in a dark room with a stretcher-roller machine and flat anvil (see picture above). A single light at the benchman’s work station, along with ground gauges, allows the sawfiler to measure level and tension.
Leveling is done with a crossface hammer and stretcher-roller adjustments. Cross face hammers are available in left and right hand versions. Each filer has his own hammer which he carefully dresses.
Tensioning is done with the stretcher-roller. This machine has hardened rollers above and below the saw. They rotate slowly and pinch the saw when a lever is cranked, rolling a thin strip through the length of the saw, stretching the metal where it was rolled. Careful placement and force of the rolls deform the metal in a way that counteracts the forces the saw sees during operation. More rolls are placed in the mid-section of the saw. Resaws have the back pulled to counteract the uneven heating of the cutting edge. This is done by rolling the back (non cutting edge) of the saw. The back is measured with a three pin gauge, and is usually around .003" per three feet curved.
Benching involves the simultaneous solution of multiple deformations introduced to the saw to counteract the predicted stresses of the saw in operation. Benchman can easily recognize variations in steel batches.
Other band saw duties include welding broken teeth, fixing cracks, and trouble shooting operating problems.
CNC equipment is starting to evolve to the point of being able to do some benching and fitting tasks.

Metal Cutting Band Saws

When cutting metals, special band saws are required that include coolant pumps which provide a constant flow of liquid coolant over the blade. The coolant keeps blades cool, adding blade life. They also include a powered wire brushwheel to remove chips and buildup from the blade as it exits the material. Metal cutting band saws are available in vertical and horizontal designs. These units range from manual to semi-automatic and even automatic controls.

Machine shop bandsaws are horizontal, vertically cutting saws. Small, manual shop saws usually employ a gravity-fed blade that falls in an arc around a pivot point. The rate of descent is controlled by a shock absorber that has an adjustable rate. When a manual saw is set up for another cut, the operator raises the saw by hand and leaves it in a 45 degree position. The material is unclamped, moved up to hit the part stop (which is then moved out of the way), material reclamped, and the operator hits the rapid advance switch to lower the saw just before the cut begins. The saw's piston is then set to cut advance, and another cut is made.

Additional common equipment on machine shop saws include

* A part stop for repeatable billet production, allowing long rods or bars to be cut into the correct billet size
* A long roller bed to assist long and heavy stock feeding
* Vices along the roller bed to ensure setup rigidity
* Miter base that allows angled cuts
* Saw braces that are adjusted to present just enough exposed saw to cut through the work. This increases rigidity and life of the blade

Motorized Miter Saw


Band saw ,Woodworking machines , Metalworking , Saws, Miter saw,Manual Miter Saw,cutting tools ,saws, carbide saws tools

Today, a miter saw (also called a chop saw or drop saw) usually refers to a power tool used to make a quick, accurate crosscut in a workpiece. It is most frequently used to cut wood, although some plastics and light metals can also be cut with the tool. Common uses include framing operations and the cutting of moulding. Most miter saws are relatively small and portable, with common blade sizes ranging from eight to 12 inches.

The miter saw makes cuts by pulling a spinning circular saw blade down onto a workpiece in a short, controlled motion. The workpiece is typically held against a fence, which provides a precise cutting angle between the blade and the longest workpiece edge. In standard position, this angle is fixed at 90°.

A primary distinguishing feature of the miter saw is the miter index. The miter index allows the angle of the blade to be changed relative to the fence. While most miter saws enable precise one-degree incremental changes to the miter index, many also provide "stops" that allow the miter index to be quickly set to common angles (such as 15°, 30°, or 45°).

Water jet cutter

Water jet cutter
A water jet cutter is a tool capable of slicing into metal or other materials using a jet of water at high velocity and pressure, or a mixture of water and an abrasive substance. The process is essentially the same as water erosion found in nature but accelerated and concentrated by orders of magnitude. It is often used during fabrication or manufacture of parts for machinery and other devices. It has found applications in a diverse number of industries from mining to aerospace where it is used for operations such as cutting, shaping, carving, and reaming.
Operation

A water jet cutter creating a specialist toolThe cutter is commonly connected to a high-pressure water pump (a local water main does not supply sufficient pressure) where the water is then ejected out of the nozzle, cutting through the material by bombarding it with the stream of high-speed water. Additives in the form of suspended grit or other abrasives, such as garnet and aluminum oxide, can assist in this process. Because the nature of the cutting stream can be easily modified, water jets can be used to cut materials as diverse as fish sticks and titanium. There are few materials that can't be effectively cut with a water jet cutter; one of these is tempered glass, which shatters when cut, regardless of the cutting technology used. Certain ceramics are also resistant to water jet cutting. Water jet cuts are not typically limited by the thickness of the material, and are capable of cutting materials over twelve inches thick.

Wood drying

Wood drying (not to be confused with "seasoning") may be described as the art of ensuring that gross dimensional changes through shrinkage are confined to the drying process. Ideally, wood is dried to that equilibrium moisture content as will later (in service) be attained by the wood. Thus, further dimensional change will be kept to a minimum.

It is probably impossible to completely eliminate movement in wood, but this may be approximated by chemical modification. This is the treatment of wood with chemicals to replace the hydroxyl groups with other hydrophobic functional groups of modifying agents (Stamm, 1964). Among all the existing processes, wood modification with acetic anhydride has considerable promise due to the high anti-shrink or anti-swell efficiency (ASE) attainable without damaging the wood properties. However, acetylation of wood has been slow to be commercialised due to the cost, corrosion and the entrapment of the acetic acid in wood. There is extensive literature relating to the chemical modification of wood (Rowell, 1983, 1991; Kumar, 1994; Haque, 1997).

Drying timber is one approach for adding value to sawn products from the primary wood processing industries. According to the Australian Forest and Wood Products Research and Development Corporation (FWPRDC), green sawn hardwood, which is sold at about $350 per cubic metre or less, increases in value to $2,000 per cubic metre or more with drying and processing. However, currently-used conventional drying processes often result in significant quality problems from cracks, both externally and internally, reducing the value of the product. As an example, in Queensland alone (Anon, 1997), assuming that 10% of the dried softwood is devalued by $200 per cubic metre because of drying defects, sawmillers are losing about $5 million per year in that State alone. Australia wide this could be $40 million per year for softwood and an equal or higher amount for hardwood. Thus proper drying under controlled conditions (prior to use) is of great importance in timber utilisation in any country, where climatic conditions vary considerably at different times of the year.

Drying, if carried out promptly after the felling of trees, also protects timber against primary decay, fungal stain and attack by certain kinds of insects. Organisms, which cause decay and stain, generally cannot thrive in timber with a moisture content below 20%. Several, though not all, insect pests can live only in green timber. Dried wood is less susceptible to decay than green wood (above 20% moisture content).

Apart from the above important advantages of drying timber, the following points are also significant (Walker et al., 1993; Desch and Dinwoodie, 1996):

Dried timber is lighter, and hence the transportation and handling costs are reduced.
Dried timber is stronger than green timber in most strength properties.
Timbers for impregnation with preservatives have to be properly dried if proper penetration is to be accomplished, particularly in the case of oil-type preservatives.
In the field of chemical modification of wood and wood products, the material should be dried to a certain moisture content for the appropriate reactions to occur.
Dry wood works, machines, finishes and glues better than green timber. Paints and finishes last longer on dry timber.
The electrical and thermal insulation properties of wood are improved by drying.
Prompt drying of wood immediately after felling therefore results in significant upgrading of, and value adding to, the raw timber. Drying enables substantial long term economy in timber utilisation by rationalising the utilisation of timber resources. The drying of wood is thus an area for research and development, which concerns many researchers and timber companies around the world.

Wood-water relationships

The timber of living trees and freshly felled logs contains a large amount of water, which often constitutes more weight than the actual wood. Water has a significant influence on wood: wood continually exchanges moisture (water) with its surroundings, although the rate of exchange is strongly affected by the degree wood is sealed.

Water in wood may be present in two forms:

Free water: The bulk of water contained in the cell lumina is only held by capillary forces: it is not bound chemically and is termed free water. Free water is not in the same thermodynamic state as liquid water: energy is required to overcome the capillary forces. Furthermore, free water may contain chemicals, altering the drying characteristics.
Bound or hygroscopic water: Bound water is bound to the wood via hydrogen bonds. The attraction of wood for water arises from the presence of free hydroxyl (OH) groups in the cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin molecules in the cell wall. The hydroxyl groups are negatively charged electrically. Water is a polar liquid. The free hydroxyl groups in cellulose attract and hold water by hydrogen bonding.
Water in cell lumina may be in the form of water vapour, but the total amount is normally negligible, at normal temperatures and moisture contents

Wood structure

Wood is composed of cells, and is an anisotropic material. Commercial timbers are broadly classified into two categories, namely softwoods and hardwoods.

Softwoods are relatively simple in structure: more than 90% of the volume is composed of tracheids (Walker et al., 1993), axially elongate cells of 2 to 5 mm in length. Density will commonly be in the range of 350 to 700 kg/m³, basic density at 12% moisture content (Desch and Dinwoodie, 1996). Conversion and drying procedures for softwoods are better established than for hardwoods. A prime reason is that softwoods comprise the bulk of the wood used, and commercial plantings are mostly softwood. Research institutes in Europe and North America, also in New Zealand and Australia have devoted time to softwoods. The plantation area for softwoods is about 10,000 square kilometres in Australia according to the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics (ABARE, 2000) and about 17,000 square kilometres in New Zealand (source: New Zealand Forestry, 2002). Much of this is radiata pine (Pinus radiata)

The processing of hardwoods is more complex because of diversity. There are up to a hundred times as many species of hardwood trees as there are softwoods, and hardwood trees grow in a much wider range of ecological niches than softwoods. Density of commercial hardwoods commonly is in the range of 450 to 1250 kg/m3 basic density at 12% moisture content (Desch and Dinwoodie, 1996). Hardwood may have low lateral permeability, compared with softwoods. For example, the transverse permeability of green wood from Eucalyptus delegatensis is in the order of 4.6x10e-18 m2, whereas the permeability of green wood of Pinus radiata is 263 to 410x10e-18 m² (Langrish and Walker, 1993). Blackbutt (Eucalyptus pilularis) is a difficult to dry hardwood species (Bootle, 1994). Also the structure of hardwood shows a much greater range of variation than for softwood.

Wood drying

Wood drying also known as seasoning lumber or timber seasoning in the UK refers to reducing the moisture content of wood prior to its use. The two most important issues are 1) the level of moisture desirable and 2) the means to achieve this.

With regard to the level of moisture, for some purposes wood is not dried at all, prior to its use. It is used as is, "green". For other purposes wood must be in equilibrium with the outside air, as in much construction wood. For use indoors, as in furniture, wood must be in equilibrium with the air indoors.

With regard to the means used in drying a distinction is made between air-dried wood (AD) and kiln-dried wood (KD). There are many different types of kilns, as time used for drying is an economic factor, and new types of kiln are constantly being developed to reduce drying time.

Usually wood is sawn prior to drying, but this is not always so. As drying in the log takes a long time, especially for big logs, sawing prior to drying is the rule. If wood is to be kiln dried it will always be sawn first.

GENERAL CUTTING TOOLS Cuting tools overviews

The lathe cutting tool or tool bit must be made of the
correct material and ground to the correct angles to machine
a workpiece efficiently. The most common tool bit is the
general all-purpose bit made of high-speed steel. These tool
bits are generally inexpensive, easy to grind on a bench or
pedestal grinder, take lots of abuse and wear, and are strong
enough for all-around repair and fabrication. High-speed
steel tool bits can handle the high heat that is generated
during cutting and are not changed after cooling. These tool
bits are used for turning, facing, boring and other lathe
operations. Tool bits made from special materials such ascarbides, ceramics, diamonds, cast alloys are able to machine
workplaces at very high speeds but are brittle and expensivefor normal lathe work. High-speed steel tool bits are
available in many shapes and sizes to accommodate any lathe
operation.
SINGLE POINT TOOL BITS
Single point tool bits can be one end of a high-speed steel
tool bit or one edge of a carbide or ceramic cutting tool or
insert. Basically, a single point cutter bit is a tool that has
only one cutting action proceeding at a time. A machinist or
machine operator should know the various terms applied to
the single point tool bit to properly identify and grind
different tool bitsThe shank is the main body of the tool bit.
The nose is the part of the tool bit which is shaped to a
point and forms the corner between the side cutting edge
and the end cutting edge. The nose radius is the rounded
end of the tool bit.more inforemation

Horizontal Bandsawing Tools

Horizontal Bandsawing Tools


Vertical Band Saw Operation
Straight-line sawing is performed on the vertical band saw
machine by using one or a combination of several
mechanisms or attachments: the miter guide attachment, with
or without power feed, with or without the work-holding jaw
device-. and the work-holding jaw device with power feed and
angular blade guide attachmentThe miter guide attachment on some machines can be
connected to the power feed mechanism and on others
must be fed by hand. The workpiece is clamped or handheld
against the miter guide attachment and the workpiece
and attachment are moved on a track parallel to the blade,
thereby assuring a straight-line cut.
The work-holding jaw device on some machines can be
connected to the power feed to produce straight-line cutsThe angular blade guide attachment is used for straightline
sawing when the workpiece cannot be cut in the usual
manner because it is too large or too long to clear the
column of the bar, sawing machine frame.

CONTOUR SAWING


Contour sawing is the process of cutting shapes in which
the direction of the cut must be changed at intervals. Holes
larger in diameter than the width of the saw blade must be
drilled at each corner where a change of direction of the
bandsaw blade will occur. illustrates the
methods of changing direction of a cut at a hole.

Sawing Away From the Hole
To saw away from the hole on a line tangent to the hole,
the saw blade must cut away from the center of the hole, or
the blade will bow and cause a belly in the cut. The cut
should be started as in A, in which a curve is
cut outward from the hole to meet the layout line, leaving
apiece of excess metal which can be removed later by
filing. An alternate method is shown at B, in
which a section of metal is notched out with a saw blade by
several short cuts to give the blade clearance for starting the
cut along the layout line.
SPECIAL OPERATIONS ON SAWING MACHINES
Band Filing Feeds
Work pressure on the band file should not be excessive. A
medium amount of pressure applied against the band file
moving at the proper speed will produce curled chips which
will not clog the file. Heavy pressure will cause clogging
and can cause the file to break or the machine to stall. A
light pressures should be used for finish filing, with a slow,
sideways motion that will not leave vertical file marks on the
workpiece.

Meat Cutter



Milling cutters - Interchangeability dimensions for cutter arbors or cutter mandrels Milling cutter arbors.Retail Meat Cutters traditionally work indoors, in large, refrigerated rooms, with temperatures ranging between 2 and -4 degrees Celsius. These environments are kept sanitary, and are washed every day with powerful antibacterial cleaners. In larger retail outlets or plant-facilities, working environments are generally equipped with power tools such as band saws and circular slicers. Meat Cutters are also generally required to be in good physical shape; the duties of a Meat Cutter include standing for long periods of time, regularly lifting over 25 lbs, and working in cold conditions. Retail Meat Cutters also often have to deal with customers.

Autonomous robot


Autonomous robots are robots which can perform desired tasks in unstructured environments without continuous human guidance. Many kinds of robots have some degree of autonomy. Different robots can be autonomous in different ways. A high degree of autonomy is particularly desirable in fields such as space exploration, where communication delays and interruptions are unavoidable. Other more mundane uses benefit from having some level of autonomy, like cleaning floors, mowing lawns, and waste water treatment.

Some modern factory robots are "autonomous" within the strict confines of their direct environment. Maybe not every degree of freedom exists in their surrounding environment but the work place of the factory robot is challenging and can often be unpredictable or even chaotic. The exact orientation and position of the next object of work and (in the more advanced factories) even the type of object and the required task must be determined. This can vary unpredictably (at least from the robot's point of view).

One important area of robotics research is to enable the robot to cope with its environment whether this be on land, underwater, in the air, underground, or in space.

A fully autonomous robot has the ability to

* Gain information about the environment.
* Work for an extended period without human intervention.
* Move either all or part of itself throughout its operating environment without human assistance.
* Avoid situations that are harmful to people, property, or itself.

An autonomous robot may also learn or gain new capabilities like adjusting strategies for accomplishing its task(s) or adapting to changing surroundings.

Autonomous robots still require regular maintenance, as do other machines.
