A Case Study Of Multiple-Use Finish Electrodes For Die-Sinking Edm, Troy A. Robertson
A Case Study Of Multiple-Use Finish Electrodes For Die-Sinking Edm, Troy A. Robertson
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
This study examines the use of one finishing electrode to finish multiple dies without remachining the electrode. The multiple-use electrode finishing experiment in this study addresses technology in the die-forging industry. Methods of manufacturing spherical straight bevel forge gear dies have relied on die-sinking Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) practices that showed great potential for advancement. The focus of this study is solely on the improvements of electrode use in EDM finishing-processes. The surface finish quality itself is not an area of concern other than maintaining that it does not diminish. The focused concern is maximizing the process by using one …
Bevolute Gear System, Willis M. Carter
Bevolute Gear System, Willis M. Carter
Mechanical Engineering Faculty Patents
The present invention relates to a bevolute gearing system which transmits torque between non-intersecting shafts at right angles to each other. The bevolute gear system includes a pinion gear which is flat and in one plane. The pinion gear is designed to include teeth which are shaped in the form of an involute spiral. The bevolute gear system includes a second gear which is also designed to include teeth which are shaped in the form of an involute spiral. The second gear is mounted on a non-intersecting axis at a right angle to the axis of the pinion gear. The …
