Constant Horizontal Force Machining Through Flash Welded Steel Bars Of Varying Hardness, Donald Naeger Jan 1968

Constant Horizontal Force Machining Through Flash Welded Steel Bars Of Varying Hardness, Donald Naeger

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effect of a constant horizontal force applied to the carriage of a lathe as it turned a piece of stock which consisted of two steel bars, of different hardness, flash welded together. This experiment was performed on a lathe to which a pulley system with a mechanical advantage of six was attached to the carriage. The strain on the tool was measured both in the horizontal and vertical directions by a tool dynamometer on which eight strain gages were mounted. The strain gages were calibrated on a Tinius-Olsen testing machine. The …
