MANUFACTURING OF SHEET METAL COMPONENTS USING METAL
SPINNING ON A LATHE
Ex. No. : 12
Date :

Aim:
To machine a cup as shown in the sketch out of the sheet metal provided using Lathe machine.

Procedure:

 A disc of metal is revolved at controlled speed on a lathe machine.


 Hold the work piece in a four jaw chuck and machine the surface shown in the sketch.

 Spinning tools are forced against the rotating blank either by hand or by auxiliary power.
 Employing a serious of axial and radial strokes.
 The blank is spun onto the material causing the metal to flow to the shape of the desired part.

Results:
Thus the job was performed on the Lathe machine.

PLANER MACHINE
Ex. No. : 14
Date :

Aim:
To machine a V-block as shown in the sketch out of the workpiece provided using planner machine.

Descriptions:
 A planer is a type of metalworking machine tool that uses linear relative motion between the work piece
and a single-point cutting tool to machine a linear tool path.
 Its cut is analogous to that of a lathe, except that it is linear instead of helical. (Ad ding axes of motion can
yield helical tool paths; see "Helical planing" below.)
 A planer is analogous to a shaper, but larger, and with the entire work piece moving on a table beneath
the cutter, instead of the cutter riding a ram that moves above a stationary work piece.
 The table is moved back and forth on the bed beneath the cutting head either by mechanical means,
such as a rack and pinion drive or a lead screw, or by a hydraulic cylinder.

Procedure:
1. Hold the work piece in a vice and machine the bottom surface shown in the sketch.
2. Invert the casting in the vice and machine the top surface till the desired height is obtained.
3. Machine the inclined faces using right and left hand tools.
4. Finally machine the groove.

Results:
Thus the job was performed on the planner machine.
