Machining For Dummies - 410 Stainless; Manual Lathe, CNC Mill, Lots Of Operations Media
Published: 1 year ago
Facing, Turning, Parting, Drilling and Power Tapping 410 Stainless Steel on a Manual Precision Matthews Lathe, Drilling and Tapping a Bolt Circle in 410 Stainless on a Tormach CNC Mill.
Lots of different machining operations to complete this seemingly simple project. Ran into several challenges along the way working with this Stainless Steel, and also a couple of issues with my design. Fun project, lots of learning and lots of hiccups along the way.
One of the issues was tapping the drill chuck too deep and making the chuck jaws sticky and the overall chuck non functional. I cut one of the drill chucks apart to see the issue and got to learn the full inner workings of a drill chuck along the way.
Key Points In The Video:
7:36 - Drill and tap chucks
22:05 - Machine 410 Stainless Steel Base Plates
38:15 - Parting 410 Stainless Steel Base Plates
43:25 - More Parting 410 Stainless Base Plates
55:40 - Drilling 410 Stainless Steel Threaded Rod
58:48 - Update on project challenges
1:02:40 - Prep Jig to Drill and Tap Bolt Circle in CNC Mill
1:08:00 - Drill and tap bolt circle in 410 Stainless on CNC Mill
1:20:35 - Make Jig and turn points on Stainless Screws in Lathe
1:31:05 - Cut Drill Chuck Open to see how it works
1:37:17 - Redo the drill and tapping of drill chucks
1:44:22 - Drill Stainless Steel Threaded Rod
Lathe work completed on a Precision Matthews 1440 TL (PM 1440 LT) and CNC work completed on a Tormach 1100MX.
Finally added coolant to my Precision Matthews PM 1440 TL lathe.
