Having trouble threading tubing on cnc lathe part keeps breaking during turning 012 wall 060 hole?

Troubleshooting problems with threading tubing on CNC lathe parts can be a tricky process. Here are some tips to help you get to the root of the issue:

  • Check if the part is clamped properly ensuring that the cutting forces are evenly distributed.
  • Ensure that the tool is sharp and well-maintained.
  • Check the feed rate and spindle speed to make sure that they are set to the optimal levels for the material.
  • Check the depth of cut and make sure that it is not too deep for the material.
  • Make sure that the tool is aligned correctly for the type of thread being cut.
  • Ensure that the threading tool is set to the correct size for the diameter of the tubing.
  • Check the chip load to make sure that it is not too high for the material.

By following these steps you should be able to identify and correct the issue causing the tubing to break during turning. Once you have identified and fixed the issue you should be able to successfully thread the tubing on the CNC lathe part.

What are Lathe tool undercut forms?

Lathe tool undercut forms refer to specific shapes or profiles that are created on the cutting edge of a lathe tool to enhance its performance in machining operations. These undercuts can improve chip removal, reduce friction, and provide better access to complex geometries during turning processes. Common forms include tapered, rounded, or angled edges, which help in achieving smoother finishes and extending tool life. Properly designed undercut forms can significantly influence the efficiency and effectiveness of lathe operations.

What is joraco press?

Joraco® Metal Products opened its doors in 1947 as a tool, die, and stamping house located in Pawtucket Rhode Island. The name JORACO is an acronym derived from its founder's name - Joseph A. Orabone (Company). From its humble beginnings it served some of the nation's foremost manufacturers such as America Tourister, Fram Corporation, Kaiser Aluminum, Raytheon, and Hasbro, Inc.

Observing industry's need for a compact, reliable, accurate and powerful air press, Joraco® designed its first pneumatic press in 1959 and gradually transitioned into a premier manufacturer of pneumatically powered toggle presses -- the TOGGLE-AIRE® line. In 1982 Joracoâ had outgrown its Pawtucket manufacturing facility and moved to Smithfield, RI where it still stands today. Over the years, the TOGGLE-AIRE® press line expanded and there are currently over 5000 presses and rotary indexers in the field -- most still in operation. Time tested, with billions of strokes performed, they offer the user an economical and efficient alternative to full revolution and light capacity hydraulic and pneumatic presses.

In 2005 Joraco's success drew the attention of investors and as a result Joraco® and its TOGGLE-AIRE® pneumatic press line were acquired by Automated Industrial Machine, Inc (AIM). Today AIM-Joraco® continues to build on the success of its product line by incorporating new technologies such as process controls, instrumentation and quality monitoring systems to suit the needs of its customers and the next generation in manufacturing. AIM -Joraco® focuses on listening to the customer and understanding their applications to provide the most cost-effective, reliable, longest lasting solution.

As always, Technical Support Engineers are eager and available to discuss application requirements, only now we want to see how AIM-Joraco® can provide the best suited manufacturing solution - not just a press.

...of course, if a press is all you need, they can do that too!

What is a lathe bed?

The bed of a lathe is the central beam that runs down the machine. The head, which holds and turns the workpiece, is fixed at one end, there is a tailstock at the other end which can be adjusted along the bed, and usually a carraige in between, which holds turning tools. The workpiece that can be turned in the lathe is limited to what will fit in the head without hitting the bed. A gap bed lathe has a gap in the bed near the head, so a larger workpiece can be turned.

How much money does a lawyer make in a year?

This depends on whether they are an employee of a law firm or independent.

If independent it will depend on the number and types of cases they get.

If their primary work is civil lawsuits the usual rate is between 30% to 40% of the final settlement if they win, nothing if they lose. From that expenses must be subtracted.

If their primary work is criminal prosecution they get a salary, but it will depend on the jurisdiction.

If their primary work is criminal defense their pay varies with who they are defending and how wealthy that person is.
