Machine Shop 2 Machining Skills for Prototype Development:

10:10 1) Basic 2 drill & tap heads

10:11 2) Drilling Holes larger aspect ratio (thicker) use cutting fluid b/c chips have harder time clearing the drill keeps chips cool and lubricates them so they slide out of hole. chatter caused by drill jumping around hole: running drill too fast. may need to change transmission ratio for diff sized bits if there is chatter that speed change will not fix. if levers don't shift, something needs to turn, either motor or spindle. step-up drill size. sensitive chuck for hand feeding very small bits… very cool.

10:30 3) Special Drills for Plastics and Hard or Abrasive Materials softer materials: high helix angle of normal bit will dig down and possibly pull part up out of device when used with some materials ie. plastics lower helix angle will scrape rather than cut allows safe drilling of materials that may tend to be lifted up hard materials: steel, ciruit boards (fiberglass) use tunsgton carbide drill.

10:34 4) Drill Press Limitations chatter when used as milling machine.. irregularities. lack of stiffness cannot handle the load of an arbor press (sp??)

10:38 5) Bandsaw cut down larger peices of stock to near net size of part you want to make narrow blade makes it possible to cut curves. 3 teeth always in contact with part.. otherwise risk damaging blade noise of using a coarse blade can be danger to those in shop… 10:42

10:43 6) Suitable Speeds, Feeds and Materials

10:51 7) Bandsaw Setup proper handling & blade guard guidance… 10:52 posture, stand squarely, hands firm on bed of machine. safe handling & proper hand placement. until 10:54

10:54 8) Using the Drill Press Vise round stock. use vice to avoid getting cut by spinning part

10:56: end.

No! No! No! Never remove chips and turnings with your bare hands. Use a chip brush or pliers.

Huh? Oh, I get it. You’ve never worked in a machine shop that did production work.

Just have to get one stuck in your finger once. Then you don’t do it anymore.

Wrong title here

Aluminum chips are relatively safe if you are gentle. If you rip out the chips or ribbon it will cut you up.

some chattering..should use a finer blade for steel…

Never allow any part of your body to contact the blade of any machine while the machine is energized. if you need to contact the blade, disconect the power source. Essentially, this person has just bet his fingers on a ten dollar switch.

No, this is the correct title.
