Today’s Project: Secondary Stacker Hoist. Our team did a great job fabricating and assembling this unit. One issue that came up, which wouldn’t be an issue in other circumstances, was the HSS supplied to us had the weld seam in the wrong location causing the lengths to be deformed by 1/8” which is out of tolerance for the hoist knee. Our local supplier was great and found some material in their yard that was to spec and happily replaced it for us. This project required precision machining and fabrication to ensure all the components installed work properly. We must ensure that the shaft is level, and the knee roller is at the same position at all knee locations before installing the lower cam follower. Then we can install knees and knee connector bar followed by upper cam followers, shear arm and shear bolt. Adjust the upper and lower eccentric cam followers to level the knee ensuring the knees can move back and forth smoothly. Adjust the hear arm eccentric cam follower to remove clearance to knee and install bearing keepers, then it is ready to operate! #forestryequipment #sawmill #welder #steelfabrication #metalfabrication #machineshop

Measure and Record Tail Shaft Clearance 1. Visual Check : If surface defects are found. Then determine the type of defect and method of repair. 2. Check the Initial Data : There are standard provisions. Ovality follows diameter. 3. Machining. Laminate with resin, belzona, multimetal, etc. 4. 2nd Check of data after repair. How to repair the tail shaft propeller 1. Remove and reinstall shaft rope guard 2. Measure and record tail shaft clearance 3. Remove and renew for gland packing 4.

I made some brass bushing adapters to fix the lack of concentricity. They will be used to make a tight tolerance 2mm diameter hole with a length of 30mm. #machinist #machinistlife #cncprogrammer #cncmachinist

01 Tool Steel Bar is a general-purpose oil hardening tool steel, which is suitable for a wide range of cold work applications. It is a steel suitable for the manufacture of tooling, with good tool life and production economy. Applications of its use include cutting tools for blanking, forming tools for bending, ejector pins, high-duty small to medium drills and taps, small gear wheels, pistons, and many more.

Conventional thread mills often require several passes to generate a thread. The A Brand AT-1’s revolutionary capability to generate threads in one pass lies in its unique tool geometry. The unequal spacing and variable lead flute of the AT-1 minimizes vibration, thereby enables superior and consistent surface finish. Conventional right-hand helix thread mill is prone to deflection as the cutting process begins from the tip. In contrast, a first of its kind in the thread mill category, the AT-1’s right-hand cut and left-hand helix geometry begins the cutting process from the shank side, thereby reduces deflection. With the elimination of zero-cutting, which is used for the correction of deflection, longer tool life can be achieved.

These are Nozzle Holders, these are manufactured to work with the fuel pump units that we manufacture here at RGS. They are fitted to the side of the units. They are cut from 1.5mm stainless steel on the fibre laser. They are then taken to the folding room, where the protective plastic is scored using copper (this won’t scratch the stainless steel because it is a softer material). They are then folded on the Armada CNC. The 2 components used to make the nozzle holders have the protective plastic removed in the appropriate areas. The Nozzle Holders are then tacked up and then fully welded. Finished off with the welds sanded and the box polished. Finally m5 x 16 studs to one side. #nozzle #nozzleholder #nozzleholders #metal #stainless #stainless_steel #manufacturing #metalwork #fabrication #tigwelding #tigweld #prep #mythodical

*Sheet Metal Locking Pliers* 🔖 Sheet metal locking pliers, also known as sheet metal locking clamps or simply locking pliers, are hand tools designed for gripping, holding, and clamping sheet metal or other thin materials securely. These pliers typically have a unique locking mechanism that allows them to maintain a constant grip force without the need for continuous manual pressure. Uses 1. Clamping and Holding 2. Bending and Forming 3. Cutting Assistance 4. Assembly Work 5. Welding Support #sheetmetallockingpliers #sheetmetal #lockingpliers

One of Johnny's demands as our new Fabrication Shop manager, was that he star in a minimum of one video post per week. 😂 Today, he is welding K17 PU V-Guide to our Pure 20B Clear Glossy belt and adding sensor clips (for an Eddy Current separator application). Once he lays down a guide on each edge of the belt, he preps the belt for sensor clips by marking the hole locations. Once the locations are marked, he then punches holes and then uses a rivet gun to attach the steel sensor clips to the belt. Once the clips are attached, Johnny hammers the rivets flat for a more secure hold and to prevent them from getting caught on any material. #conveyor #conveyors #conveyorbelt #conveyorbelts #conveyorsystem #conveyorsystems #conveyorsolutions #bandastransportadoras #beltingmadeeasy
