CHAPTER 3
Plain Milling Cutters
I. SET-UP PREPARATION
PHOTO 20 PHOTO 21
A. Mount a cup wheel on the wheel arbor attached to spindle, or directly to the
motor shaft arbor. If the wheel is already mounted on a collet, mount this
assembly directly to quill nose at the opposite end from drive pulley. Install
in a provisional position the wheel guard bracket and guard.
B. Mount the cutter on a straight arbor and place the arbor between two tail
stocks mounted to the machine in the approximate position shown in Photo
20. Adjust the right-hand tailstock for the necessary spring tension and then
remove the arbor.
C. Start the Wheelhead motor and dress the inside of wheel to a 20 to 30 degree
angle relative to the wheel face. Leave the cutting edge of wheel approximately
1
/
16
inch in width. Stop the spindle,
II. SET-UP FOR CLEARANCE ANGLE
A. Swing the Wheelhead (spindle) around counterclockwise to a position of 89
degrees so that cutter may be traversed across the face of the wheel (left to
right) without touching its opposite side. Tighten the Wheelhead to column.
B.
For non-tilthead grinders
, place the toothrest on the Wheelhead in a vertical
position over the left side of the wheel face with blade end on the approxi
mate center of wheel (SEE PHOTO 20). Mount the arbor with cutter between
the tailstocks. Some red marking may be applied to the top of the toothrest
blade, and a cutter tooth traversed over this to determine the point of contact.
Adjust the toothrest blade so that the spot where red is removed is centered
on the wheel edge, and so that the blade is no further than about .004 inch
from the wheel Using a height gauge, find the center height of the cutter
or tailstock and place the blade end of the toothrest on exactly the same hori
zontal plane. Photo 21 shows the use of the gauge with the diamond shaped
swivel plate (1) contacting the cutter tooth from above, and the toothrest
from below. These contacts are reversed if the toothrest is placed over the
wheel as in Photo 20. Consult Table No. II, page 105, for the correct amount to
raise (OR LOWER, IF TOOTHREST IS SET FROM BELOW AND CUTTER
ENDS REVERSED) the Wheelhead in order to generate the desired clearance
for the primary relief. (Page 20 shows below center toothrest location
.)
