Machining precision

The temperature and humidity should be maintained at comfort conditions consistent with the operator s expected level of activity in order to minimise perspiration. Constant temperature and humidity may also be required in machine rooms to prevent the etching or corrosion of machine parts. If perspiration causes only minor damage to the product and results in few rejects, then inside design conditions at 27°C and 40% rh are satisfactory. Where even small amounts of perspiration cause extreme damage to precision-machined parts and result in a high amount of rejects, inside design conditions of 21°C and 40% rh are recommended. 

Injection Molding. Matched metal molds are used in the fabrication of plastic closures, specialty packages, and botde preforms. In conventional injection mol ding the plastic resin is melted in an extmder which forces a measured quantity or shot into a precision-machined chilled mold after which the nozzle of the extmder is withdrawn. 

Injection molds are constmcted of metal precision-machined with internal cooling, multiple cavities, and multifaces, and with devices for extraction... 

In this test, a rectangular strip sample is formed around a die with a precisely machined edge of a known radius. The sample is formed by 90° or 180° about an axis in the plane of the sheet. The outer surface of the bend is inspected for cracking or unacceptably deep surface mmpling for the particular appHcation. The minimum bending radius (MBR) about which strip can be successfully formed depends on the strip thickness, t, and is reported with the test thickness specified or normali2ed with regard to thickness as MBR/1. Better formabiHty is indicated by smaller MBR/1 values. 

Figures 10-133 and 10-134 illustrate the wide variety of types and facings available. Though flanged joints consume a large volume of metal, precise machining is required only on the facing. Flanged joints do not impose severe diametral tolerances on the pipe. Careful alignment prior to assembly of flat-face and raised-face flanges is not required, and the necessary wrenches are far smaller than those for screwed assembly for the same size of pipe.

Hollow fiber modules, or permeators, are precisely machined units containing bundles of fine hollow fibers, positioned parallel to and around a perforated center FW tube, with only one or two bundles per pressure vessel. They are widely used for brackish and seawater supply applications. Hollow fiber modules exhibit a low flux rate (permeate flow per unit membrane per unit time) and foul easily, but... 

This method has the advantages that (1) only a small amount of specimen is required (2) the desired temperature can be easily maintained (3) the cup can be made from noncorrosive material (4) the cylindrical shape allows precise machine working. In contrast to the inherent advan-...

A modem mass spectrometer is constmcted from elements which approach the state-of-the-art in solid-state electronics, vacuum systems, magnet design, precision machining, and computerized data acquisition and processing. [1] This is and has ever been a fully valid statement about mass spectrometers. 

Adhesion tests can be broken into two categories qualitative and quantitative. They vary from a simple Scotch tape test to a complicated flyer tape test, which requires precision-machined specimens and a very expensive testing facility. Quantitative (such as peeling) tests have been developed for coatings on plastics (12), but not to the same extent for metal-to-metal systems. The quantitative testing systems in limited use, mainly in the electronics industry, are not commonly present in production plants but have been used to aid in process development. For quality control purposes, qualitative tests for metal-to-metal adhesion (13) are usually adequate. The adhesion of some plated metal parts is improved with baking for 1 to 4 h at relatively low (120 to 320°C) temperatures. 

Calender A precision machine equipped rolls with three or more heavy, internally heated or cooled (or both), revolving in opposite directions, used for continuously sheeting and plying up elastomeric compounds, and frictioning or coating with elastomeric compounds. 

Our immediate and long-term success is dependent on supplying our customers with precision machined parts and products that fully meet their needs, on time, every time, at a fair price. We know that we are not alone in this effort. We must work with our customers to get all infoimation necessary to make sure that we can understand all their requirements. We must work with our suppliers to make sure that all purchased materials and services fully meet the requirements. 

Figure 16.9—Representation of a quadrupole. Notice the pairing of oppositely charged electrodes. This experimental design requires high-precision machining of the hyperbolic electrodes. To the right a series of equipotential hyperbolic lines in the central part of the quadrupole is shown.

Applications over die past several years have included guidance sysLem parts, such as gimbals, gyroscopes, stable platforms, housings, mirrors, aircraft brakes, and accelerometers. In advanced (U.S.) land-based nuclear missiles, there is a precisely machined beryllium sphere, floating, warmed and protected, in a fluid bath.
