Common types of grinding mills include Ball Mills and Rod Mills. This includes all rotating mills with heavy grinding media loads. This article focuses on ball and rod mills excluding SAG and AG mills. Although their concepts are very similar, they are not discussed here. Photographs of a glass ended laboratory ball mill show action of ball mass within the mill.
Mar 01, 2014· I need to turn down a threaded shaft from 1 1/8' to 3/4'. I think by the time I file off the threads I will be real close but I am trying to come up with a way to turn down this shaft without the use of a lathe, (since I don't have a metal lathe) and be fairly precise.The turned down end has to accept a .
I've heard a lot of things. Some good, some not. Like "The lathe is the only machine that can replicate itself." or words to that effect. Well, that is bunk, or at least a major stretch. Anyway I'd rather build a mill with a mill, personally. So g...

Oct 04, 2011· I read that this invention of mass production for lathes in WW1 were possible. Concrete was used then as cast iron was in short supply. With this in mind, has anyone tried making his lathe/mill in concrete cast? Though concrete is good for making the machine stable from vibration, what about the thin walls and cracks will occur in due course.
This will allow you to make the second 180° swing without contacting the center in the tailstock with the pointer. Continue cutting the second 180° swing. If you have created your table correctly, you will have a shaft with eight lobes, 90 percent done. Remove the shaft from the fixture and chuck it up so you can use the lathe to hold the piece.
The lathe comes with a nice piston type quick change tool post. It is probably me, but I just don't like the action of the piston lock. I modified the mount a little and installed my BXA wedge type quick change tool post and now I'm happy with that. Still making little tweaks, but all in all, I really like the lathe.

Aug 01, 2005· Then the shaft is keyed to the collet with a 1/8" pin in shear (maybe hardened), so the shaft is not going to rotate, hence no teeth-clenching required. For one-off shafts, drilling a collet for the pin is probably out, but a correct sized collet exerts tremendous clamping force on the work, so this is still the best approach.

Take a look at your turning tools. They have a handle, a shaft and a cutting or scraping tip. Sometimes the tip is an integral part of the shaft, sometimes it is added on. To make most tools you need to be able to turn a handle, drill a hole, cut a pi ece of steel, tap the hole in the steel, and put it all together.
Metal lath provides a mounting surface on concrete walls for materials that are too heavy to mount otherwise, especially stucco or stone veneers. Because the materials you plan to attach to the lath are so heavy, you need to fasten the lath in a way that attaches it .
The metal elements were placed into the concrete while everything was still setting up. Brass was bent into crude angles to function as wear strips for the bottom of the (heavy) carriage. At this point I could dial in a more accurate alignment of everything and start actual work on making the lathe function.
It doesnt need to be anything super fancy, just large, heavy and able to spin big chunks of wood. My plan is to use an alaskan mill to cut oak (or other heavy hard wood) timbers into a bed. More timbers to raise off the bed make the head of the lathe out of two pillow blocks with a large shaft .
An Eccentric Turning Fixture for the 3-Jaw. I loved this idea presented by Wareagle on the HMEM board. It involves making a fixture to fit the 3-jaw chuck that holds the workpiece off-center. The piccys are pretty self-explanatory: Such a fixture would be very easy to make with a mill and lathe.
