Editorial

Fast forward to future…

s we step into 2011 with added optimism rallying around the robustness of Indian economy, it will not be complete without a quick recap of the last year. Amid this phase of uncertainty, there were select trendsetters in the industry who not only believed in the saying ‘Do not waste a crisis’, but were also able to successfully ride this storm as a window of opportunity. However, the ripple effects of global economies continue to remain as a reality. Without any clear and strong signs of world-wide business resurgence, it will be pragmatic to have a cautious outlook for the near future. Also, 2011 can be the beginning of a phase, wherein opportunities would be new and would call for greater focus on innovation and novel models of growth. Hopefully, the surging economy, coupled with timely policy implementation, will go a long way in transforming global as well as Indian businesses. At the same time, operative conditions in the country pose unique challenges to the industry. Apart from the need for customisation, the manufacturers are up for an ever-increasing demand to get better precision, energy efficiency, costeffectiveness as well as eco-compliance.

GERMANY

Growth accelerator of Europe The machine tool industry in Germany is one of the largest trade entities within the country’s manufacturing sector. With order books being filled up faster than ever before, machine tool manufacturers are looking forward to the good times ahead.

fter the economic slowdown, the machine tool industry in Germany has grown rapidly and is still registering growth. With more than 117 per cent, order bookings reflected three-figure growth for the first time. Sales has increased with the demand from global and local markets by 128 per cent and 99 per cent, respectively. According to Martin Kapp, Chairman, VDW (German Machine Tool Manufacturers’ Association), “The German machine tool industry has achieved a significant turnaround. Global demand for machine tools has been rising again since the second half of 2009, and is currently going strong. This is also proving beneficial in terms of the incoming orders for German manufacturers. They are predicted to grow by two-thirds in 2010, a rise that

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

will be reflected in the sales figures of 2011.”

Area of excellence Manufacturing companies were always the engines of growth in the German economy, even for the service sector. The German machine tool industry consists largely of medium-sized companies that supply production technology for metalworking to various industries. The country has always been known for its technology and innovation, which are the reasons behind its success

because it continually improves its products and processes across the globe. Each year, six per cent of the industry’s turnover is invested in R&D. Since mid 2009, demand has been back on course, particularly in the major customer groupings. The automotive industry, its component suppliers, and the mechanical engineering sector, are once again investing substantial amount. Their business has proved beneficial, because of the healthy exports to Asia’s expanding markets.

The German machine tool industry has achieved a significant turnaround. Global demand for machine tools has been rising again since the second half of 2009, and is currently going strong. This is also proving beneficial in terms of the incoming orders for German manufacturers.

JAPAN

Trendsetter in technology and innovation Renowned for their innovativeness, Japan-made machines are known in the global machine tool industry for their high-end technology and NC control systems. As optimism grows in global manufacturing, Japan is making significant investments in technology and innovation to regain its global ranking in the industry.

Japanese word – Monozukuri – which means ‘manufacturing creates the future and by extension builds dreams’ is an idea that defines the current focus of the manufacturing industry in Japan. Even as uncertainty prevails in the economic outlook of Japan, there are some signs of improvement. As optimism spreads in the manufacturing industry, there is a parallel rise in capital investment based on demand expectation in the coming months. Today, businesses in Japan’s machine tool industry are striving for continuous innovation even in a challenging economic environment, while pouring their energies into development of high-quality human resources. Today, every company is striving to improve precision,

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

efficiency, operability and energy saving features of its products. These represent both basic productivity enhancements and ventures in innovation.

Machine tool: A core industry Looking at the industry in terms of the value of production, in 2009, the total value of production of machine tools amounted to ¥ 490.3 billion. However, superior machine tools are the crucial factor in manufacturing a wide range of machinery. This is why machine tools are viewed within all sectors of the industry as having a critical presence far greater than their share alone would indicate. The production unit prices rose sharply because a greater proportion of production consisted of larger and more advanced machine tools.

Aerospace machining is becoming more important in Japan because of the country’s growing involvement in the next-generation jet fighter programmes and commercial jetliner production. The new machine designs catering to the machining needs of the aerospace industry is an upcoming trend.

Overcoming odds During the mid-1950s, most of the Japanese enterprises were adapting their machine tool production technologies from Europe and the US. By 1970, Japan had joined the ranks of the world’s major manufacturing countries. In 2007 the value of production reached ¥ 1,300 billion for the first time in 17 years since 1990, driven by the unusually buoyant world economy. However, due to the

recent economic slowdown, the value of production dropped to ¥ 490.3 billion in 2009 – down 61 per cent from the previous year. Japan slipped in the global ranking to third position, trailing China and Germany. Nonetheless, the industry managed to overcome these crises by constantly reinforcing its competitive strengths, including technological advances and services to users. Currently, Japanese machine tool builders are intensifying

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

The Japanese manufacturers strongly believe that the strength in manufacturing comes from focussing on quality and excellence in production & process innovation. In support, the Japanese government has laid down a Science and Technology (S&T) strategic roadmap that is inextricably linked to its manufacturing competitiveness strategy. The S&T strategy has been designed to help jump-start innovation and to enable success in the manufacturing sector and the economy as a whole. Shinichi Kohda, Assistant Manager, Japan Machine Tool Builders’ Association (JMTBA), says “To differentiate the machine tools being introduced elsewhere in Asia

from the ones in Japan, machine tool manufacturers in the country are developing a wide variety of products ranging from ‘entry model’, with limited functions to high-precision complex multi-tasking machinery.” In the minds of Japanese leaders, another key to Japan’s global competitiveness is the development of its human resources. Facing a declining workforce, an aging population, and the loss of its ‘manufacturing culture,’ the government is moving quickly to build strong alliances with universities to develop intensive new curriculum in science & technology and to conduct joint research on new technologies. Japanese industries are moving towards an aggressive competitiveness strategy of their own – without direct government support or intervention. Industries are moving quickly to build strong alliances with universities, as well as to harness new technologies, to develop innovative solutions, and to bring them to market quickly, to remain competitive.

Framework Agreement (ECFA) – between Taiwan and China this year has given the machine tool industry in Taiwan a chance to explore business in one of the largest machine tool markets in the world. Reveals Chuang, “The import tariff of machine tools from China is between 5-15 per cent. The ECFA document includes a range of 17 machine tool in the ‘Early Harvest’ list and eliminates customs duty within three years. The signing of ECFA will not only affect industries in Taiwan but will also accelerate business exchange across the Formosa Strait to establish a complementary and reciprocal relationship. Companies will therefore be able to cut down their costs and pump up international competitiveness.”

Focus on export There are also statistical reasons for this success. “Overall, the export value of Taiwanese machine tools from January to August this year grew by 63 per cent compared to the same period last year. This strongly underscores how we are moving towards recovery in the economy. In terms of export destinations, China and Hong Kong ranked first, with exports more than doubling, growing by 110 per cent over the last year, to reach a value of $ 881.74 million,” says Yuen-Chuan Chao, President & CEO, Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA). In addition, since the machine tool industry was included in the Early Harvest list of the cross-strait ECFA, there are great expectations that more demand is yet to come from market in China. Strong performance was also registered in the emerging markets. Export to Turkey in the same eight-month period grew by 231 per cent; Indonesia by 109 per cent; Brazil by 81 per cent; and Thailand by 69 per cent. These high-growth rates indicate that Taiwan’s machine tool products and its companies have the capacity to offer customised products at competitive prices.

Way forward The machine tool industry in Taiwan is gearing up for one of the most exciting phases within the industry. The companies, with an eye on the emerging markets, are investing in upgradation of their manufacturing capabilities. Now, the focus of technology is towards strengthening abilities in multi-axis and complex machining suited for companies in diverse industries. Machine tool manufacturers in the country are now aiming to become top-notch entities in the world.

ITALY

Best in-class quality at competitive price The unique structural composition of small-scale companies that have strong export tendencies based on high-quality offerings, has made Italy one of the most preferred technology partners for the global machine tool industry. Ready to match the pace of changing demand trends, along with flexibility, reliability and customisation have ensured a competitive edge for the country in the global marketplace.

n 2009, the Italian machine tool, robot & automation industries had to operate in an unprecedented trade environment. This was led by the economic downturn towards the end of 2008 that had a significant impact on the overall economy, when the machine tool sector plunged into worrying conditions. During the period, the world production and consumption of machine tools fell by almost 30 per cent. However, Italy steered through the storm, powered by a talented workforce with unique skill sets that make the country a preferred ‘technological partner’ by users all over the world. The main global destinations for Italian manufacturers include Germany, China, France, Russia and the US. In addition to quality, reliability and customisation, Italian companies are ‘special’ because of the marketing policies they have adopted, based on the conviction

that technology has to be shared. Consequently, they present themselves across the world with an approach marked by readiness for dialogue and co-operation.

A worldwide success As the Italain machine tool sector led the global industry in production and export despite the global crisis, it also proved the capacity of Italian manufacturers to meet the most specific-usage requirements with precision and punctuality. It ranked fourth in worldwide production, and third among the exporters in

2009. In reference to the entire machine tool industry, Italy is the fifth global supplier to China after Japan, Germany, Taiwan and Korea. For Italian companies, China is the second largest market after Germany. Export from Italy is considered a benchmark in the field of hightechnology machine tools. Propensity to continue internationalisation has always been a distinguishing feature of this industry.

The differences become apparent if we consider the structure of the industry, which is more fragmented than in other countries. Indeed, most of the 500-odd companies in Italy are small or medium-sized.

Flexibility for customisation Italian manufacturers are known for their flexibility and quick response that is unmatched by manufacturers of any other country. In addition, the strength of the Italian machine tool industry also lies in supplying custom-made machines and systems – in other words, machines and systems produced to meet specific requirements of individual users. As to the quality of products, it is significant that around 70 per cent of the machine tools produced in Italy are electronically controlled, and 20 per cent of these form part of integrated systems, ie, cells and systems made up of more than three machines. In a typical company, the management is firmly in the hands of the owner, and not more than 70 people are employed, compared to an the average of 200 in Germany and Japan. The Italian companies have leveraged the limited size of their companies to successfully penetrate the markets worldwide.

he Indian economy is growing at a fast pace. Besides automobile industry, a rapid growth is witnessed in the infrastructure sector as seen by the growth in the requirements of new power plants, ship building, cement industry, wind mills, sugar industry, huge chemical plants and refineries, among others. This calls for the capability in machining heavy jobs. It is difficult for such jobs to be moved from one place/position to another because of their size and weight. In some cases, it is not possible at all. Carrying out different machining operations on such jobs is a challenging task. It is time-consuming, uneasy and prohibitively expensive to carry out

machining by using conventional machines & machining methods. This has led to the develpoment of in situ machines – a novel & different approach for machines and machining system.

Going beyond conventional The conventional machine is firmly positioned and fixed in a machine shop. The jobs are mounted and fixed on the machine with proper tooling and alignment. A few machining operations can be carried out in one axis, or in some cases, more than one axis, but at a fixed relationship between the axes employed for machining. To carry out machining in other axes or to adopt a different

Multi-purpose machining The latest range of in-situ machines has revolutionised machining by its versatality to do operations like drilling, milling, boring and facing among others. One of these machines aptly called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sarvaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; meaning everything in Sanskrit is specially designed and built to suit the requirements of heavy engineering fabrication shops for machining complex and odd size jobs. This machine is developed for circular welding edge preparation at the bottom of large shell ends by positioning the machine below the job. It is provided with both upward and horizontal slide movements, as well as quill movement. The specially designed tool giving the required welded profile is fixed to the spindle nose of the machine with suitable adoptors. With the help of combined upward & slide movements, the tool is correctly positioned at the required edge preparation surface. By

kind of machining process the job has to be either dismantled and reclamped in different positions or might even require to be moved to a different machine altogether. The difficulty, time and cost of such requirements can be imagined when the jobs are heavy, whereas the in-situ machines conceived are portable. Even heavy in-situ machines are made portable. Many times, the portable machines can weigh more than 30 tonne. Instead of moving the job to the machine and clamping it suitably, the job is kept fixed. The machine is portable & moved near to the job and alligned with a suitable reference surface in the job and positioned. Operations are then carried out from this position, depending on the job requirement, possibilities of tilting the tool axes in different planes and angles provided in the machine.

Depending on the requirement, the spindle units can be easily changed. This provides versatality of being able to carry out different kinds of machining in varying planes and angles. And, these variations in machining operations are carried without changing the position of the job. One can imagine the versatality, time saving and economy that are acheived by adopting this system.

Portable milling, drilling, boring & facing machine

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

giving motion to the tool, the required edge is prepared. The machine is shifted to the next shell. Thus, the movement of heavy job is avoided. In-situ machine for facing, milling, turning & grinding consists of a circular frame with several spider arms, which permits it to be clamped firmly on the face of any job. At the centre of the frame, a rotating arm is located, which houses a rotary drive from an electric motor depending on the requirement. The speed of the rotary arm can be made infinitely variable by using an inverter drive or a servo drive. At the end of the rotary arm, a single axis, two axes, or three axes slide unit can be fixed carrying either a turning tool, milling head, grinding head, etc depending on the machining requirements.

Portable milling machine These can be built upto 10 m or even larger strokes, and are capable of performing edge preparations, milling, drilling etc on heavy jobs. The portable milling machine is shifted, positioned and aligned with some suitable reference surface of the job. Depending on the machining required, a suitable tooling is fitted to the spindle unit of the in situ machine and the required operation is carried out. Based on the requirements, the provision to rotate or tilt or both can be provided to achieve the required machining operations in varying planes and angles. The above are a few examples of how in situ machines can be used instead of conventional machines, thus achieving various advantages. Depending on the job requirement, several concepts of such kinds of machines can be developed and adopted. The usage of such concepts in machining heavy jobs is endless. These modular units are designed to meet challenging jobs adequately, economically and in quick time. Courtesy: Precitec Precision Machineries Pvt Ltd

The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;all-in-oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; formula has driven a technology transformation. Innovative minds are working towards bringing versatility in products, and the customers are expecting to gain maximum from the minimum. With regard to these developments, the traditional magnetic beds have taken one more step ahead from the electro permanent magnetic beds to magnaslot â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the next level of magnetic force in clamping tools.

he Eectro Permanent Magnetic (EPM) reign of the magnetic bed era did witness some barriers in the working process, especially when one was to mount a non-magnetic material. Dealing with this drawback was possible with the removal of magnetic bed and clamping of other forms of clamping devices to the machine bed. The other method was to clamp the secondary clamping device on to the magnetic bed. However, removing the magnetic bed frequently from the machine is not always easy and may damage the original machine bed. Also, the top surface of the traditional magnetic bed is always made up of two different materials, either steel or aluminium/brass/stainless steel or epoxy. This dissimilar materials used leads to uneven thermal expansion during machining, creating inaccuracy in the clamping face. And, in case of a crack in the non-magnetic materials, the seepage of external liquids occurs damaging the magnet.

Winning attributes Today we have more options available than what we had before. The first and the common feature of both EPM chuck and magnaslot are that

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

they both can carry clamp ferrous jobs. In the case of a non-ferrous job, the EPM chuck lacks the ability of being able to clamp a non-ferrous job directly. To clamp, it requires the removal of chuck and clamping of job on T-slots of machine bed. However, in magnaslot, non-ferrous jobs can be directly clamped on the slot of the magnetic chuck. The conventional EPM chucks carry two non-homogeneous material surfaces - be it steel with epoxy, or steel will brass, etc. The heat during machining causes unequal thermal expansion in the top surface of the magnet, which causes inaccuracies in the surface of the magnet and eventually in the job. However, as the surface of magnaslot is made up of a monolithic block of steel, the expansion due to heating is homogeneous. Hence in this case, there are no inaccuracies due to unequal expansion. In EPM chuck, when different materials are used in the top face, due to shock/heat and damage, a chance of seepage of coolant/liquid into the chuck exists, which results in burning of coil. Further, the repair of coil is difficult as no repair can begin without destroying the chuck. However, in the case of magnaslot, coolant seepage

is eliminated as the working face is of a single block of steel. And, in the unlikely event of the coil burning, it can be easily repaired after removing the bottom plate without the destruction of the chuck itself.

Feature perfect The working surface of the magnetic chuck is machined from a single block of mild steel, wherein the poles are demarcated by making slots in the top surface obviating the need to use filler material. It is a very rigid and robust construction, and offers universal clamping directly on magnetic chuck. It is claimed to be 100 per cent leakproof, once clamped on the precision machine table, and assures complete safety to the original machine bed. These magnetic beds act perfect to the clamping of magnetic and non-magnetic work pieces. The magnetic chucks are well-suited for the work of big workpieces in heavyduty cutting. The installation of the machine is also easy with throughholes and clamping sideways on the cross-side. Adding to the advantage, magnaslot provides far-reaching flexibility, profitable productivity and ensures safety. Courtesy: East Coast Enterprisers Ltd

Globalisation and strong competition in all fields have initiated a continuous need for improvement and innovation in controlling productivity cost. Among the finishing processes, abrasives play the most important role, mainly due to their high accuracy and efficiency. The type of abrasive media, machine performance and careful selection of the working parameters are of importance for the final precision and surface quality of the machined components. The main tasks of grinding process are to remove material in excess, and leave an accurate, smooth & clean surface.

Machine setup and changeover to a different diameter tube or bar via CNC/ servo-motor control, permits rapid setups within two to five minutes for multiple belt-head operations. Unlike bonded grinding wheels, abrasive belts require no dressing, eliminating time and cost. A belt changeover takes less than one minute. Products processed include hydraulic cylinder rods and tubes; motor rotors, stators and other cylindrical components; nuclear fuel rods & tubes (titanium & zirconium); pipes, chrome shafts & cold-drawn bars; and glass or composite rods & tubes. The finishing processes include heavy stock removal, tolerance grinding/sizing, fine polishing & final finishing, deburring and decorative finishing.

Advantages

Benefits

Applications

Continuous through-feed High speed rates Consistent quality High part-to-part repeatability Minimised heat and distortion

The capability for continuous through-feed in ‘one pass’ is combined with high-speed rates up to 30 m per minute. Productivity is high, and quality is consistent, with high part-to-part and setup-to-setup

repeatability. There is no distortion of the workpiece, since the regulating wheel and the work rest blade support it. The force in the cutting area is low, minimising heat and distortion of thin wall tubing, while a flood of coolant dissipates heat and removes grinding swarf for improved belt cutting action. Abrasive belts run cooler for wet or dry operations due to the large abrasive cutting surface of the belt. Switching from manual to robotic automation finishing alone can give one, three to four times longer media life, as a result of contact efficiency, constant work pressure, cycle time repeatability, and part path programming capability. Flexible, automatic force control, with variable-speed spindle motors, optimises compliance of the finishing heads to suit the operation. Offline programming and simulation speeds up the program development process and increases utilisation of the robotic finishing system. Programs for complex parts and shapes are created and verified quickly.

The latest technological advancements in machines employed in manufacturing gears have the cutters arranged in an interlocking manner, which allows a completing cutting process.

Dr Hermann J Stadtfeld

evel gears with straight teeth have an increasing popularity in the case of certain applications. Before the development of the 6-axis CNC machining process of straight bevel gears, there was no modern machinery available to cut or grind straight bevel gears. In the past, manufacturing of straight bevel gears was only possible on dedicated machines. Such machines are by nature difficult to setup with the limited ability to repeat it precisely. Mechanical machine setup has been slow and time-consuming in the past too.

Multiple axis free-form machines Manufacturers of straight bevel gears are processing mostly in low quantity and high variety of different designs. The applications are axle drives and differential gears for special equipment, machine tool applications, marine propulsion units and aircraft actuation systems. The demand for high-quality straight bevel gears is coupled with the need for surface hardening processes such as grinding.

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

Manufacturers at times have to handle a variety of materials. In addition, there may be many changeovers between each job. In normal cases, companies invest in machines for their straight bevel gear needs. A 6-axis free form machine can present a tool in every desired position and angular inclination to a workpiece. This is the basis for the latest gear cutting machines.

Inter-locking arrangement Cycle times on modern free-form machines are always less than the times on older mechanical machines. The interlocking cutter arrangement of the multi-axis free-form machines involves two cutters simultaneously in the chip removing action. The free-form gear cutting machine utilises only one cutter, and has therefore only half the number of cutting edges in action. This equation would mean that the cutting time on a free-form machine is about twice that

of a mechanical machine. However, the two cutters of a mechanical machine are not always part of the active chip removal except during the plunge part of the cycle.

Faster and greener technology The new cutter system is designed with a peripheral stick blade having a positive blade seating, which results in the reduction in cutting time, combined with improvements in gear quality and rolling characteristics. It also allows the usage of coated carbide blades in high-speed dry cutting of straight bevel gears. The new process is at least three times as fast as the traditional cutting, it avoids the usage of any cutting oils, and consumes only around 25 per cent of the electrical energy of straight bevel gear cutting. At the same time, it presents a significant leap in environmentfriendly manufacturing of straight bevel gears.

Practical Tips - Tooling ENHANCING TOOL LIFE

Need of the hour

In the product realisation cycle, after the conceptual & design phase, it is the realisation phase wherein the actual product is machined. This is the most important phase where all inputs, thought processes and creativity that have been considered during the conceptual and design phase need to be converted into a reality. The concept ‘design for manufacturing’ has been in existence for quite sometime and is being implemented to a large extent. However, the full potential has not been realised, considering the troubles in designing & selecting tools and other tooling related aspects. Recai Kipik

uring the realisation phase of a product, machining a few components for testing is accomplished in one way or the other. However, when it comes to providing solutions for mass manufacturing where the process control parameters also need to be considered, the scenario alters completely, as tool design, tool selection, tooling sequence, etc, undergo a drastic change. When it comes to the manufacturing process, the tool and the tooling company become the culprit if something goes wrong. This is the general perception despite the fact that there are several occasions where the defect/issue in a product occurs for some other reason other than the tool. This lays the foundation for explaining the importance of tools in the product realisation

phase, its commercialisation, and in turn on some aspects that need to be taken care of to prevent the tools from being the ‘weak link’. Increasing spindle speed, reducing chip load and rounding the sharp corners in tool paths are some of the important considerations for successful high-speed machining. However, stopping at these considerations may result in either breaking tools or scaling back on parameters such as cutting speeds, feed rate or depth of cut. This is a cause of concern, because if high-speed machining does not reliably deliver significantly faster throughput, high-speed machines are not worth the investment.

Ways to machine Several organisations realise that high-speed machining is a fundamentally different way to

machine. They look for ways to continuously improve their processes on high-speed equipment. Some of the improvements can be quite simple. What follows are ideas that one might adopt today to better realise the value of own high-speed machining process. Even though one can be confronted with difficult-to-machine materials, the need to machine faster, improve surface finish, etc, it is important to stick to the basics. This ensures that chips are formed in a proper manner, assuring that chips carry the heat away, and are transported away from the machined area, clearing the path for further cutting. The following are some important factors to be considered: Eliminate the sharp corners and edges: Sharp corners in tool always hinder the flow of chips. They also make the tool weak,

Practical Tips - Tooling

by increasing the possibility of microchipping, particularly in hard and brittle cutting tool materials. Hence, sharp corners that are exposed to the chips or in the path of the chips need to be eliminated. Fortunately, there are quite a few options available today to enable this. Surface finish of the tools: The smooth flow of chips carries the heat away from the cutting area, thereby maintaining the same cutting conditions under which the tool needs to perform. It has been observed that improving the surface finish in drilling and reaming tools can lead to improvement in tool life by up to 20-25 per cent. Shorter tool length is better: A cutting tool is a cantilever beam, with the cutting force acting at its free end. Proven physical equations show that

the deflection is exponentially proportional to the length of the cutting tool. For example, a 6 mm diameter tool set at 24 mm length can deflect 50 per cent more than the same toolset at 20 mm length. Deflection at the cutting edge is the primary cause behind various negative effects such as chatter, wobble and impact deflection. Maintaining machine and accessories: For habitual reasons, cutting tool is blamed for any manufacturing defects before considering the machining process or conditions in totality. Paying a little attention to some of the related aspects would help identify the problem correctly. For example, Figure 1 depicts the ideal speed and feed rates for different materials for a single-flute gun drill. Paying attention to such details help in maintaining tools and increasing its efficiency. Clean the machine spindle: The machining spindle of today is capable of turning thousands of revolutions per minute, carrying

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

the tool along with it. Unclean spindles can induce runouts on the tool, and further usage under such conditions can cause induce runout in the spindle itself making machining process unstable. Quality of tool-holder: Similar to the machine spindle, the tool-holder is also important. Dirty/worn-out tool-holders can generate undesired effects in the behaviour of tools. Despite the tool being technically good, deficiencies of the tool-holder will reflect on the tool. Quality of the coolant: The quality of the coolant plays an important role in maintaining desired machining condition. Clean coolants will improve the life of the spindle and tool-holder by preventing any impurities from settling on them. Especially, in the case of tools with internal coolant holes,

it ensures adequate flow of the cutting fluid to the cutting area enabling chip evacuation. Quality of the job clamping: Majority of tool failures have been traced back to the quality of the job holding systems. Improper job holdings can lead to imbalance in the machining process, particularly in the case of high-speed machining where the cutting parameters are high. Any instability in job clamping will dislocate the function, leading to wrong areas being machined or fouling, leading to tool breakage. Know your controller: Some controllers feature highspeed processing modes that provide aggressive acceleration and deceleration rates during roughing operations where submicron accuracy is overkill.

Practical Tips - Maintenance INDUSTRIAL ROBOTS

Lending a helping hand Industrial robots, as a rule, are easy – at least for industrial users. In the automotive industry, there is a constant demand for clean assembly parts, and robots can offer the required helping hand in maintaining the shop floor. Kunal Sharma

series of robots executing the mundane cleaning and maintenance process - the future of high-tech job shops has arrived to serve the automotive industry. Programmed to operate in synchronised succession of steps, the effortless execution of cleaning processes is reflected in the choreographic sensibility of complex movements. Anti-lock Breaking System (ABS) controllers, injectors and high-pressure diesel injection pumps tolerate no contamination, whether in the form of oil residue from prior production steps or as solid particles adhering to their surface. Such foreign matter may cause part failures, which in turn, can lead to vehicle breakdown – a worstcase scenario for any manufacturer.

Diversity without end For a parts supplier, the cleanliness problem is further aggravated by the multitude of different parts, which may go into the same car series. To explain this phenomenon, let us consider a diesel injection pump. Almost without exception, car manufacturers today sell their vehicles all over the world. But different markets impose different standards in terms of exhaust gas control, fuel grades, torque curves, or even general engine performance data. One way of handling these parameters is by adapting and

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

changing the design of the injection pump. Although it may look virtually identical anywhere in the world, this kind of pump comes in many variations. For instance, the size and number of holes, different geometries, or variations in surface finish. All these factors must be managed for product lot sizes ranging up to several hundred thousand items per year. And whenever a manufacturer includes a new engine in its range or modifies an existing type, its suppliers have to respond quickly and reliably. A new or modified part must not be allowed to become a hindrance in the ongoing production run. For a series of robots to function in sync and work efficiently, the range of parts to be handled must share identical robot gripping points. Once this is ensured, the system can clean parts in any succession or quantity – even one-off items – in one continuous sequence.

ensured by mounting replacable plates on the multi-purpose tank, which allow further cleaning processes to be added as required. Once this robot has completed its wash program, it unloads the part on a small transfer table attached to the wall of the neighbouring robot cell. A hinged hatch near the transfer table opens automatically and allows the second robot in the next cell to grip the part, which is then subjected to a high-pressure deburring cycle at 300-600 bar pressure, depending on user specifications. The high-powered pumps needed for this step are pressure-controlled via variable frequency drive units. The options available include high-pressure components such as lances for deep holes, nozzle rakes for smaller surfaces, or rotary nozzles covering larger areas. Moreover, flat and solid-jet nozzles can be employed for pinpointed deburring tasks.

In sync

No bottlenecks

The ‘choreographed’ cleaning process always starts at the loading station, where the code appearing on each part is read by a camera, which feeds the required information to the cleaning system-enabling the program to start. The first robot grips the part and executes the preset cleaning program. In this installation, the first cell is a pre-wash performed by an injection flood wash system using stationary spray nozzles. Flexibility is

Since high-pressure deburring takes the longest time of all the processing steps involved (depending on the part geometry), the robot in second cell in the link line is larger than the others. It can, if necessary, accommodate a second robot (which would then be the fifth in the entire system) to guarantee the desired cycle time of around 40 seconds. A potential bottleneck at the high-pressure deburring station can thus be easily avoided. Part transfer

Practical Tips - Maintenance to robot in the third cell is once again accomplished by a small wall-mounted table with a hatch behind it. In this cell the part undergoes fine cleaning with a subsequent blowoff cycle. This blow-off step removes the cleaning fluid from the part already in the transfer station.

Finer and cleaner The step-by-step nature of the cleaning process is reflected in the gradual filtration of the cleaning fluid. In chamber 1, particles down to 20 µm are filtered out, while in cell no 2, solids down to 5 µm particle size are removed. In cell no 3, the filter captures particles down to as small as 1 µm. In order to avoid re-contamination by the surrounding shop air at this high degree of cleanliness, the system’s air handling equipment is of appropriately sophisticated design. The entire robotics link installation is run at a positive pressure to prevent any ingress of dirt-laden air. In the final stage, the cleaned parts exit the system. However, before this happens, the parts must be dried in the fourth cell. The last robot takes the part from the transfer station at cell no 3 and places it in one of the two vacuum-drying chambers. While the part is dried and eventually exits from the station through an air lock, the robot already loads or unloads the second chamber. The two chambers are thus used parallely to allow sufficient drying time. In this manner, cycle time targets can be met or even reduced, and there is no standstill time of the robot as it utilises the drying phase by handling another part. Depending on the customer’s manufacturing environment, the finished parts can then be removed by hand or delivered to their destination by a belt conveyor.

Development with the customer It is a system that can be installed in close co-ordination with the customer. The resulting equipment meets all of the end user’s requirements. Along with the actual cleaning specification, flexibility can also be identified as a key objective. This involves the creation of various programming and plant control options, plus the possibility to retrofit additional robots and nozzle systems. Theoretically, the system can handle 9,999 different parts using a separate program for each. Each cell operates independently, handling background functions such as the supply of cleaning fluid and filtering tasks, allowing the linked robots to serve diverse requirement scenarios. It will be interesting to see where this type of ‘choreographed’ robot technology will make its next performance.

Practical Tips - Maintenance HYDRAULICS

Tips to increase productivity and cost-effectiveness In any manufacturing industry, equipment are the most important components in productivity. And, machines output the products at an economical rate when they are planned for mass production. However, idle or downtime of these machines is expensive. Maintenance is responsible for smooth & efficient working of machines and helps in improving its productivity.

M Rajendra and Venkataramanappa C

he Hydraulics & Pneumatics (H&P) industry in India evolved with the need of mechanisation and simplification of operating machines. Over the years, the scope for the H&P industry has widened and the applications too have become widespread. In India, since the 1980s to1990s, the industry employed open loop hydraulic systems. Majority of the equipment manufactured were in the low pressure segment, and the industry was hesitant to adopt the high pressure system. In the 1990s, with increasing globalisation, the industry gradually moved towards using high pressure equipment. Currently, India is one of the fastest growing markets for hydraulic components such as valves, cylinders, accumulators, pumps, hydraulic hoses, filters, etc. The total market size for these components is $ 650 million About 60 per cent of this market is in the mobile segment and the rest is in the industrial market. The advantage of using hydraulics is that it gives greater precision and accuracy for the machine tool industry. In addition, it allows better control in operations,

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

and hence companies are increasingly looking for retrofit solutions for their existing systems.

Maintenance: A must Maintenance is a system, which involves sub-elements to restore the machinery in a plant into working condition when they are under break down. It is the process of keeping the system intact by upgrading and replacing the necessary elements when the system fails to perform accordingly. Proper and regular maintenance of hydraulic equipment is a prime concern for industries in ensuring long service life, and preventing damages to the equipment or machines. The following are some tips to consider while repairing a hydraulic equipment to increase productivity and achieve cost efficiency.

Indigenous parts in old equipment Majority of the industries possess old and wornout imported equipment. These might be strong but the availability of spares is an issue. As these equipment are 50-

60 years old, their parent or the manufacturing companies may not be available to avail spares as they must have stopped manufacturing these products long back. Hence, we have to depend on substitutes or alternatives, and we may not know the exact capacity, speed, etc of the equipment to seek a replacement. One can also not manufacture the spares. Therefore, the capacity and functioning of the equipment may not be up to the mark. The hydraulic system may malfunction and damage the equipment. In such circumstances, the only alternative is to replace the hydraulic power pack itself. It is also beneficial to warm up machines before an operation satrts. The hydraulic system achieves maximum efficiency only after it reaches the operating temperature. For the system to attain operating temperature, it should be idle for 15 minute.

Preventive maintenance This is a necessity. A periodical inspection of the equipment can avoid complete halting of the machine.

Practical Tips - Maintenance Words of advice

Use oils recommended by the manufacturer Match specification of mountings and couplings during the replacement of pumps New hoses must be thoroughly flushed and blown by air at relevant pressure Fasteners must be checked and secured tightly For the system to attain operating temperature, it should be idle for 15 minute A periodical inspection of the equipment can avoid complete halting of the machine The charging pressure of the accumulator is always 70 per cent of the system pressure

For any hydraulic system, preventive or periodic maintenance is necessary to run the system at least for a minimum of five years. One should replace the hydraulic oil at regular intervals, clean the filters, and check the functions of Direction Control (DC) valves. Due to vibration, joints and fasteners may become loose, causing oil leakage. To avoid this, all fasteners in the system must be checked and secured tightly. The charging pressure of the accumulator must also be checked, and it needs to be confirmed that it is always 70 per cent of the system pressure. Temperature is also a major criteria for the system. If temperature exceeds 60-70Â°C, air cooling or AC unit is necessary for cooling the oil.

Replacement technologies While replacing hydraulic hoses, one should ensure that there is no blockage inside the pipe. If hoses are procured and kept for a long period in one place, there are chances of clogging. All new hoses must be thoroughly flushed from the inside and blown by air at the relevant pressure to make it clean before installation. In the case of DC valves, ascertain the drawing on the valve for replacing it. The plastic cover has to be opened after ensuring that the DC valve mounting place is free from all dirt & ready to be assembled. Also one needs to check whether the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; rings are at their respective

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

places, and in the direction of existing valve.

Contamination This is a major issue in hydraulic systems. Oil may contaminate due to external environment like topping up of oil, dusty surface area of hydraulic tank, dirty funnel, dirty container, dirty measure, etc. This contaminated oil can cause sticky movement of DC valves and improper movement of slides. Frequent sludge removing and filtering of oil - updates the maintenance staff regarding the condition of the system.

Find and analyse When executing a fault-finding process, it is necessary to analyse the issue before opening any component. The technician should first ascertain whether it is a mechanical, electrical or a hydraulic issue. In new machines with automated system, one can operate it manually to determine the fault. DC valves can be operated manually by pushing pins at ends. Over-heating of defective solenoid coils also causes issues. Often, hydraulic gauges also signal towards malfunctioning of processes.

While troubleshooting, it is noticed that people continue to replace components until they identify the right spot. A sequence should be followed during faultfinding. The more the number of components are opened in the hydraulic system, the more dirt enters the system. Care should be taken to drop the oil pressure while opening the hydraulic system.

Replacing pumps During the replacement of pumps, one should see that the mountings and couplings are matching the specification. After the assembly, the pump with the same hydraulic oil and start-run, can achieve 40-50 kg/cm2 pressure. And, if this is not observed, one should change the direction of the pump motor and check. After satisfactory running of the pump, it needs to be slowly loaded it one after the other.

Skilled technicians There is a lack of competent hydraulic technicians in the maintenance department throughout the industry. To overcome this, training must be provided to the current manpower.

Oils Oils recommended by the manufacturer are to be used on the machine or equipment to avoid premature wear out of hydraulic pump piston, oil seals, etc. Although, regular maintenance is required for hydraulic equipment, it is worth the time and cost as a well-maintained system ensures productivity. It is important that machinery in a plant should be maintained to work on a continuous basis.

Practical Tips - Maintenance METALWORKING FLUIDS

Courtesy: Sah Petroleums Ltd

Maintaining manufacturing momentum Metalworking fluids are a key component in any machining and grinding process. The best machining performance can be achieved only with the right combination of machine, tool, metallurgy and the metalworking fluids. This article is intended to help in basic understanding of the different technologies available in the market. Dr Indrajit Banerjee

etalworking fluids are multi-functional and the correct choice is based on the type of machining or grinding, machine setups, water conditions, surface finish requirements etc. The choice of metalworking fluids can directly impact the product quality, productivity and overall operational cost. It is often confusing to make the right choice with so many products and technologies being offered by different companies. Therefore, it is necessary to select the right type of cutting fluid for enhancing performances.

Different types of fluids Neat oils These are being used since ages for different metal removal processes and they continue to enjoy the patronage with customers for certain metal removal process. They are extremely good lubricants and are still considered to be the product of choice for certain heavy duty applications. Key advantages in using this oil are: it provides good lubricity, its unit costs cheaper, it requires minimal maintenance and there is no risk of microbial related skin irritation. However, it involves high cost during

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

the initial filling and disposal, and requires chillers to prevent the oil from over-heating. The oil also results in slippery floors, which increases the risk of fire.

Semi-synthetic oils Although on the higher side of the price list, these oils are based on latest technologies, and are the preferred by most of the modern

With the advancement in machines comes the bigger challenge of designing coolants which can cool and give adequate lubricity under such high stress conditions.

Water miscible products These products are popular for different machining and grinding operations. These can be broadly classified as traditional soluble oils and the semi-synthetic micro-emulsions. Soluble oils These are high mineral oil containing products that can be used for variety of operations. These give adequate lubricity characteristics but have limitations on variety of other aspects. However, these are cheaper compared to other oils. On the flip side these oils have limited sump life, detergency characteristics and minimal biostatic characteristics.

metalworking fluid users. The products are a complex mixture of various ingredients which allows it to impart a whole range of superior characteristics such as long sum life, consistent emulsion characteristics, excellent corrosion resistance, minimal microbial problems, and excellent detergency characteristics. Besides, the above mentioned oils, there are some products which are purely water-based and are referred as synthetic solutions. Currently, this concept is more or less restricted for grinding applications where the lubrication requirement is quite minimal. The product is preferred by some users as it gives a clear transparent

Practical Tips - Maintenance Choosing the right cutting fluid Following factors need to be considered: Corossion protection requirements Material/machine/human compatibility Machine downtime Sump life of the coolant Effort/cost involved in disposal solution when mixed with water which enables better operator visibility.

Recent trends With the tightening of environmental norms across the globe, coolant disposal is becoming more and more complex and expensive. The longer sump life of semi-synthetic coolants comes as a big boon for the plants, as most of them have limitations of treating huge volumes of waste coolant at one go. If maintained properly the emulsions in central systems easily last for more than a year. Also, the stringent HSE regulations are restricting the use of several ingredients in the product formulations since exposure to metalworking fluids can potentially cause a variety of skin and breathing related illness. In Europe there has already been a strict restriction on the type and usage level of chlorine, boron and amines besides a lot of other ingredients. It is expected that such norms will come into force in India in the coming days. Another trend that is emerging is the change in design of machines. The machines along with the advancement in tools are all leading to higher speed of operations. But with the advancement in the machines comes the bigger challenge of designing coolants which can cool and give adequate lubricity under such high stress conditions. The traditional product concepts fail to deliver the required product attributes, which lead to constant research to strengthen the semi-synthetic products. Because of lighter weights there has been a shift in the metallurgy from ferrous to aluminium, titanium and other nonferrous metals especially in some niche application areas. This change in metallurgy also leads to changes in the metalworking fluids from traditional products to high-end product lines. Lately, there has been a drastic shift in the focus of customers regarding the selection of metalworking fluids. It has been demonstrated by different suppliers across the globe that substantial cost reduction can be achieved even with the use of a much expensive product when compared against the traditional concepts. With increasing competition, the pressure is on machines to work at full-capacity and selecting the right metalworking fluid ensures this.

Market Trends CNC MACHINES

Bridging the demandsupply gap India imports 80 per cent of its Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machine requirements. Following the recent upswing in the manufacturing sector, many local and global companies are now eyeing this lucrative machine tool market for the supply of CNC machines. Rachita Jha

Auto drive The automotive sector bounced back rapidly, post the economic slowdown. Dependent heavily on small and medium enterprises for majority of its components, this revival phase was quick to trickle through the automotive component suppliers across India. Machining for these components in high volume requires machines that possess speed, precision and productivity at the same time. Hemant Kumar, Vice President, Jyoti CNC Automation Pvt Ltd avers, “The auto sector (two- and fourwheeler segments) has been the key growth driver for CNC machines in India. This is followed by the general engineering industry. The CNC machines increase productivity and help in charting out buyers are not investment strategies from the corporate

sector; instead these orders are mainly arriving from the tier I, III, IV segments in the micro, small and medium scale industry.”

Popular features Due to the increase in volume, companies are now seeking fool-proof machines, which have zero-breakdown. This is followed by minimum human involvement, therefore a high degree of automation is in demand. “Repeatability has become an important aspect of a machining capability and companies are now putting their money in it. Once a machine has been set for a particular dimensional and functional parameters, the customer expects that the CNC machine should have the capability to continue to machine for a long duration,” adds Kumar. These requirements are easily met by a CNC machine that enables the user to leapfrog its productivity and chart out investment strategy, keeping in mind the superior quality of products.

Demand-supply gap The absence of high-technology CNC machine manufacturers in India is prompting many companies to source it from global suppliers. Considered as a cost-intensive business, manufacturing of CNC machines requires a lot of investment, trained manpower and multiple component manufacturing & assembly capabilities. “In India, the demand and supply ratio for CNC machines is 1:5, which means if 100 machines

are required in the country, the Indian machine tool industry is able to supply only 20 machines. This situation has been witnessed, after a sudden rise in demand that has caught the machine tool industry unprepared. A lot of foreign manufacturers who already have a ready stock of machines and the capability to deliver them are sending their machines to India,” says Kumar. Following the revival in the economy, there has been a sudden rise in demand for machine tools that needs to be supplied to the manufacturing sector.

A value proposition There is a high level of uncertainty in the scale and continuity of demand

MODERN MACHINE TOOLS - January 2011

for CNC machines. Therefore, even if an investment is made to augment the current production capacity, this being highly capital-intensive, one cannot plan any capacity expansion in accordance to the current demand. On the other hand, import of low-technology machines such as the turning centres and VMCs to India at cheaper prices is also on the rise. “We have adopted a strategy to invest in high-technology machines, where the number of CNC machines are less but the features are more. Also, we have shifted our focus towards the government markets as these are long-term and stable ones. The fiveaxis machines are highly sophisticated and we look forward to tap these

markets in India and across the globe,” says Kumar.

Beyond boundaries The absence of a streamlined and robust supply chain for machines imported from Europe has been a bottleneck for the Indian machine tool industry. “The short supply of such machine parts and components takes a long time to reach the destination as these have to arrive from Europe. The long delay results in significant downtime for the companies. This issue is easily addressed when we consider the CNC machines manufactured in the country itself,” observes Kumar. The current production capacity of Indian CNC machine manufacturers is not sufficient to augment the demand levels. Today, if we consider that 80 per cent of the machines are imported, it reflects on the market potential, which is available for CNC machines in India. This can be an upcoming segment that can be explored in the coming years.

Launch Pad PECM machine Electronica Machine Tools offers Precision Electrochemical Machining (PECM) technology. ECM is a similar concept that of electric discharge machining, in which, high current is passed between an electrode and the part, through an electrolyte, however there is no tool wear in ECM. Unlike EDM, no sparks are created. The work-piece is eroded away in the reverse process to electroplating. Very high material removal rates are possible in ECM, along with no thermal or mechanical stresses being transferred to the work-piece, and mirror surface finish is possible. ECM can cut intricate Hall 3B contours or cavities in extremely hard 6 0 Stall C1 steel or exotic metals such as titanium, inconel, hastelloy, kovar and carbide without any tool wear. The process being ‘cold’, no heat is generated and thus no change in metal`s microstructure. Zero electrode wear, hence as many as parts with the repeatability of ±0.002 mm can be produced. Depending upon the cavity to be machined it is 10 to 1,000 times faster than EDM. The machine is equipped with ‘ET-Eco-1’ eco-friendly automatic waste disposal system. Applications are in aerospace – finger seal ring, turbine blade with regular micro-relief; tool production – tablet punches, swaging tool, indexable inserts of

hard alloy; medical engineering – scalpel for eye micro surgery, fragment of coronal bone implant, special alloy screws; and in motor industry - cylindrical toothed wheel, conical toothed wheel and parts of spline.

Bandsaw machine Lalita Machine Tools offers a new version of pivot type bandsaw machine. Generally, in pivot type bandsaw machine, the lifting of cutting arm is manual. So, after cutting the job, one has to lift the cutting arm up to the job size. The cutting feed in manual pivot type bandsaw machine is `gravity - self weight’ only. So, the cutting feed is not uniform throughout the job size. It varies as per the gravity – weight of the arm. Now, in new development, there is an electromechanical device, which eliminates the drawback of `gravity feeding’ and `manual arm lifting’. In this arrangement, the cutting feed can be adjusted precisely as per the grade of material. The cutting feed is controlled by infinitely variable drive knob. It can be increased or decreased as in the case of hydraulic feeding. Moreover, after cutting of the job, the machine arm gets lifted automatically up to the job size or setting of upper limit switch. Auto lifting and cutting feed adjustment device makes the pivot type bandsaw machine more precise and vibrationfree. So, the life of bandsaw blade will increase and the cutting accuracy will be better than conventional pivot type bandsaw machine.

CNC tool grinding centre

Multifunctional machining centre

Saacke offers CNC tool grinding centre model UW I F. This machine is designed for re-sharpening and manufacturing of tools up to 20 mm diameter. Saacke has achieved a high degree of automation for the manufacturing of small lot sizes with the integration of a grinding wheel changer and a ‘Pick-Up’-loading unit in the working space of this compact machine. Advantages of this machine include short changeover times of the grinding wheels. The necessary spindle gets its power through the use of a direct-drive motor spindle having a peak capacity of 16 kW. The grinding centre can be equipped with automatic chain-driven tool loaders. In these highly flexible systems, the 64 and 160-tool devices can be stocked chaotically. Multiple collets having different IDs required for the various tool grinding processes are also stored in the loader and can automatically be changed. Thus, tools with varying diameters in HSS or carbide can be loaded and unloaded by the loading system. The stocking of the loader and the programming of the tool data can be done in parallel during the grinding operation, resulting in minimal machine idle time.

Product Showcase - Europe Morse taper shank drills Nui offers a range of Morse taper shank drills with variations in point angle, HSS & HSSCo grade and coolant feed options (radial or axial for example). Morse taper shank drills represent the only effective solution when a deep-hole application is needed, from 40 times the diameter, on conventional machines and also in case of crossed holes where the solid carbide fails because of the interrupted cut caused by the corner of holes. Morse taper shank coolant feed drills find applications in the medium and heavy metal working sector. The internal coolant feed system helps to keep the tool itself cold and bringing directly the lubricant on the drillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edge allows the cutting area to remain warmer. This process allows higher cutting speeds, reducing the working cycle up to 75 per cent, higher feed rates, longer tool life from 3 to 10 times, less frequent re-sharpening and provides a superior superficial finishing. Application fields can be: building construction, factory sheds, frames for single or multi-floor building, roofs, flitch girders, bridges for railway, road viaducts, foot bridges and parking spaces; oil & gas sector, pipeline construction, turbines; heat exchangers sector, deep tube sheets, baffles, flangers and channel covers.

This machine has the advantage of setting the moulds anywhere and allow stamping, folding, shearing, syntherising, pressing with just one press. The moulds are protected against damage by a double safety: by position adjustable centesimal and by hydraulics overload. The press and its moulds have long life because the moving plate is carefully guided during the entire stroke, guaranteeing a low friction and high precision.

Mikron Tool offers a new ball-shaped milling cutter, MiquMill Radiuschamfer. Due to its 300o cutting range, it is universal and can be used wherever difficult deburring operations have to be performed. Available with ball diameters starting from 1 mm and due to an extra long neck, this new tool reaches also hidden angles and edges. The positive cutting geometry allows a sharp cut and thus a perfect deburring without forming of secondary burrs. It easily removes ductile, flexible burrs too and can be used for all kinds of metals. These features make it a ‘jack-of-alltrades’ because it can be adopted not only for front and back chamfering, but also for various inner and outer contour machining operations, for intersections of bores and milled shapes. The standard executions with a ball diameter from 1 mm to 6 mm and a usable length of 4 x d are available. Custom-designed executions with project-specific dimensions are also available.
