(see Figure 3-1). Using up and down ARROW keys,
you can move this marker to a place in bore that you
would like to dwell. When you press dwell button,
stroker will dwell for two seconds in location that you
selected with arrow keys. This button can be held in to
make machine dwell longer.
Tool with Mandrel Adapter
1. If workpiece gets barreled or bellmouthed during
honing, first try making adjustments
, located in Run
Menu, F7-Geometry Adjustments.
2. If workpiece gets bellmouthed during honing,
shorten stone only; do not shorten shoe. If workpiece
gets barrel shaped during honing, shorten shoe only; do
not shorten stone.
CV/CK-Series Hone Heads
1. If workpiece gets barreled or bellmouthed during
honing, first try making adjustments
, located in Run
Menu, F7-Geometry Adjustments.
If hole is bellmouthed, shorten stroke. If hole is barrel
shaped, lengthen stroke. If stone becomes tapered,
check alignment guides for proper setting. Also check
Main guide #3 for taper. If guide is tapered, shorten
guide on thick end and place #1 stone in #2 position
and vice-versa.
GH-Series Hone Heads
1. If workpiece gets barreled or bellmouthed during
honing, first try making adjustments
, located in Run
Menu, F7-Geometry Adjustments.
2.
If hole is bellmouthed, shorten stroke. If hole is
barrel shaped, lengthen stroke.
Extra Fine Stones
Finishing stones, 280 grit and finer, are available for
applications where a finer finish is required. When
these fine grit stones use a conventional or vitrified
bond, there is a delicate balance between glazing,
which is caused by insufficient stone pressure, and
stone crumbling, which is caused by excessive feed
rates.
The SV-Series has several features to aid in finding this
balance and maintaining consistent honing performance.
First of these is “Rapid Until Load” feature, which is
found in the setup screen under Feed Prehone
, this is
located in Run Menu, F4-Edit Setup, F5-Column A
Setup
. This is percentage of spindle's full load that
machine waits to see, before machine stops Rapid
advancing and starts to use programmed feed rate.
Another feature is Load Meter and its display
characteristics. There are three displays that are
available to operator. First is BORE PROFILE. This
display shows a picture of load vs. stroke position
through bore. In most cases it will display condition of
bore (i.e., taper, barrel, or bellmouth) during cycle.
Second type of display is BAR GRAPH. This display
shows a bar graph of machine load as cycle progresses.
Last display is LOAD GRAPH. This display will show
machine load vs time. Last display will help in
optimizing Rapid Until Load (RUL) value. If you use
load graph to determine RUL, ideal condition is to have
trend of graph be horizontal. If trend is upward, RUL is
too low. If trend is downward, RUL is too high.
