HMT AJMER UNIT PROFILE

The unit was established at Ajmer as MACHINE TOOL CORPORATION OF INDIA LIMITED a government of India undertaking in January, 1967bin collaboration with M/s. WMW, GDR, the then east Germany, for the purpose of making India self-reliant in manufacture of precision grinding machines. This unit was merged with M/s.HMT Limited in 1975. From 1.4.2000 it became a unit of HMT MACHINE TOOLS LTD., a wholly owned subsidiary of HMT Limited.

CORE IS A PART OF FOUNDARY WORKSHOP WHICH IS MADE BY THE SAND AND USED TO GET THE HOLLOW PORTION , HOLES, SHAPES WHICH CANT GET BY THE PATTERN IN THE CASTING.

MOULD SECTION
Mould Is A Cavity Which Is Made By The

Pattern .The Process Of Making Cavity Or Mould Is Called Mould.

SELECTION OF PERFECT IRON BOX. SET THE PATTERN ON BOTTOM BOARD KEEP IRON BOX ON PATTERN POUR THE SAND OVERTURN THE IRON BOX SET THE SECOND PART OF PATTERN WITH HELP

OF DOVEL PINS POUR THE SAND UNPLUG THE COPE REMOVE THE PATTERN NOW MOULD IS READY IN TWO PARTS..

GRINDING PROCESS
GRINDING IS AN ABRASIVE MACHINING PROCESS THAT USES A GRINDING WHEEL AS THE CUTTING TOOL. GRINDING IS A PROCESSING TO REMOVING METAL IN SMALL VOLUME FROM WORKPIECE.
GRINDING IS A FINISHING PROCESS FOR ACHIEVING : - Close size tolerances - Better Geometrical Accuracies - Better Surface Roughness

GRINDING PROCESS
Cutting speed of Grinding Wheel.

=3.14xDxN/

60x1000 m/sec. Surface speed of job =3.14x dn/ 1000 m/min Grinding ratio= GW speed/Work speed = 60-100 (Rough-Finish)

CLOSE DIMENSIONAL TOLERANCE SURFACE FINISH SHARPING OF CUTTING TOOLS MACHINING HARD SURFACES SOME TIMES HIGHER METAL REMOVALS

NO FEED MARKS
LESS CUTTING FORCE REMOVING METAL FROM COMPLEX SHAPES

ITS ONLY MATHOD OF MACHINING AFTER

HARDNING
ACCURACEY ACHIVE 0.02MM SURFACE FINISH 0.1 MICRON

GRINDING WHEEL
GRINDING WHEEL IS ROTATING AT VERY HIGH SPEED. GRINDING WHEEL IS A MULTI-POINT CUTTING TOOL.

CUTTING IS ACHIEVED BY RELATIVE ROTATION OF

JOB w.r.t. GRINDING WHEEL..

OF

GRINDING WHEEL AND WORK

19

Increase in GW speed

Chip thickness decrease Cutting forces decreases Better MRR can be achieved Wheel act HARDER. Surface Roughness improves. Centrifugal forces due to unbalance of GW increases.

20

INCREASE IN WORK SPEED

Chip thickness increases. Wheel wear increases. Cutting ability of wheel decreases. Surface finish deteriorates. Wheel acts softer.

21

WHEEL SIZE V/S WORK SIZE

BIGGER SIZE OF WHEEL BIGGER SIZE OF WORK
- -Material removal increases. - -Wheel wear increases. - -Size variation increases.

-More cutting particle per wheel rev. -Better cooling of wheel . - Cooler cutting action. -Less wheel wear. -Better size controls. -Inertia forces increases. -Centrifugal forces due to unbalance of wheel increases . - Therefore optimum wheel size to be selected.

- -Contact area increases so lesser

feed to be used. - -Therefore optimum work size to be - selected for EFFICIENT GRINDING.
