Machining the Flanges

  • This video shows the machining of the flanges for the flow sight glass I'm making. Due to the size of the thing, I once again stretched the limits of my lathe - or at least my knowledge of how to use it - but I got it done. Advice is welcome, trolls are not, and if you think I need better PPE or tools, feel free to contact me for an address where you can send them.

    chip load up I use Wd40 n maching and tapping works very well on aluminum saves on buying new cutters breaking a tap off

    Thanks, I like WD40 as well, but I was out! :^) I did have Hilco lube, but I didn't want to use any lubricants here because the flanges require welding, and I figured having no lubricant residue to clean off the porous cast aluminum would help reduce any welding problems.

    Hey Joe La Roche, no this is not a cnc lathe, just an ENCO.

    A good welder would clean any part before welding. And is this machine your using a cnc?

    Just to help some b of you guys save time. You can skip the center drill operation. Use a screw machine drill. They are short and stubby and will stay on center to get your hole started. 118

      sorry, I do not understand your question

    could we convert RF flanges to RTJ ?

    • @nurfays123
      @nurfays123  Před 2 lety

      I suppose - never done it myself having never needed an RTJ. Is there enough difference in cost to be worth the trouble? Having said that - You would want to make sure the RF would meet the specs of the RTJ, I think I would go with a purchase if you're talking about a high temp/pressure application.

      @@nurfays123 thank you for your comment...let me explain in detail...indeed I am a valves trader and my supplier has too long lead time for Valves with RTJ connection...and I lost a lot of business ...so I'm looking for a solution...I buy Valves with RF and I mechanically transform them into RTJ...is it possible to do that without touching the valve integrity ?

    Your speeds for pilot holes is to slow especially with no lubricant on aluminium..?? And tapping a hole with out lube will tear the threads, facing your flange with a boring bar what's with that?? Everything in with this video I could pick on not to trade practices, you would not work in my machine shop

      +FlashTechEngineering thanks for watching the vid, I can only work with what I have. Good thing I'm not a machinist eh?

      BTW I used the boring bar for the same reason Keith did here @ 15:14: czcams.com/video/ype-yeZ_eck/video.html , reaching over the gap
