Gorton 1-22 Trace-Master Cam Milling

Gorton 1-22 Trace-Master, hydraulic duplicator mill from 1957. Milling out a prototype turret cam for a Index B30 screw machine. 3/8" 6061 aluminum. Sorry, no audio for some reason.

Using a pantomill to make swiss screw machine cams. I absolutely love this 👌
I'll probably be doing the same thing in a couple weeks 😆

Great! I wouldn't mind seeing some of your set-ups. Recently bought a Swiss machine, I'm still working on figuring it out. ([e-mail]) Just to mention, this cam has made thousands of parts and it's still looking good.

@@Ivan4171 Cool! I'll most likely be doing a video on them once they're set up in the new shop. I've got a small Swiss screw machine, and I'll most likely be picking up another two in a little bit. It's gonna be a long process of getting it all figured out, but it'll be so worth it to have it running. And because there's so little content on the internet about them, I feel obligated to share whatever I'm able to learn about them lol

@@Ivan4171 interested in any parts. I just got one of these in a buy out. But it doesn’t have the hydraulic tank and pump setup anymore. Everything else though is still there.

hi, is it possible to make an aluminum injection mold for plastic injection with this machine? how accurate is it?

[@Indiana_John]

I know this is a few years late, but pantographs are stupid precise

[@Ivan4171]

@@Indiana_John I agree, I've been using both Deckel and Gorton pantograph's for milling and mold work, their amazing!

I’m wondering how to do three dimensional replication of unusual shapes. I’m prototyping a cylinder head design in aluminum and I have to copy complex combustion chamber shapes and intake port shapes. Have you tried three-dimensional shapes?
