- Product Description
-
A slender 304 stainless steel shaft with multiple turned diameters and a visible annular shoulder near one end. The part is machined on a Swiss lathe and finished by grinding and polishing.
Product Information
Material 304 stainless steel Manufacturing process Swiss lathe machining Visible geometry Slender shaft sections, multiple diameter steps, and an annular shoulder Post-processing Grinding and polishing Turning the Slender Sections
The smaller diameter sections are less rigid under cutting loads. They can deflect or vibrate as the tool passes, affecting diameter and surface finish. Workpiece support and cutting load must be managed along the shaft, especially as stock removal reduces the section diameter.
Controlling the Steps
Each turned diameter, section length, and shoulder location must be coordinated against the drawing datums to limit cumulative axial error. Work hardening, material sticking to the cutting edge, and difficult chip breaking in 304 stainless steel can also affect tool life and the machined surface.
Grinding and Polishing
The thicker and thinner sections require different amounts of stock removal. Finishing allowance and contact pressure need to be controlled near the steps so the slender sections are not ground undersize and shoulder edges retain the specified profile.
Project Value
The central manufacturing challenge is to maintain the relationship between multiple turned diameters and shoulder positions through both machining and finishing, particularly where slender sections meet larger diameters.
