Shaft and Pole-cutting Machine—The shaft and pole-rounding machine shown in Fig. 5 has four cutter heads, each having three flat shear-cut knives. These heads are used for rounding, containing various widths of knives from1 ½ to 3 in., their edges ground different shapes to suit the work. Two adjustable rings or guides surround each head, and are adjusted to or from each other for regulating the depth of cut. The fourth head, which forms a buzz-planer attachment, is furnished with straight-faced knives 5 in. wide, with adjustable tables, and a stationary fence, on each side. The machine will work round, oval, sharp, or chamfered work, dress up fellies, fit carriage-body part, and answers various other purposes. The shaft and pole heel-tapering machine, shown in Fig. 6, is for tapering and finishing the heels or bent ends of shafts. There are two disks, each 24 in. in diameter, and each bearing in its face three flat knives set at the proper angle to give a shear cut, the maximum length of cut being 18 in. The end of the pole or shaft to be tapered is placed on the table, between the disks, between the parallel guide and cutter head, and moved toward the spindle until a stop or end gauge is reached. By repeating this operation with the opposite head, both sides of the shaft pole are finished without turning over or reversing the work. |
