The J. G. Blount Co., Everett, Mass., has just placed on the market a line of ball-bearing butting machines consisting of three sizes. The No. 5 machine illustrated is the medium size. The design of these machines is very similar to that of the regular buffing machines manufactured by this concer, but an added feature is the S K F ball bearings contained in dustproof mountings, with which they are equipped. The bearings are secured to the spindle by a light driving fit and lock-nuts. The spindles are made of a high-carbon steel, ground to size, and carefully balanced before fitting to the head. A taper point is fitted to the right-hand end of the spindle to accommodate small wheels. The contact surfaces of all parts bolted together are planed or milled to insure a rigid unit. The head can be furnished separate, for mounting on a bench. The countershaft may be of a self-oiling type or equipped with Hyatt roller bearings. |
