Metal filing is the essence and purpose of the filing operation. Sawing metal. Manual processing of metal. Plumbing What moves does the filing operation consist of

Filing is the removal of a layer from the surface of the workpiece by means of a file.

The files are cutting tool in the form of hardened steel bars with a notch on the surface. Material U13, U13A, as well as chromium ball bearing steel ШХ15.

They have various shapes - flat, square, trihedral, semicircular, round, rhombic, hacksaw. With a different number of notches per 1 running cm of the working part (bastard, personal and velvet).

Three types: ordinary, needle files and rasps, diamond files and needle files.

Files are:

    with a single notch can remove wide chips, they are used when filing soft metals, as well as non-metals.

    with double or cross cut, for steel, cast iron, etc. hard materials. In these files, the lower, deep notch, called the main one, is first cut, and on top of it, the upper, shallow one, called the auxiliary, which cuts the main notch into teeth.

the cross-cut cuts the chips, making it easier to work.

    The arc cut has large tooth gaps and an arc shape for high performance and good quality.

    Rasp notch - teeth in a checkerboard pattern. For soft metals and non-metals.

Choice of files:

For coarse filing up to 0.5 mm, apply bastard files that allow you to remove a metal layer of 0.08-0.15 mm in one move.

Personal– for a cleaner finish by 0.15 mm. Remove 0.05-0.08 mm in one move. 7-8 cells of purity are achieved.

With velvet trim- the most fine finishing, grinding with an accuracy of 0.01-0.05 mm. Remove 0.01-0.03 mm. Roughness 9-12 cells of purity.

Chabers - steel strips or rods with working edges. There are flat, trihedral, shaped with handles, with sharply sharpened working surfaces.

Requirements. A sharp, even shank, a handle with a ring, without cracks, when struck on the anvil, it makes a clear sound.

The handle is first drilled, then burned with the shank of an old file and clogged by hitting the head of the handle on the workbench.

When filing soft and viscous metals, rub with chalk, aluminum - with stearin. Protect them from moisture and oil, so do not wipe with your hand. Periodically clean from chips with steel brushes.

Marriage. The unevenness of the surface and blockages of the edges, the excess was removed or not filmed.

Security. You can injure your hand with a shank if the handle is faulty, or damage the fingers of your left hand when you reverse. Do not clean files from chips with bare hands, blow them off or remove them. compressed air, you can damage your hands and eyes. It is better to work with a headdress. shavings from the hair are difficult to remove.

drilling.

drilling The process of making holes in a cutting material with a cutting tool is called a drill.

Reaming- increasing the diameter of the existing hole.

Purity of processing– 1-3 roughness classes.

Applies to obtain irresponsible holes, a low degree of accuracy and a low roughness class, for example, for mounting bolts, rivets, studs, threading, reaming, and countersinking.

twist drill- a two-tooth cutting tool, consisting of 2 main parts: working and shank. Working part The drill consists of a cylindrical (guide) and a cutting part. On the cylindrical part there are two helical grooves located one against the other. Their purpose is to remove chips.

To reduce friction, the drill has a reverse taper of 0.1 mm for every 100 mm of length.

Tooth- this is the protruding part of the drill having cutting edges.

The angle between the cutting edges has a significant effect. With its increase, the strength of the drill increases, but the feed force increases. With a decrease in the angle, the cutting becomes easier, but the cutting part is weakened. The angle value is selected depending on the hardness of the material.

Steel and cast iron……………………………………….116-118 about

Hardened steel, red copper……………………125

Brass and bronze, aluminum………………….…….130-140

Silumin……………………………………………...90-100

ebonite………………………………………………...85-90

marble………………………………………………..80

plastics………………………………………..…50-60

Shanks

a drill up to 10 mm is cylindrical (usually) and is mounted in a chuck. The shank has a driver for additional transmission of torque.

Larger diameter drills have a tapered shank. At the end there is a foot that does not allow the drill to turn in the spindle and serves as a stop when the drill is knocked out of the socket. Dimensions 0,1,2,3,4,5,6 with different sizes cones

Manufactured - U10, U12A, chromium 9X, chromium-silicon 9XC, high-speed P9, P18, metal-ceramic alloys of grades VK6, VK8 and T15K6, with bodies made of steel grades R9.9XS and 40X.

Drills with carbide inserts are used for cast iron, hardened steel, plastics, glass, marble.

There are drills with holes for supplying coolant to the cutting edges of the drill.

When drilling, a dull drill will heat up very quickly, so much so that the steel will temper and the drill will become unusable. Therefore, the drills are cooled.

Steel………………………………….soap emulsion or mixture of mineral and fat is small.

Cast iron………………………………….soap emulsion or dry

Copper…………………………………..soap emulsion or rapeseed oil

Aluminum…………………………….soapy emulsion or dry

Duralumin………………………..soap emulsion, kerosene with castor or rapeseed oil

Silumin………………………………soap emulsion or a mixture of alcohol and turpentine.

Drill wear is detected by a sharp creaking sound.

Sharpening is carried out with cooling with a water-soda solution. Sharpen the drill as follows: lightly pressing the cutting edge against the surface abrasive wheel so that the cutting part takes a horizontal position, adjoining the back surface to the circle. With a smooth movement of the right hand, without taking the drill away from the circle, turn the drill around its axis, observing the correct inclination, sharpen the back surface, while making sure that the cutting edges are straight, have the same length and are sharpened at the same angles.

Drills with cutting edges of different lengths or with different angles of their inclination will drill holes larger than their diameter.

They drill with hand, electric, pneumatic drills and El. machines.

Safety measures for hand drills :

    To work in rubber gloves on a rubber mat.

    Check wire;

    The brushes must be well ground and do not spark during normal operation.

Safety measures for drilling machines:

    Work in overalls with a headgear, fasten the straps and sleeves (hanging parts of clothing and hair can be caught by a spindle or drill)

    Do not operate the machine with gloves on.

    Check grounding

    Check for a fence

    Check in idle rotation, axial movement of the spindle and work feed mechanism, fixing the table

    Firmly fix the parts and do not hold them with your hands during processing;

    Conical drills are mounted directly in the conical bore of the spindle or through adapter conical bushings. They are removed with a wedge through a slot.

    Cylindrical in chucks

    Do not leave the key in the drill chuck after changing the drill;

    Do not take hold of the rotary drill and spindle;

    Do not remove the broken drill by hand;

    Do not press hard on the feed lever when drilling through workpieces, especially with small diameter drills.

    Put a wooden lining on the table under the spindle when changing the drill;

    Do not transfer items through a running machine;

    Do not lean on the machine while it is in operation.

    Do not remove chips from the holes with your fingers and do not blow them off. This should be done with a pen or brush, and only after stopping the machine.

    Be sure to stop the machine when changing the drill, cleaning or maintenance.

Sawing metal. Metal processing with a file.

What is metal filing?

Filing is the process of surface treatment by hand using files. A file is a tool with a large number of notches or cuts that form very fine teeth, which serve to remove chips during the forward movement of the file (Fig. 1).

Rice. 1. File:

1 - nose; 2 - face (wide and narrow); 3 - rib; 4 - heel; 5 - tail; 6 - handle.

File names.

Files can be divided into regular files, needle files, rasps and machine files. Files are produced with single-row and double-row notches. By the size of the notch pitch, files with a large pitch are called bastard files, with a medium pitch - personal, with a small pitch - velvet.

File shapes.

The shape of the files are: flat, blunt-nosed and sharp-nosed with a smooth or knurled edge, semicircular, square trihedral and round (Fig. 2).

Rice. 2. Forms of files:

a - flat; b - semicircular; c - square; g - trihedral; d - round; e - needle file.

In boiler production, filing is used in rare cases:

- for small handicraft work;

- for particularly careful fitting of parts.

Since the filing operation is very expensive and inefficient.

File storage.

Files should be stored in toolbox, laid out in one row, with gaps between them, protect them from dirt, oil, water and especially emery dust. After work, the files must be cleaned with steel brushes from dirt and metal particles.

How to put a handle on a file?!

The files have wooden handles with a metal ring on the neck. To avoid the appearance of a crack, the nozzle of the handle must be done carefully. The tail of the file is gradually inserted into a small hole drilled at the end of the neck of the handle with a rotational movement. The pointed edges of the tail of the file ream the hole. At the same time, the head of the handle is tapped on the workbench. After some deepening, the handle is removed and the tail of the file is cleaned from wood chips. Then the operation is repeated until the handle fits snugly to the bottom edges of the file. Sometimes, instead of reaming, they use burning a hole in the handle with a thin steel rod heated red-hot.

Sawing technique.

The success and accuracy of filing depends on the correct pressure on the file and keeping the file parallel to the surface being filed while working.

Filing occurs faster if the pace of movements is insignificant, and the pressure on the file is large. When filing wide surfaces, the work is easier and more correct, since the plane itself is a good guide.

Types of filing metal

Filing surfaces is a complex labor-intensive process. The most common defect in filing surfaces is non-flatness. Working with a file in one direction, it is difficult to get a correct and clean surface. Therefore, the direction of movement of the file, and consequently, the position of strokes (traces of the file) on the surface to be treated must change, i.e., alternately from corner to corner.

First, filing is performed from left to right at an angle of 30 - 40 ° to the tvickob axis, then, without interrupting work, with a straight stroke and finish filing with an oblique stroke at the same angle, but from right to left. Such a change in the direction of movement of the file provides the necessary flatness and surface roughness.

Control of sawn surface. To control sawn surfaces, straightedges, calipers, squares and calibration plates are used. The calibration ruler is selected depending on the length of the surface to be checked, i.e., the length of the calibration ruler must overlap the surface to be tested.

Checking the quality of filing the surface with a straightedge is carried out in the light. To do this, the part is released from the vice and raised to eye level; take a ruler right hand behind the middle and apply the edge of the straightedge perpendicular to the surface to be checked.

To check the surface in all directions, first place the ruler along long side in two or three, then along the short one - also in two or three places, and, finally, along one and the other diagonals. If the gap between the ruler and the surface being checked is narrow and uniform, then the plane has been processed satisfactorily.

To avoid wear, the ruler should not be moved over the surface, each time it is taken away from the surface to be checked and rearranged to the desired position.

In cases where the surface must be filed with particular care, the accuracy of filing is checked using a paint test plate. In this case, on work surface a thin uniform layer of paint (blue, soot or minium diluted in oil) is applied to the surface plate using a swab (folded cloth). Then the surface plate is applied to the surface to be checked (if the part is bulky), several circular movements are made, after which the plate is removed. On insufficiently accurately processed (protruding) places, paint remains. These places are filed additionally until a surface with uniform spots of paint over the entire surface is obtained.

The parallelism of two surfaces can be checked with a caliper.

Filing of external flat surfaces begins with checking the machining allowance, which could ensure the manufacture of the part in accordance with the drawing.

When filing flat surfaces, a flat file is used - bastard and personal. First, one wide surface is filed (it is the base, i.e., the initial surface for further processing), then the second parallel to the first, etc. They strive to ensure that the filed surface is always in horizontal position. Filing is carried out with cross strokes. The parallelism of the sides is checked with a caliper.

The quality of filing the surface is checked with a straightedge in various positions (along, across, diagonally).

Below is the sequence of filing the surfaces of steel tiles with an accuracy of 0.5 mm.

First, the wide surfaces of the tile are sawn, for which it is necessary:
– clamp the tile in a vise with surface A upwards and so that the surface to be treated protrudes above the vise jaws by no more than 4-6 mm. - file surface A with a flat bastard file;
- file surface A with a flat personal file and check the straightness of the surface with a straight edge;
- install the tile in a vice and clamp the surface B up;
- file surface B with a flat bastard file;
- file surface B with a flat personal file and check the straightness of the surface with a ruler, and the parallelism of surfaces A and B with a caliper.

Having finished processing wide surfaces, they proceed to filing narrow tile surfaces, for which it is necessary:
- put on the jaws of the vise, the muffs and clamp the tile in the vise with the surface up;
- file the surface with a flat bastard file;
- file the surface with a flat personal file, check the straightness of the surface with a ruler, and the perpendicularity of the sawn surface to surface A with a square;

- file the surface with a flat bastard file and then with a personal file, check the straightness of the treated surface with a straightedge, perpendicularity to surface A with a square and parallelism of the surface with a caliper;
- clamp the tile with the surface up in a vice;
- file the surface with a flat bastard file along a square;
- file the surface with a flat personal file and check its perpendicularity to surface A and the surface along the square;
- clamp the tile with the surface up in a vice;
- file the surface with a flat bastard file and check with a square its perpendicularity, first to surface A, and then to the surface; - file the surface with a flat personal file and check with a square its perpendicularity to other surfaces;
remove burrs from all edges of the tile; finally check all dimensions and quality of tile processing using a ruler, square, caliper.

Rice. 5. Sawing a square: a - blank, b - fixing the square blank, c, d - checking the quality of filing

Lekalnye rulers are used to check the planes in the ways "to the light" and "to the paint". When checking the straightness “in the light”, a curved ruler is applied to the controlled surface and, by the size of the light gap, it is determined in which places there are irregularities.

To check the straightness using the “on the paint” method, apply to the controlled surface thin layer azure or soot diluted in mineral oil, then apply a ruler and lightly rub it against the controlled surface, as a result of which the paint is removed in places of large protrusions.

Sawing square surfaces located at right angles is associated with fitting inner corner and is associated with some difficulties. One of the surfaces is selected as the base one (usually a large one is taken), it is sawn clean, and then the second surface is processed at a right angle to the base one.

The correctness of filing the second surface is checked with a calibration square, one shelf of which is applied to the base surface (Fig. 157, d, c).

The filing of surfaces along the inner right angle is carried out so that the edge of the file, on which there is no notch, is facing the second surface.

Below is the processing of surfaces mated at an angle of 90 ° - the sequence of manufacturing an angle 90e (Fig. 157, e); for this you need:
- fix the square blank in a vice in a wooden bar (Fig. 157, 6);
- file consistently wide surfaces, first with a flat bastard file, and then with a flat personal file;
- check the quality of filing with a straightedge, the parallelism of the surfaces - with a caliper, and the thickness - with a caliper;
- replace wooden block with muffs, clamp the square with sawn-off surfaces and file successively the edges of the square at an angle of 90 °. To ensure machining accuracy, the outer rib should be machined first to obtain right angle between this edge and wide surfaces 1 and 2 of the square. Then, in the same sequence, process the edge, checking it with a square against the edge;
- at the top of the inner corner, drill a hole with a diameter of 3 mm, and then make a slot to it with a width of 1 mm with a hacksaw to exit the tool and prevent cracks during hardening;
– filing successively internal edges 5 and 6 at an angle of 90°, while maintaining the parallelism of edge 5 with edge 3 and edge 6 with edge 8, ensuring that the inner angle between the edges and the outer angle between the edges are straight;
- file ends 4 and 7 in sequence, maintaining the dimensions according to the drawing (125 and 80 mm); remove burrs from the ribs; polish sandpaper all edges and surfaces of the square; polished surfaces and ribs should be free of scratches and scratches.

The given procedure for processing the square ensures the flatness of each surface and the perpendicularity of the ribs to each other and with respect to the surfaces.

Sawing the end of the rod into a square begins with filing the edge, the size is checked with a caliper. Then the edge is filed. The edge is filed at an angle of 90 ° to the edges. The edge is filed in size to the edge /

Sawing of cylindrical blanks. The cylindrical rod is first sawn into a square (the size of its sides should include an allowance for subsequent processing). Then the corners of the square are filed and an octahedron III is obtained, from which a hexagon IV is obtained by filing; in the process of further processing, a cylindrical rod of the required diameter is obtained. A layer of metal to obtain four and eight faces is removed with a bastard file, and an eight- and sixteen-sided file is filed with a personal file. Processing control” is performed with a caliper in several places.

Sawing concave and convex (curvilinear) surfaces. Many machine parts have a convex and concave shape. When filing and sawing curved surfaces, the most rational way to remove excess metal is chosen.

In one case, preliminary sawing with a hacksaw is required, in another - drilling, in the third - cutting, etc. Too much sawing allowance leads to a lot of time spent on the task, and leaving too little allowance often leads to part defects.

Sawing concave surfaces. First, the necessary contour of the part is marked on the workpiece. Most of the metal in this case can be removed by cutting with a hacksaw, giving the hollow in the workpiece the shape of a triangle, or by drilling (upper right). Then, the edges are filed with a file and the protrusions are cut off with a semicircular or round bastard file to the applied risk. The cross-sectional profile of a round or semicircular file is chosen so that its radius is less than the radius of the sawn surface.

Short of about 0.3 - 0.5 mm to the risk, the bastard file is replaced with a personal one. The correctness of the sawing shape is checked according to the “clearance” template, and the perpendicularity of the sawn surface to the end of the workpiece is checked with a square.

Filing of convex surfaces (filing the toe of a metalworker's hammer) is shown in fig. 160, 6. After marking with a hacksaw, the corners of the workpiece are cut off and it takes on a pyramid-shaped shape. Then, with the help of a bastard file, a layer of metal is removed, not reaching the risk by 0.8-1.0 mm, after which the remaining layer of metal is finally carefully removed with a personal file along the risk.

Dowel manufacturing. A segmented key is made by performing the following operations:
- measure on a steel strip and cut off with a hacksaw the required length of the blank for the key according to the drawing;
- plane A is filed clean, then surfaces 7 and 2 are marked and filed, a check for perpendicularity is performed on a square; - mark surfaces 3 and 4 according to the drawing (length, width, curvature radii);
- filing surfaces 3 and 4, checking the size with a caliper, and the perpendicularity of the surfaces with a square;
- adjust the key by filing to the corresponding groove; the key must fit into the groove;
- without pressure, easy and sit tight, without pitching;
- filing surface B in height, maintaining a given size of 16 mm.

Filing thin plates with conventional methods is impractical, since during the working stroke of the file, the plate bends and “blockages” occur. It is not recommended for filing thin plates to clamp them between two wooden bars (slats), since in this case the notch of the file is quickly clogged with wood and metal shavings and it has to be cleaned frequently.

In order to increase labor productivity when filing thin plates, it is advisable to glue 3-10 such plates into packages. The techniques for filing ribs in the package are the same as for filing tiles with wide ribs.

You can do without riveting thin parts, and use devices called basting. Such devices include sliding frames, plane-parallel bastings, copier devices (jigs), etc.

Rice. 10. Filing within the framework

Rice. 11. Filing in universal basting

Rice. 12. Filing in plane-parallel basting

Rice. 13. Filing on a copier

Sawing within. The simplest device is a metal frame, front side which is carefully machined and hardened to a high hardness. The plate to be machined is placed at risk in the frame and clamped with bolts. Then the frame is clamped in a vice and the processing is carried out until the file touches the upper plane of the frame. Since this plane of the frame is machined with great precision, the sawn plane does not require additional verification with a ruler.

Universal basting (parallels) consists of two bars of rectangular section, fastened together by two guide bars. One of the bars is rigidly connected to the guide bars, and the other can move along these bars parallel to the fixed bar.

First, a sliding frame is installed in a bench vice, and then a workpiece. After aligning the marking line with the upper plane of the frame, the workpiece, together with the slats, is clamped in a vice and filing is performed.

Processing in plane-parallel basting. The most common are plane-parallel bastings, which have precisely machined planes and ledges, which make it possible to process planes located at right angles without controlling the square during filing. There are several threaded holes on the reference plane of the basting. Using screws, guide rulers or a square can be attached to this plane, which make it possible to file parts with a given angle.

The plate being processed is placed between the movable vise jaw and the basting plane, resting its base edge against the protrusion. With light blows of the hammer on the plate, the basting is placed in a vice so that it lies with side 3 on the fixed vise jaw, it is brought to the risk until it coincides with the upper surface of the basting, after which the basting with the plate is finally clamped in a vice and filing is performed. With the help of a basting, it is possible to file profile plates with convex and concave sections.

Sawing along a copier (jig) The most productive is filing workpieces with a curvilinear profile along a copier. A copier (jig) is a fixture, the working surfaces of which are machined according to the contour of the workpiece with an accuracy of 0.05 to 0.1 mm, hardened and ground.

The workpiece to be filed is inserted into the copier and clamped together with it in a vice. After that, the protruding part of the workpiece is sawn off to the level of the working surfaces of the conductor. When manufacturing a large number of identical parts from thin sheet material several workpieces can be fixed in the jig at the same time.

Surface finishing. The choice of finishing method and the sequence of transitions depend on the material being processed and the requirements for surface quality, its condition, design, part dimensions and allowance (0.05-0.3 mm).

Manual cleaning with sandpaper. In those cases where high precision is required, the surfaces after filing are subjected to final finishing velvet files, linen or paper sandpaper and abrasive stones.

When finishing surfaces, wooden blocks are used with sandpaper glued to them. In some cases, a strip of skin is applied to a flat file, holding the ends with your hand while working. To finish curved surfaces, the skin is wrapped on a mandrel in several layers. Stripping is carried out first with coarse skins, then with thinner ones. Manual cleaning is an inefficient operation.

In the practice of metalwork processing, the following types of filing are most common: filing flat conjugated parallel and perpendicular surfaces of parts; filing curved surfaces; filing of cylindrical and conical parts with their fitting in place.

Filing begins, as a rule, with checking the processing allowance, which could ensure the manufacture of the part according to the dimensions indicated on the drawing. After checking the dimensions of the workpiece, the bases are determined, that is, the surface from which the dimensions of the part and the relative position of its surface should be maintained.

The size of the file is chosen so that it is at least 150 mm longer than the sawn surface. If the surface cleanliness class is not indicated on the drawing, filing is done only with a bastard file. If necessary, obtain cleaner and smooth surfaces filing is finished with a personal file.

Labor productivity during filing depends on the sequence of transitions, the correct use of the file, as well as on the devices used for filing the part and guiding the file.

Sawing flat surfaces. This type of filing is one of the most difficult plumbing operations. If a locksmith learns how to properly file straight surfaces, then he can easily file any other surface. To obtain a correctly filed straight surface, all attention must be focused on ensuring that the file moves in a straight line. Sawing should be done with a cross stroke (from corner to corner) at an angle of 35-40 ° to the sides of the vise. When filing diagonally, the file should not go out to the corners of the workpiece, as this reduces the area of ​​\u200b\u200bsupport for the file and it easily collapses; you need to change the direction of the file more often.

Consider the sequence of transitions when filing wide planes - the sides of a plane-parallel rectangular tiles(Fig. 14).

Before filing, the part is clamped in a vice so that the surface to be treated is horizontal and protrudes 5-8 mm above the vise jaws. Processing begins with a wide plane (Fig. 14, a), taken as the main measuring base. Rough filing is carried out with a flat bastard file, and finishing - with a flat personal file. Having finished filing the plane, the part is removed. The correctness of the plane is checked with a ruler, applying it along, across and diagonally to the treated surface. Then they proceed to filing the second wide plane in the same way. In this case, the parallelism of the planes is controlled by a caliper. Having installed the muffs on a vice, they file one of the narrow planes (rib 3) and check it with a ruler and a square from the plane (Fig. 14, b). Then, the ribs are filed and checked from the base plane of the first rib (Fig. 14, c).

Filing narrow planes on thin parts presents significant difficulties.

Rice. 14. The sequence of filing tiles

(However, it is possible to do without riveting thin Parts, using devices called bastings when filing them. Such devices include: filing prisms, sliding frames, plane-parallel bastings, copier devices (jigs), etc. The use of bastings facilitates accurate (installation and fixing of parts, which allows the mechanic to work with more confidence, without fear of spoiling the work surface or not getting right size. Working parts of fixtures (bastings) (precisely machined, hardened and ground.

The filing prism consists of a body (Fig. 15, a), on the side surface of which it is rigid (the clamp, square and ruler are fixed. The square or ruler is used for correct installation workpiece, and the clamp - to secure it. Surface A of the prism body serves as a guide for the file. The metal layer of the workpiece, (To be removed, should protrude above plane A of the prism body. The filing prism body is fixed in a metalwork vice in a horizontal position.

In the practice of filing thin parts, basting frames are also used (Fig. 15, b). Sawing (in such a device it eliminates “blockages”, since the part is clamped not on the side of the device, but in the middle, in the armhole. The marked workpiece is inserted into the frame, slightly pressing it with a screw against the inner wall of the frame. the edge of the frame, after which the screws are finally fixed.The frame is clamped in a vice and the narrow surface of the workpiece is sawn to the level of the working edge of the frame.

The sliding frame (sanding basting, or "parallels") serves the same purpose. It consists of two elongated bars of rectangular section Kris. 15, c), interconnected by two guide bars. One of the bars is rigidly connected to the guide bars, and the other can move along these bars parallel to the first bar and, moreover, so that the upper faces of both bars (surface A) remain in the same horizontal plane.

The sliding frame should be installed in the vise in such a way that it rests on the jaws of the vise with two pairs of pins that are pressed into the outer side edges of the bars. The distance between the guide rails must be greater, and between the pins, less than the width of the vise jaws.

Rice. 15. Filing with the help of devices: a-in the filing prism; b-in the outline-frame; in-in sliding parallels-frame "ke; d-in parallel square; b-in a plane-parallel basting

For filing workpieces at a right angle, use a sliding parallel square (Fig. 15, d).

A plane parallel basting is a hardened plate with two L-shaped protrusions. On such a basting, you can saw off four sides (edges) of the workpiece at an angle of 90 °, without controlling the correctness of the angles in the process.

When installing, the basting should lie with a protrusion on a fixed sponge. Then, a thin workpiece to be processed is placed between the movable vise jaw and the basting plane, resting its edge against the protrusion. Slightly holding the vise, with a light tap on the workpiece, the marking risk applied on it is combined with the upper edge of the basting. After that, the workpiece is finally clamped in a vice and sawing begins at an angle of 25-30 ° to the sides of the vise (workpiece). If the work is done with a bastard file, then, not reaching 0.3 mm to the upper surface of the basting, it is put aside and filing with a personal file is continued and work with it until the edge of the workpiece is equal to the upper surface of the basting.

Checking the edge sawn in this way with the help of a curved ruler will show that it is strictly straight: there will be no gap between the edge and the ruler. To file the second edge along the marking risk, the workpiece is rearranged to a new position so that the processed edge lies against the protrusion of the basting, and the risk coincides with the upper surface of the basting. With the help of a plane-parallel basting, it is possible to file straight sections of the workpiece, as well as surfaces located at different angles.

The sides of thin workpieces are sawn off on a bar of solid wood. Small parts can be filed with clamps. Workpieces whose length exceeds the length of the sponges are clamped between two metal corners or wooden blocks during processing.

Filing planes mated at angles.

Processing of external corners is carried out with flat files. Internal corners, depending on their size, can be processed with flat triangular, square, hacksaw and diamond-shaped files. In this case, files with one smooth side are usually used, so that when filing the second mating plane, they do not spoil the previously processed plane with the notched part of the file.

As an example of processing planes conjugated at an angle of 90 °, consider the sequence of transitions when filing a flat bench square:

1. Having fixed a wooden block in a vice and placing a workpiece on it, they saw off wide planes 1 and 2. The work is carried out with a bastard, and finished with a personal file. The filed plane of the square is checked with a ruler, and the parallelism of the sides is checked with a caliper. The thickness is measured with a caliper.

2. Having removed the bar and put on the soft metal muffs on the vise, they start filing the outer edges of the square at an angle of 90 °. First, edge 3 is processed with a longitudinal stroke and a right angle is obtained between the edge and wide planes 1 and 2 of the square, then edge 8 is processed in the same order, checking it with a square relative to edge 3.

3. At the top of the inner corner, a center is punched and a hole with a diameter of 1-3 mm is drilled. Then a cut (cut) of an angle 1 mm thick is made for ease of processing. In the blade of a hacksaw, which makes a cut, you need to grind off the divorce, otherwise the cut will turn out to be wide and uneven. The top of the corner is filed with a file having one side edge of the notch.

4. File the internal ribs at an angle of 90 ° with a longitudinal stroke, while maintaining the parallelism of the sides (ribs 5 and 3 and ribs 6 and 8) and right angles between ribs 5 and b and planes 1 and 2.

5. Ends 4 and 7 are sawn off, maintaining dimensions of 125 and 80 mm and right angles with respect to the wide planes and edges of the square.

6. The planes and edges of the square are ground with fine-grained sandpaper. The polished surface should be free of marks and scratches.

In the manufacture of curved rulers, angular templates, etc., filing of planes conjugated at external and internal acute and obtuse angles is carried out. Ruler blanks are pre-processed on a milling or planer and sawed off from all sides. The control of the processed planes is carried out with a straightedge, the parallelism of the sides is with a caliper, and the ends are with a square.

Rice. 17. Filing of planes conjugated at angles: a and b-gon with an angle of 90 °; in-corner template with an angle of 60°

Sawing a template with an internal angle of 60 ° (Fig. 17, c) is performed in the following sequence: cut off the template blank from the strip; filed cleanly plane A, zatbm ribs 1 and 2; mark the corner and sides according to the given dimensions. Before marking, the surface is covered blue vitriol so that the applied risks are visible, Then the sides are filed and a 60 ° angle is cut out in the template with a hacksaw, not reaching the risks by 1 mm; after that, the sides of the inner corner are filed with a template check.

After filing plane B to the required thickness of the template, they begin to finish the surfaces with personal files.

Sawing curved surfaces. The curved surfaces of machine parts are divided into convex and concave. Usually filing such surfaces is associated with the removal of significant allowances. Therefore, before proceeding with filing, you should mark the workpiece, and then choose the most rational way to remove excess metal: in one case, preliminary sawing with a hacksaw is required, in the other - drilling, in the third - cutting, etc.

Excessively large sawing allowance leads to an increase in the time to complete the task; a small allowance creates a risk of damage to the part.

Convex surfaces are filed with flat files along and across the bulge. On fig. 18a shows the techniques for filing the toe of a metalworking hammer. When moving the file forward along the bulge, the right hand should go down and the toe of the file should go up. Such movements provide a smooth rounding of the surface, without corners, with the necessary strokes directed along the curvature of the surface.

When transversely filing a convex surface, the file is informed, in addition to rectilinear movement, also rotational.

Concave surfaces are filed with round, semicircular and oval files (Fig. 18.6). At the same time, two movements of the file are also combined - rectilinear and rotational, i.e., each movement of the file forward is accompanied by a slight movement of its right hand a / 4 turns to the right or left.

A significant part of the metal when doing this work from a whole piece is often removed by cutting with a hacksaw. Then, with a flat or square file, the edges are sawn, and with a semicircular or round file,< пильником спиливают выступ, приближаясь к разметочной риске (рис. 104,6).

The cross-sectional profile of a semicircular file must be selected in such a way that its radius is less than the radius of the sawn surface.

When filing convex or concave surfaces, rough filing should be done with a bastard file; not reaching approximately 0.3-0.5 mm to the marking line, the bastard file must be replaced with a personal file, after which the filing or sawing of the surface should be continued until fixed size. It is best to check the correctness of the surface shape using a template in the light. The perpendicularity of the surface to the end of the workpiece is checked with a square.

The most productive and accurate way of filing curved surfaces is filing along a copier or jig.

The copier conductor in the general case is a device, the contour of the working surfaces of which, with an accuracy of 0.5 to 0.1 mm, corresponds to the contour of the part processed on this device. Filing in the conductor is carried out without preliminary marking. The working sides of the fixture must be precisely machined, hardened and ground.

On fig. 18.6 shows an example of processing the curved surface of a thin part (plate) in a filing jig. The workpiece to be filed is inserted into the jig and clamped together with it in a vice. Then, the part of the workpiece protruding from the conductor is sawn off to the level of the working surfaces of the conductor. When manufacturing a large number of identical parts from thin sheet material, several blanks are simultaneously fixed in the jig.

Sawing of cylindrical and conical surfaces. Cylindrical rods sometimes have to be filed in order to reduce their diameter. In some cases, a cylindrical part is obtained by filing from a piece of non-cylindrical material (square, hexagon).

Long rod blanks to be stripped large layer metal, clamped in a vice in a horizontal position and filed, swinging the file in a vertical plane and often turning the workpiece. If the workpiece is short and it is necessary to remove a thin layer of metal from it, then it is clamped in a vice in vertical position and file, also swinging the file strongly, but in a horizontal plane. In order not to spoil the vise jaws with a file, you should put them on the rod metal washer or put the file on the vise jaws with an uncut edge.

It is more convenient to file rods with a diameter of less than 12 mm when fixing the workpiece in a hand vise. At the same time, the rod is placed in the groove of a wooden bar, fixed in a bench vise. By turning the hand vise towards the working movement of the file, the cylindrical surface of the workpiece is filed.

To obtain, for example, a neck of a roller with a diameter of 12 mm, it is first cut into a square with a side greater than the diameter of the neck (which must be obtained after processing) by a double allowance. Then, the corners of the square are filed, getting an octahedron, and from the octahedron, removing the corners, a sixteen-sided one is obtained. After that, the method of successive approximation is used to obtain a cylindrical neck of the roller of the required diameter.

A significant layer of metal (until an octahedron is obtained) is removed with a bastard file; after receiving the octahedron, they use a personal file. The correct filing is checked with a caliper or caliper in several places.

Let's consider the filing of conical surfaces using the example of the manufacture of a locksmith's beard. Having cut off a workpiece with a hacksaw or chopped off a workpiece from a steel bar, both ends are sawn off. Then, having measured the length of the working and impact parts on the workpiece, marking risks are applied. After that, a wooden block with a groove is fixed in a metalwork vice, and a workpiece is fixed in a hand vice and, having placed the workpiece in the groove at an angle of 6-10 ° to the surface of the bar, the impact part of the beard is sawn into a cone. In the process of filing, the hand vise must be turned towards the working movement of the file. Then, in a hand vice, the workpiece is fixed with the other end and the working part of the barb is sawn onto the cone. The conical part should be filed, starting from the end of the workpiece and gradually moving to the entire surface of the cone.

After processing the working part of the beard, soft metal caps are put on the jaws of the hand vice and, fixing the workpiece in them with a treated surface, they clean the middle part of the beard with a file. The manufacture of the beard ends after its hardening and tempering by sharpening the butt on a fine-grained grinding wheel. The surface of the working part is polished with an emery cloth.

2.9. Manual and mechanical filing

filing - this is the process of removing the allowance with files, needle files or rasps. It is based on manual or mechanical removal of a thin layer of material from the treated surface. Filing is one of the main and most common operations. It makes it possible to obtain the final dimensions and the required surface roughness of the product.

Sawing can be done with files, needle files or rasps. Files are divided into the following types: general purpose, locksmith for special work, machine, for sharpening tools and for hardness control.

Files are made from tool high carbon steel U12A, U13A, as well as from steel grades R9, R7T, ShKh9, 111X15.

The teeth of a file can be formed by notching, milling, cutting, pulling and turning by rolling. The most common method of notching. The notch of general purpose files is double crossed, while files for special applications are double and single. Thanks to the cross cut on the sawn surface, there are no marks from the movement of the teeth. The notching of the teeth is carried out on the workpieces before they are heat treatment. After notching, the files are hardened to a hardness not lower than HRC 54.

When repairing worn files, before applying the notch, the surface of the files is tempered and polished. All files must be tested.

Depending on the shape, the following types of files are distinguished (Fig. 19): a- locksmith flat blunt; b– round; in- semicircular, G- square; d- trihedral; e- flat pointed; well- hacksaw; h- oval; and- lens; to- rhombic; l- semicircular wide; well- rasps n- for filing machines; about– for soft metals, as well as curved files. The sizes of files are given in tab. 2.

Rice. nineteen. Shapes of locksmith's files

Shapes and sizes of files, mm

According to the size and density of the notches, depending on the number of notches per 10 mm of length, the files are divided into bastard files No. 0 and 1, personal No. 2 and 3 and velvet No. 4 and 5. Bastard No. 0 has the roughest notch. With a length of 100 mm bastard file, the number of notches on a length of 10 mm is 14, while velvet No. 5 has a very fine notch - 56 notches per 10 mm with the same file length (Tables 3–5).

Number of auxiliary cuts per 10 mm file length

Files come with a single and double notch (Fig. 20). A single notch can be inclined to one side, inclined at intervals, wavy, rasped. When filing surfaces of soft metals, files with a single notch are used. A double notch is characterized by the fact that the pitch (the distance between the tops of two adjacent teeth) is not an integer value, which prevents the appearance of grooves on the sawn surface.

Rice. 20. Types of file notches:

a - single with a slope to one side; b - single oblique with intervals; c - wavy; g - rasp; d - double

There are the following types of filing: flat and curved surfaces; corner surfaces; parallel surfaces; complex and shaped surfaces.

The choice of a file depends on the type of material, the type of filing, the size of the layer to be removed and the size of the workpiece. For example, when finishing a cube made of steel with an edge length of 30 mm, you need to use a file with a double cut No. 5 (velvet) 160 mm long.

The shape of the files is chosen depending on the configuration of the processed area. Flat files are used for filing flat, curved convex and outer spherical surfaces; square files - for filing square and rectangular holes; triangular - for processing triangular surfaces, for sharpening saws, as well as for filing flat surfaces located at an acute angle; hacksaw - for filing the edges of sharp corners, as well as for making narrow grooves; rhombic - for processing very complex contours of products; round - for making semicircular and round holes; oval - for filing oval holes; semicircular and lens - for processing curved and concave surfaces.

In table. Figure 6 shows the roughness classes and the corresponding heights of surface microroughnesses obtained with different types of metalworking.

Correct and reliable fastening of the material in a vice or fixture during filing ensures accurate processing of the material, minimal worker effort and labor safety.

To avoid damage to the surfaces of non-metallic materials and products fixed in a vise, pads should be used. Linings made of soft metals (copper, zinc, lead, aluminium, brass), wood, artificial material, felt or rubber are superimposed on the cheeks of the vise. The product or material is inserted between the linings, and then fixed.

The height of the vise when filing should be selected in accordance with the height of the worker. In practice, the installation height of the vise is determined by resting the elbows on the cheeks of the vise (the fist with the vertical position of the hand should reach the chin of the worker standing straight). If the vice is installed below this position, then gaskets are placed, and if the installation height of the vice is high, then the gaskets are removed or a stand or ladder is placed under the locksmith's feet. The person working at the vise should take such a position that the feet are at an angle of 45 ° to each other, and the left leg should be put forward at a distance of 25–30 cm from the axis of the foot right foot. The axis of the left foot in relation to the working axis of the file should be at an angle of about 30 °. This position ensures productive and safe work of the locksmith and reduces his fatigue.

The restoration of the cutting ability of a file after wear is ensured by removing dull teeth and applying a new notch to the file. Restoration is carried out by annealing the file, grinding off the old notch and making a new one (manually or mechanically) followed by hardening. The file can be restored several times, but each time it becomes thinner and more prone to cracks.

Files must be protected from moisture to prevent corrosion; to avoid damage to the cuts, they should not be thrown or placed on other files, tools or metals. The surface of the files is protected from oil or grease, as well as from dust from grinding wheels.

A new file should be used first on one side, and after it has become dull, on the other. Do not use personal and velvet files for filing soft metals (tin, lead, copper, zinc, aluminum, and brass). The filings of these metals clog the grooves of the file notches and make it impossible to process the surfaces of other metals.

The file during work and after work should be cleaned with a steel brush. After finishing work, it is cleaned in a drawer or cabinet.

You should pay special attention to the condition of the handle and its correct attachment to the file (the handle is mounted along the axis of the file). When inserting the handle, do not lift the file up. Files without a handle should not be used. Be especially careful when working with small files. The end of a long file should not be held with your fingers. The material for filing must be fixed correctly and firmly.

The essence of the process of filing metal

Filing is an operation for processing metals and other materials by removing a small layer with files manually or on filing machines.

Filing parts is one of the most common methods of metal processing. With the help of files, a small allowance is removed, that is, they ensure that the part has exact dimensions and a flat surface.

With the help of a file, a mechanic gives the parts the required shape and dimensions, fits the parts to each other, prepares the edges of the parts for welding, and performs other work.

With the help of files, planes, curved surfaces, grooves, grooves, holes of any shape, surfaces located at different angles, etc. are processed. Sawing allowances are left small - from 0.5 to 0.025 mm. The accuracy of filing processing is from 0.2 to 0.05 mm, in some cases up to 0.001 mm.

Manual filing has now been largely replaced by filing special machines but completely manual filing these machines cannot be forced out, since fitting work during assembly and installation of equipment often has to be done manually.

A file is a steel bar of a certain profile and length, on the surface of which there are notches (cuts) that form depressions and sharpened teeth (teeth) that have a wedge shape in cross section. Files are made of steel U10A or U13A (alloyed chromium steel ShKh15 or 13Kh is allowed), after notching they are subjected to heat treatment.

Files are subdivided: by the size of the notch, by the shape of the notch, by the length and shape of the bar, by purpose.

Types and main elements of notches. The notches on the surface of the file form teeth that remove chips from the material being processed. File teeth are obtained on sawing machines using a special chisel, on milling machines- milling cutters grinding machines- special grinding wheels, as well as by rolling, pulling on broaching machines - broaches and gear-cutting machines. Each of these methods incised its own tooth profile. However, regardless of the method of obtaining a notch, each tooth has a back angle a, a sharpening angle, rake angle and cutting angle.

Files with knurled teeth with a negative rake angle (Y from -12 to -15°) and a relatively large clearance angle (a from 35 to 40°) provide sufficient space for accommodating the chips. The resulting taper angle p = 62 (up to 67°) ensures the strength of the tooth.

Files with milled or ground teeth have a positive rake angle T=2 (up to 10°). They have a cutting angle less than 90° and therefore less cutting force. The high cost of milling and grinding limits the use of these files.

For files with drawn teeth, y = -5°, P = 55°, a = 40°, 8 = 95°.

The outstretched tooth has a cavity with a flat bottom. These teeth cut into the metal being processed better, which significantly increases labor productivity. In addition, files with such teeth are more resistant, since the teeth do not become clogged with chips.

The fewer notches per 1 cm of file length, the larger the tooth. There are files with a single, i.e., a simple notch, with a double, or cross, point, i.e., with a rasp, and an arc.

Single cut files can remove wide chips, equal to the length the entire notch. They are used when filing soft metals (brass, zinc, babbitt, lead, aluminum, bronze, copper, etc.) with low cutting resistance, as well as non-metallic materials. In addition, these files are used for sharpening saws, knives, as well as for processing wood and cork. A single notch is applied at an angle X = 25° to the file axis.

Files with a double (i.e., cross) notch are used for filing steel, cast iron and other hard materials with high cutting resistance. In files with a double notch, the lower one is first cut - a deep notch, called the main one, and on top of it - the upper, shallow notch, called the auxiliary one; she cuts the main notch into a large number of individual teeth.

The cross cut cuts the chips more, making the job easier. The main notch is made at an angle 1 X = 25°, and the auxiliary one is made at an angle ω = 45°.

The distance between adjacent teeth of the notch is called the step 5\ The step of the main notch is greater than the step of the auxiliary. As a result, the teeth are located one after another in a straight line, making an angle of 5 ° with the axis of the file, and when it moves, the tooth marks partially overlap each other, therefore, the roughness on the treated surface decreases, the surface is cleaner and smoother.

A rasp (point) notch is obtained by pressing the metal with special trihedral chisels, leaving roomy recesses arranged in a checkerboard pattern, contributing to best accommodation shavings. Rasps work very soft metals and non-metallic materials(leather, rubber, etc.).

The arc notch is obtained by milling. The cut has large tooth gaps and an arc shape for high performance and higher quality processed surfaces. These files are used in the processing of soft metals (copper, duralumin, etc.).
