DESCRIPTION:
We are pleased to offer part #04-08 frames as CNC Steel cut frames.
This procedure eliminates 90% of the machining required, compared to alternative
methods such as flame and plasma cutting. Eliminates hours of machining
time and
tooling costs. Frames are ready for hole drilling, tapping
and final milling steps.
CNC Steel cut frame, blanchard ground for thickness. Bottom pedestal
bridges have been removed in photo.
What is involved with machining the frames? Here is the machining
details for the customer:
The remaining work can be done in a small mill/drill as long as the frame
width can be clamped securely. 1/2" 4 flute end mill works well for
nice finish.
Customer removes bottom pedestals bridges and sizes the final width of main
journals shown in print 282_4FMA.
There is only approx. .05" to remove on slots sides with minimal milling
required. Enough material for customer to size journal slots as desired
for fit with main axle box.
Approximate time to set-up and finish journal slots with manual machining
= 4-6 hours average
Customer machines the rear of frame for the left and right sides shown in
print 282_4FMA. Use 1/2" rougher and finish out with 1/2" 4 flute end
mill.
Approximate time for milling right and left sides using manual machining
= 6-8 hours
Customer Drills and taps all holes.
Approximate time to set up and finish drilling and tapping = 4-6 hours average
File sharp edges and deburr. 1-3 hours
PRICE: $1600.00 PAIR w/blanchard grinding
