Question

Determine the tranfomation ratio (TR) of the gear train connecting the the spindle and the lead screw of 4TPI required to cut 1.0mm pitch screw threads in a centre lathe.

Open in App
Solution

Transformation ration = train value
= pitch of job threads/pitch of lead screw threads
=1.0mm(1/4inch)=(1.0×4)/(127/5)
=1×4×5/127=20/127. (The term 127/5 is used for converting inches into mm).
