RC 30 Manual Machines

The manual machine is operated by placing the workpiece into the chuck jaws. Depending upon the shape of the workpiece it is loaded radially or axially. The operator closes the chuck by a hand wheel which quickly and securely actuates the self centering chuck jaws. A second hand wheel is used to provide feed into the threading head by a rack and gear device.  The head opens by either a stop inside of the head, or a yoke triggered at the termination point of the forward feed whereupon the handwheel is reversed to move the slide to the home position.  The chucking handwheel is turned in the unclamping direction, permitting removal of the threaded part, and start of a new cycle.
