A universal horizontal milling machine differs from a plain horizontal milling machine in that it has
A knee
A table swivel
More power
No arbor support
B
The spindle of a horizontal milling machine is on the
Base
Column
Knee
Saddle
B
On a horizontal milling machine, the table and saddle are supported by the
Base
Column
Knee
Overarm
C
A vertical milling attachment is bolted directly to the milling machine’s
Arbor
Base
Column
Knee
C
The purpose of a vertical milling attachment is to enable you to mount cutters
Directly to the spindle
In a vertical position
On a stub arbor
All of the above
B
A milling machines spindle speed is always expressed in
in/min
mph
rpm
sfpm
C
Cutter speed is the rate at which a particular tooth
Makes a cut 0.01 deep and 1 in. long
Passes over the workpiece surface
Rotates in the spindle
Will cease to cut material
B
In order to compute spindle speed, you must have the
Conversion of feet to inches
Cutter dia
Cutter speed
All of the above
D
Round shafts to be milled are usually mounted in a
Adapter
Swivel base vise
Universal vise
V-block
D
The graduations on the swivel base of a milling machine vise allow you to
Accurately align the workpiece at any angle
Hold the work more securely
Mount the vise quickly
Set a precise depth of cut
A
A slab milling cutter is designed to make ___ cuts
Angular
Heavy
Light
Narrow
B
A right hand helix means that the
Cutter cannot make a left hand cut
Cutter rotation is clockwise
Cutter rotation is counterclockwise
Cutter teeth spiral to the right
D
A left hand cut means the
Cutter has a left hand helix
Cutter has a right hand helix
Feed is from left to right
Feed is from right to left
C
A Style B arbor has a
Bearing sleeve
Knurled end
Pilot
V-notch
A
A Style B arbor is held in the spindle with a
Clamp
Collet
Drawbar
Strap
C
You should never tighten the arbor nut unless the arbor support is in position because
The arbor can be sprung
The arbor can lock the column
The arbor nut cant be tightened without the support
The overarm can be forced out of line
A
According to the formula rpm=sfpmx4 what is the spindle speed in rpm if the cutter speed is 70sfpm and dia is 3”
52.5
70
93.33
210
C
Which of the following is not a factor in making a rough cut efficiently?
Depth of cut
Length of workpiece
Machine table feed rate
Spindle speed
B
If you stop the automatic feed before a cut is finished, always
Engage the rapid reverse
Loosen the arbor nut
Raise the table
Stop the cutter rotation
D
In order to increase surface quality on a finish slab milling cut, lower the feed rate and
Change the cutter
Lower the spindle speed
Maintain the spindle speed
Raise the spindle speed
C
The first machining step in milling a T-slot is to mill
A 45 degree angle in the groove
A chamfer at the top of the slot
A slot or groove in the workpiece
The T in the slot
C
In a horizontal setup, what kind of cutter is used to mill the vertical slot?
End mill
Face mill
Shell end mill
Side mill
D
To align the cutter exactly over the top of the intended slot, you must subtract half the cutter width from the
Distance across the end of the workpiece
Distance between the slot and the end of the workpiece
Distance between the slots centerline and the workpiece edge
Width of the workpiece
C
You can fit a T-slot cutter into the horizontal spindle by using a
Adapter
Chuck
Clamp
Live center
