The increase in efficiency of milling of small-sized grooves of shaped form in hard-to-reach places of molds for rubber- technical products

Abstract

This article discusses the complexity of machining small grooves and as an option for engraving on hardto- reach surfaces of parts where it is necessary to use extensions for a cutting tool. The aim of the work is to increase the efficiency of milling small- sized shaped grooves on molds for rubber products using a special conductor sleeve, which allows to reduce runout on the long overhang of the cutting tool and to obtain the necessary geometry and surface cleanliness of the venting grooves. The goal is achieved through the use of a specially designed conductor device with a hydrostatic bearing.
