Cutting tool and method for cutting openings in a body
A device is arranged to be able to provide openings in a body. The device comprises a cutting head having a front and a rear. The cutting head is provided with a cutting device; a power transmission body arranged to be able to transmit power from a driving means to the cutting device; a drive unit holder, wherein the drive unit holder is adapted to be able to be arranged at a distance (A3) from the rear of the cutting head; at least one connecting body having a first and a second end portion, wherein the connecting body connects the cutting head to the drive unit holder; and a support arranged to be able to rotatably hold the device on a body.
Apparatus for machining, particularly for cutting a tubular or round section body
An apparatus (100) for machining a tubular or round-bar type piece, wherein the apparatus comprises a frame element (102), a machining unit (104), as well as a threaded shaft (110), which is fitted to the frame element in a rotatable and axially immobile fashion and has a first section 110a) provided with a right-handed thread and a second section (110b) with a left-handed thread. The first section is provided with at least one first support element (106a) and the second section is provided with at least one second support element (106b), the mutual distance between the support elements being adjustable in response to rotating the threaded shaft, such that the support elements, for example wheels, are adapted to touch a workpiece and to support and guide the apparatus (100) in the process of machining the piece. At least one of the support elements, such as wheels (106a, 106b), is adapted to be capable of rotating relative to its axis in response to moving the apparatus along the surface of a workpiece.
Tool and method for scarfing a rotor blade segment
Tools and methods are provided for scarfing rotor blade segments. A rotor blade segment includes a pressure side and a suction side. A tool includes a first guide configured for mounting on one of the pressure side or the suction side, the first guide including a first curved rail and a second curved rail spaced from the first curved rail. The tool further includes a second guide movably coupled to the first guide at a scarf angle, the second guide including a guide rail extending between and movable along the first curved rail and the second curved rail. The tool further includes a cutting device movably coupled to the second guide, the cutting device movable along the guide rail and operable to remove material from the one of the pressure side or the suction side.
Chamfering machine for providing optimal operation condition during operation of cutting surface of circular material and surface cutting method
Disclosed is a chamfering machine which enables a smooth cutting operation by allowing a workpiece to be fixed to a position corresponding to an optimal cutting condition. The chamfering machine comprises a cutting position groove, which is formed in the bottom surface of an upper guide, and into which a part of the outer circumferential surface of a workpiece is inserted, wherein the central part of the cutting position groove is formed to correspond to the cutting end of a chamfering cutter. The machining method is configured such that the chamfering cutter enters perpendicular to a centerline direction of a circular material and, after entering while cutting, to a point where the cutting end of a cutting tip is in line with the centerline, rotates a tubular material or revolves the chamfering cutter around the tubular material and thus can cut the surface of the circular material.
Internal jacket leg cutter and method
An internal caisson/jacket leg cutter and method provides a frame having upper and lower end portions. The upper end portion has rigging that enables the frame to be lifted. Extensible arms are movably supported upon the frame. The arms extend and retract along generally radially extending lines. Extension of the arms enables them to contact the inside surface of a caisson/jacket leg and thus center and anchor the frame within the caisson/jacket leg interior. A cutting mechanism at the lower end portion of the frame includes one or more rotary cutters or milling devices that cut the caisson/jacket leg wall as these cutters traverse an arc shaped path, tracking the caisson/jacket leg wall.
Beveling / chamfering tool—router head for metal
The present invention provides a beveling tool including: a body with a shaft hole formed through the center; a plurality of cutter blades arranged at predetermined distances on the circumferential surface of the body, each having a radial primary blade with a radial primary relief angle ranging from about 10 to about 20 degrees and a radial secondary blade with a radial secondary relief angle ranging from about 25 to about 35 degrees (or about 35 to about 45 degrees); discharge grooves formed longitudinally between the cutter blades to discharge chips produced in beveling; and a shank inserted in the shaft hole of the body, in which the body and the shank are connected by brazing. With the beveling tool of the present invention, it is possible to smoothly discharge chips produced in beveling and to prevent damage to the cutter blades.
