A refacing tool includes a feed assembly that holds a first set of cutters positioned for refacing the inner shoulder of a pin or box end of a tubular and a second set of cutters positioned for refacing the outer shoulder of the pin or box end. The axial spacing between the first set of cutters and the second set of cutters is fixed and determined by the geometry of the feed assembly. The refacing tool can simultaneously reface the inner shoulder and the outer shoulder, as well as chamfers.

An adjustable collet holder for use with a lathe is provided. The adjustable collet holder may include a set of hold down screws to hold it in place once adjusted. Adjustment may be achieved by adjusting multiple set screws to change both angular and concentricity orientations of a collet receiver relative to a body of the collet holder.

An automatic lathe includes a front main spindle holding a workpiece and a turret including a peripheral surface, the peripheral surface being divided into a plurality of turret surfaces, tools being mounted on the turret surfaces, the turret machining the workpiece with any of the tools selected by turning about a Z axis, wherein at least one turret surface of the turret surfaces of the turret has a distance from the Z axis shorter than that of the other turret surfaces.

There is provided a combined working machine including: a bed in which a front inclined surface which is inclined forward is formed; a first workpiece main spindle device and a second workpiece main spindle device disposed on the front inclined surface of the bed to be opposite to each other and including a main spindle stand configured to rotatably hold a main spindle about an axis and a driving mechanism configured to move the main spindle in an axial direction of the main spindle; a first turret device and a second turret device including a turret configured to attach multiple turret tools disposed above the main spindle on the bed; and a tool main spindle device disposed between the first turret device and the second turret device on the bed and including a main spindle head configured to exchangeably and rotatably hold a main spindle head tool.

A machine tool configured to attach multiple tools to a turret is provided to improve the efficiency of a tool exchanging operation and, thus, also the production efficiency. A control device determines whether an expired tool, which is a tool needs to be exchanged, is present among the tools held by the turret. The control device sets a tool exchanging position, which is a position within the movable range of a head section and is a position where the expired tool is exchanged with a new tool. If the control device determines that an expired tool is present, the control device causes a head section driving device to move the head and rotate the turret to position the expired tool at the tool exchanging position.

A refacing tool includes a feed assembly that holds a first set of cutters positioned for refacing the inner shoulder of a pin or box end of a tubular and a second set of cutters positioned for refacing the outer shoulder of the pin or box end. The axial spacing between the first set of cutters and the second set of cutters is fixed and determined by the geometry of the feed assembly. The refacing tool can simultaneously reface the inner shoulder and the outer shoulder, as well as chamfers.

A tapping head configured to hold and drive different size taps with a slip joint that introduces a small amount of play bet ween the tap head and the tap to compensate for excessive lead that may damage the tap or the workpiece. The tapping head includes a base, a drive coupler, a drive sleeve, a driver, a clutch pack, a pressure ring, a clutch cover, a drive cover and a lock nut. The driver and drive sleeve are longitudinally coupled by splines that form a slip joint. The clutch pact includes discs that against the inside surface of the base and lower surface of the pressure ring. Mounted on the lower surface of the pressure ring are a plurality of clutch springs that force the pressure ring upward against the clutch pack. Disposed between the drive couple and the driver are thrust springs that exert downward forces on the driver. The clutch cover includes internal threads configured to attach to external threads formed on the base. By tightening the clutch cover on the base, the force exerted by the thrust springs on the pressure ring can be adjusted to change the amount of frictional forces exerted by the clutch pack.

A refacing tool includes a feed assembly that holds a first set of cutters positioned for refacing the inner shoulder of a pin or box end of a tubular and a second set of cutters positioned for refacing the outer shoulder of the pin or box end. The axial spacing between the first set of cutters and the second set of cutters is fixed and determined by the geometry of the feed assembly. The refacing tool can simultaneously reface the inner shoulder and the outer shoulder, as well as chamfers.

In some examples, a moveable member including multiple tools is moveable relative to a fixed member to position a selected tool for performing an operation. A first connector half may be included on the fixed member for connecting to one of a plurality of second connector halves included on the moveable member. Movement of the moveable member to position the selected tool for performing the operation moves a respective second connector half associated with the selected tool into connection with the first connector half. In addition, a respective nozzle assembly may be associated with each tool. The respective nozzle assembly may receive multiple fluids including at least one fluid received through the connection between the connector halves. The nozzle assembly includes an inner nozzle that outputs a gas and an annular outer nozzle that outputs a machining liquid to generate a mixture to direct toward a tool-workpiece interface.
