An apparatus for metal-cutting machining of wear-affected bit-head-proximal end regions of bit holders of road milling machines encompasses: a rotary actuator having an output member rotating around an actuator rotation axis; at least one material-removing tool, rotatable around a tool rotation axis, which is coupled or couplable to the output member so as to rotate together; a positioning arbor, extending along an arbor axis, which is embodied for introduction into a bit receptacle opening of a bit holder and which comprises an abutment segment, located radially remotely from the arbor axis and facing away from the arbor axis in a direction having a radial component, which is embodied for abutment against an inner wall of the bit receptacle opening. A material-removing region, populated with cutting edges, of the material-removing tool is arranged between the positioning arbor and the output member.

Devices and methods are provided for cutting or forming tapered surfaces on the end portions of tube or pipe lengths prior to forming joints in adjoining lengths. A device body includes multiple guide surfaces, each having distinct size and shape to engage with an open end of a one of a multiple of tube of predetermined diameters. In intended use, a powered cutting device is rotated about the end of stationary tube or pipe.

An apparatus and related assembly that may be used for cutting, grinding, and polishing surfaces is disclosed. The apparatus may comprise an extended rail, a saddle, movably mounted on top of the extended rail, a side block connected to the lateral side of the saddle and one or more clamps that may securely fasten a machining surface to the extended rail. The apparatus may further comprise a coolant pipe for ejecting coolant onto the machining surface, an index plate attached to the side block onto which a power tool may be mounted using an angled connector that allows the power tool to be fixed onto the index plate at a plurality of angles. Herein, the power tool may comprise of a motor and a set of replaceable blades rotatably connected to the motor for performing operations including cutting, grinding, or polishing of the machining surface.

A system includes an abrasion assembly containing one or more abrasion pads configured to clean a faying surface of multiple nutplates, and a shaft attached to at least one of the abrasion pads and configured to rotate some or all of the abrasion pads during cleaning, wherein cleaning includes abrading the faying surfaces with the abrasion pads. The system also includes a base configured to attach to a pressure applicator, and a pressure applicator configured to attach to the base, hold the nutplates such that the faying surface of each nutplate is capable of contacting one of the abrasion pads, and apply pressure to the nutplates such that each of the nutplates contact one of the abrasion pads during the cleaning. Furthermore, the abrasion assembly is configured to rotate the abrasion pads within at least one of the base and the pressure applicator during cleaning.

A rail grinding machine for grinding rails of a track has a machine frame, on which guide rollers for manual movement of the rail grinding machine in a longitudinal direction are mounted. By use of a cross slide, which is mounted on the machine frame, a grinding unit can be moved in a transverse direction. The cross slide contains a closed cross slide frame, which extends in the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction. The closed cross slide frame enables a simple and stable construction of the rail grinding machine and flexible adjustability of the grinding unit.
