Faced with the prospect of machining a gear or gears for a project,
many model engineers will be discouraged and will turn elsewhere
for their next model. This need not be so, for the principles
underlying gear cutting and many other aspects of engineering where
an accurate division of circles is required are explained in depth
in this book. Radial work on a metalworking lathe, such as the
cutting of gearwheels or the drilling of holes on a set radius,
calls for a method of precisely spacing the cuts. This skill is
known as Dividing. The principles underlying this aspect of
engineering are explained in depth in this book. It covers the
subject of Dividing, dealing with the many methods that can be
adopted: from simple applications without specialised equipment to
the use of a semi-universal dividing head and a rotary table. The
mathematical aspects of dividing are also covered but at a level
that will be understood easily by a model engineer. Dividing
equipment is relatively expensive, so two fully-detailed designs
are included for dividing heads: a basic unit and the equivalent of
a commercial semi-universal head.
