About This Product
Set up on a milling machine with automatic feed, the sensing unit passes force data from its octagonal rings to the indicator, which shows all three cutting forces simultaneously. Students vary depth of cut, material, speed and feed to see how each one changes the forces. The standard octagonal ring method with strain gauges makes this one of the engineering educational equipments in India suited to measuring milling forces in the THEORY OF MACHINE LAB.
Frequently Asked Questions
