Air Feed Technical Information

MOUNTING DATA:


1. NOSE PIECE: Automatic mechanical/air-feed drills, tappers and back spotfacers are equipped with either a short or a long nose piece depending upon the length of the cutting tool holding device - i.e. drill chuuk, tap chuck, morse taper adapter, etc.
2. REDUCER BUSHING: Reducer bushings are occasionally used to reduce the thread size in a specific nose piece to adapt it to accommodate smaller thread drill
bushing tips.
3. DRILL BUSHING TIPS: Close fit between mating the shank of tip and the hole in the lock liner bushing holds tool alignment to produce straight close-tolerance holes

4. LOCK LINER AND LOCK NUT: This is a conventional method for automatic, mechanical/air feed drills, tappers and back spotfacers to a jig face or fixture. A hole is bored in the jig to accommodate the lock liner bushing (4A). The lock nuts (4B) hold the lock liner in position in the jig.
5. DIRECT JIG MOUNTING: An Alternate mounting method for holes so closely spaced that a lock liner bushings cannot be used has lock screws mounted directly in the jig. The shank of the drill bushing tip fits directly into the bored hole in the jig. Hardened headless liner bushings are available to press into the bored hole to provide a wearing surface and prolong the useful life on the jig.
6. LOCKING STRIP MOUNTING: A second mounting option for closely spaced holes employs a lock strip along each side of the row of holes in the jig. The flanges on the
drill bushing tip lock under the extended edges of the lock strips when the tip is turned 30º to the left. Headless liner bushings pressed into the bored holes in the jig are recommended to forestall wear in the bored holes.
