Manufacturing and Assembly
Tools
- CNC Mill (3 axis is preferred though possible to do with 2 axis)
- Lathe
- Waterjet
- Taps
Fabrication
- Use the waterjet to cut the chipper arm sheet metal
- The 3 axis CNC Mill is used to create the chipper boot; kicker boot; front,mid and rear mounts, and the plunger stabilizer.
- When milling the front solenoid mount make sure to put in the bushing in the pocket first before you mill the section.
- Use the lathe and mill to create plunger.
- To do this, first create a hole in the both steel and stainless steel shafts with the lathe.
- Thread holes with a 10-32 tap and attach both shafts with the set screw. Use retaining compound on the set screw.
- Now turn down the created shaft with lathe to the desired diameter.
- Cut Shaft to desired length.
- Use the mill to mill down the shaft to accommodate the kicker boot.
- Rip off the casing of the push type solenoid to get the coil.
