BREWED THAT WAYBREWED THAT WAY

Do you work for a business that has something to crow about? Contact mark@tradetools.co.nz to tell us about it – from shed based rebuild projects through to multi-million dollar ventures; if there’s great engineering going on, we would love to hear about it!

FARRA Engineering

Farra is an integrated engineering company based in Dunedin providing efficient and competitive engineering solutions to a wide range of local and international customers. They split into separate trading divisions in the 1990s to provide clarity of purpose. These include Design, Sheetmetal, Fabrication, Machining, & Stainless Steel – see more at www.Farra.co.nz

Amongst other projects the Stainless division has been designing and manufacturing micro breweries for two decades now and they have numerous installations throughout New Zealand and Australia, including the award winning Emerson’s Brewery in Dunedin. With packages ranging in size from 1200L to 5000L they can either supply single vessels or as is often the case, a complete turnkey brewery – designed, manufactured, and installed!

Most interesting though is the “Personal Brewery” (cover photo). Designed with two markets in mind; established breweries for use in trying out new recipes or for the adventurous home brewer who has been making beer for a

while and is looking to step up production.. The unit consists of three 59L pots, gas burners, a false bottom for wort extraction, a kettle hop filter and a plate heat exchanger, all mounted on a trolley with lockable wheels. The unit is approximately 600mm wide x 1000mm long x 1800mm high which fits comfortably through a standard doorway. The pots are all easily removable for cleaning. The three tier system design also eliminates the need for pumps by utilising gravity.

In this edition of the Trade Tools magazine, we will be giving one of these units away!! With a RRP of $3735, this would have to make someone VERY HAPPY!!! Simply spend $500 or more, in one transaction on product from within this publication and go into the draw to win.

STARRETT – MACHINE LEVELS98 Series Machinists’ Levels with ground & graduated vials. These vials are adjustable to a positive setting & are housed in a satin finished brass tube with a friction-fit closing cover to prevent breakage. The base of the levels features an involute groove running the length of the base, which provides a reliable seat for round work such as pipes or shafting. With the cross test vial, it is possible to simultaneously level in both directions. This prevents inaccuracies in the main vial reading caused by canting the level sidewise on round work.

SGS CARBIDE MILLING Brand names such as Z-Carb, S-Carb & V-Carb, have become synonymous with high performance tooling in the machining and metalworking industry. We’re proud to offer some of the world’s most advanced cutting technology with high performance End Mills, Drills, and Routers and can show you how to increase productivity. Why not get in touch and let us prove to you just what is possible in both savings & performance.

The Z-Carb-AP offers performance so advanced, it goes way beyond typical high performance carbide end mills. With most 4-flute end mills, the cutting teeth enter and exit the material creating a natural rhythm that results in damaging harmonics. The harmonics produce a frequency that resonates through the entire end mill, resulting in chatter. With its patented, one of a kind geometry, the Z-Carb-AP offers three stages of chatter suppression. Superior chatter suppression through advanced patented design Increase productivity by cutting deeper and wider without harmful harmonics Lower cutting forces for dramatically longer tool life.

HIGH FEED MILLING Q & A

Several Lucky customers got to put a tick beside one of their “Bucket List” must do’s as Seco and Trade Tools entertained the winners of the recent drive a Ferrari promotion (Issue 5). It has to be said that ENZO probably didn’t see the future of his dream machine in the hands of most of our winners but that didn’t stop them at least trying to replicate the likes of the Schumacher’s and Schechter’s when the chance arose.

With winners joining us from as far afield as Christchurch there was a true national feel to the event, which inspired the Seco Australasian Sales Manager, Mr Wayne Norman to declare that this will not be a one off and we will have more cars and drivers next year.

Trade Tools see a synergy between the Ferrari and the Seco product, both deliver consistent high levels of performance that leave those at the controls with complete confidence in experiencing excellence..

Keep an eye out for our promotions so you too can join us next year.

6 WAYS TO REDUCE TOOL WEAR

CNC machine cutting tools are perishable by nature, but that doesn’t mean you can’t take steps to prolong the life of your cutting tools. Not only are the tools, themselves, an expense but replacing worn tools can interrupt production and add labour costs. Not replacing worn tools in a timely manner can also impact the quality of a work piece.

Here are 6 ways you can get the most out of your cutting tools.

1 Recognize the signs: When tools become worn or damaged they typically require greater cutting force and may generate

increased temperatures in the tool and the workpiece. Surface finish may suffer as well as dimensional accuracy. Worn tools are also subject to breakage, thus interrupting a machining cycle.

2 Understand the kinds of tool wear: Flank wear is simply the result of the pressure of the cutting tool on the workpiece.

Notching is damage caused by adhesion to

the rake face and flank of the tool. Cratering of the rake side of the insert occurs from a chemical reaction between the material and cutting tool. Edge build-up typically happens when cutting softer materials such as copper and aluminium. These materials can adhere themselves to the cutting tool surface. Drill bits are subject to edge wear and inserts can experience edge cracks.

3 Be aware of the effects of temperature: The energy used in cutting metals converts to heat. About 80% of this heat is

typically transferred to the chips, which leaves 20% affecting the tool and spindle. These temperatures can be as high as 700º F and can deform both the cutting tool and the workpiece.

4 Apply appropriate coolant: It’s critical to control the effects of temperature on tooling. When temperatures exceed

500º F molecular changes begin to take place even in hardened steel. The nature of the material you are cutting, the spindle speed, feed-rate, complexity of cut and operations to be performed will all impact the way coolant should be applied during a machining cycle.

Coolant delivery should be programmed to apply the proper pressure at various stages of an operation, either through the CNC machine controller or via a peripheral programmable variable pressure coolant system.

5Consider the workpiece material: All metals have unique characteristics. Some are relatively easy to machine

while exotic alloys, titanium and other hard-to-cut materials are more challenging. Machining unleaded brass, for example, requires a different approach than cutting leaded brass. Unlike 360 brass that requires simple cutting tools, unleaded brass is not only harder to machine but creates more heat, thus requiring different coatings, higher helix angles, increased clearance angles and wider flutes.

6Match the right tool to the job: ”The tooling is critical, including having the right geometry, hardness, coating and

sharpness. On many hard metals, for example, if the tool is too sharp it will wear prematurely.
