Increase in productivity of 1.65 ratio hypoid ring Gear hard turning
Mahindra & Mahindra were challenged to increase productivity in their hard turning operation by 50%. They converted a spring actuated chuck to a hydraulic operated chuck. By doing so they could increase the rpm of the chuck and proportionately increase feed rate during hard turning operations. The increased hydraulic pressure now compensated the increase in centrifugal force due to higher spindle rpm.
