Re: Plan for chuck plate please

 

What about making the backplate fit the chuck snugly and then use a transfer punch through the hole in the chuck.? Your screw holes are now marked.? Drill and tap for M4 screws

Doesn't anyone known the bolt circle diameter or is it in some file?

Try measuring across existing features - For example



Measure the distance from the outside edge of the flange to the outside edge of the screw,
then finding the radius of the screw and of the flange. Using the above I get
Screw to flange side - 23.86 mm
Flange radius 8.86 mm
Screw radius 1.90

23.86 - 8.86 - 1.90 gives a bolt hole radius of 13.1 mm

I was just wondering, what do you guys actually make using your Unimat machines?

I am more of a collector myself but I really should put them to use. (I?have a Unimat SL, Emco 3 and an Emco 3 milling machine.)?

Now my country, like many others is on lock down. I've been looking for a small project I can complete in my home. Any suggestions?

PS. Im not interested in steam engines. ?

I just run up the motor and filed a groove into the belt pulley to take a belt.

Re: Plan for chuck plate please

 

Hi ;-)
Thank's Matt and Pat
I found this photo in the old forum , but il lacks a very precise essential dimension : the diameter of the centers of the holes (Red arrow)? , one for 3 and one for 4 jaw chucks .
Here i tried to mesure (with a blow on a ball on the paper placed on the support, with an Euro coin as a reference - diameter = 23.16mm), but i find little gaps with each measurement ...




For others dimensions, it's good !

A friend is making these peices (on a big lathe) for my SL :



here is the progress :

> Missing the tapping holes !

Have a good day, be save (here the outside life has stopped, totally..., Very strange...)
Thank's !

Re: Plan for chuck plate please

 

There was a guy in Canada I think that had a bunch of new old stock face plates for both 3 and 4 jaw chucks. ?I bought 2 of each. I can try and dimension hem out.

Boy, do those bring back memories! (large items in a small working envelope)?

G'Day!

I use my Unimat 3 for making all of the stuff that is too large for my Favorite 2 watchmakers lathe. Among other things I use it to make various tools, out of steel, brass, aluminium, Derlin, PTFE etc, although not out of wood. Below are some examples of tooling that I have made. Watchmaking often requires having to use tools that are either unavailable, too expensive or just take too long to arrive through mail. For example, I made all necessary additional parts for my Lorch, like tensioning device, the complete overhead drive for the milling/drilling attachment - mainly used for cosmetic snailing watch parts. Also made a WW collet adaptor for the Unimat 3 to allow roughing up parts before finishing them in Favorite 2 lathe, I had a suitable draw tube in my "junk" box just waiting to be used. There are too many things like watch and clock parts and tools made on the Unimat 3.

Cheers, Dushan
