Riassunto

Excerpt from Principles of Setting-Out, Securing and Tooling Operations: For Engineering Students and Apprentices and Students in Manual Training, Metal Work

The ever-increasing variety of engineering work, and the degree to which specialisation is carried in modern manufacturing processes, renders it more and more difficult for a workman to obtain a full knowledge of his trade, and to no branch of work does this apply more than to setting-out. A man trained in a type-writer factory may acquire a sound knowledge of 1ig and templet work and die-making, but have very little experience of dealing with castings and forgings of any size on a marking-off table, whereas, a man working in a general repair shop has plenty of work of the latter kind and very little of the former. Moreover, there is an increasing tendency for setting-out to become a separate department, the man who machines an article working to instructions received from the tool room or gauge depart ment. This being so, the need for classes in setting-out is manifest, and this book has arisen out of the Lectures and Workshop Practice instruction given by Mr. Parr at University College, Nottingham.

At one time setting-out meant covering a casting or forging with whitewash and drawing in the lines with a scribing block on a table, now it involves in addition the use of special fixtures for holding the work on the machines, jigs for drilling through, and templets and gauges for setting the tools and testing the accuracy of the work, many articles being finished without a single line being drawn on them. The man who sets out work must be well acquainted with the construction and use of such appliances, and with the proper tolerances and allowances for various classes of fits, as well as with the best methods of holding work and the proper cutting speeds. N o apology 15 therefore needed for the inclusion of such information in a book on Se tting-out.
