In this video we complete the repairs needed on the roll journal. We'll set the roll back into the lathe, true up the center, then machine the shaft back to specs.

What I see in this video is a man representing all those people who made great nations. True one needs culture, languages, traditions, religions, law, philosophies, medicine and all the classical professions, but at the back, there are the great men who give us all the tangible comfort inside and outside our homes. This man is applying processes and logic that many people do not know about as they only like to be vociferous and to be seen in public. I already have seen some video of this gentleman where he decides how to conduct the repair. I shall not go into detail but I love the manner in which he decides how a repair is to be made, whether to weld the shaft or make a new one. The accuracy at which he centralizes his workpiece and such meaningful expression to me, " I shall let it cool down till the morning and then give it the finishing cut!" This man knows his silent stresses and strains. His welding is as elegant as any work of art hanging on the wall...........in fact it is more difficult and more useful. This is what I meant when I said that this man represents all those silent people who make a great nation..... without people like this gentleman working silently in workshops there would not be any tangible comforts in our homes and in hospitals and aircraft and ships and cars giving us our new way of life. Sir, may I congratulate you on your great work, your arc welding is brilliant and your feeling towards the material with which you work , well the manner in which you pass that gentle hand of yours over the workpiece..........it all means that you love your work and have a feeling for what goes on in that material.......... to other people it is simply cold steel, to you it is like giving birth to a child who will later work to produce a great nation. If all nations have people like you.......... there would not need to be this emigration and immigration from undeveloped countries who have people like this gentleman. Sir, Congratulations once again. You are a good conscientious, brilliant man. I come from a family of boatbuilders and I would install any of your work in my boats as it is so reliable.

I admire a good machinist. I worked as a millwright for a good while the guys that slopped stuff out made my job very rough. I couldn't even get some of those guys to fit the inter race of a bearing before sending it to me. But guys like this made my job actually fun.

No matter how good CNC machines get, or how powerful computers become, nothing, absolutely nothing, will compare to the human touch of a finger tip or nail to "feel" that last few thou needed for a successful repair.

Excellent work, we used to repair the similar shaft ends by turning 1/4" under diameter then shrink on nominal 1/8" wall sleeve and on, then weld were you finished radius. The fitter should dimple the shaft for the grub screws and Loctite, on new machines. We had general procedure to do this, but laziness and time constraint it was missed causing that type of wear problem. You can get that type of bearing with eccentric lock, much better but cost more.

They probably need a second bearing or a bigger heavier bearing, or perhaps a bearing that can take the environment of where that roll is installed. You're at least the 2nd guy to weld the shaft back up and machine it down. I'm guessing the bearing fails and chews the shaft up before the maintenance crew can catch it.

Think about it......thats a big heavy long roll, its going to have even more pressure on it from something running over it...probably some kind of foil or film...or paper running over it. Now with a half thou undersize journal, producing a light hand sliding fit ....the entire weight is going to rest on the tips of two setscrews....every time the roll rotates. They will immediatly begin to wear into the soft roll, remember setscrew tips are very hard. In a few months of even moderate to light load and speed they will have worn several thou down , and every tenth they wear in the rate accelerates. Albom knows what these guys want...loose fit ...easy assembly....no need to use a bearing heater and heat the bearing because its a tight .001 0r. .0015 oversize shaft that will run for 10 years @ 24/7/365. Theres a lotta corruption in a lotta mantenance departments ... they sorta NEED dramatic breakdowns that put s management crying to them for a fix.....because all of a sudden maint is VERY IMPORTANT ........if the danm machine runs forever without maint calls it looks like maintenance are not needed. Maint and the plant engineer know the roll could be fixed so it would last forever , by making the shaft journal 1.939 using a bearing heater to install the bearing then having Albom put a journal 3" dia on the other end that would be exactly .005 below the 3" bearing id .....for a semi slide for axial expansion which is needed for temp changes for long rolls....unless the support structure is intentionally flimsy enough to allow for the roll length du to temp change. American manufacturing challenged by 3rd world .....? Yeah lotta its because of character deterioration ...at multiple levels in our plants.... Albom does fine work...he is giving them just what they want......

Adam, noticed in first video, that you set it up in lathe, then took it back out to weld it! was that done so that you knew if it "ran true", so that after you welded it, you knew that it could be turned to spec? another great video!!!
@jdgower18 жыл бұрын
+Fred Newman In the first video, he used the center to true the roller in the lathe, and then set the steady rest to hold that position. When he took the roller out of the lathe, he didn't even breathe on the steady rest, so as to maintain that reference position. Welding on a journal causes it to go all sorts of wonky so that when he put the roller back in the lathe after welding, the center hole was effectively useless as any sort of axial reference. Luckily, though, the steady rest was already set to hold the roller true and the center hole could be re-cut based on that. Actually, I was a little surprised he didn't weld the center up and just cut a new one altogether, but dressing the old one as he did worked effectively the same.
