| Dynamic Loading - moving weight of spindle Load Case = I (see page 28) Loading (F) = 600 lbs. (see page 28) Equation: = Fh > F (see page 28) Knowing that Fh must be at least 600 lbs (F), Fh can be assumed to be 600 lbs, and considering a HS 12, the minimum saddle length can be calculated from the following slide load formula: Fh = 238 x S (see page 28) 600 = 238 x S S = 2.52 saddle length Rounding up to the nearest whole number: S = 3 inches (Note: A slide's length should never be less than its width). S = 12 inches Dynamic Loading - feeding boring spindle Load Case = V (see page 28) Slide moment Loading (M) = F x d (see page 28) M = F x d = 6 x 750 = 4500 (inch-lbs.) Equation: = Mz > F x d (see page 28) Knowing that Mz must be at least 4500 inch-lbs (M=F x d), Mz can be assumed to be 4500 inch-lbs, and considering a HS12, the minimum saddle length can be calculated from the following slide load formula: Mz = 30 x S2 4500 = 30 x S2 S = 12.25 Rounding up to the nearest whole number: S = 13 inches Use a HS12 slide with 13 inch long saddle. |
