I work for HiShear an aerospace fastener co. They do large lots for Boeing and Airbus. For big bolts like this one they would invest in tooling to Hot stamp the head, grind the shank, hot roll the thread after heat treating. Maybe also roll radius or Roll Burnishing the head/shank radius for higher strength. Then the part goes to plating for what ever is called out.
I used to weld Waspalloy, Inconel, Monel, and a lot of other aircraft engine alloys. I worked for a company called Chromalloy which was an FAA lic. repair station. We reconditioned hot section parts and combustion chambers for a large variety of commercial aircraft engines. I worked mostly on JT-9D Pratt and Whitney parts, and GE LM-2500 parts.
I have machined this material a few times before and the knowledge you gain on the manual machine really helps the speeds and feeds for when you need to program a CNC !
@@ZZZHarpy101the data sheets might contain very in depth data about the material properties (yield strength, hardenability, tempco. etc) but the machining data is more guidance to get you close as there are way too many other factors, such as tool type or machine rigidity and resonances, to give concise information.
Nickel based superalloy with, let's see, 18-21 % chromium, which is ok, 12-15 % cobalt, which is YIKES!, a significant 3.5-5 % molybdenum for increased corrosion resistance, around 3% titanium and about 1.5% aluminium, to form intermetallics (it is age-hardening), a few knife tips of carbon, boron and zircon, and the rest is incidental, so only a max. value, not a minimum required concentration. Yeah, I don't need to _see_ this alloy (congrats, you guys are the first to show it to me!) because the chemical composition tells it all. This is one nasty mother trucker!

Very interested to learn more about the ''manual'', or I guess ''mechanically automated control'' machining of this stuff! Were the tools you used similar to what the screw machine operators would use? i.e brazed carbide touched up on Agathon grinders type of thing?
Been doing this for 33yrs..... its child's play. Very well documented process, and I do appreciate the attention to the c-axis orientation irrelevance on the sub-spindle ops.
I'm literally VTL turning a Waspaloy turbine disk now... Using a 3/8 button since I don't have to get into any tight corners. The bigger radius will last waaaaay longer, for anyone that may need to know.. also a lesser depth of cut helps a ton too, but I'm using a totally different composition of insert, so I may have to order up a 433 like this guy is using. Good stuff!
I have heard stories from my coworkers about how some gas turbine blades we make sometimes for Siemens and they are made of that stuff. The machine that runs it shakes so much when it begins to mill that you can feel the vibrations in the floor on the other side of the factory floor. We haven’t made them while I have worked there though so i can’t say if it is true or not but maybe someday I’ll see it for myself
If you think that's tough try nimonic PK33, I used to work in a superalloy production facility, it was hard to just cut the billets with an abrasive wheel
I am amazed that a part stick out thatvfar did not cause tool chatter. That wasp metal is tuff stuff. I expect the aluminum was more of a challenge in the prototyping and used for filming purposes. Thank you for the VIDEO.
Cool part, cool video. I've never used that material but you cut it well. Why do you use a tapered endmill to finish the star pattern instead of a straight endmill in an axial (horisontal) orientation to the part? Is the parts corner radius too small to allow a suitable endmill to generate the shape properly in that orientation?
I used to be a metal spinner , not a cnc metal spinner!!!!i mean a manual hand spinner, in the aerospace industry. Ive spun waspalloy so many times a nd trimmed it by hand . As a sheet metal its pretty tough aswell to bend and spin
Good explanation, you do a good job explaining what each process does. Would this be a candidate for ceramic turning? Obviously this is for demonstration purposes, but I definitely see how having a (B?) head isn't a 'fixall' for all situations, turret tools can get much close and you can reduce hangouts a whole bunch.
When you pushed the part into the chuck, the jaws had enough of a radius to let the bolt seat to the face of the jaws and not interfere with the radius on the inside corner of the bolt?
Try stellite 31. I used to make the pins that pushed out the old glass headlights thats had the four protrusions on the backside. B4 heat treat they would eat an insert about every 3 parts. This was 1988-89. Then after heat treat they came back and centerless ground everything with tolerances like +.0000 -.0002 you dressed the wheel every pin.
lol, making a throttle shaft from Ti... the slot and the two M3 holes tested me. i quickly decided that sharpening the broken taps was the best approach... short and stumpy :) only got Ti as i couldnt find steel in ground 7mm dia... cheaply, anyway. "give it a go, huh"?
@@paradiselost9946people under estimate the power of just shortening tools all the way up. Did a bunch of 2d cut out work with 1.2mm aluminium sheet, ground my own bits to 1.3mm off the shank.

I would love to see you guys machine some bronze parts, specifically the type found on sea vessels. I currently work with that material as a new manual machinist, aspiring to be a CNC machinist some day.
Water with high pressure trough the tool pointing directly on the tip of the insert can also reduce wear and you can increase speeds and feeds. 10% coolant solution is also an advantage in these difficult to cut materials.
I was machining high nickel content alloys, including Waspaloy, Hastelloy, and Inconel, when I was 25 years old. That was so very long ago, but I remember it like it was only yesterday.
It's a showpiece, not intended for any function except to show the process and tooling using to cut Waspaloy. A "real" aerospace fastener like that would have a 12-point (not 8) drive, and more likely be forged and roll-threaded instead of cut thread (for toughness and thread flank surface finish quality).
This stuff would be a lot worse than monel. That stuff is just tough and a bit gummy, this stuff is like IRL adamantium with its chemical makeup, all it would need would be a few percent tungsten and it would be nearly impossible to machine with anything short of EDM.😮.
That is a thing of beauty, im the sort of person that could spend hours looking at a nicely machined part, than an real beautiful sculpture, well machined parts ARE sculptures anyway, this part gives me warm feelings, really love the surface finish, so pleasing, this video is prosented in such a detailed way, and VERRY good quality, it so sickening how good it is, i sit here like WOOOOOOOOOW, look at that, ooow, ahhhhhhhh, THANK you SO much for the satisfying factual video, 1000/10 for sure, Best wishes to you and family, and keep up this GREAT content, i want to see more, so ofcourse im subbing, thanx SO much for exsisting in this world good sir, you are a giant to me.
Can't think of a part, however I'm curious if there's a way to program and make a detailed miniature like perhaps the arbiter from halo as an example. Without layering or any tooling marks, just smooth nice finish in titanium or something nifty like that, done in let's say 30mm tabletop gaming to minimize material waste and it'd be nifty if possible. I've seen dice and other simpler designs so figured eh why not toss that idea. Or a custom tool chest completely made from parts y'all made with machining in mind?
@@verakoo6187 Eh I was thinking it'd be neat to see em program and make something like that as it'd be different yet interesting.

Something like that just happens to be similar to my other interests so I mentioned it, I already have the ability to print em if desired. It's more or less just a huh toss idea out there see if they or someone likes it enough to try it and make a video about it.
so, I see this switching between waspaloy and aluminum, is the aluminum one being done either as a test or as an example to show us without lubricant etc. so we can better see what's happeningi with the waspaloy on a less evil metal?

I have a couple of questions here. Why are you clamping on the thread at pick off, but then pausing and pushing the part all the way in so you’re clamping on that clean shaft and up against the flange face after? Why not just do all that at pick off?
I have never seen Waspalloy being machined. But I have seen a sheet metal item butt welded with TIG. A beautiful seam without filler metal. If I remember, it was also done without back-up gas. The part was likely a special nozzle, shaped as a partly flattened cone, i.e. an elliptical cross section. The welding required rather funny shape tooling.
In dental we use chrome cobalt alloys for dentures, its a total pain to finish by hand (wax up needs to be as close as possible, and sprue shouldn't be any bigger than need). However I consistently meet people who have had partials for 50+ years. Bego Wironit is Co 64.0 · Cr 28.5 · Mo 5.0 · Si 1.0 · Mn 1.0 · C
They look to me like they're cut-resistant gloves that are (mostly) made for commercial kitchen work. The color matches up with U-Line's Kevlar gloves.
For cutting aluminum "dry" for camera purposes I would suggest giving the piece a little spray of WD-40 first. Will cut much better and still give you a great shot.
I'm curious why you didn't rough the bolt head in a continuous path around it. It would have actually helped the heat load and saved a ton of extra hops. You did this with the ball endmill... hops = time lost. I mean i guess that's okay if you're just doing it for a video... but still I was expected to find the minimum time per part.
I don’t get what you mean it is a 12 pitch insert it is a single point threading tool it is 60deg it should allow a range of thread pitch’s to cut no? The limiting factor would be the tip radius and the max depth of cut. That would determine the range typically they say the pitch range they offer. If it is Specifically for 12TPI what is the benifits of this? I could see if it were a multiple tooth insert.
Risk more than others think is safe. Care more than others think is wise. Dream more than others think is practical.Expect more than others think is possible.
What if you put a spring-cushioned type of ram into a tool slot, and used that to automatically set the part back into the second chuck? I mean, assuming you're making more than a handful.
Killing it with the lathe stuff man I’m scared of those late people are built different 😆 have you guys ever tried 3D printing carbide tooling and grind it to sharpen it I’d love to see that attempted were I work we’ve looking into (DLS) but the resolution isn’t quite there for the 3D printed rubber molds we make tolerances of .005in nothing for machining be a real challenge for 3D printed mold inserts #htm 140v2

Great work Tyson! Speeds and feeds are KING!
is waspaloy easier or harder to machine than inconel? In my shop we never run inconel above 90 SF/M. These speeds and feeds seem high.
The cobalt added to the alloy likely makes it more difficult than most of the Inconel family.

How much does it cost for this type of bolt to be machined?
did you really grip on that radius in the 2nd op?
They must have chamfered the ends of the jaws to clear the radius. I wondered about it too when I saw him run the piece up the chuck.
I want to know why at pick off, why he didn’t feed all the way up to the flange face in the first place. I was taught to never clamp on threads.
What if you put a spring-cushioned type of ram into a tool slot, and used that to automatically set the part back into the second chuck? I mean, assuming you're making more than a handful.
How much is one of these Bolts?
Sounds like some seriously tough material! :D
Speeds and feeds are key, but triple checking tool path has never failed me.
Wish there was on-screen translations for imperial to metric 8) E: Well well well, found the conversions! Now I'm a happy clam
Nothing diminishes anxiety faster than action.
Titan if this is your son I would have my chest explode with pride I used to follow you way back when and this is not that scared young man from then❤
This is so damn cool in 1000 different ways! I would pay for a guided tour and even to do some work 😁
Surprised you haven't got the diamond inserts that cut metals
I thought red would have felt warmer in summer but I didn't think about the equator.
Some gnarly stuff for sure! If you know you know!
Killing it with the lathe stuff man I’m scared of those late people are built different 😆 have you guys ever tried 3D printing carbide tooling and grind it to sharpen it I’d love to see that attempted were I work we’ve looking into (DLS) but the resolution isn’t quite there for the 3D printed rubber molds we make tolerances of .005in nothing for machining be a real challenge for 3D printed mold inserts #htm 140v2
Imagination is not a talent of some men but is the health of every man.
If we learn to open our hearts, anyone, including the people who drive us crazy, can be our teacher.
Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them; but do not let them master you. Let them teach you patience, sweetness, insight.
Miracles come in moments. Be ready and willing.
Silly question from a non-metallurgist: would Waspalloy make good knife steel if it were workable?
Roll threads on this stuff all the time, definitely prefer it over multiphase
Do ES-1 or Aermet next if you haven't already.
Chef's kiss, it's a beautiful 😚🤌
