You are a very good, well prepared teacher. I will try my indexing head tomorrow. Thank you very much. The use of the model was very instructive and your camera work and editing added to the clarity of your explanations. Appreciative, jim.
Hi Jim, thank you for your kind words and taking the time to leave a message it is much appreciated! I'm glad it was helpful. As soon as I have a chance to edit I will have a video up on simple indexing.
Awesome! All the older stuff really want to learn, going back before CNC. Now and days I probably will never get a chance to learn any of it. Thanks keep it up!
Thanks you my teacher took about 3 hours to explain this and I learned more in your 8 minute videos than I did in those 3 hours. I think it's because you made it sound so simple and once you know how it works it really is simple
Given the 40:1 ratio, then 20 turns would move 180 degrees. Why wouldn't this be considered Direct Indexing? A Spin Indexer (with pins, etc.) would be a Direct Indexing tool. I am thinking there is a substantial overlap between Plain Indexing and Direct Indexing. Or is it just a "convention" adopted that using a 40:1 ratio = Plain Indexing and not Direct?
You are absolutely right in your thinking, 20 turns will move the dividing head 180 deg. It is considered Plain indexing because the worm is in mesh with the worm gear forcing the operator to move the dividing head with the index crank. If it was "direct" you could turn the index crank all day and nothing would happen. To move the dividing head you would "directly" move the spindle.
You made me visualize how the grooves are cut with the help of direct indexing.
Thanks a lot
I'm glad you found it useful. Thank you for watching and your message.

you are a very good teacher... i never understood these manufacturing processes..but your videos make all these look so simple...keep it up..

+Dillon G That's why I'm doing this! Thanks!
Perfect demonstration . Thanks
Thank you, I appreciate you watching. I'll have a video up on plain indexing very soon!

I'm a big believer in video, I think it really helps. Thanks for the comment Andrew!
I agree...great video...very straightforward and easy to understand!! thank you
Thank you for watching!
Good education ...tks
Thank u very much sir. It cleared all my doubts...
I'm glad it helped, thanks you for leaving a message.
GREAT VIDEO SIR THANK YOY
My pleasure, thank you for watching and leaving a note.
Informative video. Thanks
Glad it helped.
machiningmoments Yeah, the step by step procedure is wonderful. Well, it was for me as a mechanical engineering student. Thanks again pal
all clear .. awesome
I'm glad it helped, thanks for your message.
thank you very much sir..
Thank you for watching.
please make an angular indexing. if you already have link please? thanks :D
+Reñel Joseph Arado I will put that suggestion on my video making list! Thanks
:)
Ya please make the video on angular indexing.... Plz
Sir, we are also interested to see differential and compound indexing. please share if possible.
Differential indexing is a subject I feel would not be easy to put on youtube. Can you let me know what part you are struggling with?
flutes is what you mean by flats?
+Reñel Joseph Arado Milling a "flat " surface on round material.
ohh. i get it. sorry.
