ATM :Grinding Machine -Trial Run

["Ulhas Deshpande" <ulhas@nagpur.dot.net.in>]

Hello All
 Having completed the construction of an overarm machine,I have commenced a
trial run today. I was afraid that my small icecream machine motor may not
take the load but it seems to be holding its own. the machine has been
running for half an hour now without any problem.
For trial I am running a six inch blank with a six inch tool. I have set the
machine for a  COC 1/3 operation with 2 lbs weight on the pin. The turntable
runs at 28.9 RPM and the over arm at 7.5 strokes .
I'll keep you all posted on the progress
