The parts are indeed bending due to stress relief from machining. The parts range from .07" - .15" diameter and are made out of quite a few different types of stainless.
I agree that it would not work to do a continuous feed. I was referencing that machine by the way it distorts the part while spinning to straighten the part. What I would like to have is a machine that would auto-load each part into a spindle and straighten each one individually.
What I really need to know are any tips or tricks that people may know as to how to reduce heat generation and gulling in this type of process. Thanks again! |
