This video is the first of new series involving the machining of a new gearbox shaft. The material is 9 1/2" 4140 by 62" Long.
To start with, I have to press the old shaft out of the gear. You'll see me set up on the press for some heating and press work first, then the removal of the second bearing. Later we'll move to the boring mill and lathe to start the machine work on the new material.
Follow along as we turn a raw piece of shafting into a functional part that will be used in heavy industry.
