Types of Scriber

Pocket Scriber:

 Pocket Scriber

Pocket scriber are small scribers about 100mm (4″) long . They often feature replaceable tips and a hexagonal head to stop them from rolling off work surfaces.

Machinist’s Scriber:

These scribers are just longer versions of pocket scribers, usually 150-200mm (6-8″) long. They often have a clip almost like a pin to secure them onto jacket pockets and stop them from rolling off work surfaces.


Double-Ended Scriber:

 Double-Ended Scriber


These scribers feature a straight point at one end of the scriber and should have a selection of angled points at the other. The angled point allows lines to be marked on the workpiece in confined areas like inside holes or on the underside of ridges.


Knife Edge Scriber:

 Knife Edge Scriber


These scribers have a straight point at one end and a flat blade at the other and should range in length from 100-250mm (4-10″). The blade is employed for marking lines on wood, plastic and other soft material. They have several other names including ‘striking knives’, ‘scoring knives’, ‘layout knives’ and ‘marking knives’, although most of those will only feature the blade and not have a scriber point at the other end.

Milling Machine Parts

Parts of Milling Machine: There are mostly two sorts of miller utilized in mechanical industries. First one is horizontal miller and other one is vertical miller. The basic parts of these machines described as follow.   Base: It is the inspiration a part of a miller. All other parts are jointed on it. It carries the whole load so it should have high compressive strength so it's made by forged iron. It also works as reservoir of cutting fluid.       Column: Column is another foundation part of milling machine. It is mountain vertically on the base. It supports the knee, table etc. Work as housing for the all the opposite driving member. It is a hollow member which contains driving gears and sometimes motor for spindle and therefore the table.             Knee: Knee is that the first moving a part of miller. If is mounted on the column and moves along the slideways situated over the column. It is made by forged ir...

Micrometer and it's main parts

Micrometer and It's Parts:  Micrometer   Micrometer: The micrometer may be a precision measuring system, employed by engineers. Each revolution of the rachet moves the spindle face 0.5mm towards the anvil face. The object to be measured is placed between the anvil face and the spindle face. The rachet is turned clockwise until the thing is ‘trapped’ between these two surfaces and therefore the rachet makes a ‘clicking’ noise. This means that the rachet can't be tightened anymore and therefore the measurement are often read.   Main Parts of Micrometer: 1.      Main Frame 2.      Zero adjusts screw 3.      Anvil 4.      Spindle 5.      Anvil Face and Spindle Face 6.      Lock Nut 7.      Sleeve 8.      Thimble 9.      Rachet 1.      Mai...

Types of Heavy weight Non-ferrous Metals

Types of Heavy Weight Metals: Copper (Cu):  Copper It is probably the primary engineering metal to be used. Unlike other metals, it can occur in nature within the metallic form also as an ore. It has excellent heat and electrical conductivity and resists to corrosion when alloyed with other metals. However, thanks to lower density, aluminum has higher conductivity per unit weight. Zinc (Zn):  Zinc Zinc is an inexpensive material with moderate strength. It is chemically similar to magnesium. Mechanically zinc is more ductile but not as strong. Although its metal and alloy forms are important, zinc is most commonly used to extend the life of other materials such as steel (galvanizing), rubber and plastic (as an aging inhibitor), and wood (in paint coatings). The zinc-base alloys have an important place as a die-casting metal as it has low melting point (419.5 ºC) which does not affect steel dies adversely, and hence it can be made into alloys with good ...
