Acme
designed and produced a laminated wood tooling pattern (a common
technique used in the metal spinning industry) for production of the
hemispherical parts. The tooling was designed on Acme's CAD system and
then machined on a 120" diameter capacity lathe.
Production of
the parts started out with 3/16" thick, type 304 stainless steel blanks
measuring almost 8 feet in diameter. The parts where produced on a
specially equipped hydraulic spinning lathe customized by Acme to
enhance part size and overall finish quality.
The four parts
measured 72" in diameter x 36" deep. Acme used an annealing process
during the production to help relieve material stress and work
hardening. Finally, the parts were polished to a
#4 finish.
Acme
is considered a specialist in hemispherical and large diameter
spinnings. Secondary value-added operations can be easily incorporated
on one of Acme's additional CNC systems.
