Image Description:
Beaman & Smith's Horizontal Spindle Milling-Machine (Fig. 213) is intended for long and heavy cuts, such as guide-bars, connecting-rods, key-seating shafting, axles to 10 in. diameter, etc. The table is 14 in. wide, has three T-slots, moves by a cut rack, and is so geared as to be easily operated by hand. The cross-head is gibbed to the housings, and is adjusted by a screw with graduated dial. The spindle runs in bronze bearings, is driven by a 3 ½-in. belt over a 16-in. pulley, through gearing in the ratio of 5 to 1, arranged for 4 speeds. Provision is made for horizontal adjustment of cutters. The feed is actuated by means of a worm and gear. It can be thrown out by hand or stopped automatically, and is the full length of the table.
