Engineered for accuracy and durability

Precision Design = Life = Value

Unlike other manufacturers, Riten Industries concentrates solely on the science of rotational workholding. We are committed to serving our customers with the ultimate in centering technology, and direct all our energies to being the best there is. Thats why our motto is Solutions, not excuses. With workpiece capabilities from 4 ounces to more than 400,000 pounds, an industry-leading .00008 TIR, and the worlds largest selection of standard and custom models, Riten offers the widest range of workholding options to satisfy todays global manufacturing requirements.
The Riten threaded seal adapter/retainer allows easy bearing access and is lapped to be parallel to the bearing face. This guarantees that the seal adapter makes complete contact with the face of the bearing for consistent accuracy and rigidity. Perpendicularity is paramount in the manufacture of a precision live center. With the latest in CNC grinding technology, each bearing shoulder is held to within .0001 TIR perpendicular to the centerline of the taper shank, conforming to strict international DIN standards. This precision is crucial for obtaining maximum rigidity and service life. Ritens gageline cross section, together with our robust spindle construction, is designed to produce exceptional resistance to deflection.

Some manufacturers claim that their stubbed spindle design is superior. The truth is its simply less expensive to manufacture. The Riten full length spindle design is supported by multiple bearings which spread the load over the full length of the taper. Riten bearing bores are ground concentric and coaxial to the taper in one operation to .0001 TIR. This combination assures maximum bearing life and accuracy. Through precisely calculated fulcrum positioning, the full length spindle maintains maximum rigidity, dampens vibration, and will flex rather than break when subject to severe moment loads. This unique design is especially important when supporting heavier workpieces.

Bull Nose Live Centers

n Large workpiece center holes. n Large piece parts. n Riten full service and repair. Riten Bull Nose Centers are designed for large bore, heavy work pieces such as hydraulic cylinders, thick wall pipe and heavy rolls. They utilize both ball and tapered roller bearings. For best results, choose a bull nose center that will place the workpiece in the middle or toward the larger end of the 60 angle. This will balance the weight of the part on the center and help carry the load evenly over the bearings.

Rebuilding and Repair Services

Tailstock and Headstock Repair, Rebuilding & Custom Manufacturing

Riten has the capability to repair and remanufacture components for lathes and grinders from all manufacturers. Accuracies of rebuilt units are guaranteed to meet or exceed the manufacturers original specifications, and carry a one-year factory warranty.

Upgrades and redesigns

Lathe tailstock for rebuild. The ID was line bored and honed to restore roundness and size. A new quill was designed and manufactured. A new bearing assembly was selected to increase bearing capacity and rigidity. It used readily available bearings in the event of future maintenance. A new spindle was manufactured with a 5 Morse taper ID replacing the proprietary taper found in the old unit. The 5 Morse taper was selected since it provided commonality with the customers existing tooling and had the advantage of being readily available. The tailstock was completely reassembled and painted prior to shipment to the customer. Live quill design and manufacture. Our customer needed to increase the capacity of a large roll grinder, but the 7 Morse taper live centers used in the tailstock would not support any heavier loads. Riten designed and manufactured a new 9 diameter by 36 long live quill to replace the existing dead quill. The new unit was rated for a maximum work piece weight of 40,000 pounds. The spindle featured a replaceable point option to allow the customer to center 60, 70, and 90 center holes. The tailstock was honed to size and assembled on site with the new quill by our field service personnel.

Repair and rebuilding

Rebuilt headstock of a large Russian lathe. The lathe was used to turn rough forged 30 ft. rolls weighing approximately 20,000 lbs. The rotating spindle was completely refurbished: bearing bores and shoulders were plated and ground; the ID taper and mounting face were ground and held concentric to the bearings within .0002 TIR. The spindle was reassembled with new bearings and seals and returned to the customer for installation. Reground tailstock spindle from a Mazak lathe with a damaged 6 Morse taper ID. The bearing bores were in good condition, so the shaft was steady rested and the Morse taper ID was ground concentric to the bearings within .0002 TIR. The spindle was returned to the customer for assembly into the lathe. Remanufactured tailstock spindle from a Cincinnati step grinder. Riten ground, plated and ground the bearing diameters and shoulders. We steady rested the spindle and ground the 14 Jarno taper ID concentric to the bearings within .0002 TIR. The spindle was returned to the customer for reassembly.

Case study
Hannon Electric Company, which specializes in the repair and rebuilding of electric motors up through 60,000 HP, had a massive Craven lathe with a 130" swing and 29 ft. between centers, which was purchased used. Hannon was beginning to quote on new business with motor shafts weighing up to 180,000 lbs. The lathe needed exceptional rigidity to meet the required accuracy of .005" TIR for size, roundness and taper. It was soon apparent that the tailstock was undersized, and was simply being overpowered when loads began to exceed 70,000 lbs., resulting in damage to the live center. Riten engineers were called in for a complete functional evaluation of the lathe. The premature center failures were traced to the lack of rigidity in the tailstock, which was deflecting significantly under the heavier loads. Riten proposed a complete redesign, converting the dead tailstock to a higher capacity live tailstock and quill assembly. Riten designed and manufactured a 16" diameter live quill rated for a maximum work piece weight of 200,000 lbs. During the manufacturing process, Riten provided engineering oversight, coordinating the efforts of the design firm and the fabricator responsible for the tailstock. Riten then installed the quill in the completed tailstock, and supervised the installation of the entire assembly. After thorough testing, the lathe was returned to service. Final part sizes are now within .002", well under the required maximum tolerance of .005".

Our experts can inspect, qualify and balance all types of manual and CNC lathes and grinding machines, old or new. Bearing problems are often detected and resolved long before they begin to affect machine performance. We conduct test runouts and provide metallurgical certifications. Tailstocks and spindles can be modified or repaired on-site. On a few occasions, we have even performed complete retrofits on installed equipment. Riten offers a contract inspection and preventive maintenance program on all types of spindles and tailstocks, which will keep you up and running while reducing the load on your maintenance people.

Face Drivers

Introduction to Face Driving

Mechanical Design: Type 40 thru 50
The mechanical design has several advantages in comparison to the older hydraulic design. It is a true quick change system, allowing the interchangeability of drive pins and center points without disassembling the face driver. Changing out a set of drive pins and a center point can be accomplished in less than a minute. During operation the center point in the mechanical design locks in place providing superior rigidity and a higher degree of accuracy in comparison to the hydraulic design. Depending on the mounting, concentricity ranges from .0004 -.0008 inches TIR.

Ever increasing demands on the manufacturer to improve productivity and quality have led to the need for faster machining techniques. Face drivers, coupled with modern high performance equipment, maximize productivity and increase product quality at minimal expense. With a Riten Face Driver, the entire work piece is exposed for machining. Since a face driver locates on the end face of the shaft, it is possible to machine the entire length of the work piece in one operation. The single axis reference point established by the center point of the face driver allows for a high degree of accuracy. In comparison, traditional machining requires multiple operations as the part is reversed to turn both ends. Accuracy and productivity suffer as the part is repeatedly chucked. By eliminating operations and setups the use of a face driver reduces costs, increases productivity and produces a part with a higher degree of accuracy.

Hydraulic Design: Type 62 thru 68

Although the hydraulic design requires minor disassembly, changing out a set of drive pins and a center point can be accomplished in five to ten minutes. It performs best in roughing applications where part accuracy is not as critical. The hydraulic design compensates for a higher degree of inaccuracy in the part face in comparison to the mechanical design. Depending on the mounting, concentricity ranges from .0015 -.0025 inches TIR. Both designs are offered in a variety of sizes. This wide range of models offers a high degree of versatility for large parts, such as large rolls, motor shafts and crankshafts; for small parts, such as valve stems, ball studs and automatic transmission shafts; for rough castings and forgings, such as automotive gears. Face drivers are used in many between center operations, such as hobbing, milling, shaping, gear cutting, spline milling, facing and turning. In addition to traditional turning, face drivers are becoming increasing popular in both hard turning and grinding applications. Consult the factory in these circumstances since special pins and a special face driver may be required.

If you are new to face driving or need assistance in selecting a face driver, call Riten at 1-800-338-0027 and ask to speak to a face driver technical specialist. Alternatively, fill out the Information Request form on page 43 and fax to Riten at 800-338-0717 or email to Quotes@riten.com. A product specialist will contact you with a recommendation.

How Riten Face Drivers improve quality and increase productivity

Complete Turning in One Operation Riten Face Drivers, used in conjunction with Riten Live or Dead Centers (see pages 5, 7 and 8), allow the complete turning or grinding of the entire outside diameter of a work piece in a single operation. Facing and chamfering of the ends of the part can be accomplished with the careful selection of the correct face driver, center point and drive pins. Unlike a chuck or grinding dog, a face driver grips and turns the part by locating solely on the face of the work piece. With a chuck or grinding dog, the part must be removed after the first operation, reversed and rechucked before subsequent operations can be performed. Traditional machining requires multiple operations and multiple setups, increasing costs and cycle times while reducing part quality. Aggressive Machining Properly applied, a Riten Face Driver allows you to take very aggressive cuts, as much as 1/4 per side. The chisel-edged drive pins bite deep into the end face of the part under pressure from the tailstock. The initial cut, which should be toward the face driver, will help further seat the pins. Even under the high torque encountered with aggressive machining, the drive pins will rotate the work piece without slippage. Greater Accuracy and Improved Part Quality The face drivers center point centers the part, establishing the axis of rotation while the drive pins penetrate the face of the work piece. Clamped between the center in the tailstock and the face driver in the headstock, the work piece is ready for machining in a single operation. Continuous machining from end to end in one clamping improves concentricity of the part.

Repeatability The accuracy and repeatability of the end face position is assured with face drivers. Under uniform tailstock pressures, the drive pins consistently locate and penetrate the work piece within 0.002 from one piece to the next. Faster Load Times Load and unload times with a face driver are consistently faster than using drive dogs or chucking. Since the face driver self-centers the work piece, parts can be loaded in the machine and clamped in seconds. Chucking takes considerably longer while the operator ensures that the part is centered and square in the chuck jaws. Higher throughput, decreased downtime and increased productivity can be accomplished with face drivers. Automatic Part Loading Due to their self-centering and accurate positioning, face drivers make it possible to automatically load and unload the work piece. In some cases, this can be accomplished without stopping the spindle rotation, further increasing productivity. Eliminate Facing of the Work piece Face drivers reduce or eliminate the need to face irregular or out-of-square faces as long as the center hole is properly drilled. In some cases, even a forged center hole is sufficient if care is used in selecting the correct center point. The compensating medium (mechanical or hydraulic) in the face driver assures equal penetration of the drive pins, despite variations in the surface or in the squareness of the face. Even parts with spherical ends or irregular shapes can be clamped securely with face drivers. These special applications require custom drive pins and center points matched specifically to the application.

Face Driver selection and sizing

Selecting a Face Driver

In selecting a face driver several factors should be considered. As stated earlier, the simplest approach is to fill out an Information Request form on page 43 and send it to the factory. The second approach is to fill out the Information Request form and select the driver yourself based on material hardness, accuracy required, part diameter and the required mounting method. You may find it helpful to fill out the request form as you read the following example: Assume you are attempting to turn a 15 long piece of 2 diameter bar stock (Dimension S), while maintaining .0004 TIR. The face driven end finishes at 1.5 in diameter (Dimension F). It has a .380 diameter center hole. The lathe has an A2-6 spindle nose. Part rotation is clockwise and the material is under 35 Rc. Harder materials may require carbide or diamond coated drive pins. Consult the factory in these circumstances. Accuracy is dependent on the mounting method and the design of the driver. Direct spindle mounting with a flange mount driver is the most accurate, followed by taper mounts and jaw chucking. Mechanical face drivers are accurate within .0004 - .0008 TIR depending on the mounting. Hydraulic face drivers are accurate within .0015 - .0025 TIR depending on the mounting. In this example, a flange mount mechanical face driver would be the best choice since you are trying to achieve .0004 TIR.

Sizing a Face Driver

To size the driver, determine the minimum stock diameter of the work piece on the face-driven end. Take into account any chamfers. The drive pin driving diameter must be smaller than this to allow for tool clearance. Allow a minimum of .080 clearance between the part diameter and the driving diameter of the face driver. In selecting the driving diameter, there are two general rules of thumb to consider: The maximum stock size should be no more than 2 2.5 times the driving diameter and the maximum part length should not exceed 15 times the driving diameter. Continuing with this example, a 44FM face driver (page 48) with a driving diameter of 1.02 1.42 would be a good choice. Even at the smallest driving diameter, the 44FM satisfies both rules of thumb. Other drivers will work, but the 44FM is neither too big nor too small. Center points are selected based on center hole size. Drive pins are selected based on driving diameter, the direction of rotation and the choice of center point. In this example, a C4601 center point will accommodate the .380 diameter center hole. As stated earlier, when looking directly at the driver the rotation is clockwise. P4404 or P4406 drive pins satisfy both the rotation requirement and the selection of a C4601 center point. If several drive pins will work, select the pin with the largest driving diameter. To finish the example, the correct selection is a 44FM face driver, a 708038 spindle adapter, a C4601 center point and six P4406 drive pins.

Both the FM series of mechanical face drivers and the F series of hydraulic face drivers can be mounted directly to the machine spindle nose with an adapter plate. You will need a flange mount face driver and the appropriate spindle adapter for your machine. Remove the chuck and any adapter plates exposing the machine spindle. Inspect the mounting taper in addition to the spindle face for burrs, dents, or any irregularities that may affect the proper seating of the new adapter plate. With the adapter, you will have received fasteners for the face driver, adjustment (stirring) screws for the adapter plate and an adjustment ring. The stirring screws should already be installed in the adapter plate. The adjustment ring will need to be installed on the back face of the face driver. Gentle tapping with a rubber mallet should be sufficient to press the ring on the back of the face driver. Install the adapter plate on the machine spindle nose using the fasteners that originally held the chuck in place. Once the adapter plate is tightened securely you are ready to mount the face driver to the spindle adapter. We recommend removing the center point from the driver since this ID is your primary indicating datum. The fasteners which secure the face driver to the adapter plate should be snug but not tight since you will be indicating the bore to bring the driver on center. Make sure the (4) stirring screws in the adapter are backed off so the driver can be indicated freely. By using the adjusting screws and indicating on the ID, you can bring the face driver on

A dimension = largest diameter of spindle nose to determine spindle size.

Chuck Mounting
Flange mount, chuck mount and Morse Taper mount face drivers can all be jaw chucked. This is an excellent method of utilizing your face driver when removing the chuck is not desirable. Although flange mount drivers are intended to be direct mounted, chucking on the flange is an acceptable practice. It is possible to jaw chuck a Morse Taper mount by inserting the driver in a straight shank adapter sleeve and chucking on the sleeve. Another alternative is to jaw chuck the head of the driver, although care must to taken to avoid damaging the unit. We recommend machining a positive stop or shoulder in your soft jaws to prevent tailstock pressure and cutting forces from pushing the face driver back in the jaws. Chuck mount face drivers have a six degree reverse angle machined on the OD of the flange. You should machine your soft jaws to this angle to ensure the face driver is securely locked in position. Once the face driver is securely held in the jaw chuck you should remove the center point and check the run out. Any eccentricity in the mounting will be reflected in the part.

Running off the Driver

Tailstock considerations
For machines with a dead tailstock, a heavy duty live center suitable for high axial loads (Page 7) should be used. Use of the appropriate live center will allow smooth, free rotation of the work piece. Hydraulic tailstocks should include a means of throttling the stroke to prevent a hammer blow effect as the work piece contacts the drive pins; otherwise, the pins could be damaged.

Pin penetration from the initial clamping stage should range from 0.003 0.005 inches. Visually inspect the first piece prior to taking a cut! Adjust tail stock pressures accordingly. Pin penetration after machining should range from 0.010 to 0.020 inches. Visually inspect the first piece and adjust tail stock pressures accordingly. Visual inspection is an accepted practice when actual tail stock force is not available. Do not confuse hydraulic pressure with tailstock force.

Machining the work piece

Work piece Hardness Generally speaking there will be no problem with drive pin penetration at normal tail stock pressures if the work piece hardness does not exceed 36 Rc. Harder parts may require special carbide tipped or diamond plated drive pins. We suggest you contact the factory at 800-338-0027 for specific recommendations.

Cutting recommendations
1. When setting up for the first time, always use a new insert. 2. The end face of the workpiece should be square within .005. This is particularly important when using Face Drivers with only 3 drive pins. 3. Make sure the workpiece center hole is within the diameter range of the selected center point. 4. When installing the face driver, indicate in the center point as close to zero as possible to reduce runout. 5. IMPORTANT! Before use, make absolutely sure the drive pins are oriented properly with respect to driver rotation (clockwise or counter-clockwise). Incorrect orientation will result in immediate damage to the face driver. 6. For proper face driver operation the first cut is always toward the driver. This will help to firmly embed the drive pins in the work piece. Subsequent operations may cut in either direction, although cutting away from the driver may require higher tail stock pressures. 7. Periodically check the indentations during subsequent operations. If the penetration line begins to have a raised edge on one side, or there is other evidence that the pin is slipping, the drive pins should be changed immediately.

Pin Penetration
Before engaging the face driver, double check that you have the correct drive pins and center point. Running pins in the wrong rotation will result in immediate damage to the face driver. The pictures below illustrate the indentations made by the drive pins during the initial clamping stage (Fig. 1), and the final clamping stage (Fig. 2). Note the uniformity of each indentation, indicating that every drive pin has penetrated the face to the same depth, assuring equal grip by each pin during machining.

Calculation of Tailstock Forces

Mechanical Face Drivers

Proper tailstock force is vital for satisfactory face driving. The force can be calculated using the following 4 steps: 1. Using Table 1, find the ratio of the rough workpiece diameter to the face driver driving diameter. 2. In Table 2, determine the chip cross section. 3. Using the results from Tables 1 and 2, find the appropriate tailstock force in Table 3. These values are a starting point and can be adjusted to meet specific variables in the machining operation. 4. The tables assume that the direction of feed is toward the face driver. If the feed direction is away from the driver, the tailstock pressure must be increased by 100%. For plunge cutting, the tailstock pressure must be increased by 50%. The tables also assume that material hardness is between Rc 20 and Rc 40. Harder materials may require special carbide tipped or diamond plated drive pins. Please contact Riten Technical Service for specific recommendations.

Face Driver Care and Maintenance

Properly maintained, Riten Face Drivers and Live Centers are trouble free. However, like all precision tools they should not be abused. The drive pins, center points and carrier bodies in a face driver are machined to tight tolerances to help prevent contamination. The high quality seals in both products resist coolant contamination. The two types of compensating media in a face driver are hydraulic or mechanical. Standard mechanical face drivers should be inspected periodically for deterioration in the male and female spherical washers. Hydraulic face drivers should be inspected periodically for oil leakage. In either case, drive pins and center points should be periodically removed and inspected for wear. Cleaning these parts and coating them with light oil or lubricating paste will extend tool life. The following instructions are specific to each type of face driver. Mechanical Type 40 - 50 Series Periodic maintenance may be required to insure that your Riten mechanical face driver functions as designed. The drive pins and center point are the primary wear parts. Changes in drive pin penetration are an indication that the drive pins may need to be replaced. Sharp drive pins indent the part in a well defined straight line. The indentations are symmetrical in terms of length, depth and appearance. If the penetration line begins to show signs of a raised edge on one side, or there is other evidence that the pin is slipping, the drive pins should be changed immediately. Indentations that are V shaped rather than I shaped are clear indications of extreme slippage. Drive pins should be replaced well before this occurs. Waiting too long to replace worn drive pins can result in significant damage to the face driver.

Center point wear is easily identified by scoring or galling on the contact angle. Once this occurs the center point should be replaced. Worn center points can contribute to concentricity problems with the work piece. When replacing drive pins or center points, a small amount of grease should be applied to the parts being replaced as well as the bores in the face driver carrier body. This will help prevent corrosion and provide lubrication in these critical areas. The mechanical face driver does not contain hydraulic oil and therefore requires less maintenance. Over time however, the mechanical driver may require service. Internal wear parts include the spherical washer assembly, the tapered wedges, and the spring/spring pin assembly. The spherical washer assembly is responsible for the drive pin compensation. The spring and spring pin assembly control the center point travel, while the tapered wedges lock the center point in place at the appropriate point during chucking. Failure to actuate or excessive run out are indications of excessive wear in these critical components. Riten offers a comprehensive repair service which includes a complete inspection and replacement of all internal components. Heavily worn or damaged face drivers may also need a new carrier body in addition to the normal maintenance. Mechanical face drivers can be easily repaired by the customer by following the detailed instructions of a Riten representative.

Face Driver Care and Maintenance (cont.)

Hydraulic Type 62 68 Series Periodic maintenance may be required to insure that your Riten hydraulic face driver functions as designed. The drive pins and center point are the primary wear parts. Changes in the drive pin penetration are an indication that the drive pins may need to be replaced. Sharp drive pins indent the part in a well defined straight line. The indentations are symmetrical in terms of length, depth and appearance. If the penetration line begins to show signs of a raised edge on one side or other evidence that the pin is slipping, the drive pins should be changed immediately. Indentations that are V shaped rather than I shaped are clear indications of extreme slippage. Drive pins should be replaced well before this occurs. Waiting too long to replace worn drive pins can result in significant damage to the face driver. Center point wear is easily identified by scoring or galling on the contact angle. Once this occurs the center point should be replaced. Worn center points can contribute to concentricity problems with the work piece. When replacing drive pins or center points a small amount of grease should be applied to the parts being replaced as well as the bores in the face driver carrier body. This will help prevent corrosion and provide lubrication in these critical areas. More extensive maintenance may be required if the face driver has lost hydraulic oil due to wear in the internal seals. Refer to the hydraulic adjustment chart to determine if the drive pins are maintaining the correct standoff height. To make adjustments, remove the inlet screw and washer that seal the hydraulic chamber. With

the pistons and drive pins in full forward position, fill the chamber to over flowing with SAE 50 hydraulic oil. Allow all air bubbles to be displaced. Loosely replace the inlet screw and washer. Position the face driver in an arbor press with the drive pins against a flat plate. Displace excess oil from the chamber by compressing the drive pins to the appropriate dimension J in the hydraulic adjustment chart below. Tighten the inlet screw and washer. If hydraulic oil is visibly leaking or the drive pins fail to maintain the appropriate standoff height after service, the face driver should be removed from the machine immediately to prevent catastrophic failure.
