Clutching Part:

 

        A pair of jaw clutches are the main components, because it is not only responsible for the power transmission, but also the manual-to-auto mechanism. If this pair of clutches can¡¦t fit together, it can damage the whole machine and also functionless.

        In order to make sure the clutches can join perfectly, the shape of the clutches are well-design,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the sharp-edge is design to make them self-engage.

 Procedure:

 

        First of all, use the lathe machine to make a round shape of the clutches, like this:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

        Then, because the shape of the clutch must be made precisely, using conventional machine is very difficult. So a CNC-Milling machine is used. And the tool path is first made for milling:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

        This is the manufacturing process carried out by the CNC-Milling machine:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

        After all, the final clutches are made:
