Technical characteristics of the screw-cutting lathe IZH-250

Information about the manufacturer of the IZH-250 screw-cutting lathe

The manufacturer of the screw-cutting lathe model IZH-250 is Izhevsk Machine-Building , founded in 1807.
The history of machine tool building at the Izhevsk Machine-Building Plant begins on July 28, 1930, after the issuance of Order No. 181 on the creation of a machine tool department.

The first machine-tool production product at the plant was a lathe with an external transmission.

The most popular models of universal lathes produced at different times were “Udmurt”, “Udmurt-2” (161-AM), IZH-250, 1I611P, 1IS611V, 95TS, 250ITVM, 250ITVMF1 and the IT42 CNC lathe.

Design features of the screw-cutting lathe IZH-250

The spindle of the IZH-250 screw-cutting lathe is mounted on bronze split adjustable plain bearings and has 22 rotation speeds: 12 revolutions from the gearbox through a V-belt drive and 10 speeds through the gearbox in the headstock.

The end of the spindle is threaded M68x6. A standard Ø200 mm cartridge is installed on an intermediate (adapter) flange, which is screwed onto the thread until it stops. The diameter of the hole in the spindle is Ø 33 mm for a rod Ø 30 mm. Morse taper 5.

The gearbox is installed in the left cabinet of the machine and is a four-axis gearbox, receiving movement from a flange electric motor. From the gearbox through a V-belt transmission, the movement is transmitted to the spindle. A friction plate clutch and brake are located on the drive shaft of the gearbox. The clutch provides on/off rotation of the spindle, and the brake reduces the spindle rotation time.

The feedbox receives movement through the guitar from the headstock gearbox.

The thread pitch and feed speed are selected using the handles on the front cover of the feed box.

support receives movement from the drive shaft connected to the output shaft of the feed box. When cutting threads, the movement of the caliper is ensured by the lead screw, and the lead shaft should not rotate.

The caliper apron converts the rotational movement of the lead shaft or lead screw into longitudinal and transverse movement of the caliper. The apron also provides manual longitudinal movement of the caliper from the flywheel.

Description of electrical equipment operation

To make it easier to see the connections in Fig. Figure 5 shows a schematic diagram of the electrical equipment of the machine. The network is connected to the RST terminals of the terminal block. The machine is protected from short circuits by fuses. The pump motor and transformer are also protected by fuses.

The on position of the input switch is indicated by a red signal lamp. The auxiliary circuit of the contactor is designed for 24 V, which also powers the signal lamp. This voltage is generated by a 100 VA transformer TM. The transformer is protected from overload by two fuses. It is allowed to use an incandescent lamp up to 60 W, 24 V for lighting.

Starting the drive motor, as well as reversing, is carried out using the reversing switch FJ. The PSZ switch is used to start the coolant pumps.

If the voltage disappears, the motors are started again only if the FJ switch and the PSZ switch have been previously set to the “O” position.

Work, machine and service organs

When the electric motor is turned on, the spindle also starts. The spindle is stopped and reversed electrically by stopping and reversing the electric motor.

The permissible number of spindle reverses is as follows: at 90-130 rpm. spindle 600 reverses per hour, at 140-380 rpm. spindle – 400 reverses per hour.

Spindle speed – Two cases are possible;

• a) Speed ​​90-480 rpm. In this case, the handle for switching the spindle drive through overdrive or direct drive /18. rice. 8/ turn right. After this, by moving the reversing handle 36 to the left or right, turn on the forward or reverse direction of rotation of the engine and with it the spindle. Only after this is it possible to turn the speed adjustment knob 34 until the corresponding speed value on the spindle speed dial 33 aligns with the pointer,
• b) Required speed 630-315 rpm.

Move the handle for switching the spindle drive through overdrive or direct drive /18/ to the left, and then, after starting the engine, adjust the required number of revolutions.

The right position of the handle corresponds to lower spindle speeds /33/ on the dial, and the left position of the handle corresponds to higher speeds.

The handle for switching the spindle drive through overdrive or direct drive is allowed to be switched only when the spindle is stationary, and the handle for adjusting the speed of rotation - only when the spindle is rotating.

Reversing the spindle is carried out by reversing the motor /switch 36/.

The machine can be stopped so that the switch handle 36 is moved to the neutral position

Screw-cutting lathe 250ITVM

When equipping shops for turning operations, a 250ITVM screw-cutting lathe is used, and more modern modifications manufactured on this basis are also widely used. The developers of this multifunctional device are mechanical engineering specialists from Izhevsk. The IZH machine, the original marking of which was exactly this, is used for turning work in a chuck, collet, and also in centers.

Technical data

The 250ITVM screw-cutting lathe was developed for the purpose of processing small-sized workpieces. The technical characteristics of the machine completely determine its scope of application; the passport of this installation can be found in small workshops, school classrooms, and instrument-making shops.

Download the passport (operating instructions) of the 250ITVM machine

The model is able to guarantee high accuracy of the operations performed if the master performs a finishing fit or a semi-finishing procedure. When carrying out rough technological processing, the mechanisms of a lathe are subjected to maximum loads, which significantly reduces accuracy. The solution will be to use an improved modification of this series for these works.

Lathe IZH 250ITVM technical characteristics:

1. The permissible length of the workpiece is 500 mm.
2. The maximum diameter of the workpiece is 240 mm.
3. The rod used (located in the chuck) is up to 24 mm.
4. The cutter cross-section is 16x16 mm.
5. The end part of the spindle is 4.
6. Main drive rotation speed – 50-2500.
7. Accuracy indicator according to GOST - the model belongs to class “B”, high accuracy.
8. The total weight of the structure is 1180 kg.

Purpose and scope of the machine

There are hundreds of possible shapes and sizes of objects that can be processed. The metal cutting machine has been used for industrial purposes for over 50 years. During this time, he managed to establish himself on the positive side. The main distinctive features that make it popular are impeccable accuracy, versatility, reliability and safety.

Used for processing various parts, dimensions are indicated in the technical specifications of the device. It is used mostly in large and small-scale instrument-making and tool companies in the country.

Features and capabilities

Analyzing the drawings of the 250ITVM, you can notice a lot of docking points for additional modules. The passport of the improved model is characterized by superior technical parameters, which allows for work with maximum loads. The accuracy of this model is ensured by a special digital indicator, thanks to which there is no need to spend a lot of time for manual measurement of workpiece parameters, and the need for trial runs is also eliminated.

Machine appearance

The Izhevsk plant has provided the ability to connect highly efficient modules even to basic standard equipment; this feature is used during modernization.

The 250ITVM installation is equipped with a function for fixing the head of the cutting tool without clearance. By carving using this technology, maximum rigidity, stability and accuracy are maintained throughout the operation. During thread cutting, the main lead screw is automatically lubricated. Thanks to the unique design of the spindle module, instantaneous change of drive belts is possible, and disassembly of the hub unit is not required.

Device

The passport of the 250ITVM model contains information about the main operating modules of the installation - the drive that provides the rotational torque of the cutter; the second element is the electrical circuit. The latter is used primarily for repair work or as the main means of high-quality installation of additional modules.

Electrical diagram of the machine

The drive operates thanks to a 12-speed gearbox, which allows you to operate at the required speed with the possibility of pre-setting for subsequent start-up. V-belts have an important purpose, which in this unit can be changed without cumbersome disassembly of the main elements.

The smooth gear shift mechanism works according to the following scheme:

1. As the flywheel turns, the two selector discs shift.
2. Inside the disks, the combination of holes instantly changes, the resulting displacement fully corresponds to the intended gear that the worker wants to engage.
3. The holes correspond to locking levers that ensure the required speed is switched.
4. The handle is pulled back, which is accompanied by a slight braking of the gears, after which the gear changes.

Design features of the structure

The 250ITVM series turning machine has quite unique design drawings. The structure of the machine allows us to highlight a lot of technological features:

1. Changes in feed parameters and current spindle speed are made over a wide range, which increases functionality.
2. The apron of this model is equipped with a well-thought-out stopping mechanism; thanks to this innovation in the structure, the main elements of the device (gearbox, drive, electrical circuits) are protected from loads.
3. The basis for adjusting the spindle operation is preselective control technology. Its essence lies in the advance configuration of this node for the next time it is put into operation.
4. The cutting of several thread options is determined not by the sequential change of gears, but by the versatility of the gearbox.
5. The resistance parameters of the bed have extremely high numerical values. During manufacturing, the main material for this part is a special grade of chromium-nickel cast iron.

It is possible to regulate feeds on the machine using a lightweight scheme - a special handle is used. The feed direction completely corresponds to the movement of the handle.

Options, descriptions

DESIGN FEATURES:
A wide range of speeds and feeds ensures productive processing with good surface quality. Preselective control of spindle speeds allows you to prepare the subsequent switching on while the machine is running and quickly implement it at the right time. Mnemonic feed control is provided by one handle, the direction of activation of which coincides with the direction of the selected movement of the support with the cutting head.

Backlash-free fixation of the cutting head ensures high rigidity and precision of installation. The lead screw is automatically lubricated when cutting threads. The design of the spindle unit allows you to quickly change drive belts without disassembling the unit. The bed of machines 250 ITVM.01, 250 ITVM F1, 250 ITVM.03 is made of chromium-nickel cast iron, the guides are hardened by high-frequency currents and ground. The stopping mechanism located in the apron protects the feed mechanisms from overload and also allows you to work against a hard stop when turning.

The main movement is driven by an electric motor through a twelve-speed gearbox, V-belts and poly-V-belts. When the flywheel is turned, a certain combination of holes is created in the two selector discs for the fixing fingers of the levers that switch the gear blocks. After this, pulling the handle towards you first slows down the rotating gears, and then switches them. The headstock contains a take-up pulley, a spindle, a 1:8 ratio, and a thread-pitch increasing link. The machine model 250 ITVMF1 is equipped with a digital display system (DDS).

The equipment of the SDI machine allows:
• display dimensions in mm or inches with discreteness from 0.1 to 100 microns;
• carry out linear compensation for errors in the mechanical elements of the machine, for example, wear of guides;
• introduce compensation for tool wear.

To accurately measure transverse movements, a vernier mechanism is provided, allowing movements of 0.005 mm/rev. The feed box provides a wide range of cut thread sizes, longitudinal and transverse feeds. To cut precise threads, a direct connection of the lead screw to the guitar is provided, bypassing the feed box mechanism.

The closed-type apron provides longitudinal and transverse feeds of the caliper manually and mechanically from the lead roller, as well as thread cutting using a lead screw. Feed control is carried out with one handle. The direction in which the handle is turned on coincides with the direction in which the caliper moves. The presence of a locking device eliminates the possibility of simultaneous activation of the lead screw and the lead roller, as well as longitudinal and transverse feeds. The machine is equipped with electric motors and equipment designed for a voltage of 380 V three-phase alternating current with a frequency of 50 Hz, a local lighting voltage of 36 V. The machine is connected to the electrical network using a packet switch.

How used is the model today?

Despite the rather “ancient” year of launch into mass production, the IZH 250ITVM passport is still of the old USSR type, but its performance is equal to modern modifications of similar equipment. Today it is supplied to private workshops, school classrooms and secondary construction education institutions without major differences from the original model.

Comparing the design of the machine with alternative multifunctional units, the old IZH 250 loses in many respects, but even such competition cannot completely suppress the demand for these models. The 250ITVM passport does not have superior characteristics, but the accuracy of work on this device can amaze even an experienced modern master of parts processing.

The model lags behind its competitors in terms of ergonomics, number of manufactured parts, lack of computer control and other indicators. But every review of devices capable of thread cutting cannot do without this basic representative of the class.

Operating rules and tips

The kinetic circuit of the device operates stably thanks to a 12-speed 3 kW drive. Speed ​​switching occurs thanks to a flywheel connected to the selector discs. The discs are responsible for the correct placement of holes and levers for a specific gear.

The operation of the handle is very similar in functionality to the operation of the clutch pedal in any car. Before changing speed, the handle is pulled back, which slows down the gears. When the overall speed decreases, the levers of the next gear fall into the pre-arranged holes in the discs and instantly pick up speed.

Note: the operating instructions include an important addition - the machine apron is equipped with a special lock that limits the simultaneous launch of the roller with the lead screw. Likewise, longitudinal movement is blocked if transverse movement of the workpiece is used, and vice versa.

Tips and useful recommendations for effective work on the 250ITVM machine:

1. It is necessary to master the functional features and capabilities of each machine model, since in different modifications the same operations are performed by different modules. Care must be taken when considering the types of equipment on which the 5.5 kW drive is installed.
2. Connection to the installation network occurs by installing a specialized package-type switch.
3. There is a limitation on the power of the electrical network. Standard 220 V networks cannot provide the machine with the required amount of energy. The installation operates exclusively on three-phase 380 V networks.

After purchasing and installing the 250ITVM turning equipment model, the impression of insufficient functionality will not appear. The device is assembled as reliably as possible, which is confirmed by its weight and simultaneous simplicity of design. This “outdated” machine can perform precise thread cutting on small workpieces, while maintaining productivity at a sufficient level.

The only negative is that the model cannot be used under excessive loads and mass production. If processing is performed frequently at maximum speed, any of the main parts of the installation may fail.

Machine device

Electrical equipment of lathe IZH250

The frame is made by casting, it has reinforcements in the form of a U-shaped rib and is installed on a durable stand. The material for the frame is chromium-nickel cast iron. The bed is equipped with 4 guides (two are prismatic, the rest are flat). The latter are subjected to high-frequency surface hardening and grinding. Inside the cabinet there is an electric drive that rotates the gearbox, an automatic lubrication station and a coolant supply system (cutting fluid).

In accordance with the kinematic diagram of the machine, the gearbox plays the role of a gearbox driven by an electric motor mounted on the flange. To fix the gearbox in the cabinet there is an intermediate bracket.

The gearbox has a speed pre-selection device. This procedure is carried out without stopping the machine. The handle turns the flywheel connected to two disks, with the help of which the number of revolutions is selected. The discs form a set of pin holes with levers that flip the gear blocks. To stop the rotation of the gear wheels (up to a speed of less than 100 rpm), this handle is slightly pulled towards itself (a feeling of resistance), and a pause is maintained. Then, with an effort in the same direction (towards you until failure), the gear is engaged. At low speeds, this procedure is done with one movement of the handle.

To make it easier to transfer or change the drive belt (without having to disassemble the entire assembly), its pulley is shifted to the left half of the tailstock housing. The base for mounting the latter is a pin installed at the bottom of the spindle. This element controls the spindle assembly itself in case of heating of the latter and facilitates control of the position of its rotation axis. The rotational torque to the machine spindle comes directly from the pulley or through the selection gears. In front of the headstock body there is a shift knob between the gear coupling and the gearbox. The block will not allow you to turn them on at the same time. To avoid breaking the gears, do not move the handle until the spindle assembly comes to a complete stop. The design of the headstock includes a link that increases the thread pitch.

Using the feed box, thread cutting processes are adjusted or feeds are switched during turning. The size of all transverse feeds is half the size of similar longitudinal feeds. The gearbox rotates the input shaft of the specified box through a replaceable set of gears (thread) or a belt (all other operations). Feed switching at spindle speeds of less than 100 rpm is allowed on the fly. If the speed is higher, then only by coasting (reducing the speed) of the spindle by briefly turning off the rotation on the machine using the provided handle.

The guitar is mounted on the left end surface of the headstock. Due to the presence of blocking, it is impossible to engage the gear drive together with the belt drive.

You can lock the tailstock by turning its handle. The clamping force can be adjusted using nuts. An additional screw will contribute to the reliability of the clamp. Grooving short cones on the machine is made easier by the fact that it is possible to move the tailstock body relative to the axis of the machine centers. The displacement is made by no more than + - (10 mm) with a special screw. To control the horizontal position of the axis of the machine centers (relative to the bed guides), the corresponding bosses are aligned on the body and the tailstock tray. The quill is fixed using its handle.

The main functions of the apron include: implementation of the feed movement (longitudinal or transverse) for the caliper through the running shaft; cutting threaded surfaces - from the lead screw. Therefore, the apron is equipped with 4 couplings, which include direct or reverse feeds. These models of machines do not have accelerated cutting of the cutter.

During operation of the machine, the cross-shaped support moves along the workpiece using bed guides, and across it along similar elements of the carriage. Longitudinal movements are carried out manually or mechanically. On top of the caliper there is a main tool holder with four places for the tools. On request, an additional rear single tool holder for the transverse carriage can be supplied.

To cover the cutting zone from flying chips, a protective fence with an opening made of durable transparent polymer was installed. It is mounted using a height-adjustable stand. When cutting workpieces made of brittle material, an additional protective screen is used, which is attached to the main one on the right.

Review of the universal lathe IZH250

The IZH-250 machine for turning work was assembled for a long time at the machine-building plant in the city of Izhevsk, and is used in small and large manufacturing enterprises. It was produced in several variations. The main task is to produce an extensive range of turning operations in collet and jaw type chucks. It is also actively used for various types of carving.

Possibilities and varieties

Izhmash engineers tried to modernize the equipment to cover a wider range of work, so they released the turning unit in 3 versions:

• ITPM – specializes in low-precision operations;
• ITVMF1 – model with digital indicators;
• ITVM03 – characterized by an increased center-to-center gap.

To perform turning operations with increased loads, it is recommended to use the 250ITP version of the machine.

The ITVMF1 model, thanks to the digital display, which facilitates the turner’s work in determining the geometric dimensions of the workpiece, is characterized by increased productivity. This modification has a number of other advantages:

• no need to remember the revolutions of the lomb and count some parameters;
• compensation for errors in the interaction of elements;
• reduction of wear of cutting components during operation.

All these processes occur automatically, without the participation of a turner.

The IZH-250 machine makes it possible to carry out various types of threads with high precision, so this unit is in great demand for such activities.

Technical capabilities of the machine model IZH-250

The IZH-250 machine was created by Izhmash specialists for processing small-sized parts. That is why instrument-making and tool factories were actively equipped with it.

The machine of this model is capable of providing high precision processing for a long time if semi-finishing and finishing turning operations are performed on it. To carry out more crude technological operations, during which significant loads are placed on the unit components, it is better to use a modernized version of this machine model - 250ITP.

At one time, the machine model IZH-250 was produced in several design options:

• ITVM03 – unit with increased distance between centers;
• ITVMF1 – a machine additionally equipped with a digital display;
• ITPM is a model used primarily for turning operations that do not require high precision.

IZH-250 controls

It is worth mentioning separately about the modernized model of the IZH-250 machine - ITVMF1. The latter, due to its digital display, allows processing with high productivity. The operator working on such a unit requires much less time to measure the geometric parameters of the part and perform test passes.

Digital display provides this device with a number of other significant advantages: there is no need to remember dial speeds and calculate certain parameters; Linear compensation for inaccuracies in the interaction of machine components, as well as wear of the cutting tool during processing, is carried out automatically, without human intervention.

The technical capabilities of the machine model IZH-250 make it possible to use it to cut various types of threads (metric, inch, modular) with high accuracy and productivity, so they try to perform such a technological operation on this particular unit.

Equipment technical parameters

The lathe has a number of design features:

• equipped with a special mechanism that allows turning and at the same time protecting working units from overloads;
• During operation, the lead screw is automatically lubricated;
• spindle and feed speeds can vary over a wide range;
• to replace belts, the spindle assembly does not need to be disassembled;
• the cutting head is very precisely and firmly fixed, which makes it possible to achieve high precision thread performance;
• changing thread types is done due to the versatility of the gearbox, and not by changing gears.

The machine body is made of a durable type of cast iron, and the guides are ground and hardened using high-frequency currents.

The feed control on the presented turning unit is carried out using a handle and is carried out according to the principle when its movement coincides with the movement of the feed element.

The table shows the technical characteristics of the IZH-250 screw-cutting lathe.

Nuances of operation and passport

The machine should be operated in strict accordance with the equipment instructions. The adjustment must be carried out by a specialist.

1. Electrical equipment operates from a three-phase electrical network with a voltage of 380 V.
2. Connection to the network is made through a batch and circuit breaker.
3. In a number of models in the series under consideration, the speed is not adjusted by the gearbox. To do this, the power of the supplied electrical signal changes. In this case, electric motors of increased power (up to 5.5 kW) are installed.

The feed box provides wide possibilities for varying the feed and thread parameters. To use them correctly, you must use standard lever installation tables. The accuracy of the lateral movements of the tool is increased by the vernier (the accuracy increases to 0.005 mm/rev).

Purpose and description of the unit

The screw-cutting lathe 250ITVM.01 is distinguished by a decent set of functions, as well as a reasonable price. This unit easily turns small metal workpieces. To maintain its high processing accuracy longer, do not use it for large series of parts and, in particular, for their pre-processing. For such processes, the line includes a 250 ITPM ​​unit, which is produced to order.

The specified equipment was produced by the IzhmashStanko machine tool plant (Izhevsk). Units, components and spare parts for them are available for sale in full. Moreover, their cost is reasonable.

The entire series of machines we are considering was developed on the basis of the structurally and technically successful design of the IZH1I611P unit. They perform various types of turning operations with fixation of the part with a chuck, collet clamp or rotating centers, and cut inch, metric and modular threads.

The main drive is made by an electric motor operating on a V-belt drive (single and poly V-belt) or a gear reducer (12-speed).

The following is mounted in the headstock housing:

• Spindle assembly combined with input pulley.
• Sets of gears (two) - overkill (with a gear ratio of 1: and a link that increases the thread pitches.

The productivity of work on the machine can be increased by eliminating the test run with subsequent measurements of parts. This innovation is implemented in the IZH250ITVMF1 lathe. For this purpose, it has a digital display device (DRO). It greatly simplifies the work of a specialist in calculating the cutting depth, the corresponding number of dial revolutions, and recording them on the screen. The DRO helps ensure the machine has high processing accuracy due to:

• Reflections of size values ​​(in mm, inches) with a resolution of 0.1 - 100 microns.
• Taking into account compensation amendments that take into account the wear of the rubbing pairs of the machine unit and the edge of the cutting tool.

Precise counting for cross feed (up to 0.005 mm/rev) is carried out by a vernier-type mechanism. This is a flywheel with a vernier scale. The feed box is able to change the speed of the cutter during threading, turning and other operations. And it does this within a fairly wide range. Threads are cut with high precision provided that the lead screw is directly connected to the guitar (without the participation of a feed box).

How used is the model today?

Serial production of the IZH-250 fuel assembly began in 1964, but even today the machine has not lost its relevance. The base model has undergone virtually no changes.

Modern technologies have made it possible to improve the quality of equipment assembly, which has increased the processing accuracy and durability of the equipment. At the same time, the distinctive feature of the machine is its low cost, versatility, ease of setup and operation.
