All About Slotting Machine(Slotter)


Slotting machine(Slotter)

About Slotting Machine is similar to say about Vertical Axis Shaper Machine.The Main Difference between a shaper and a slotter machine is the direction of the cutting movement, tool moving into vertical direction then in horizontal direction.

The Slotter Machine has a vertical ram and a hand or power operated rotary table, in so many machines , ram travel may be inclined as much as 10degree to either side of the vertical position when cutting inclined surfaces

Stroke of Ram in Slotting Machines is little smaller then in shaper machines to measure for the kind of work that is handled in them.

Advantages of Slotter Machines

Internal Machining of blind holes, slotter machines required for machining in internal surfaces such as splines, keyways,various slots and grooves and teeths.Machining of die, punches, straight and curved slots, cutting of teeth on ratchet or gear rings which require primarily rotary feed.

Main Structure of Slotter Machine

Base of Slotting Machine: Base of slotting machine is known as bed and is heavy cast iron construction. It acts as a support system for the whole upper part of machines such as column, driving mechanism ram, table and all other fittings.

Column of Slotting Machine: It is Also made of cast iron, it acts as housing for the complete driving mechanism, its front face has guideways for the reciprocatory ram.

Table of Slotting Machine : on Slotting Machines, a circular table is provided, however, in some heavy duty slotters, such as puncher slotter, either a rectangular or circular table can be mounted.on the top of the table are provided T-slots to clamp the work or facilitate the use of fixtures etc.

Ram Of Slotting Machine: It moves in vertical direction between the vertical guideways provided in front of the column. The ram supports the tool head to which the tool is attached, the cutting action takes place during the downward movement of the ram.

Size And Specifications of Slotting Machine

The complete specifications of a 300 mm stroke slotting machine are as unders

Stroke Maximum- 300mm,Stroke Minimum- 0 mm, Height Between table and head = 450mm, Maximum diameter accommodated when machining at centre=900 mm , Diameter of the table=500 mm, Traverse of table , Longitudinal=450 mm, Traverse of Table, Transverse=350mm, Face of Head=575 mmx 250 mm, Height overall= 2000 mm, Length of bed=1375mm,width of bed-412mm,Heaight of Bed= 575mm,Height of Head=1275 mm, Belt size=75mm,H.p Required =2 H.P


300 mm Slotting Machine

Mechanism of Slotting Machine : Slotted Disc Mechanism,Variable speed reversible motor drive, Hydraulic Drive, Slotted Link Drive
The Ram of slotting Machine carrying the tool moves vertically up and down and cuts only in the downward stroke, The Return stroke of slotting Machine on the upward stroke of slotting Machine is complete a shorter period of time then the cutting stroke

Esskay Lathe & Machines are the Manufacturers of slotting machines, Slotting machines in india, slotting machine price is very completetive than other manufacturers, we are manfacturing slotting machines in Batala,cnc slotting machines in india, All types of slotting machines, Slotting machine manufacturers in india,

Types of Slotting Machines(Slotter)

Puncher Slotter : puncher slotter is used for removing large amount of metal from heavy work which has been forged , stamped or sawn roughly to shaper

General Production Slotter : General Production Slotter machine is used for general production work.

Precision Tool Room Slotters : Precision General Tool Room Slotter Machine is used for tool room work where accuracy in most cases is of paramount importance.

Cnc Slotting Machine: CNC slotting machine is new technology in the field of slotting machine, ram is moving down ward but table movement are controlled by cnc controller to operate the machine. Esskay Lathe & Machine Tools are only the manufacturer of cnc slotting machines in india

Use of Slotting Machines to Make Internal Keyways: Beneficial for Automobile Industries

We Esskay Lathe and Machine tools in Batala offers a Wide Range of Slotting Machines Slotting Machines provided with Stroke adjustment Facility  varies from different sizes that is up-to the size of machine like  if machine capacity is 300 mm then adjustment can be done from 10 mm to 300 mm .

 We are making slotting machines from 200 mm to 900 mm. we are Manufacturing cnc slotting machine with table size 1500 mm and stroke capacity 600 mm , weight of machine is 10 tons, india’s Biggest slotting machine ever.

We Esskay  Lathe and Machine Tools provides continuous  stroke in our all size of slotting machines and each stroke working on main gear teeth. With the help of continuous stroke, gears   have to rigid and strong, we have done nitrite treatment on Gears, and it helps to achieve accuracy of the component.

Price of slotting machines varies from size to size, we are slotting machine manufacturers in batala , we are biggest slotting machine manufacturer in punjab,

we are using  Hellical gears in our slotting machine. It is made from GCI-25 Grade casting. With the help of helical gears we achieve more precise work. It prevent breaking of gears again and again,

Benefits of Helical Gears:

  • For silent and smooth operation
  • Use of helical gears reduces the noise level
  • Double Load taking capacity and long life
  • Suitable in rough work
  • No need to change in 10 years

Y- Axis – main slide are the important part of slotting machine.  Accuracy and efficiency depends on  Y-Axis. So our expert engineers put their best efforts while constructing this machine.

Features of our Stroke Ram / Spindle:

  • Our stroke ram is 900 mm long.
  • It is made from CI material with proper grinding and finishing.
  • Straightness and parallelism of our stroke ram is 10 micron.
  • For higher and perfect accuracy, we are checking and testing each piece with straight edge.
  • One important feature of our Spindle is interchangeable. Sometimes because of damage and other problems, customer requires that parts. So at that time they can interchange that part easily and quickly.

Base of the Slotting machine directly affects the rigidity and vibration of the machine..

Maximum cutting capacity in MS Material is 12 mm by Foam tool.

We are testing and working the machine after checking base level as a right.

We are using Gun Metal Bush to connect the road. It is chromed nut, so it is dust proof.

Benefit of Using Gun Metal Bush :

Sometimes when oil gets over in pump or  operator forget to lubricate oil, there is no chance of any damage in the base because of that nylon nut. Even it also increase life of Connecting road.

We always think  that machine should be reach safely at customer’s floor. So considering transport problems and customers convenience, we are giving slinging hook inbuilt with machine. Purpose to give such option is to transist machine safely and without any damage. Our slinging hook carries weight upto 10000 kgs kg easily.

Different spindle size differs with different material. It differs with material, weight and size of the job. So considering this we have given an option of the 3-speed pulley in our machine so the user can operate it at three different steps.

Speed can be varied for efficient working as per the weight and size of the job, material type of the job.
