TZ 200.02

Bearing Housing, Casting

Technical Description

A bearing housing made from sand-cast aluminium is used in teaching as an example to illustrate the subject of cast parts in technical drawing in a detailed and practical way. TZ 200.02 comprises two elements: an unmachined cast part, professionally 'polished', as it is delivered from the foundry; and a post-machined cast part additionally presented in the form of a cutaway model. This enables the entire process, from the shaping to the cutting, to be covered in the lesson. Optimal learning is established when one model is used with two/three students.

Learning Objectives / Experiments

Technical drawing:
- Drawings of cast parts and their special features: machining
allowances, mould drafts, shrinkage, sectional views
- From the cast part to the finished part: production-oriented and
standard dimensioning for subsequent machining
Technology:
- Manufacture of cast parts by the sand-casting method; manufacturing
methods
- Machine and tool selection, length measurement exercises - machine
elements and their function

Features

* Two practice models for technical drawing of cast
parts₁
* From cast part to finished machine part
