understanding level of the candidate.
3) The language errors such as grammatical, spelling errors should not be given more Importance (Not
applicable for subject English and Communication Skills.
4) While assessing figures, examiner may give credit for principal components indicated in the figure. The
figures drawn by candidate and model answer may vary. The examiner may give credit for any equivalent
figure drawn.
5) Credits may be given step wise for numerical problems. In some cases, the assumed constant values
may vary and there may be some difference in the candidate’s answers and model answer.
6) In case of some questions credit may be given by judgement on part of examiner of relevant answer
based on candidate’s understanding.
7) For programming language papers, credit may be given to any other program based on equivalent
concept.

Disadvantages :-
each
- Not Suitable for internal gears
Owing to the reciprocating action of cutter, there is no cutting on the return stroke in gear
shaper.
- The rate of production is lower than gear hobbing process due to periodical indexing hence
More machining time.

Advantages of PAM
Disadvantages of PAM
1. Due to high heat metallurgical change on the work piece surface.
2. Due to High heat input, water colling is needed.
3. Safety arrangements and equipments are necessary. It increases cost 04

6 a Centre-less grinding
This grinding machine is a production machine in which outside diameter of the workpiece is
ground. The workpiece is not held between centres but by a work support blade. It is rotated
by means of a regulating wheel and ground by the grinding wheel. In through-feed centre-less
grinding, the regulating wheel revolving at a much lower surface speed than grinding wheel
controls the rotation and longitudinal motion of the workpiece. The regulating wheel is kept
slightly inclined to the axis of the grinding wheel and the workpiece is fed longitudinally as
shown in Fig.
Truing is another operation performed with the purpose to restore the shape of the grinding
01+01
wheel that is out of shape due to wear and deformation. The purpose of truing operation can
be understood by referring to Fig. 2. Truing makes the periphery of the wheel concentric to
the central bore and also imparts a perfect form to the surface of the wheel. It is carried out
with the same tool but with lighter depth of cut.
“Maintenance Manual”:
d 04
When purchase a new vehicle then maintenance booklet or service booklet is provided by
manufacturer, called as maintenance manual. This booklet in printed format given the user of
the equipment about the preventive maintenance to be done with respect to time scale of that
machine tool. It is prepared on the vast experience of manufacturer and feedback collected
from the customers who had used that type of machine tool already. It is a systematically
maintenance of m/c tool in a right manner. Standardized maintenance procedure is adopted.

e Maintenance practice for coupling (2 marks for maintenance practice & 2 for
procedure) 04
They are used to connect the shaft ends together for transmitting torque or rotary motion
directly from one shaft to the other. The bearings are classified 1) Rigid coupling. 2) Flexible
coupling. e.g. flanged coupling, muff coupling, bushed-pin coupling, and Oldham coupling.
Maintenance procedure of coupling
Due to misalignment, loose bolts etc abnormal noise comes out.
Observe the vibrations due to run out.
Visual inspection for misalignment, wear out parts.
Checking the lubrication regularly and change oil after certain interval.
Prepare maintenance report for showing history of maintenance of each coupling
1. Any industry has to maintain certain maintenance records of the machine tools to meet
legal requirements. Sometimes court maters require accurate information about the
plant, machine tools, workers, supervisors if any accident happens.
3. It is also needed to meet certain financial needs such as preparation of budget for
maintenance & repair work for various machine tools for upcoming year and records

4. It provides a clear picture and up to date information regarding machine tools & their
conditions which will be helpful for purchase department for procurement of some
new equipments & tools well in advance to avoid delay if any.
