Project 2.3.

1 – Arbor Press
Introduction
Have you ever ridden on a skateboard or strapped on a pair of in-line skates? If so,
what are those devices that exist between the wheels and the axles that allow the
wheels to spin, and the axles to remain stationary? If you are thinking wheel
bearings, then you are correct. Wheel bearings fit snugly inside the bored holes of
the wheels and are held in place by friction. In fact, they are pressed into position
with devices that are similar to an arbor press.

An arbor press is a device that is used to press objects together or force them apart.
Typical arbor press applications include pressing bearings into gears or pulleys,
pressing gears or pulleys onto shafts, and pressing alignment pins into fixtures. The
arbor press contained in this project is powered by an air-actuated rotary cylinder,
while the lever-type version is powered by the user’s muscles.

Being able to read dimensioned drawings of an object is an important engineering


skill. Understanding how to transpose these drawings into computer models of parts
is also important. As you have learned in previous lessons, a sketch serves as the
foundation for all the technical work that comes afterward. Being able to perform this
technical work is an obvious must. Relaying this technical work correctly is a skill
that allows a group of people to function as a design team.

Your teacher will demonstrate where to access the hardware and provide you
with the above listed parts needed for the Arbor Press Assembly.

Procedure
This project will provide you the opportunity to further develop your modeling skills,
as well as your ability to use the computer as an efficient communication tool.

What you learned in the past two lessons will be systematically applied to this
project.

In this project, you will model the eight remaining parts needed for the Arbor Press
Assembly. The parts with the dimensions are listed below.
