I have this job about twice a year to machine the end of the bolt as in the picture. Approximately 100 at a time. It was simple enough to do on my lathe. But now the lathe has been sold.
How would you machine this bolt with only a manual or cnc milling machine? I do have a 4th axis and a 5c cam collet fixture.
If at all possible the setup and run has to be simple and easy. The tolerances are very loose. 3-5 thou.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks to the membership in advance.
I don't know how to add pictures to my post. I only have this link.
