The use of a_numerically controlled mining and profiling machine has proven. practicable and feasible in the machining of dies, templates, forgings, and Elox Electrodes of aircraft quality. Compared to conventional methods of processing the major benefits attained are:na. Closer tolerances ( ± .0005") are obtained through numerical control.nb. Fine finishing of die surfaces requiring little or no polishing.nc. Exact duplication of a die to the original dimension when a re-sinking operation is required, by use of the original tape.nThis evaluation program developed the use of and evaluated the operation of a Kearney & Trecker Profiler in conjunction with the Bendix Corporation Compac 01 numerical Control.
