Machining Considerations

Machined Surfaces on the Pintle Socket

The drawing to the left shows two surfaces on the pintel socket that require rough and finish machining.
  • These surfaces act either as joining surfaces or as bearing surfaces.

The drawing shows the selected machined surfaces with original as-cast wall thickness including machine stock.

Which surface/s (Surface A or B) should be analyzed and redesigned to keep centerline shrinkage away from the finished machine surfaces?
