DeVlieg 4B-60 Spiramatic: NC vs Dial Input Technical Article
Technical article from Metalworking magazine (February 1962) examining the trade-offs between numerical control (NC) and dial input systems for DeVlieg 4B-60 Spiramatic Jigmill machines equipped with Diatrol controls. The piece analyzes production efficiency gains—NC systems deliver up to 25% improvement in cycle time—against the capital investment differential (NC-equipped machines at $75,000 versus $50,000 for dial input variants). Documents real-world short-run precision machining for aerospace and missile component manufacturers, with emphasis on tight angular tolerances in gearbox assemblies. Covers high-precision techniques for nodular iron, high-strength steel, titanium, and magnesium castings and forgings, offering practical guidance for machine shops evaluating automation investment for specialized production runs.

Microbore Flash-Change Tool Holders Technical Manual
Technical manual for Devlieg Microbore Flash-Change tool holders, a comprehensive workshop reference for machinists and tool engineers. Details four distinct mounting configurations: NMTB taper shank, Morse taper shank, flange mount, and threaded spindle attachment systems. Provides precise dimensional specifications for sizes 30FC, 40FC, and 50FC models, including taper socket geometry, set screw torque values, drive key engagement details, and hex key sizing for assembly and disassembly. Covers maintenance procedures for taper socket wipers and calibrated torque wrench techniques essential for achieving proper tool holder clamping force. Functions as both a service manual and installation guide for correct setup and long-term reliability of precision tool holder systems.

Microbore MB-121 Boring Head Technical Data
Technical documentation for the DEVLIEG Microbore MB-121 Adjustable Boring Head, a precision production tool employing micrometer vernier adjustment for accurate, repeatable tool positioning. The manual details the adjustable boring head assembly with tool slide capability ranging from zero to 1/4 inch off center, supplied with choice of straight, taper, or flanged shanks to accommodate various spindle configurations. Includes the standard set of eight boring bars providing coverage across the 1/4 inch to 1 inch boring range, essential for typical production work. The documentation also presents comprehensive production examples demonstrating real-world machine shop applications: magneto housing, main bearing housing for washing machine frames, conveyor transmission housing, dynomotor end bracket, fan housing, and combustion chamber cover. For each application, the manual specifies part geometry, material selection, the specific production machine tools employed, and the machined surfaces with their dimensional tolerances and finish requirements, making it valuable for both setup and troubleshooting in the shop.
