MACHINING SPLINES ON A TUBULAR MEMBER

摘要

Apparatus for machining splines on the internal surface of a tubular member comprising cutter means for forming the splines on the internal surface; a carrier for the tubular member for enabling the tubular member to be moved in an axial direction relative to the cutter means; and means for angularly indexing the cutter means relative to the tubular member whereby splines at angularly predetermined intervals can be provided around the interval circumference of the tubular member.
