DESCRIPTION
Technical Description
This instructional kit provides the necessary material for students to learn systematically how a shaft is joined to a hub or a coupler in a professional way using taper keys. We recommend that the exercises are carried out in a workshop, as all preparations such as filing, drilling, countersinking and tapping must be carried out in a correct and proper manner by the student.
The material is clearly laid out on a plastic tray. The well-structured instructional material outlines all the necessary technical information and provides a step-by-step guide through the exercises.
Learning Objectives / Experiments
