takes place during the forward stroke of the ram. The backward stroke remains idle <strong>and</strong> no<br />

cutting takes place during this stroke. The feed is given <strong>to</strong> the workpiece <strong>and</strong> depth of cut<br />

is adjusted by moving the <strong>to</strong>ol downward <strong>to</strong>wards the workpiece. The time taken during the<br />

idle stroke is less as compared <strong>to</strong> forward cutting stroke <strong>and</strong> this is obtained by quick return<br />

mechanism. The cutting action <strong>and</strong> functioning of clapper box is shown in Fig.23.4 during<br />

forward <strong>and</strong> return stroke.<br />
