How are spherical rod ends manufactured?
I don't know how they seem to fabricate perfect spheres and then have the races installed around the sphere. Or is the sphere machined after it's installed?
Any insight would be helpful!
For ball manufacture using metals its typically:
use a rod or wire stock they plunge the rod/wire into a hard metal die and deform it into a spherical shape (die is WC or something like it). As they do this they spin the die and cut off the rod/wire with a shaped cutter to get the back half of the ball shape
Then the balls go into a grooved double disk grinder arrangement where two parallel flat grinding disks come together and grind the balls as they move along the grooves.
This gets the balls fairly "ball like" with some deformities
They they spend several days in various abrasive baths of grit to get fully round and smooth
The races are machined directly with grinding wheels of various grits to bring to full polish and perfect size
To assemble they sort the balls and races into categories and fit them more perfectly. Its very difficult to make perfectly the same parts each time, its easier to just sort them into groups and fit those groups together.
