Meca universal dividing head D3627

[H D FanarofParticipant @hdfanarof31451]

I’ve recently acquired this dividing head and am looking for for any literature or information related to it.
In particular I’d like an exploded view/parts list and user manual.

I’ve not managed to find any specific information online.
Any help would be appreciated.

If you know how many turns of the handle to turn the spindle one revolution, there is a handy calculator here, it has two predefined heads or you can enter custom values. This will at least give you the tables needed for dividing.

Thanks.
That’s good information.

I really am looking for a parts list with exploded drawings, ideally.

Hi HD I can't find any thing about your dividing head as you. I suggest it may be a badged type for a specific machine etc and some pictures may help with identification.

It will be the same inside as most other dividing heads. They are a pretty basic mechanism. Once you have the ratio of number of turns of the handle to one turn of the chuck, the charts for what hole circles to use for what divisions is all the same.

Made in Spain, it might be a copy of or similar to some other high-end European DHs. Look at Hofmanns for starter to see if any look familiar.
