EATING THE SPINDLE CORE: When & Why
4 REASONS WHY CNC COMPANIES
“EAT THE CORE“
First let’s define the term “Eat the Core” and what it means with regard to cnc machine tool spindles. To “Eat The Core” simply means to not ship a broken spindle back to the OEM when ordering “Spindle Exchange”. End Users often do this for several reasons.
CNC Machine Tool OEMs are known for their high spindle repair pricing and the cost of new spindles are often excessive. Since CNC end users can order a “spindle exchange” for significantly less than a new spindle they do so to get back up and running immediately. And they do not have to buy a new spindle. So they decline to return their broken spindle to the OEM.
Yes, this costs them the amount of money they’d receive from sending the spindle back for the core refund but this is done to save money on the ability to work with any spindle repair company they select. It give them the freedom to make their own decisions and not be held captive exclusively to the OEM.
