what to look out for if your cnc maching is breaking down
Here are a few signs your unit may need to be repaired soon.
- If you’re noticing finishing issues on your machined parts, that can indicate wear on your spindle.
- If you notice, wear on the spindle mouth. You can check this by using a toolholder and bluing. You can also check the runout with T.I.R.
- Check for signs of damage and wear on the inside of the toolholder. Fretting on the inside is the most common sign of wear and indicates a spindle issue.
- Unusual Vibration means spindle damage. Typically, this indicates bad bearings, so check the lubrication.
- Unusual Noise coming from the spindle itself is a clear sign of spindle damage.
- An increased temperature means spindle damage. The spindle should run cool, so the spindle should not become extremely hot even during operation.
