5. Residual risks
The system machine tool – collet chuck – workpiece is mainly influenced by the properties of the
tool (shape, weight, unbalance, material, etc.) as well as the cutting parameters which can cause
residual risks. Those remaining dangers must be considered by the worker and eliminated by
appropriate means.
6. Maintenance
Accurate and regularly maintenance (quarter annually) increases the natural life of the QUADRO®
dead length collet chuck. Please keep the following advices:
-
Clean the chuck frequently, especially when changing the collet.
-
Make sure the collet-carrier is clean and free of dirt and chips. Dirt reduces the runout accuracy
and reduces the clamping force.
-
Slightly greased collets increase the clamping force and reduce wear
-
Do not use polar or ester-containing solvents to clean the spindle and the collet chuck.
Sealings and the rubber-bonded parts could be damaged.
-
Avoid cleaning with compressed-air gun.
-
On disassembly, check for cracks and other damages. Renew, if necessary.
-
After a crash, a complete check is essential. You will find spare parts on page 10.
-
Replace damaged parts only by original spare-parts. Otherwise guarantee is expired.
-
Store the collet chuck clean and protect it from dust or similar influences. Spray it slightly with
anti-corrosion agent. Choose a dry place to store.
To provide longterm function and accuracy, depending on application conditions, it is
necessary to disassemble the chuck and to clean it completely. Check all parts for cracks or
damages. Regrease before reassembly.
Remember that your chuck should operate precisely and reliably.
