Deburring process development is an iterative, learning task. The following table is presented to assist in the
solving deburring problems.
6.1 Troubleshooting
Deburring process development is an iterative, learning task. The following table is presented to assist in
solving deburring problems.
Table 6.1—Troubleshooting
Symptom
Cause
Resolution
Bur wear
Hard work material
Use better grade burr material or add coating (TiAlN).
Too heavy a cut
Decrease width of the cut. Make multiple passes.
Feed rate is too slow
Increase feed rate
Bur breakage
Too heavy a cut
Decrease width of the cut. Make multiple passes.
Deflection at a corner
Climb mill or do not begin path at sharp corner.
Impacting the part
Decrease the feed rate at contact. Enter the part at an angle.
Unequal compliance
The regulator is
defective.
Replace the regulator.
Worn ring cylinder
Replace the ring cylinder, refer to
Pivot pin(s) are worn
Replace pivot pin(s). Refer to
Compliance preload
screw is not set
correctly.
Reinstall the set screw. Refer to
Poor finish on the
work piece
Feed rate is too fast.
Reduce the feed rate.
The bur is worn.
Inspect the bur. If worn, replace. Refer to
Motor bearings are
worn.
Inspect spindle shaft. If the shaft feels loose or has play, replace the
turbine motor. Refer to
Section 6.2.2—Turbine Motor Replacement.
Bur is chattering
during cut.
The feed rate is too fast.
Reduce the feed rate.
Lack of the rigidity
Increase the radial compliance pressure.
Too heavy a cut
Decrease width of the cut. Make multiple passes.
Improper bur selection
Choose a bur that is designed for work material. Refer to
Section 4.5—Cutter Operation and Bur Selection
.
The bur is worn
Inspect bur; if worn, replace. Refer to
The motor bearings are
worn
Inspect the spindle shaft. If the shaft feels loose or has play,
replace the turbine motor. Refer to
Secondary burrs are
created on the work
piece after a cut.
Incorrect feed rate
Reduce the feed rate.
Too heavy a cut
Decrease width of the cut. Make multiple passes.
Improper bur selection
Choose a bur that is designed for work material. Refer to
Section 4.5—Cutter Operation and Bur Selection
.
The bur is worn.
Inspect bur. If worn, replace. Refer to
The motor bearings are
worn.
