12.8.5. Precautions
Follow these precautions to take care of the
milling spindle
, which is a high precision unit, that can get
damaged by careless use.
Supervision of the milling spindle power
Machine Panel
->
Spindle Power
The MultiCUT-HP spindle is prepared for continuous operation between 0 – 100 % Watt.
A power load of 70-80% will allow good working conditions for the
Spindle Motor
.
Too high
Spindle Power
consumption indicates critical conditions for the motor and immediate actions
should be taken:
1.
Use correct and sharp milling bit.
2.
Use correct RPM for the actual bit and material.
3.
Reduce the X/Y speed.
If the motor is running above a critical limit, the execution will stop and a message is displayed.
Use of non-balanced bits
One-flute bits are by nature
Non-Balanced
, and
may destroy the
Spindle
if used wrong.
Therefore, one-flute bits with cutting diameters
above 4 mm, 5/32 inch, must be run with a
maximum RPM of 40.000 (MultiCUT-HP)
Keep distance d small
For best performance and minimum wear, do not
let the bit stick out more than necessary.
Use bits with short cutting lengths for thin
materials.
