Environmental and operating conditions
Required ambient conditions and operating conditions
Incorrect ambient and operating conditions can make the product
unsafe, leading to the risk of serious injuries, considerable material
damage and/or a significant reduction to the product's life span.
•
Make sure that the product is used only in the context of its
defined application parameters,
•
Make sure that the product is a sufficient size for the
application.
•
Only use high-quality cooling emulsions with anti-corrosive
additives during processing.
Clamping force measurement
Depending on the operating conditions, the function and clamping
force must be checked after a certain period of operation
With the smallest possible actuating pressure (hydraulic cylinder),
the base jaws should move evenly. This method only provides a
limited indication and is not a substitute for measuring the
clamping force.
If the clamping force has dropped too much or if the base jaws and
piston no longer move properly, the chuck must be disassembled,
cleaned, and relubricated
Notes on safe operation
•
The machine spindle may only be started up when clamping
pressure has built up in the cylinder and clamping has followed
in the permitted work area.
•
Unclamping may only be possible when the machine spindle
has come to a standstill.
•
If the clamping energy fails, the workpiece must remain firmly
clamped until the spindle is shut down and the workpiece is
secured.
•
The technical safety requirements in the respective operating
instructions must be observed exactly.
