    Spindle Maintenance

    Spindle Maintenance

    (Ⅰ)

     

    For ensuring long-life and more stable to use cnc spindle, please pay attention to spindle maintenance as below:

     

    1.    Change the water every three days;

    2.    Lubricate cnc router spindle regularly;

    3.    Keep bearing lubricative well and clean;

    4.    Keep cnc spindle motor without water;

     

    5.    Better not make router spindle work with long-time continuously and strong resistance;

    (1)  Usually, spindle service life is in proportion to rotate speed;

    That means the higher rotate speed, the shorter lifetime;

    (2)  In considering spindle maintenance, there is no need to rotate in high speed if not necessary;

    (3)  If temperature increases after long time working, it’s necessary to replace cooling water;  

     

    6.    In normal use, machine spindle should be assembled every year for spindle maintenance;

    (1)  Reassembly could guarantee bearing precision and longer lifetime;

    (2)  In order to keep motor spindle in good working state, assembly and disassembly should meet the requirements:

    ①   In clean working environment;

    ②   Should be done by experienced professional operators;

    ③   With appropriate tools;

    ④   Not to knock at random;

     

    7.    Spindle maintenance when change cnc bearing:

    (1)  Should be changed by professional technicians;

    (2)  Assort with special tools;

    (3)  Should be washed completely;

    (4)  No need to remove stator coil;

    (5)  To prolong spindle life after bearing replacement, cnc spindle should not speed up until slow running for 8 hours in the rotational speed range;

     

    8.    Spindle maintenance when spindle not used for a period of time:  

    (1)  The working environment temperature is usually -10℃ ~ 40℃;

    (2)  Spindle maintenance steps:

    ①   First, the coolant in the water pipe should be blown with compressed air;

    ②   It will prevent rust, freeze and blocking water pore;

    ③   Should apply with anti-rust oil on:

    a)  Machine spindle;

    b)  Spindle sleeve;

    c)  Spindle nose;

    d)  Axle hole;

    e)  Other accessories accordingly: router bits, router collets, nuts, etc; 

    (3)  Require protection device in the axle head;

    (4)  Put in the dry and cool place;

    (5)  If reused, make router spindle no-load running for half hour before starting work;
