How to maintain CNC lathe during rainy season?

The main tasks of preventive maintenance of CNC machine tools include: daily inspection, weekly inspection, monthly inspection and semi-annual inspection. Details are as follows:

Routine inspection: preventive maintenance of CNC machining CNC lathes. The main items for daily inspection include hydraulic system, spindle lubrication system, guide rail lubrication system, cooling system and pneumatic system. Routine inspections are based on the normal condition of each system. For example, during the process of testing the spindle lubrication system, the power indicator light should be on and the oil pump should be working normally. If the power indicator light does not light up, stop the spindle and contact a mechanical engineer. Make repairs.

Weekly inspection: The main items for weekly inspection of CNC machining CNC lathes include lathe parts and spindle lubrication system. Proper inspection should be carried out once a week, especially on lathe parts, to remove iron filings and external debris.

Monthly inspection: Check the lubrication condition of the X, Y, and Z axis tracks. The track surface must be well lubricated. Check and clean limit switches and bumpers. Check whether there is enough oil in the oil cup and replenish it in time. Check that the indicator lights and warning plates on the machine are clearly visible.

Check every six months: remove the three-axis chip guard, clean the three-axis tube joint, ball guide screw, and three-axis limit switch, and check if they are normal. Check that the hard scraper is working well on each axis. Check whether the servo motor and each axis head are working normally and whether there is any abnormal noise. Change the oil in the hydraulic unit and the oil in the tool magazine reducer. Test the clearance on each axis and adjust the compensation if necessary. Clean any dust from the electrical box (make sure the lathe is turned off). Check all aspects of contacts, connectors, sockets and switches. Check and adjust mechanical level.

CNC lathes must be strictly grounded and use a three-core power plug to reduce electrostatic interference, improve machine tool stability and protect operators. Due to excessive power consumption in summer and rainy seasons, the voltage of the power line is often unstable, causing malfunctions and even burning out components such as drives. The editor of Small CNC Lathe Maker recommends purchasing the appropriate model of regulator.

Because CNC lathe equipment has a warranty period, CNC lathe users should make full use of the lathe and expose the thin parts as soon as possible during this period so that they can be processed within the warranty period. If not used for a long time, the aging or damage of electronic components may be accelerated due to moisture and other reasons. Especially during the rainy season, the machine should be operated correctly.
