Maintenance of CNC lathes is key to ensuring their normal operation and extending their service life. Here are some recommended maintenance measures:
1. Daily cleaning and lubrication: Clean each guide surface of the CNC lathe every day to ensure that there are no chips, oil stains and other impurities. For CNC lathes with automatic lubrication systems, regular inspection, cleaning and lubricating oil should be added to ensure sufficient oil volume and the oil pump should be started regularly.
2. Maintenance of the spindle box and cooling system: Check whether the automatic lubrication system of the CNC lathe spindle box is working properly, and replace the spindle box lubricating oil regularly. At the same time, pay attention to checking the cooling system of the CNC lathe, add or replace oil or water in time, and ensure that the liquid level is appropriate and the oil and water are clean.
3. Inspection of electrical and hydraulic systems: CNC lathes should regularly check the cooling fan and filter in the electrical cabinet and clean the dust. Pay attention to check the noise of the oil tank pump of the CNC lathe hydraulic system, the working oil level and pressure gauge indication, as well as whether there are leaks in the pipelines and joints.
4. Inspection of mechanical accuracy and protection: Regularly check the mechanical accuracy of each moving part of the CNC lathe to reduce shape and position deviations. At the same time, check whether the guide rails and machine tool protective covers are complete and effective to ensure the safety of the machine tool.
5. Tool management: For CNC tools, choose appropriate anti-rust oil and keep the storage environment dry. Knives should be placed separately and avoid being placed together without packaging. Handle it with care when using it to avoid collision or falling. Knife handles that are not used for a long time should be stored with anti-rust oil and reapplied regularly.
6. Machine tool accuracy correction: Regularly spot-check and correct the accuracy of CNC lathes to ensure processing quality.
7. Electrical system maintenance: Carry out electrical system maintenance according to the CNC lathe maintenance cycle, including primary maintenance and secondary maintenance. First-level maintenance is usually performed once every quarter, including cleaning dust, test running, tightening fuses, sorting circuits, etc. Level two maintenance is more detailed and comprehensive.
To sum up, the maintenance of CNC lathes involves many aspects, from daily cleaning and lubrication to regular accuracy calibration and electrical system maintenance, all of which need to be taken seriously. Only by doing these things well can the stable operation and efficient processing of CNC lathes be ensured.
