Do you know the reason for the alarm when the spindle of a vertical machining center is overloaded?
Nov 21, 2023
A vertical machining center refers to a machining center with a spindle in a vertical state. Its structural form is mostly a fixed column, and the workbench is rectangular without indexing rotation function. It is suitable for machining disk, sleeve, and plate parts. It generally has three linear motion coordinate axes and can be equipped with a rotary table that rotates along the horizontal axis on the workbench for machining spiral parts.
Vertical machining centers are easy to install, operate, observe machining conditions, debug programs, and have a wide range of applications. However, due to the limitations of the column height and tool changing device, parts that are too high cannot be machined. When machining cavities or concave surfaces, chips are not easily discharged, and in severe cases, it can damage the tool, damage the machined surface, and affect the smooth progress of machining.
What is the alarm after the spindle is overloaded during use? Below we will explain to you:
1, Most equipment alarms occur when the motor excitation is turned off. This problem is mostly caused by incorrect parameter settings. We can confirm whether the sensor settings are correct and whether there are any errors.
2, If the cable line is broken, an alarm will also occur, and at this time, personnel need to replace some cables.
3, There is a malfunction in the sensor adjustment of the vertical machining center, and at this time, the staff needs to adjust the signal of the sensor accordingly. If the staff cannot adjust it normally, they can directly replace the connected cable or sensor.
4, The spindle of the equipment is overloaded. When the spindle runs and touches the cable, it will sound an alarm, which may cause wire breakage. The staff can replace the cable. If cutting oil is found to be on the connector during the cable replacement process, we can clean it.
5, If an alarm occurs when the motor of the vertical machining center rotates, it is due to a cable shielding processing fault between the sensor and SPM. At this time, we can confirm the processing of the cable shielding. Another possibility is that the cable between the sensor and SPM is entangled with the power line of the servo motor, which requires the staff to separate and bundle them separately.
