Interact 4 Excessive Spindle noise | | hi folks i have searched through the forums but could find nothing in relation to the issue i am having,
we have a few interacts here, ranging from 151 controls to 370's
they are each running pretty much 30-40 hours per week each.
We are now starting to see more and more problems, and as we have several of them we would like to try and maintain/fix as much as we can in-house.
The main issue at the moment is an interact 4 with a 370 control which was giving a spindle motor fan overload alarm, but then went on to give us a very nosiy main spindle. We always warm the spindles up each morning, around 400 rpm, but doing this now we see our main florescent lights in the workshop flickering badly as the spindle draws current. It is audibly louder than the other machines. We have only tried 1 production run since this happened , and at the end of cycle on an m25 the machine tripped out and the spindle coasted to a stop.
The machine has a sicme motori spindle,
Does anyone have any experience of this problem?
Thanks in advance. |
