I made a new button called Warm Up and stuck it on my WinCNC screen.
It goes to x30y48 and spins for 10 minutes, then comes back.

I think I might be able to squeeze it underneath the "Park" button... I'll try that in a bit.

[postalgbv]

ok, changed it.. fit it under 'Park' and made the color different.

what spindle manufacturer are you using guys?. Most only require a 5 min warmup higher end spindles say no warmup. HSD 915 and 919 with ceramic bearings says no warmup time is needed....

i've got a Columbo 5hp.. the care and maintenance sheet from PDS that came with it says to run at 9000rpm for 10 minutes.

[CNChelper]

columbo is a little dif, 10 mins is fine, hsd rep says 5 mins is plenty on there standard bearing style spindles...

thanks,

[postalgbv]

I figure that PDS recommendation of 10 minutes is being somewhat conservative and I could probably get away with less.. but I figure why chance it.

[cabnet636]

why not start a thread on spindles and maintinance!!

hsd manual page 52 on the 915 recommends 50% load for 2 min min
