Gib adjustment question
How do you guys adjust your gibs on CNC machines? I took my mills table apart to clean it and take care of some rust and now I need to adjust the gibs.
When I've reinstalled gibs on manual machines in the past I just tightened them until I found a good balance of force needed to manually turn the handwheel advancement. Hardly precision I know. On a cnc mill with no manual handwheels, how do you guys adjust your gibs? When is too tight?
