Mazak Computer Numerical Control Machine QTN 450-II

WARNING: When checking belt tensions, do not get your fingers caught between the belt and pulley.

Check pressure gages for proper readings.

Check motors, gear boxes and other parts for abnormal noises.

Check the motor lubrication, and sliding parts for evidence of proper lubrication.

Check safety covers and safety devices for proper operation.

Check belt tensions. Replace any set of belts that have become stretched with a fresh matching set.

CAUTION: Warm up the machine, especially the spindle and feed shaft, by running the machine for 10 to 20 minutes at about one-half or one-third the maximum speed in the automatic operation mode.

Machine warmed up for 10 to 20 minutes at about one-half or one-third the maximum speed in the automatic operation mode?

The automatic operation program should cause each machine component to operate. At the same time, check their operations.

Each machine component operated and checked?

Be particularly careful to warm up the spindle which can turn above 4000 rpm. If the machine is used for actual machining immediately after being started up following a long idle period, the sliding parts may be worn due to the lack of oil.

Spindle warmed up and checked for wear due to lack of oil?

Also, thermal expansion of the machine components can jeopardize machining accuracy. To prevent this condition, always make sure that the machine is warmed up.

Machine components checked for thermal expansion and machining accuracy?
