• FDB 900 • FDB 1040 1.2 Warranty The warranty of the Chamfering spindle FDB is valid for 24 months. This does not apply to the air motor. The air motor is warranted for a period of 1000 hours at not lubricated operations or 12 month of operation from date of delivery from the production facility, whichever occurs first.

The FDB Deburring Spindle is a robust, high-speed and lightweight air turbine-driven deburring unit for deburring aluminum, plastic, steel, etc. with a robot or CNC machine. The FDB is especially suited for removal of parting lines and flash from parts. However, its flexible design allows it to be used in a wide variety of applications.
The air motor design does not allow the installation of spindle brakes or quick- change (drawbar) collet systems. 04.00 | FDB | Assembly and Operating Manual | en | 389072...

All noise emission measurements were taken under no load idle conditions without a cutting tool. Because the working environment is unknown it is impossible to predict the noise that will occur during a deburring operation. The FDB may also excite resonant frequencies on equipment to which it is mounted creating higher sound pressure levels than the unit by itself.

The air turbine will attempt to maintain its full rated speed even under loaded conditions. However, when extremely heavy cuts are taken the motor may eventually stall. Therefore, multiple light passes are preferred over slow, heavy cuts. 04.00 | FDB | Assembly and Operating Manual | en | 389072...

FDB. SCHUINK can provide custom interface plates and adapters upon request. An optional bench mount adapter plate allows the FDB to be permanently attached to a bench or other work surface . If the FDB is permanently mounted to a work surface, the robot carries the part to be deburred to the FDB.

12]). The compliance force, air supply pressure regulator should have a (FDB 150: 1.4 - 4.2 bar / FDB 300-1040: 0-4.1 bar) range. When testing for the proper contact force, start with a very low pressure and increase slowly until the desired cut is achieved.
Countersinking and other axial metal-forming processes should not be performed by the FDB. It may be dangerous to operate the FDB deburring tool for these purposes. If a failure occurs due to forces caused by improper use, hazardous situations for both personnel and equipment could be created.
Be aware of rotating parts. Use eye-protection while working around the FDB. Be aware of high sound levels. While the FDB air motor is not loud, the cutting action associated with deburring frequently is. Always use hearing protection while working in the neighborhood of the deburring cell.

This can quickly load a cutter and produce unacceptable results. In general, the traverse or feed rate of the FDB will be higher for plastics to minimize this behavior. This results in larger cuts, which more effectively remove heat from the cutter-tool interface.
