- Swiveling synchronous: Check swivel axes
Orientation
Requirement
Procedure
24
For the maintenance activities described below, the personnel
performing them must have special expertise in machine
operation.
Hirth couplings are installed on all current INDEX MS machines with swivel axes to
lock the axis in the working positions. If the swivel axis is not exactly aligned with the
tooth gap in the center of the tooth during locking, the corresponding angular error is
mechanically overridden during locking. In the process, the mechanical components
(locking mechanism and gearbox) are subjected to high loads and therefore wear
out more quickly. In addition, the axis motor regulates against this misalignment,
whereby the axis current increases, resulting in increased heat input. Test interval:
Every 4 weeks and after collisions.
Depending on the use of the machine such as: single-shift or
multiple-shift operation, the interval may need to be adjusted
individually.
To define an individual interval, suitable for the respective machine, a corresponding
interval can be created in the maintenance area "B 1000 Customer area". Follow
the procedure/description in the document "XPANEL".
How to perform this check is described in the document "Swiveling-
synchronous - rear machining using the swiveling-
synchronous device" in Section "Checking swiveling-
synchronous". This document is part of the machine
documentation.
1. Check synchronous spindle opposite main spindle and all other positions at
which the swivel axis is locked.
If these checks result in a measured value of >0.02 mm (see document Swivel-
synchronous - rear......), the swivel axis must be readjusted.
2.
Adjust the swivel axis. If no training has been given on how
to perform this activity, be sure to contact the INDEX
TRAUB service department.
