The daily maintenance of CNC machine tools is essential to ensure the accuracy of the machine tools, extend the service life and improve production efficiency. Here are some specific actions:

Daily maintenance

  • Before bootCheck the appearance of the machine tool for damage, deformation or missing parts, and clean the dust and debris on the surface of the machine tool.
    Check whether the oil level of the lubricating oil tank and hydraulic oil tank is within the normal range. If it is insufficient, add it in time.
    Check the level and concentration of the cutting fluid tank to ensure that the cutting fluid is sufficient and has good performance, and add or replace the cutting fluid if necessary.
    Check whether the air pressure of the machine meets the requirements, generally between 0.5-0.8MPa.
    Check the limit switch and emergency stop button of each coordinate axis are working properly.
  • After bootingTurn on the power supply of the machine tool, let the machine preheat for 10-15 minutes, so that the components reach a stable working temperature, especially for high-precision processing, preheating is particularly important.
    Check whether each coordinate axis of the machine tool can return to zero normally. If the return to zero is abnormal, troubleshoot and repair the fault in time.
    Check whether the running sound of moving parts such as spindle and feed shaft is normal, and whether there is abnormal vibration or noise.
  • During processingClosely observe the processing status, including the cutting condition of the tool, the surface quality of the workpiece, the running sound of the machine tool, etc., if there is an anomaly, it should be stopped immediately for inspection.
    Pay attention to the injection of the cutting fluid to ensure that the cutting fluid can effectively cool and lubricate the tool and the workpiece to prevent the tool from overheating and increasing wear.
    Monitor the parameters of the machine, such as spindle speed, feed speed, cutting force, etc., to ensure that it is within a reasonable range, to avoid improper parameter setting resulting in machine overload or machining quality decline.
  • After shutdownBefore turning off the power supply of the machine, move the axes of the machine to a safe position to avoid collision in the shutdown state.
    Clean the cuttings and debris on the machine table and guide rail, use special tools (such as brush, air gun, etc.) to clean, prevent the cuttings from scratching the guide rail and affecting the accuracy of the machine tool.
    Wipe the key parts of the machine tool (such as guide rail, lead screw, spindle, etc.), and apply the appropriate amount of lubricating oil to prevent rust and wear.

Weekly maintenance

  • Clean the dust and debris in the electrical control cabinet to prevent the accumulation of dust affecting the heat dissipation and normal operation of the electrical components.
    Check whether electrical connectors are loose. If they are loose, tighten them in time to ensure the stability and reliability of the electrical system.
    Check whether the chip removal device of the machine tool works normally, clean up the chips and debris in the chip removal device, and prevent the chip blockage affecting the chip removal effect.
    Check whether the protective door, guardrail and other safety devices of the machine tool are intact, if damaged or loose, they should be repaired or replaced in time to ensure the safety of the operator.

Monthly maintenance

  • The guide rail, lead screw and other transmission parts of the machine tool can be inspected and lubricated, and special guide rail oil or grease can be applied or injected to ensure smooth movement and reduce wear.
    Check the accuracy and reliability of the tool clamping device to ensure that the tool will not loosen or displace during the machining process, affecting the machining quality.
    Clean or replace the air filter of the machine tool to ensure that the air entering the machine tool is clean, prevent dust and impurities from entering the machine tool, affecting the normal operation of the machine tool.
    Simple check of the accuracy of the machine tool, such as the use of laser interferometer or ball meter and other equipment to check the positioning accuracy of the axis and repeated positioning accuracy, if there is a deviation should be adjusted and calibrated in time.
