Hi Gang..
I was cutting a square about 4" on a side 6061-T6 aluminum. 5/8 three
flute, in my KMB-1. Depth of cut .060 ~
I finally raised the rpm and it settled down.
Just wondering what the cause is. I need some bearings in the head; but I
don't know if the precision spindle bearings are the problem.. The mild
noise may be from other bearings.
Stan:
I doubt that it's anything spindle related, since spindle related
chatter would probably affect both axes equally.
We just had a similar thing (bad finish in Y, but fine in X), happen in
one of our Fadals. We have a service (Ex-Fadal techs), come out
periodically to do maintenance on the machines. I believe it was a
gibbs adjustment issue in our case.
