The normal operation of a CNC lathe must meet the following conditions: minimal power supply voltage fluctuations at the machine's location, an ambient temperature below 30°C, and a relative humidity below 80%.

 

Environmental Requirements: The machine should be located away from vibration sources, avoiding direct sunlight and heat radiation, as well as humidity and airflow. If there are vibration sources near the machine, anti-vibration trenches should be installed around it. Otherwise, the machining accuracy and stability of the machine will be directly affected, leading to poor contact and malfunctions in electronic components, thus impacting the machine's reliability.

 

Power Supply Requirements: CNC lathes are generally installed in machining workshops, where not only are ambient temperatures highly variable and operating conditions harsh, but the presence of various electromechanical equipment also causes significant power grid fluctuations. Therefore, the power supply voltage at the installation location of the CNC lathe needs strict control. Power supply voltage fluctuations must be within the allowable range and remain relatively stable. Otherwise, it will affect the normal operation of the CNC system.

 

Temperature Conditions: The ambient temperature of the CNC lathe should be below 30°C, and the relative humidity below 80%. Generally, CNC electrical control boxes are equipped with exhaust fans or air coolers to maintain a constant or minimally variable operating temperature for electronic components, especially the central processing unit. Excessive temperature and humidity will reduce the lifespan of control system components and increase the likelihood of malfunctions. Increased temperature and humidity, along with increased dust, can cause adhesion on integrated circuit boards, leading to short circuits.

 

Proper Use of Machine Tools
Users are not permitted to arbitrarily change the parameters set by the manufacturer within the control system when using a machine tool. These parameter settings directly affect the dynamic characteristics of various machine tool components. Only the clearance compensation parameter value can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

 

Users must not arbitrarily replace machine tool accessories, such as using hydraulic chucks that exceed the specifications in the instruction manual. The manufacturer fully considers the matching of parameters in various components when setting accessories. Blindly replacing accessories can lead to mismatches in parameters and even unforeseen accidents.

 

The pressure used for hydraulic chucks, hydraulic tool holders, hydraulic tailstocks, and hydraulic cylinders must be within the allowable stress range and must not be arbitrarily increased.
