How to Use the Ethernet Interface

Vibration Analysis - Ethernet Interface - AD0166

Page 6 of 9 pages

1Warm up the Spindle:

Insert a tool into the spindle.

For spindles that are 10,000 RPM or higher, ensure the tooling is balanced to at least balance grade G2.5

If necessary, select the [MEMORY] tab and operate the warm up program for the spindle:

Classic Haas Control O02020.

Next Generation Control O09220.

2Place the accelerometer on the spindle:

Remove the protective magnet from the vibrationsensor.

Put the vibration sensor (accelerometer) on theright side of the spindle in the X Axis direction.

Place the parallel magnets that are on the sensorparallel with the spindle.

For lathe spindle, you can either place theaccelerometer on the side of the spindle castingor you can place it on one of the motor mountsnear the hydraulic actuator.

Note: We measure vibration in the X Axisbecause the machine is weakest in this axis andthus will produce the highest vibration in thisdirection.

3Vibration Displacement Settings:

• Right click on the spectrum screen• Select FFT [5].• Select mil [2].• Select 45.776 CP [3].• Select 0-38,452 CPM [4].• Select 0.1 mil [6] for the Y-Axis Scaling.

4Select a speed to analyze the spindle vibration:

You can view vibration measurements at any speed, it doesn't just have to be max speed.

• If the customer is having vibration issues at the speed they use in their program, it's probablybest to check the vibration plots at that speed.

• If you're not sure if there's a specific speed where vibration is happening with your machine,with the vibration analyzer connected, run the machine starting at 1000 RPM and go up in 1000RPM increments seeing if you find an area where there is a high vibration displacement spikeor lots of noise/spikes on the vibration velocity plot.

• To determine what a "high" spike may be, please compare to the Vibration Tolerances for Millor Lathe

◦ MILL SPINDLE VIBRATION TOLERANCES◦ LATHE SPINDLE VIBRATION TOLERANCES

For troubleshooting purposes, it is best to get a baseline of spindle health at max speed so the factorycan compare it to the expected health of the spindle.

If you are not sure the max speed of the machine, you can check Parameter 131 for your maximumspindle speed.

Run the spindle at any given speed using the below example code:

For example, for a 12K spindle enter this program in MDI mode:

M03 S12000;

Press [CYCLE START].

5How to take Vibration Displacement plots:

When taking measurements you can select the range of Cycles Per Minute (CPM) that you can see on thegraph.

When viewing the Displacement Plot you want the range to include the spindle speed in which you arerunning the spindle, since that is where you will see the spike of vibration at.

For most Displacement measurements this will be in the range of 0-38,452 CPM.

However if you're testing a Compact Mill or Office Mill, you may need to switch to 38,452 - 76,904CPM since the max speed of some of those spindles can be as high as 50,000 RPM depending on thespindle option.

Select the CPM range you need.

Run the spindle at the desired speed.

Let the vibration spike settle once the spindle reaches the speed you commanded (about 5-10 seconds).

6Velocity Plot Settings:

• Right click on the spectrum screen• Select FFT [5].• Select in/s [2].• Select 0.01 inch/s [6] for the Y-Axis

Scaling.• Select 45.776 CP [3].• Select 0-38,452 CPM [4].• Select Peak for the Y-Axis Amplitude.

Take screenshots of the plots at the followingCPM ranges:

• 0-38,452 CPM• 38,452 - 76,904 CPM• 76,904 - 115,356 CPM• 115,356 - 153,809 CPM• 153,809 - 192,261 CPM• 192,261 - 230,713 CPM

Analyze the data. Refer to MILL - SPINDLEVIBRATION - TOLERANCES or LATHE - SPINDLEVIBRATION - TOLERANCES for the vibrationspecifications.

7If the vibration is higher than the specifications, you can do this procedure again with the spindledisconnected from the motor.

Note: For inline spindles, you must remove the spindle.

Attach the sensor to the side of the head casting for the spindle.

Attach it to the position that is nearest to the spindle motor.

Note: Make sure the position is a flat area.

Compare the results with the first test.

If the noise stays higher than the specifications, the noise is from the motor.

If the noise appears to be from the spindle, please refer to:
