The daily care and maintenance of the cnc router

The daily care and the maintenance is an important task that helps to ensure the continuous and stable operation of the machine and extends its service life.

Here’s are some key points for the daily care of the cnc router machine.

  1. Electrical box: Regularly clean the dust inside the electrical box, check the connection terminals and all screws for looseness, to ensure the safety and reliability of the electrical circuit.
  2. Transmission system: After each use, clean the dust and debris from the transmission system, and lubricate it regularly (weekly).
  3. Lubrication system: It is recommended to run the machine continuously for no more than 10 hours per day, and add lubricating oil and run it empty regularly (weekly) when not in use, to ensure the flexibility of the transmission system.
  4. Cooling system: Ensure that the cooling water is clean and the water pump is working properly, to prevent the water-cooled spindle motor from running dry. Replace the cooling water regularly to prevent overheating.
  5. Cutting tools and clamping devices: Regularly check the wear of cutting tools and the clamping force of clamping devices, replace or adjust them in time if necessary.
  6. Cleaning and lubrication: Regularly remove chips, oil stains, and dust from cutting tools, clamping devices, and work tables to ensure that processing accuracy is not affected.
  7. Electrical safety: Ensure that the voltage is correct, the machine is placed steadily, and there is good ventilation. Pay attention to the tightness and safety of the wiring inside the control cabinet.
  8. Environmental conditions: According to the voltage used by the cnc router, ensure stable power supply, avoid direct sunlight, and check the control lines and fasteners inside the control box before each day’s work.

Daily maintenance: Clean the crevices and corners of the machine at least once a week, and use a air gun connected to a air compressor for cleaning.

Tool changing operation: When performing a tool changing operation, remove the chuck and clean the tool with compressed air before installing a new tool to avoid problems.

In addition, there are other aspects that need attention:

Regularly check the guide rails and bearings of the cnc router machine to ensure they are well lubricated and not worn or damaged. Keep the workbench of the cnc router clean, without any debris or oil stains. Regularly update the software and driver programs of the cnc router to ensure system stability and compatibility. Avoid using the cnc router machine in a damp or dusty environment, which can affect its performance and service life. During operation, follow operating procedures to avoid overloading or incorrect operation. If there is a malfunction with the cnc router machine, perform maintenance and repairs promptly instead of running it in a faulty condition. By applying these care and maintenance measures comprehensively, you can effectively extend the service life of the cnc router machine, improve work efficiency, and ensure processing quality and precision.
