How to debug a dual spindle optical machine

1. Familiarize oneself with the equipment

Before debugging, it is necessary to be familiar with the structure, principle, and performance indicators of the dual spindle optical machine. Understand its working principle and workflow, master the usage methods and precautions of the equipment. ‌

2. Equipment connection and inspection

Equipment connection: Connect the optical equipment correctly to the power supply and external devices, and check whether the connection is firm and correct. ‌

Check the instrument: Check the instrument and display screen of the equipment to ensure that the power supply is normal and the operation interface is normal. ‌

3. Initialization settings

Perform device initialization settings, including calibrating instruments and sensors, to ensure that the device can function properly. ‌

4. Functional testing

Test the main functions of the equipment in sequence, such as infrared temperature measurement, laser ranging, level, angle measurement, etc. Through testing, data collection and processing are carried out, and compared with actual measurement data to verify the accuracy of the equipment. ‌

5. Mechanical and electrical joint debugging

After completing hardware configuration, electrical connection, parameter setting, and PLC programming, conduct electromechanical joint debugging testing to test whether the various functions of dual spindle control can be achieved. This includes manual function testing and automatic function testing to ensure that the spindle can start, stop, rotate forward, reverse, and stop normally. ‌

6. Concentricity adjustment

For dual spindle optical machines, the adjustment of concentricity is particularly important. This usually involves the following steps:

Preparation: Remove the spindle, clean the spindle seat, spindle hole, and supporting components to ensure they are free of oil and impurities, and the surface is free of wear or scratches. ‌

Install standard rod: Install a standard rod on a spindle and measure its diameter with a vernier caliper. Then install the standard rod onto another spindle and adjust the alignment screw until the distance between the two spindles is equal. ‌

Repeated measurement and adjustment: Repeat the above steps to gradually adjust the distance between the main shafts until the distance between the two main shafts is equal and the diameter of the standard rod is consistent. ‌

Verification: After completing the adjustment, perform machining verification by installing the workpiece to check whether the machining accuracy and concentricity of the dual spindle optical machine meet the requirements. ‌

7. Whole machine debugging

Debug the entire device to ensure coordinated operation between various components, such as the structure of the optomechanical system and signal transmission. ‌

8. Maintenance and upkeep

Regular inspection: Check whether the appearance, connecting wires, control panel, instruments, sensors, etc. of the equipment are intact and undamaged. ‌

Cleaning and maintenance: Regularly clean the equipment to remove dust and dirt. ‌

Calibration instruments: Regularly calibrate instruments and sensors to ensure the accuracy of measurement and testing results. ‌

matters needing attention

During the debugging process, it is necessary to strictly follow the instructions and safety operating procedures of the equipment to ensure personal and equipment safety. ‌

In case of malfunction, timely inspection and maintenance should be carried out according to the fault indicator light or alarm information. ‌

After debugging is completed, maintenance and upkeep records of the equipment should be kept for subsequent tracking and management. ‌

Please note that the above steps are for general guidance only, and the specific debugging process may vary depending on the equipment model, manufacturer, and specific requirements. In practical operation, please be sure to refer to the operation manual of the equipment and the debugging guide provided by the manufacturer. ‌
