hello everybody, i need some pointers on what and how to check out a Mazak vtc-20c. I have no cnc experience, the machines are under power at the moment and i would like to run them before they move them. Here is a list of questions.
1. what is the best way to check spindle condition? test indicator? and does the spindle need to be warmed up before checking? how do you manualy turn the spindle on?
2. how would you manualy check the tool changers?
3. how do you check if it has the rigid tap option?
4. how do you check the x,y,z axis condition
5. what else should i be checking on these?
i am completly ignorant on these machines and any help is greatly appreciated
thanks in advance
Terry
