The Spindle Speeder is a mechanical speed multiplier that increases spindle speed for finishing and engraving operations and is rated for 20000 RPM operation continuously, and 30000 RPM operation intermittently.
What happens if spindle speed is too high?
Too Fast: Too much spindle speed will generate excess heat which softens the tool and dulls it faster.
What is the maximum spindle speed?
The highest spindle speed at which a modern ring frame can work is 25 000 rpm. This high value of the mechanical limit to spindle speed was achieved by machinery makers about 15 years ago; and several manufacturers have delivered such machines in several countries including India.
How do you check spindle RPM?
- multiplying the diameter of the bit (D) by 0.02 to determine the CHIP LOAD (2% chip load)
- multiply the CHIP LOAD by the number of flutes (F) on the cutter you are testing to determine the TOTAL CHIP LOAD.
- multiply the TOTAL CHIP LOAD by the SPEED (RPM) to calculate the TEST FEED.
