In any CNC Machine there are several types of lubricants in use at any given time.
Here is our second top tip on Lubricating your CNC Machine.
Gearbox lubricants is definitely an area not to get wrong. We have seen failures of gearboxes that have caused major down time of equipment because people who are unaware of lubricant properties and think ‘oil is, well oil’, this is not a one size fits all area. Due to the extreme pressures within a gearbox the oil is the barrier to stop metal to metal contact and wear of the gears. Therefore again, only use oil as recommended by the manufactures. Buy the best oil you can as this will save you £s in the long run.
We have another three tips coming out soon make sure to follow us to find out the next tip!
