AMTDA HP Data - Every electric motor has a duty cycle and for machine tools, it’s called MTDR. (Machine Tool Duty Rating) 100% for 24 hours (Continuous HP) 125% for 30 minutes (MTDR) 150% for 1 minute (Peak) When a machine tool spindle or axis motor reaches its limit, one of two things happens: 1. It shuts off because the internal temperature sensors indicate that it is too hot. 2. It stalls because of lack of torque. When calculating the power required to propel a drill into solid material, it is necessary to calculate Horsepower, Torque and most importantly the Axis Thrust. On large drills, the maximum axis thrust may be exceeded before HP and Torque are. The duty cycle also applies to a motor that indexes a turret. A turret can only perform so many indexes in an hour before it “Duties Out”

[@danny36120]

Exactly the insight I needed at the correct time. Thanks for sharing.

[@douglascalhoun6471]

The big picture is always important. Narrow focus on cost and not overall ability tends to contribute to shops buying the minimum machine needed. They seldom think long term in having a machine that they can grow into for at times not much more money. Sturdier machines suffer less from wear and tend to produce better tolerances versus a lower cost machine. "Buy once, cry once" is a good saying to remember.

Guys who said you were going to break that ibarmia spindle actually never worked in a cnc machine shop or did ever take a big cut. I was cringing so hard on those comments. I've got a little 10hp bridgeport which is crying daily because of the forces its undergoing while machining mostly stainless and super duplex. Spindle is still running fine for years and if it breaks, it already has made so much money that we could buy 20 of those machines if not more. I've noticed you got a couch in the background ? I hope your employees are allowed to go there and relax while machine is running, as i currently got health issues as a result of 15 years on my feet 8-12 hours a day, i really appreciate being allowed to sit for a minute.

Ran a siemens equipped horizontal borer, 3500 ish Nm in low gear, 100%load on that is fun to see. The load meter is just a fancy visual gauge which means nothing until you've done you 3rd part, then you can use it to keep an eye on the tool wear through tool management, the rest of the machine will help know what is too much, then adjust to get the balance between tool life and stalled in the cut 😁

So I have a question, about spindle fretting. In our shop all our mills limiting factor is fretting. Anytime we come anywhere close to the spindles or machines limit we start to get fretting in the spindle taper, all our machines are big plus spindles and all our tooling is as well. Just wondering if anyone else has this issue as well. Don't get me wrong we remove some metal but it's always fretting for us thats the limiting factor.

[@gordonburnett9672]

You can coat the tapers on the tools, or make sure that some the thru tool coolant ends up on the taper, minimal help but maybe enough, if you have knocked the front face of the double contact with a bit of swaft, you might have issues with the seating. Also get your belville washers checked for tension, if it's down up might be getting a bit of tool walking down the taper, also try feed milling or plunge milling to ensure forces are pushing tools in.

I trust that you're not going to blow up a spindle, but keep in mind that ultimately the bearings take all machine forces and the harder you run your machine, the faster the bearings are going to wear out. All that energy has to go somewhere. Heavy duty usage requires a more aggressive maintenance program.

It's rarely if ever a linear progression, though. If you do your homework, it could be worth running the machine at a pace that would look brutal to the traditional 'eyeballer' types.

He lightly touched on this with the two spindle types. Most people get in trouble trying to run a low torque high speed spindle like it is a high torque spindle. Understanding what you have and how it affects the needed programming strategy is VERY important. If you're running aluminum and small tools you may want the high RPM, even though that means relatively fragile ceramic bearings and low torque duty cycles. In fact, I have run a machine where I overloaded the motor with just all the RPM ramp up and downs, not the cutting load. Tools were so small they would have broken way before the motor load even registered on the amp meter.

It came to me yesterday, but I also find it quite ironic hearing Titan talking about american made and american manufacturing, and yet you exchanged ALL your american made Haas machine tools for their korean counterpart since the american machines could not keep up with the rigidity and spindle power/torque put out by the korean machines. Im not mocking anybody here, I'm just saying it's ironic.

[@TITANSofCNC]

We have a ton of video tutorials on our Academy that teach how to set up and run Haas. We also teach Tormach, DMGMORI, Makino, Doosan and now Heller. There are levels to the game and to keep Americans working, you have to invest in the right technology that allows you to compete in a global market. The simple truth is that America doesn’t make the higher end machines and if we did… We would definitely use them unless other machines were simply better. What’s better… Buy American and potentially lay off your workforce? Or Buy the best technology so you can hire more Americans… We also have 1100 videos on KZbin where we literally discuss all aspects of machining and how to run a business. I think this torque and power segment was useful and very important. Most would never know that more than 1 company quotes power and torque specs based on 200%… especially since most never want to run over 70%. Anyways, Haas is great for many up and comers and or companies that run aluminum and light steel etc. But you definitely have to look outside the US if your running complicated and tough materials. It’s just a fact

[@jcleese9651]

@@TITANSofCNC I have a feeling this discussion could go on forever really, but here is another take on it. Ok, so you are not using Haas anymore (or to a lesser extent) because they simply can't compete with the european, japoanese and korean machines, meaning you have to look outside the US. It also means Haas will make less money and cannot afford to invest as heavily as they may have to into the R&D neeeded to match the competition, meaning they may have to lay off americans in the long run, right? Of course I understand your point of view too, heavier cuts and higher feeds means less time per part, meaning $$$. You are talking about being competitive and that's perfectly fine and very sane for any business, but at the same time you are saying Haas machines are inferior to their foreign counterparts and simply can't keep up with the needs of your shop. It's been at least 20 years since I last stood on the floor by the way and I'm pretty sure by now you know I'm not an american. Keep going though, I find these videos very informative. Cheers!

Sure! S1 is usually what you can run at continuously. S2 is usually what you can run at for a specified amount of time, and s3 is usually also for a specific time period less than s2. S4-6 will be a percentage of a 10 minute duty cycle, so if s6 is 15%, you can run at 1.5 minutes at this curve, followed by an 8.5 minute cooldown.
