2.10 Emissions

The noise level (emission) of the mill drill is below 76 dB(A). If the mill drill is installed in an area where various machines are in operation, the acoustic influence on the operator of the mill drill may exceed 85 dB(A).

INFORMATION

This numeric value had been measured on a new machine under conventional operating conditions. Depending on the age or wear of the machine, the noise behavior of the machine might change.

Furthermore, the extent of the noise emission is also depending on manufacturing influence factors, such as speed, material and clamping conditions.

INFORMATION

The mentioned numerical value is an emission level and not necessarily a safe working level.

Unless the degree of noise emission and the degree of noise disturbance are depending on one another it is not possible to use it in order to reliably determine if it is necessary to take further preventive measures or not.

The following factors influence the actual degree of the noise disturbance of the operator:

• Characteristics of the working chamber, e.g. size or damping behavior,

• Other noise sources, e.g. the number of machines,

• Other processes proceeding nearby and the period during which the operator is exposed to the noise.

Consult OSHA, state and local regulations in orde r to determine complianc e, dangers and risks to the operator.

CAUTION! The machine operator has to wear an appropriate ear protection depending on the overall

stress caused by noise and on the basic limit values. We generally recommend using a sound and ear protection.

3.4 Installation and assembly

3.4.1 Site requirements

Organize the working space around the mill drill according to the local safety regulations.

INFORMATION

In order to provide for good functionality and high machining accuracy as well as long durability of the machine the site should fulfill certain criteria.

Observe the following items:

 The device must only be installed and operated in dry ventilated places.  Avoid places nearby machines generating chips or dust.  The site has to be vibration-free, i.e. at a distance from presses, planing machines, etc.  The substructure has to be appropriate for mill drill. Also make sure that the load bearing

capacity and the evenness of the floor are appropriate.

 The substructure has to be prepared in a way that possibly used coolant cannot penetrate

into the ground.

 Protruding parts such as stops, handles, etc. need to be secured by measures provided by

the customer if necessary in order to avoid dangers for persons.

 Provide sufficient space for assembly and operating staff as well as for material transport.  Also allow for accessibility for setting and maintenance works.  Make sure that the mains plug of the turning machine is freely accessible.  Provide for sufficient illumination (minimum value: 47 Lumens/ft², measured at the tool tip). In

case of insufficient intensity of illumination provide for additional illumination i.e. by a separate workplace illuminator.

INFORMATION

The mains plug of the mill drill has to be freely accessible.

3.4.2 Load suspension point

WARNING!

Danger of crushing and overturning. Proceed with extreme caution when lifting, installing and assembling the machine.

 Secure the load-suspension device around the drill-mill head. Use a lifting sling for this pur-

pose.

 Clamp all the clamping levers at the mill drill before lifting the mill drill.  Make sure that no add-on pieces or varnished parts are damaged due to the load-suspen-

sion.

3.4.3 Installation

 Check the horizontal orientation of the base of the mill drill with a spirit level.  Check that the foundation has sufficient floor-load capacity and rigidity. The total weight of

the mill drill is 584 lbs./265 Kg.

Page 21

OPTIMUM

MASCHINEN - GERMANY

Unpacking and connecting

Page 21Stand 27 / 08 / 2010 Version 1.0.6 BF 30 Vario Mill Drill

ATTENTION! Insufficient rigidity of the foundation leads to the superpos itio n of vibra tions betwe en the

mill drill and the foundation (natural frequency of components). Insufficient rigidity of the entire milling machine assembly also rapidly causes the machine to reach critical speeds, with unpleasant vibrations, leading to bad milling results.

 Position the mill drill on the intended foundation.  Attach the mill drill using the provided recesses in the machine base.

WARNING! The quality of the stand and the kind of fixture of the machine stand to the substructure

has to assimilate the loads of the machine. The substructure needs to be even. Please check the horizontal alignment of the substructure of the machine with a level. Fix the machine to the substructure at the provided recesses at the stand. Connector cartridges or heavy-duty bolts are strongly recommended.

 „Installation plan“ on page 16,  „Installation plan of optional stand“ on page 17.

3.5 First use

WARNING! Risk by using improper workpiece clamping materials or by operating the machine with

inadmissible speed. Only use the clamping materials (e.g. drill chuck) which had been delivered together with

the machine or as optional equipment. Use the working clamping materials only in the provided admissible speed range. Workpiece clamping materials must only be modified according to the recommendations

4.5 Inserting a tool

4.5.1 Installation

CAUTION! When milling operations are performed the cone seat must always be fixed to the draw-in

rod. All cone connections with the taper bore of the work spindle without using the drawin rod are not allowed for milling operations. The cone connection should be released by the lateral pressure. Injuries may be caused by parts flying off.

The mill head is equipped with a 12 mm draw-in rod.

 Clean the taper of your tool.  Insert the tool into the holding fixture /

spindle quill.

Fig. 4-3: Mill drill ead

 Screw the draw-in rod into the tool.  Tighten the tool with the draw-in rod

and hold the spindle onto the end support with a key.

Fig. 4-4: Mill drill head without hood

4.5.2 Disassembly

 Hold the spindle thrust bearing with a wrench and loosen the draw-in rod 2-3 turns. Tap top

of draw rod with plastic hammer to loosen the tool from the cone. Turn the draw-in rod further, so that the tool is released completely out from the cone.

ATTENTION! When using an MT 3 spindle.

When installing a cold Morse taper into a heated-up machine the MT seats tend to shrink on the Morse taper versus a quick-release taper.

4.5.3 Use of collet chucks

When using collet chucks to hold milling tools, a higher operation tolerance can be achieved. The exchange of the collet chucks for a smaller or larger end mill cutter is performed simply and rapidly and it is not necessary to disassemble the complete tool. The collet chuck is pressed into the ring of the swivel nut and must rest there by itself. The milling cutter is clamped by fastening the swivel nut on the tool.

Make sure that the correct collet chuck is used for each milling cutter diameter, so that the milling cutter may be fastened securely and firmly.

4.6 Clamping the workpieces

CAUTION! Injury by flying off parts.

The workpiece is always to be fixed by a machine vice, jaw chuck or by anot her appropriate clamping tool such as clamping claws.

4.7 Changing the speed range

ATTENTION! Wait until the mill drill has come to a complete halt before changing the speed using the

gear switch.

 Select gear level.

H = rapid M = middle L = low

 Adjust the speed with the potentiome-

ter. The speed and thus the cutting speed depends on the material of the workpiece, the milling cutter diameter and the cutter type.

Fig. 4-5: mill drill head

4.8 Selecting the speed

For milling operations, the essential factor is the selection of the correct speed. The speed determines the cutting speed of the cutting edges which cut the material. By selecting the correct cutting speed, the service life of the tool is increased and the working result is optimised.

The optimum cutting speed mainly depends on the material and on the material of the tool. With tools (milling cutters) made of hard metal or ceramic insert it is possible to work at higher speeds than with tools made of high-alloyed high-speed steel (HSS). You will achieve the correct cutting speed by selecting the correct speed.

In order to determine the cor rect cutting speed for your to ol and for the material to be cut, you may refer to the following standard values or a table reference book (e.g. Machinery's Handbook ISBN 0-8311-2424-5, Insert Pgs. 30a & 30b (attached)).

The required speed is calculated as follows:

 The data given above are standard values. In some cases it may be advantageous to inc-

rease or decrease these values.

 When drilling, a cooling or lubricating agent should be used.  For stainless materials (e.g., VA or NIRO steel sheets) do not center because the material

might compact and the drill bit will become dull rapidly.

 The workpieces need to be held firmly (using vise, screw clamp, etc.).

INFORMATION

Friction during the cutting process causes high temperatures at the cutting edge of the tool. The tool should be cooled during the milling process. Cooling the tool with a suitable cooling lubricant ensures better working results and a longer edge life of the cutting tool.

INFORMATION

Use a water-soluble and non-pollutant emulsion as a cooling agent. This can be acquired from authorised distributors.

Make sure that the cooling agent is properly retrieved. Respect the environment when disposing of any lubricants and cooling agents. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for disposal.
