Quality machine tools are an investment. To keep them working for longer, it's important to follow a few basic principles:
- Regular cleaning - After each use, clean the tool of chips and dirt that can cause wear.
- Correct storage - Instruments should be stored in a dry and shock protected environment.
- Temporary sharpening - A blunt instrument increases the load and the risk of breakage. Do not delay sharpening.
- Use of appropriate modes - Avoid overloading through properly selected speeds and feeds.
- Lubrication and cooling - Applying the correct coolant prevents the tool from overheating and extends its life.
By following these tips, you will achieve higher productivity and reduce tool replacement costs.
