Spindle inspection - for maximum efficiency of your machines
We support with years of experience
A regular spindle inspection is an essential part of machine maintenance to ensure that they deliver optimum performance and achieve a long service life. As a one-stop service partner with over 20 years of experience, we at HS Drive TeC know how important the performance of your industrial spindles is for your production. That’s why we offer you comprehensive solutions to prevent machine downtime.
What is a spindle inspection?
A spindle inspection is the systematic inspection of the mechanical, electrical and thermal properties of spindles in terms of wear damage and other potential characteristics. This includes the examination of the spindle bearings, the clamping system, the tool change and safety sensors, shafts, seals and lubrication. The aim is to ensure the functionality and precision of the spindle in order to avoid expensive repairs or production downtime.
Why is a regular spindle inspection important?
- Early & preventive
Machine spindles are seen as the heart of industrial production machines. Their failure can not only cause costly downtime, but also jeopardise the quality of your production. If problems are recognised at an early stage, they can be rectified during a spindle inspection using precision spindle diagnostics before major damage occurs.
How often should a spindle inspection be carried out?
- Regelmäßigkeit
The frequency of spindle inspections depends on the operating hours and the surrounding conditions. In general, an annual inspection is recommended. For intensive use or in demanding production environments, a shorter interval, e.g. every six months, may be reasonable. Our experts will be happy to advise you individually on this topic.
What steps are involved in a spindle inspection?
HS Drive TeC performs spindle inspection according to a standardized and tested procedure:
- Visual inspection: search for visible damage such as collision damage, corrosion or other damage
- Inspection of the bearing: acoustic check for play, running noises and wear as well as measurement of the temperature
- Check of running characteristics: measurement of radial and axial run-out and any deviations
- Control of the cooling: ensuring the function of the cooling system, checking for blockages or leaks
- Analysis of the electronics: checking the function of sensors, cabling and drive modules
- Generation of a report: documentation of the results and recommendation of maintenance or repair measures
