can someone post the short warm up program the twenty min one new guy deleted it.


Also one the VM2 do i need to check spindle oil level and if so where do I find it.

thanks for any help you could give me
 
The way lube system supplies the oil for the spindle bearings, So as long as the way lube tank has oil in it and the pump works,you are good.

If you have a gearbox on your machine, you check the oil level in the transmission by pouring oil down the fill pipe on the top of the spindle head.It will start to leak out the overflow when it's full.
 
Forget what I said about the gearbox.Haas doesn"t have one on the VM series machines-It has an inline spindle.

I'll try to give you one from memory.
It goes something like.......

M6T1;
M3S500 G04 P5000;
S1000 G04 P5000;
S1500 G04 P5000;
S2000 G04P5000;
etc.

Not sure if those "p" numbers are too long or short of a dwell for you.
Give it a shot and adjust them if needed.
You can go up as high as you want on RPM's but I wouldn't go past 3 or 4 grand.

I used to run an older machine and in addition to the spindle, I'd run the axes back and forth, up and down, too. The servos in that old girl took a while to warm up if you were running something with a tight tolerance, you had to treat her right.;)
 
CNC lathe machine warm up cycle.

This is a sample warm-up cycle for a Haas lathe.

As always, make sure the lathe turret is clear of the chuck before running this program.
