Addendum to my OM2 instructions say every tool must be balanced as an assembly to G1 or G2.5 per ANSI yada yada before high speed run and after every time tool is changed or moved in tool holder! Is there a balancing machine anyone uses for this or is this generally ignored? Now assuming tools are balanced at build, but it does say after any tool is loaded or moved. Also, they ask for a 20 minute spindle warm-up after 2 hours of non-use. How do you fit that into schedules? Or leave it running at a low speed? Also, Mastercam or MDI for small second/third op type programs?
Thanks!!
