I'm having issues with premature work rest blade failure in out Glebar TF9 DHD machine. After a new set up we're only getting days to a week run on the blade before the it wears through at the back edge of the work and reg wheels. We are sending a .0068" wire into a paddle stop where it's being plunge ground to a .0048" barrel OD. Set ups on this machine used to run for weeks now a week is amazing. Glebar thought it was a coolant issue, running Cimtech 500, and said that for further assistance they would need $250/hr for tech support. Have changed some consumables in the last month while this has been happening. Work wheel and reg wheel due to wear, diamond to try and fix the issue, and changed coolant and did tank clean per preventive maintenance schedule. Nothing has produced different results. One thought was an interaction between the way oil, Lubriplate SPO-222 and the coolant. Had to change to the SPO-222 a little over a year ago because of vendor issues with our old way oil but it was spec'd out to be comparable and has ran without these issues during that year. Any thought on this would be helpful.
