Hi everyone,
98 VF4.
My kid is trying to understand how someone might diagnose runout with toolholders in the spindle. We've done the taper checks (clean and and bluing test) w/ tool holders. Bought quality tool holders. But.. we only have basic ebay and amazon cheapy pullstuds.
He has checked the spindle run out.. it's max 2 tens. everytime.
He looks up in the spindle cone and we snapped pics w/ the bore-scope. Link below to gdrive w/ pics.
spindle - Google Drive
As he keeps trying combinations of his newer quality toolholders (kennemetal, Regofix, types) with his pullstuds it changes. sometimes a thou.. sometimes up to 3 or 4 thou even. (at the actual cutter shaft and insert hole ). He determins the best side (180) and marks the polarity for each toolholder to east dog.
I just ordered some quality Maritool pull studs. But he's seen posts on drawbar and bellville washers? but I have not had any time to research either. If not this... then where does he go next?
We do not have a drawbar tester... but Didn't I see some type of device you pop in the spindle as a standard or something?
thanks folks.
