When I was just starting out I crashed an auxiliary spindle because the programmer interrupted me just as I was setting the Z offset. Plunged straight into the magnetic base... I look to the side and there he is, the owner... He looks at it, and goes away. 5 min later he is back with two Budweisers, opens the bottles throwing the caps in the scrap bin, gives one to me, and asks "so... what's the plan now?" LOL chillest boss ever.

@@platin2148 This was in a VMC, in a moldmaking company. The spindle was there to raise the max RPM for a raster finish OP (it got rebuilt at a later date). Here's what I did: -Checked the entire machine for additional unseen damage -Checked the perpendicularity if the main spindle to the table using a precision granite square -Stoned out the high spots on the magnetic chuck -Re-aligned and re-centered the part -Removed the damaged spindle, put a new endmill on Kojex toolholder (TRIPLE CHECKING THE Z OFFSET THIS TIME) and then ran the program at a reduced feed to account for the reduced RPM. Job turned out fine. Might I add, this all happened at 4:30PM on a friday LOL!

Being a tradesmen in Machine Tool Repair. I've had to repair many operators mistakes. Many of them were experienced craftsmen. The most memorable one was we just rebuilt a 50' gear slasher and the operator, while setting up the machine, forgot to move the steadyrest out of the way and jammed the table. Done horrible damage to the machine. Luckily, most of the damage was to the differential gearbox and the main workwheel on the table wasn't damaged. The operator had 25 years in the craft and it goes to show that mistakes can happen to the best of them.

Two things: The biggest thing I tell people is, if it doesn't look right, it probably isn't. The other thing is, the only time I will EVER get upset at someone in a shop, is when they don't respect the fact that the machines will kill you. Things like opening the door while it's running, loosening a vice while it's rapiding. Sticking your head in the machine while it's stopped but on memory mode ON 100% rapid. I'm huge on that. Always put the machine on edit mode if you have to put yourself in such an unfortunate position. There's so much more, and it's the only time I use the word 'fired', as in, in any other shop, that would have gotten them fired, because it's better than the alternative, which is death or disfigurement.

This is truth. We had a new programmer come in and his programs were absolutely dogshit. Not because he was a bad programmer but because he wasn't used to going back and forth on FANUC and OKUMA consoles. The G codes are different and a single typo can send your tool rapid into a spindle doing 4000rpm. We had a few crashes in his first months but he became a solid programmer. It's (usually) not an operators fault when there's a crash, he's just there to change inserts, change offsets, and press the green button. Usually that's on the setup guy or the programmer. Unfortunately it's the operator that will get a jaw thrown through his skull or his arm ripped off on someone else's mistake. Please stay safe in the shop.

@laserflexr6321
@laserflexr6321 2 года назад
"I always go top down" That should be a cardinal rule. My take on that same idea is to develop a sequence, check this, check that and do it the same way every time so that it becomes habit so if your mind is on something else, your autopilot will catch a lot of potential mistakes. When when you become a go to guy with responsibilities beyond that one machine, you will increasingly have to stop to answer a question, or go take care of something else, when you come back to the setup, start back at the top of your checklist and go line by line to make sure you dont skip anything. Once the whole setup is completed, go over each step in your setup sequence again. I cant tell you how many times I prevented a blow up by going through my setup sequence again and catching that an offset was not changed or recorded, I skipped over changing out a tool or tightening a clamp, it happens when you are pulled 40 directions. For me it is an emotional moment when I catch my own mistake, kicking myself for missing it on the first pass, knowing what could have happened if I had not double checked and at the same time celebrating that I caught it and didnt blow anything up. It can happen, it will happen if you become overconfident and dont double check so dont get cocky about it or you will be humbled, and as this video describes it can be severely humbling. The big boss might write off a chipped 1/2" endmill as normal wear and tear but if you wreck a clamp and warp a spindle, the big boss will never forget that and it will take years to earn back trust. Not everyone is capable of being a machinist, a few just arent smart enough to grasp it all, some dont have the attention span, perception and sustained focus to notice when something isnt quite right or too slow to abort properly when they do notice, some cant handle the physical aspects of it, but the main issue that precludes someone being a good machinist is that some wont accept full responsibility for their own actions.

@Dyna78
@Dyna78 2 года назад
Regarding the results of a big crash, even though that $15,000 price tag for repairs sounds bad by itself, that's not even the true cost. Machine down time for repair (or sitting idle if it cannot be used until repaired) is a 'hidden cost,' not to mention potential scrap costs of making parts that are out of tolerance due to the damaged machine's inability to hold tolerances/make accurate parts. This may not seem like a huge issue in a larger operation with multiple machines, but if it's a one-person shop and you just crashed your only machine...OUCH! And then there is the 'fear factor,' the operator's drop in confidence as they may now be unsure of what happened and how to prevent it from happening again, resulting in longer setup times, running everything at 10% rapid, etc. Of course, this would be the least of my worries as I'd want people to be confident in what they are doing, not just because they THINK they set it up correctly, but because they KNOW, after physically checking, etc.

Forty plus years in the trade - top machinist in the shop, one of the top programmers, and still every so often I destroy something (usually because of a distraction), once a thirty thousand dollar detail. This is exactly why I take issue with running any more than two machines or them not being near each other. I've had to run as many as four machines at once - none near the others. I've butt heads with managers and owners over the above problem as well as the habit of some operators paying more attention to something other than their machines, all it takes is one broken tool/insert, an improperly setup job or a hand tool left in the machine to end up costing thousands of dollars. Too much 'multitasking' is false economy, one healthy mistake wipes out any money saved by overloading operators and machinists!

Even if a setup takes 3 hours, that’s better than the machine being down for days and thousands spent on repairs. With time, you’ll get a groove going during setups and you’ll be faster AND more confident.

There a a few rules in my company: - Never talk to a person who has his hands on the machine. Wait until he's ready. - Never trust a new program or a program you run the first time that day. Stay at the machine, hand on the feed regulator. - If you tamper with the safety equipment of a machine, you are fired. The only really bad crashes we had so far was a faulty CAM post processor (no tilt table reset when changing the coordinate system) and a bug in the machine controls (not stopping the spindle after resuming an interrupted tool change): A complete geometry overhaul and a new tool changer gearbox. Fortunately there was a machine insurance covering these damages. The other crashes were below 2k (mainly on the CNC lathe).

Sometimes it's best to not be friends with a boss. I worked for my best friend for a couple years and I slacked off at times. Working for a hard boss that will fire you in a heartbeat is good for you, you learn a lot faster and you work much differently. I had another boss that was a terrific guy, but he had his hard side when you messed up. The worst thing you could do is make a simple mistake that would have been avoided by taking 5 seconds to ask a question instead of charging ahead. A little bit of fear and respect helps on the job sometimes.

Details are very important, even a decimal point can be disastrous. About 10 years ago I was near a Cincinnati Maxim that a tool was off by a decimal point. The tombstone took the tool holder right out of the spindle. 40 feet away was too close on that one.

Just did that a couple of weeks ago. Floating tap holder, 1/4-20 threaded hole . . . was talking to a guy while I was modifying the program in the post-editor and trying to finish up this part. Instead of 0.400" deep I missed the decimal place and it actually ended up being 4.000". Had my finger on the e-stop but it didn't matter. By the time I realized it looked weird, it had already driven the toolholder into the part. Luckily it was aluminum so it only destroyed the part, the tap, and the collet (checked runout on the holder, it was fine). Could have been way worse but now I make sure if I'm talking to someone (customer or employee) I make them wait until I am done with the post editor.

One friend had a 5 axis Hermele....and the feed knob was just worn out.... Always with first time running a program he reduced feed from 30 m per minute to slow...and when finally through program he left it 100 percent. But 1 time I saw an sk40 toolholder cracked from top to bottom. Dont ask he said...... there was a huge T-drill of 50mm in a workpiece still 15 mm in it. It had to be lifted out in manual mode then moved in either x or y axis then lifted 15 mm down. Then automatic tool change could be done. But customer came walking in asking : is it ready?? He answered: yes ...only have to retract the 50 mm T-drill out ... And he pushes on the automatic tool change knob.... Then in high speed the y axis pulled the tool behind for bringing it to toolchanger in highest speed....completely ruining the sk40 cone , the spindle bearings , the geometry of the z and y axis.....and the workpiece which off course was expensive and a complete factory was standing still.... Damage : 55000 dollars..... only on the milling machine.

Early in my career I learned this lesson the hard way. Was working on an FMS, running 6 Makino Mag1s and 2 workstations. We had a job that was set on a wide fixture surrounded a 5' billet of aluminum that had multiple floating clamps. There was a probing program that probed clearances on those clamps to make sure they were out of the way of the toolpath. So set the job and sent the fixture into a machine to pick up datums and run the probe. So I was trained to adjust the clamps to the probing path because if you'd send it back to the workstation, you'd lose all reference for the probe path. I did that and everything was done. Now here comes the brain fart. Since I was at the machine I became complacent and thought it ran like any other standalone machine. There was a Z retract at the beginning of the program for safety so I could close the door and press start. Neglecting the fact that this was an FMS and by pressing the start button the server would erase the current program and load a different program to run the toolpath. In a fraction of a second before I could look up at the screen, BOOM! The first move in the toolpath was a b axis rotation that had the fixture slap the spindle upside the head. Probe went flying, housing cracked and the 120kw spindle cocked in a way I've never seen spindles moved before then or anytime after. I just stood there dumbfounded in shock and when I realized what happened, I knew it was the end of my career. Went back to a workstation to fill out a crash report and called my supervisor. Well after the investigation they found that they couldn't blame me and it was due to a procedural issues and bad training. Cost of the crash was north of 300k and I was surprised that I was just told to be more careful. I still blame myself for being so complacent and have changed my process to reflect that. Every action you take must be intentional and you must KNOW the result of it. Making assumptions and being complacent during setup is unnecessarily risky. I've made other mistakes but that was the most damage I've ever done.

@@joshmdmd I‘ve forgot to mention that I always go in at 5% of the rapid feed rate, so I can see trouble coming when the tool comes too close to the part.

@Dyna78
@Dyna78 2 года назад
Yes, things can be knocked out of alignment very easily, even with a relatively minor 'bump.' Some people will just be relieved that the machine still runs and "looks okay," but accuracy will usually suffer. On vertical mills, a crash can tilt the Z axis a bit so that your drills are not really drilling straight/perpendicular to the table, endmills cut at a slight angle, etc. Some of the more common CNC lathe crashes involve crashing a turret into the tailstock, causing the centerline of the tailstock to be below the centerline of the spindle/chuck. This can cause extreme taper on parts (usually larger diameter towards the tailstock). When the turret hits the tailstock (or chuck!) it can be pushed up/away from the centerline of the spindle so that drills, boring bars are no longer parallel with the axis of movement (usually Z, on a lathe), which leads to drilled holes being tapered, taps breaking, etc. Most machines have some sort of method of re-aligning (using tapered pins, etc.) so that they CAN be fixed, but that obviously costs more money and down time. Another likely result of any crash involving the spindle (Z axis crash on a mill, running a turret into the chuck on a lathe, etc.) is that the spindle bearings will be damaged. The machine may still "run okay," but the damage has been done. As far as things getting bent, I'm not sure if the castings necessarily get bent, but I do know of two CNC lathes that have broken the casting where the tool turret mounts to the X-axis slide. One was an Okuma and was the result of a very hard full-speed rapid crash, (turret into the chuck) and the other was on a Miyano, which was found during 'routine maintenance.' No one really knows what happened on that one (well, I bet someone does!) but I can't imagine it being the result of anything other than a hard crash.

@@daveyt4802 Yes, I'm sure there is a setting like that, though it's been a while since I've looked into any of the parameters so I don't know that it can be adjusted or if it is basically set at the factory. There are load meters on all axes and at some point they will stall and 'alarm out,' though that point is different for different axes/machines, etc. A lathe I used to run would often show a Z-axis load of 100-150+% while drilling Inconel, and would run that way all day, every day until the job was complete. It would alarm out if crashed, but the "load meter" seemed totally inaccurate, so I am not sure how it was calculated.

The tool that didn’t exist and had no offset. The machine then tried to mill the part with an empty spindle with the face (double contact to make things better) of the spindle. $43k gone in the blink of an eye

i was drilling something on a horizontal table mill. BIG ass mill. well when we chucked a part up to start over, we must have hit the table feed lever with a fork because it's sort of out of the way where you can't bump into it easily. anyway, the feed was going so slowly that you couldn't really tell it was moving with your eye without sitting still and looking at it for a while lol. so i am waiting for this big spade bit to creep through the part and i'm sweeping the floor. depending on the bit, it can take a pretty long time to get through there. well the table feed was moving roughly at the same speed that the drill was feeding in, so it just scooped a big chunk laterally away from center toward the outer bolt circle. it's the craziest looking piece of scrap metal ever. everybody asks, "what in the hell happened to that thing," when they're walking through the shop.

Drilled just below the titanium clad. Had to be welded. Was told it cost the company almost 300k. Made the mistake because of the way the machine operates differently compared to the other two not to mention all the overtime I put in and things going on at home.
