1 TURRET Refer to the Maintenance Manual -M-314A for more information. Introduction The turret is mounted on top of the cross slide. The turret top plate is raised (unclamped) and lowered (clamped) by pneumatic (air) pressure and then is indexed by a motor, gearbox, and belt driven system. The best place to gain access to the turret components is from the front of the machine with the turret covers off which means that the rear guard (safety cage) needs to be removed and, then, turret covers taken off. Power-Down Procedure Whenever the safety cage is removed the machine must be powered down. A detailed procedure to power down and lock out the machine appears in M-314A Maintenance Manual Chapter 2 - Power-Up Procedure. 1.Be certain that Cycle Start is not active. Pushbutton light is OFF. 2.Be certain that the program has been completed and that the spindle and slides are stationary. 3.Press the EMERGENCY STOP pushbutton. 4.Rotate the Control On/Off switch counterclockwise to OFF position ( ). 5.Turn off and lock out the main air valve or disconnect the air source from the machine. 6.Turn off and lock out the main electrical disconnect switch.

3 Turret Assembly Alignment Check turret face for parallel to X axis move. 1. Mount indicator to check turret face. 2. Move X axis to check for straightness of.0005 in a 4 move. If out of specification: 1. Remove turret covers 2. Install special tool: turret alignment block at right side of turret base to help move the turret body. 3. Loosen the 4 screws that mount the turret housing to the cross slide. 4. Adjust turret housing until turret top plate face is straight. 5. Tighten down the turret screws to 100 ft.lbs. After turret re-alignment, the turret belt and encoder belt tensions must be checked. Set turret down Switch gap to.047 Refer to the Maintenance Manual M-314A for Sonic belt settings. Standard is : Encoder belt =.08 inch deflection at.36 to.64 pounds push. Main Turret belt =.14 inch deflection at 22.6 to 24.5 pounds push. Down switch Four Screws For Turret Body Alignment 3

4 Note: If Turret face is out of specification, check the tram of X axis slide to casting. To verify the X axis dovetail has not moved. To check dovetail tram for straightness: 1. Jog X axis in the plus direction as far as it will go. 2. Mount indicator base to the bottom of the turret as shown. 3. Place indicator needle on casting at left side right below the dovetail bed. 4. Slowly Jog X axis down to the bottom of the dovetail while observing the indicator. 5. You should have no more than + or Maximum in 4.5 inch move. 6. If out of spec the dovetail probably has moved and the dovetail pin(s) are broken or bent. Refer to replacement procedures. Indicate this machined side of the casting surface Turret Top Plate Radial Alignment Check turret for radial alignment. Note: Headstock and turret face must be straight before aligning turret top plate. 1. Mount indicator into spindle. 2. Move X axis to position X minus ( X 0.00 for VDI top plate). 3. Move Z axis so you can sweep ID of turret bore.( not tool holder) 4. Move X axis for 0.0 reading in X plane, rotate indicator 90 degrees check for reading of +/ inch. ( for VDI +/ ) 4

5 If out radial : 1. Remove the number plate from the face of turret. 2.Loosen outer circle of 8 M10 screws no more than 2 turns. 3.Rotate the top plate radial (might be easier to drop air pressure to 30 psi) 4.Once radial aligned, tighten down the 8 M10 screws until all are set to 25 ft. lb., then to 50 ft. lb. 5.Recheck ID of turret bore. Outer Circle of screws Reading should be zero top to bottom and within +/ in and out. X home setup may be required if X position is off in the X plane. Note: Also there is a radial alignment bar to use. Mount the bar to the face of the turret and then indicate the top of the bar while moving X axis, check for radial straightness. Then verify headstock is in alignment with turret by sweeping the turret bore. 5
