Hi Guys
I have a couple of questions on the Spindle Motor and Controllers that are used on the HAAS Milling machines.
(1) How does the Spindle Motor keep track of the Spindle to stop it in the correct position so that the tags on the Tool Holders line up with the grooves in the Spindle during a tool change?
(2) Also while performing a Rigid Tapping operation how does the Spindle Motor know the position of the tap so that the threads lined up each time the tap enters the hole?
(3) What type of motor is used for the Spindle Motor on the HAAS machines to give it such actuate control for Tapping, etc?
Interested in reading any information that is available on these types of Spindle Motors?
Does HAAS offer any information on there operation?
Thanks for your help with my questions.
Regards
Bill
