Hello, I am looking for a little help in adjusting the spindle bearings on my mill. I am hoping to improve the surface finish I get when cutting with the side of the end mill. I have had this machine for a few years now and it has been a good one but it always leaves a poor finish on the vertical surfaces. Has anyone else had this problem? It does a little better when I climb the finish cut but it is not comparable to the finishes I used to get at work on the old bridgeports. I am really not expecting any miracles here and I realize you get what you pay for. I am just looking for a little insight as to what is causing this. Is it the runout on the spindle itself? Or is it the bearings they used? I am sure they don't use the same ones as the big boys. Will the ballscrews help when I get them on? It also could be worth mentioning that my belt drive could use some smoothing out. could this affect the finish? Has anyone tried those belts you put together in links? Alot of questions I know but thanks for taking the time to read my post.
