I am looking some opinions on how my machine is operating.
the machine shakes quite badly on rapids and direction changes on feed. bought the machine new 6 months ago and have had this problem from the start.
The tool rack jumps about, the shelve shakes to the point where i can't leave stuff on it. basically every thing shakes.
Haas have been far from useful to me. Two engineers have been out and have said its not right, but that doesn't seem to carry much weight.
They have suggested bolting it to the ground, but on the Haas web site it says these machines do not need bolted down.
So why does mine need bolted down ?
The Engineers have done software upgrades, basically slowed the rapids down to 50% and the feed rates also smoothed out. But it didn't help.
Is there anyone on here with a Smm2 that can give me some advice please.
many thanks
