SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The machine is provided with a number of safety
devices to protect personnel and equipment from
injury and damage. Operators should not,
however, rely solely upon these safety devices,
but should operate the machine only after fully
understanding what special precautions to take by
reading the following documentation thoroughly.
• BASIC OPERATING PRACTICES
DANGER:
1) Some control panels, transformers, motors,
junction boxes and other parts have high
voltage terminals. These should not be touched
or a severe electric shock may be sustained.
2) Do not touch any switches with wet hands.
This too, can produce an electric shock.
WARNING:
1) The emergency stop pushbutton switch
location should be well known, so that it can be
operated at any time without having to look for
it.
2) Before replacing a fuse, turn off the main
incoming power switch to the machine.
3) Provide sufficient working space to avoid
hazardous falls.
4) Water or oil can make floors slippery and
hazardous. All floors should be clean and dry
to prevent accidents
5) Do not operated any switch without a thorough
understanding of the actions about to be taken.
6) Avoid accidental operation of switches.
7) Work benches near the machine must be
strong enough to hold materials placed on
them to prevent accidents. Articles should be
prevented from slipping off the bench surface.
8) If a job is to be done by two or more persons,
coordinating signals should be given at each
step of the operation. The next step should not
be taken unless a signal is given and
acknowledged.
CAUTION:
1) In the event of power failure, turn off the main
circuit breaker immediately.
2) Use the recommended hydraulic oils, lubricants
and grease or acceptable equivalents.
3) Replacement fuses should have the proper
current ratings.
4) Protect the NC unit, operating panel, electric
control panel, etc. from shocks, since this
could cause a failure or malfunction.
5) Do not change parameters or electrical
settings. If changes are unavoidable, record
the values prior to the change so that they can
be returned to their original settings, if
necessary.
S-1
6) Do not deface, scratch or remove any caution
plate. Should it become illegible or missing,
order another caution plate from the supplier,
specifying the part number shown at the lower
right corner of the plate.
• BEFORE POWERING UP
DANGER:
Cables, cords or electric wires whose insulation
is damaged can produce current leaks and
electric shocks. Before using, check their
condition.
WARNING:
1) Be sure the instruction manual and the
programming manual are fully understood
before operating the machine. Every function
and operating procedure should be completely
clear.
2) Use approved oil resistant safety shoes, safety
goggles with side covers, safe clothes, and
other safety protection required.
3) Close all NC unit, operating panel, electric
control panel doors and covers.
CAUTION:
1) The power cable from the factory feeder switch
to the machine main circuit breaker should
have a sufficient sectional area to handle the
electric power used.
2) Cables which must be laid on the floor must be
protected from hot chips, by using rigid or
other approved conduit, so that short-circuits
will not occur.
3) Before first time operation of the machine after
unpacking it or from being idle for a long period
of time (several days or more), each sliding
part must be sufficiently lubricated. To do so,
push and release the pump button several
times until the oil seeps out on the sliding
parts. The pump button has a return spring, so
do not force it to return.
4) Oil reservoirs should be filled to indicated
levels. Check and add oil, if needed.
5) For lubrication points, oil specification and
appropriate levels, see the various instruction
plates.
6) Switches and levers should operate smoothly.
Check that they do.
7) When powering the machine on, turn on the
switches in the following order: first the factory
feeder switch, then the machine main circuit
breaker, and then the control power on switch
located on the operating panel.
8) Check the coolant level, and add coolant, if
needed.

• AFTER CONTROL POWER IS TURNED ON
CAUTION:
When the control power “ON” switch on the
operating panel is on, the "READY" lamp on
the operating panel should also be on (check to
see that it is).
• ROUTINE INSPECTIONS
WARNING:
When checking belt tensions, do not get your
fingers caught between the belt and pulley.
CAUTION:
1) Check pressure gages for proper readings.
2) Check motors, gear boxes and other parts for
abnormal noises.
3) Check the motor lubrication, and sliding parts
for evidence of proper lubrication.
4) Check safety covers and safety devices for
proper operation.
5) Check belt tensions. Replace any set of belts
that have become stretched with a fresh
matching set.
• WARM UP
CAUTION:
1) Warm up the machine, especially the spindle
and feed shaft, by running the machine for 10
to 20 minutes at about one-half or one-third the
maximum speed in the automatic operation
mode.
2) The automatic operation program should cause
each machine component to operate. At the
same time, check their operations.
3) Be particularly careful to warm up the spindle
which can turn above 4000 rpm.
If the machine is used for actual machining
immediately after being started up following a
long idle period, the sliding parts may be worn
due to the lack of oil. Also, thermal expansion
of the machine components can jeopardize
machining accuracy. To prevent this condition,
always make sure that the machine is warmed
up.
• PREPARATIONS
WARNING:
1) Tooling should conform to the machine
specifications, dimensions and types.
2) Replace all seriously worn tools with new ones
to prevent injuries.
3) The work area should be adequately lighted to
facilitate safety checks.
S-2

headstock, turret, covers and similar places
(For T/M).
CAUTION:
1) Tool lengths should be within specified
tolerances to prevent interference.
2) After installing a tool, make a trial run.
• OPERATION
WARNING:
1) Do not work with long hair that can be caught
by the machine. Tie it back, out of the way.
2) Do not operate switches with gloves on. This
could cause mis-operation.
3) Whenever a heavy workpiece must be moved,
if there is any risk involved, two or more people
should work together.
4) Only trained, qualified workers should operate
forklift trucks, cranes or similar equipment and
apply slings.
5) Whenever operating a forklift truck, crane or
similar equipment, special care should be taken
to prevent collisions and damage to the

6) Wire ropes or slings should be strong enough
to handle the loads to be lifted and should
conform to the mandatory provisions.
7) Grip workpieces securely.
8) Stop the machine before adjusting the coolant
nozzle at the tip.
9) Never touch a turning workpiece in the spindle
with bare hands, or in any other way.
10) To remove a workpiece from the machine other
than by a pallet changer, stop the tool and
provide plenty of distance between the
workpiece and the tool (for M/C).
11) While a workpiece or tool is turning, do not
wipe it off or remove chips with a cloth or by
hand. Always stop the machine first and then
use a brush and a sweeper.
12) Do not operate the machine with the chuck and
front safety covers removed (For T/M).

INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
The following subjects outline the items that
directly affect the machine installation and start-
up. To ensure an efficient and timely installation,
please follow these recommendations before
calling to schedule a service engineer.
• ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS
Note:
Avoid the following places for installing the
machine:
1) Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and/or near a
heat source, etc. Ambient temperature during
operation: 0° thru 45°C (32°F to 113°F).
2) Avoid areas where the humidity fluctuates
greatly and/or if high humidity is present;
normally 75% and below in relative humidity. A
higher humidity deteriorates insulation and
might accelerate the deterioration of parts.
3) Avoid areas that are especially dusty and/or
where acid fumes, corrosive gases and salt are
present.
4) Avoid areas of high vibration.
5) Avoid soft or weak ground (minimum load
bearing capacity of 1025 lbs./ft2)
6) In pouring grout, fasten the leveling block
base plates with the collar retaining screws
to prevent the base plates from dropping.
When the grout has completely hardened,
level the machine properly, and tighten M24
nuts to secure the machine to the
foundation.
The machine must be anchored to the
foundation with J-bolts, expansion bolts or
other suitable method.
The machine accuracy and alignment
specifications quoted by Mazak can usually
be obtained when the minimum foundation
requirements are met. However, production
of close tolerance parts requires the use of an
appropriate certified foundation. Foundations
that do not meet certified specifications may
require more frequent machine re-leveling and
re-alignment, which can not be provided
under terms of warranty.
If any of these conditions cannot be met,
contact the nearest Mazak service office
immediately.

• FOUNDATION REQUIREMENTS
For high machining accuracy, the foundation
must be firm and rigid. This is typically
accomplished by securely fastening the
machine to the foundation with anchor bolts. In
addition, the depth of concrete should be as
deep as possible (minimum 6 - 8 inches). Note
the following:
1) There can be no cracks in the foundation
concrete or surrounding area.
2) Vibration proofing material (such as asphalt)
should be put all around the concrete pad.
3) Form a “cone” in the foundation for J-bolt
anchors, or use expansion anchors.
4) With the foundation anchor bolt holes open
pour the primary concrete at a minimum
thickness of 6 - 8 inches. Typically, the
concrete must have a minimum compression
rating of 2500 lbs. @ 250 lbs. compression
and strengthened with reinforcing rods. When
the concrete has cured, rough level the
machine, and install the J-bolts, leveling blocks,
etc., and pour grout into foundation bolt holes.
5) Mix an anti-shrinkage agent such as Denka
CSA with concrete, or use Embeco grout to fill
the foundation bolt holes.

• WIRING
1) Use only electrical conductors with
performance ratings equivalent or superior.
2) Do not connect any power cables for devices
which can cause line noise to the power Desirable Independent Grounding:
distribution panel, such as arc welders and high
frequency machinery.
3) Arrange for a qualified electrician to connect NC Earth resistance:
the power lines. Machine Less than 100 ohms
4) Incoming supply voltage should not deviate
more than ±10% of specified supply voltage.
5) Source frequency should be±2 Hz of nominal Common Grounds:
frequency.

Resistance to ground
= 100 ÷ the number of
[ CAUTION ] devices connected to
the grounding (ohms)
VERIFY THE ACTUAL MACHINE ELECTRICAL
Note: Never ground equipment as shown below:
POWER REQUIREMENT AND THE MAIN
TRANSFORMER RATING (IF APPLICABLE), AS

WELL AS THE LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODE

BEFORE SIZING AND INSTALLING THE

INCOMING POWER WIRING.

PLEASE SEE THE ADDITIONAL CAUTIONS ON

THE FOLLOWING PAGE.

• GROUNDING
1) An isolated earth ground with a resistance to
ground of less than 100 ohms is required.
Typically, a 5/8” copper rod, 8 feet long, and
no more than 5 feet from the machine, is
sufficient. Building grounds or multiple
machines grounded to the same ground rod,
are not acceptable.
2) The wire size should be greater than AWG
(American Wire Gauge) No. 5 and SWG
(British Legal Standard Wire Gauge) No. 6.

S-6
Return to Library

! CAUTION

A step-down transformer is optional on some machine models. Be certain to

verify the transformer Kva rating (where applicable), as well as local electrical
code requirements before sizing and installing the incoming power wiring.
Machines not equipped with a main transformer are wired for 230 VAC, 3 phase.
The end user must supply a step-down transformer where factory electrical
power varies more than ± 10% of the 230 VAC rating.
NOTE:
Step-down or voltage regulating transformers are external (peripheral) to the
machine tool and are considered the primary input line (source) for the machine.
Local electrical code or practice may require a circuit breaker or other switching
device for the isolation of electrical power when this type of transformer is used.
In such cases, the machine tool end user is required to supply the necessary
circuit breaker or switching device.
FAILURE TO COMPLY CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND DAMAGE TO THE
MACHINE. IF ANY QUESTION EXISTS, CONTACT THE NEAREST MAZAK SERVICE
CENTER FOR ASSISTANCE.

2. OUTLINE OF THE SQT LATHE

This chapter describes coordinate axes, components location and functional principles.

2-1 Functional Principle

1. Main spindle
The main spindle is driven directly by a variable-speed AC inverter motor built into the spindle
body. The spindle is cooled by a water and air cooling system, reducing the effects of heat to
an absolute minimum.

2. Tailstock
The tailstock comprises the tail spindle which is hydraulically driven.

3. Chucks
The chucks are connected with a rotary hydraulic cylinder at the rear of the spindle by a
connecting tube. When the piston in the cylinder moves towards the chuck, the chuck jaws
open; when the piston moves away from the chuck, the chuck jaws close.

4. X-axis, Z-axis
The carriage is moved along the bed in the Z-axis direction by a Z-axis AC servo motor through
a ball screw. The turret mounted on the carriage is moved in the X-axis direction by an X-axis
AC servo motor through a ball screw.

5. Turret (SQT-200/250)
The turret has 12 faces, enabling 12 tools (rotary tools) to be mounted simultaneously.
The tool holders are of the bolt fixing type. When the lathe is performing an automatic operation,
the next command is read and the turret is rotated in the direction of the shorter route from the
position of the tool currently in use to that of the next tool.
When the lathe is in the manual mode, either clockwise rotation or counterclockwise rotation can
be selected. Except when rotating, the turret is clamped hydraulically to the turret base (the
index coupling is engaged).
When an rotating command is received, the index coupling is disengaged, and the turret is
unclamped. The turret is then rotated by the hydraulic motor until the encoder detects that the
turret has reached the position set by the command, after which the turret is clamped.

6. TOOL EYE (option for Japan and standard for export)

The TOOL EYE is a sensor mounted on the end of an arm which automatically measures the
position of the tool tip when the tool tip is brought into contact with TOOL EYE.

2-1
Return to Library

2-2 Lathe Control

The SQT lathe is controlled by MAZATROL CNC, a system featuring interactive programming and
artificial intelligence. An ultra-high-speed 32-bit microprocessor enables all lathe operations - feed
rate acceleration and deceleration, spindle acceleration and deceleration, PLC operations, turret
indexing, etc. - to be performed at high speed, and spindle and servo motor control is fully digitized.

2-4 Coordinate Axes

The coordinate axes used for the machine are defined as follows.
X-axis: This is the turret motion vertical axis.
“+” (plus) indicates the upward direction; “-” (minus) indicates the downward direction.
Z-axis: This is the turret motion transverse axis.
“+” (plus) indicates movement to the right ; “-” (minus) indicates movement to the left
(towards the chuck).

3-1-2 Procedure for Switching the Power On

DANGER
- Cables or wires with damaged insulation could cause current leakage or electric shocks.
Always check that the insulation is sound.
- There are high voltage terminals in the electrical control panel, transformers, motors,
junction boxes, etc. Never touch these terminals.
- Do not touch the switches with wet hands.

WARNING
In order to prevent the entry of water, oil, chips, dust, etc. into the electrical control panel
and other machine units, ensure that the doors of the CNC unit and electrical control panel,
and all other doors and covers, are closed.

CAUTION
Follow any instructions on the distributor for the factory power supply (for example,
instructions on a nameplate).

1. Switch on the factory power supply.

2. Turn the main breaker on the front face of the machine to the ON position.
- The power ON button (POWER I) on the operation panel will light up.
- The spindle cooling water pump, spindle cooling fan and spindle control amplifier/servo
amplifier heat sink fan will be turned on.

3. Press the power ON button (POWER I) on the operation panel.

- The light in the power ON button (POWER I) will go out.
- The “READY” lamp, which indicates that the machine is ready for operation, will light.
- The POSITION display will be displayed on the CRT screen.
- The zero-point return key (HOME) will light up and the message ZERO RETURN will be
displayed on the CRT screen.
- If the machine features the absolute position detect function (option), the automatic operation
mode key (AUTO) will light up.

3-1-4 Zero-Point Return

WARNING
- Do not press switches while wearing gloves. This could cause machine malfunction.
- In order to prevent machine malfunction, confirm the functions of switches before using
them.

CAUTION
- In the case of the optional absolute position detection specification, the record of the
machine zero point is not lost even if the power is switched off. Accordingly, it is not
necessary to perform an all-axis zero-point return operation after switching the power on.
- If the battery voltage drops the record of the machine zero point may be lost. If the
message ZERO RETURN is displayed on the CRT screen, perform an all-axis zero-point
return operation.

The zero-point return operation is important because it registers the machine zero point in the NC
unit.
When the power is switched off, the record of the machine zero point is lost. Therefore, the first
thing that has to be done after switching on the power is to perform a zero-point return operation.

1. Press the zero-point return key (HOME).

2. Move the turret and the carriage at least 30 mm (1.18 in.) in the minus direction, away from the
machine zero point by pressing the axis movement buttons.
- When detecting zero-point dog at this axis movement, axis movement direction becomes the
direction for the zero-point return and feed speed changes into “zero-point return speed”.
(Refer to Fig. 3-5.)
For example, if zero-point dog is detected when pressing X-axis movement button for minus
direction at around the X-axis home position, direction of axis movement changes to plus
direction.

3. Hold down one of the axis movement buttons for plus direction.
- Movement will stop when you release the button.
- When becoming zero-point return speed (Refer to Fig. 3-5.) after zero-point dog detecting, the
axis continues zero-point return without stop even if the button is released.

<Zero-point return speed>

In the first operation after turning on the power, deceleration is given to a rapid feed at about 30 mm
(1.18 in.) before zero point stop, and the machine reaches at its zero point at a constant zero-point
return speed and stops. Unless the power is turned off, in the second and subsequent zero-point
return operation the machine returns to the zero point with rapid feed without deceleration.

In case the record of machine zero point at

turning on the power is lost.
Feed rate

Rapid feed rate at turning on the power is limited by setting

value of parameter A3. (Standard setting value: 5 m/min)

3-1-5 Warmup Operation

The warmup operation is important for maintaining lifelong precision and the long life of the machine.
Make sure to perform the warmup operation daily.

CAUTION
- Warm up the spindle and feed axes. Do this by performing automatic operation at
between 1/2 and 1/3 of the maximum spindle speed and maximum feed rate for between
10 and 20 minutes.
- Write the program for the warmup operation so as to execute the functions of the full
range of machine components.
- If operation is to be performed at maximum spindle speed, pay meticulous attention to the
warmup operation.

* If the machine features the automatic warmup operation function (option), refer to the operating
manual for options.

3-3-2 Preparation for Gripping Workpiece (Soft Jaw Machining)

Soft jaws are machined using different methods; the method used depends on machining
conditions such as the chuck type of the workpiece. The general method is described here.

WARNING
- Close the door securely while machining.
- Never touch a rotating workpiece or spindle with your bare hands or anything else,
whatever circumstances may occur.
- Do not open or close the chuck while the spindle is rotating.

CAUTION
- Use the most appropriate soft jaws for the shape of the workpiece they are to grip, its
dimensions, material, surface roughness, and the machining conditions.
- Adjust the chuck pressure in accordance with the shape of the workpiece, its dimensions,
material, and surface roughness, and the machining conditions.
- The master jaws must be used at the central part of the optimum jaw stroke range.
- Do not strike the workpiece clamped in the chuck with a hammer or any similar
implement. This will impair machine accuracy and functions and shorten machine life.
- Finish the zD diameter to the same dimension as the part of the workpiece to be gripped
(to approximately H7). During machining, set the same chuck pressure as that used to
grip the workpiece or a little higher.
- Soft jaws are machined by intermittent cutting. Make the spindle speed as low as
possible accordingly. During machining, use an internal cutting tool of small ejection to
prevent chipping or chattering.

5-1-1 Construction and operation

1. Spindle
The Spindle is directly driven by the built-in motor without using reduction gears or drive belts.
This built-in motor construction converts the power generated by the AC inverter motor into
machining power without mechanical loss. During manual operation the required spindle speed
(in units of 10 rpm) is input directly to the CNC. During automatic operation, the spindle speed is
controlled by the constant cutting speed (peripheral speed) control mode. The spindle is cooled
with coolant and air.

Chuck

Fig. 5-1 Construction of Headstock

2. Chuck
The chuck is connected with a rotary hydraulic cylinder at the rear of the spindle by a
connecting rod. When the piston in the cylinder moves towards the power chuck, the chuck
jaws open; when it moves away from the power chuck, the chuck jaws close.
The collet chuck is clamped by forward movement of the piston or unclamped by backward
movement of the piston.

2. Greasing for the chuck jaws

DANGER
The specified grease must be used.
Insufficient greasing may deteriorate the gripping force of the chuck and thus cause the
workpiece to fly about during machining.
The power must be turned off before greasing.

A. To operate the chuck in its best condition over a long time, it is important to grease the chuck
jaws at the appropriate time. Greasing must be provided correctly and sufficiently.
Otherwise, malfunctions at low oil pressure, insufficient gripping force, decreases in gripping
accuracy, unusual wear, and/or thermal damage may result.

5-3
Return to Library

B. Grease the chuck jaws from the grease nipples provided on the outer periphery of each
master jaw. Greasing must be executed at least once a week using a grease gun. In cases
where high-speed rotation and a large amount of water-soluble coolant oil are to be used,
increase the frequency of greasing according to the particular operating conditions.

* Recommended grease: Grease for Kitagawa chucks

Molycoat EP Grease (manufactured by Dow Coning)

Notes:
1. After working, the chuck body and the jaw sliding surfaces must be completely cleaned using
an air gun.
2. Use corrosion-preventive coolant water. Otherwise, the inside of the chuck body may
corrode and thus result in deterioration of its gripping force.

5-2 Turret

5-2-1 Construction and operation (See Fig. 5-8)

1. The turret consists of the following component parts.

A. Turret base unit

The base unit of the turret is where the turret component parts are mounted. It is fixed to the
X-axis linear motion guide.

B. Turret head
The turret head has 12 faces and each face (position) may be mounted with a cutting tool.

C. Hydraulic index motor

The index motor drives the turret head hydraulically.

2. The turret head is hydraulically clamped to the turret base while it is not rotating. The index
coupling with which the turret head is engaged ensures accurate indexing of the turret head to
the required tool position.

3. When the turret rotation command becomes active, the turret head is disengaged from the index
coupling and unclamped. The turret head is then rotated by the hydraulic index motor. The
turret head position is detected by the encoder; when the turret head is indexed to the
commanded position, the hydraulic motor stops and the turret head is clamped to the turret
base.
During automatic operation, the turret rotation direction is determined from the currently located
turret head position and the target index position so that it will rotate in the shortest way.
During manual operation, the turret rotation direction is selected as required - FWD (forward,
clockwise viewed from the turret face) and REV (reverse, counterclockwise viewed from the
turret face).

5-3 TOOL EYE (Motor Drive Type)

5-3-1 Construction and operation

The TOOL EYE is used to measure the tool tip position for the tool set measurement function and
automatic tool wear compensation function.
The arm of the TOOL EYE swings into (extending) the measuring position by a torque motor. The
sensor mounted in the arm tip measures the tool tip position by bringing it into contact with the
sensor. After completion of measurement, the arm retracts to the standby position (retracting).
Completion of arm motion is confirmed by proximity switches (SQ-7 for extend and SQ-8 for
retraction).

5-4 X- and Z-axes

5-4-1 Construction and operation

1. X- and Z-axes
The turret base and the carriage are driven respectively by the X-axis or Z-axis AC servo- motor
via the ball screw to move in the respective direction. The position encoder is located at the
end of the motor and the motor is directly connected to the ball screw by coupling ensuring high
positioning accuracy.

2. Principle of zero return

The reference point of the turret, called “machine zero point”, is located within the turret travel
range. The NC unit establishes the machine coordinate system in which the machine zero point
is taken as the origin of the coordinate system. Turret position is controlled in reference to the
origin of the machine coordinate system. Just after the power supply has been turned on, the
NC unit has no data of the machine zero point. To establish the zero point, perform the zero
return operation before starting automatic operation.
By performing the zero return operation, a predetermined point is established as the machine
zero point in the following manner.

A. When the zero return key on the operation panel is pressed, the zero return mode signal is
turned on.

B. Using the axis movement switches, move the turret to the zero point of respective axis.

C. When the zero point limit switch is tripped by the dog, the deceleration signal is turned on,
turret motion is decelerated, and the turret moves at the predetermined feedrate.

5-19
Return to Library

D. After the zero point limit switch is released from the dog, the turret continuously moves to the
point far from the last grid signal by the amount preset in parameter BS12. (This is the
electrical zero point.) The turret further moves from this point by the zero shift amount set in
parameter BS13. This position is stored by the NC as the machine zero point.
Parameter settings for SQT-200/250 are as follows

Axis Parameter Setting Parameter Setting

X-axis BS12 10 (fixed) BS13 Shift amount from the electrical to the machine zero
Z-axis BS12 12 (fixed) BS13 point (variable, machine-specific)

E. The grid signal is always turned on at the fixed position unless the relative position between
the encoder input shaft and the ball screw is not changed. The zero point shift amount is a
fixed amount set with a parameter in the NC.

5-4-2 Lubrication

The lubrication unit supplies lubricating oil to the linear motion guide blocks, ball screws and ball
screw nuts. Lubricant is automatically supplied every 6 minutes (for 50Hz) or 5 minutes (for 60Hz)
by the electrical intermittent lubrication pump unit at the left front side of the machine.

5-4-3 Adjustment

Backlash compensation

The following factors between the X- or Z-axis position encoder and the turret generate errors
between the axis motion command value and actual turret position.

- Backlash in bearings and ball screws

- Ball screw pitch deviation
Backlash in the mechanical power transmission system is an unavoidable factor.
A too small backlash imposes overload on bearings, gears and other mechanical parts causing
noise and shortening their life.
The NC has the ability to compensate electronically for errors generated in the mechanical system.
This is called the backlash compensation function.
The backlash compensation function is factory-set to the optimum condition and will not need
further adjustment after installation of the machine. However, if this does not compensate for
backlash-caused error during a long period of use, the backlash compensation data can be set
again.
The backlash compensation data can be set by changing the parameter data stored in the NC.
Tool to be used: Dial indicator

(a) Feed the turret in the “plus” (+) direction by 50 mm (2.0 in.) in rapid feed.
(b) Set the dial indicator at the “minus” side of the turret and set the reading to “0”.
Set the dial indicator at the headstock as shown in Fig. 5-17 for measuring lost motion.
(c) Feed the turret further in the “plus” direction by 50 mm (2.0 in.) in rapid feed.
(d) Return the turret in the “minus” (-) direction by 50 mm (2.0 in.).
(e) Read the dial indicator.
The value read by the dial indicator shows the amount of “lost motion” which is the total
mechanical system error including backlash.

Setting machine zero point

If the relative position between the encoder input shaft and the ball screw has been shifted, for
example if the coupling has been removed and installed again, the zero point position may be
shifted. In such cases, set the machine zero point anew.
* Whether the zero point limit switch is ON or OFF can be checked in I/O MONITOR area on the
DIAGNOSIS (MONITOR) display.

5-7 Lubrication Unit and Lubrication Circuit

5-7-1 Construction and operation

1. The lubrication unit supplies lubricating oil to the linear guides and ball screws of the X- and Z-
axis and to the tailstock slideway.

2. The electrical intermittent lubricating pump unit is mounted at the left front of the machine, and
supplies lubricating oil to the above lubricating points at intervals of 6 minutes (for 50Hz) or 5
minutes (for 60Hz).

3. The supply volume of the lubricating oil is adjusted by the flow unit mounted at the end of the
lubrication pipe.
* The flow unit is a kind of joint used in the lubrication circuit and functions as a valve that
allows lubricating oil to flow only in one direction. If the pump pressure drops, it prevents
lubricating oil from flowing in the reverse direction, thereby protecting the machine from
problems occurring from the reverse flow of lubricating oil.

4. If an error occurs in the lubrication system, the pressure switch in the lubrication piping is
activated, and alarm message 260 SLIDEWAY LUBRICATION ALARM will be displayed on
the CRT screen.

4. Changing the coolant

Headstock coolant must be replaced quickly without interruption. If the headstock is left drained
of coolant or becomes filled with distilled water, corrosion may occur. Waste coolant must be
disposed of legally.
Replace headstock coolant in accordance with the following procedure, depending on coolant
consumption rate (discoloration)

A. When headstock coolant is not low or discolored

(1) After turning off the power, remove all remaining coolant by blowing air through the pipe
using an air compressor.
(2) Sufficiently stir previously diluted coolant (50 % dilution) and fill the tank.
(3) Run the machine for about 10 minutes to circulate coolant throughout the entire cooling
system. Confirm that the coolant has been spread throughout the system sufficiently as
indicated by the lowered level of coolant in the tank. Add cooling water according to the
particular decrease in oil level.
(4) Replacement is complete.

B. When headstock coolant is low or discolored

(1) After turning off the power, remove all remaining coolant by blowing air through the pipe
using an air compressor.
(2) Pour distilled water or ion exchanged water into tank and circulate to clean for about 15
minutes.
(3) Drain water for cleaning using the same procedure as in A.
(4) Immediately pour new coolant previously diluted to 50 % density into tank after stirring the
coolant.
(5) Run the machine for about 10 minutes to circulate coolant throughout the entire cooling
system. Confirm that the coolant has been spread throughout the system sufficiently as
indicated by the lowered level of coolant in the tank. Add cooling water according to the
particular decrease in oil level.
(6) Replacement is complete.

C. When headstock coolant gets too low or too discolored, check for the following:

(1) Check that recommended coolant was used.

(2) Check that distilled or ion-exchanged water was used to dilute coolant.
(3) Check that the used coolant density was 50 %.
(4) Check if oil or foreign matter was mixed into coolant in the headstock coolant tank.

Thorough cleaning is required in this case. After checking the above conditions, contact the
nearest MAZAK distributor.

- Only authorized workers should use a forklift or crane, or lift the machine using wire
ropes.
- When operating a forklift or crane, care should be taken not to hit other objects.
- Use wire rope or a sling that can tolerate the weight to be lifted.
- Check the chain block, wire rope or sling, hoist, or other lifting equipment before using
them. Never use defective wire rope/slings or lifting equipment.

CAUTION
- The machine must be lifted properly. Lift the machine slightly from the floor to check if it
is well balanced.
- The angle made by the wire rope or sling must be less than 60°.
- When two or more workers are working together to lift the machine, they should cooperate
carefully using signals.
- When lifting the machine, great care should be taken not to shock the machine, NC unit,
or electrical control cabinet.
- Before lifting the machine, check that each machine unit is fixed in position and that there
are no tools or other objects on the machine.
* The coolant unit will be delivered separately.

1. Preparation for lifting

A. Fix the turret, the saddle, the tailstock, and the TOOL EYE (Japan: option, export: standard),
with power on.
Fix the turret at a distance of -185 mm (- from the zero point of the X-axis, that is, an
overtravel position in the minus direction of the X-axis).
Fix the saddle at the origin of the Z-axis.
Fix the tailstock at its backward end stop.
Fix the TOOL EYE at its backward end stop (retraction position). Refer to Subsection 6-2-3.

B. Turn off the machine power and the main power of the factory, and disconnect the factory
power - machine power connection cable from the circuit breaker of the machine.

C. Disconnect the cable and hose of the coolant unit (pump) from the machine.
Disconnect the cable by disconnecting the cannon connector from the side of the electrical
control cabinet.
Disconnect the hose from the pump. The residual coolant within the hose flows out. Receive
this coolant using a waste oil can. The total amount of outflow is about two liters.
Completely wipe away any coolant that may have spilled over the floor. Otherwise, workers
may overturn during lifting.

6-7
Return to Library

D. Drain out the coolant from the coolant tank, then separate the tank from the machine, and
move the tank away to where the machine can be lifted smoothly.

E. Remove the anchor bolts from the machine.

2. Procedure to lift the machine (See Fig. 6-3)

A. Place the wire ropes on the bed hook (1 place) and on the both ends of the pipe that passes
the bed.
Use a wire rope and a pipe described in Fig. 6-4.
Use a crane with a 5 ton (11025 lbs) capacity or larger for lifting the machine.

B. Place the wire ropes on the crane hook.

Place wood blocks or pads between the machine and wire ropes so that the machine will not
be damaged.

Fig. 6-3 Lifting the Machine

C. Raise the arm of the crane to such an extent that the wire ropes become taunt, and make
sure that the ropes are firmly hooked on the machine body and at the chain block. If the
ropes are not correctly hooked, slacken and rehook them.

D. After checking that the wire ropes are correctly hooked, operate the crane to lift the machine.

6-3-2 Grounding

1. All electrical devices must be grounded in order to protect personnel and machines from
electrical hazards. Grounding must be performed after the machine has been installed in
accordance with the standards for electrical equipment.

2. Ideally, the grounding point should be as close as possible to the machine, but depending on the
machine installation site this may not always be possible.

3. The work must be performed by personnel with publicly recognized qualifications. This will
depend on the size of the company, but generally there will be a chief engineer or someone
licensed to perform electrical work who should be asked to carry out the work. The work to be
done is basically class 3 grounding.
Grounding resistance: 100 ] max.
Cross-sectional area of wires: A half or more cross-sectional area of primary incoming cable
(at least 30 mm2 (0.046 in2)).
Measuring equipment: 500 V megger

WARNING
The grounding work must be entrusted to an electrical engineer with publicly recognized
qualifications. If the work is done by an unqualified person, it could result in serious
injury, death, or damage to the machine.

4. The connections between the machines and ground should be made as indicated below.

WARNING
Never perform wiring as shown below.

When the grounding work is performed, no more than one wire should be connected to
any terminal. The reason for this is to prevent a serious accident. For example, if a wiring
plan like the one shown above is used, a faulty connection at one of the terminals could
cause short-circuited current from another terminal to be fed back to the machine,
resulting in serious damage.
