How to Install Cutting Tools for Woodworking Carving Machines

Correctly installing the cutting tools of a woodworking carving machine can result in higher accuracy in carving patterns. The tool will not easily break during use. How to quickly and correctly install the cutting tools of a woodworking carving machine? The technicians of Roctech CNC have listed the steps for installing the cutting tools of the woodworking carving machine for us. Next, let's take a look. I hope it can be helpful to you.

    1.There are many gaps on the chuck. Before each clamping tool, it is necessary to wipe the chuck clean with gasoline or WD40 cleaning agent, and then we need to inspect and remove any residue in the gap of the chuck.

    2.The fit between the chuck and the shaft is achieved by contacting the tapered hole at the shaft end. If the contact is not good, the tool is not easy to install correctly. So we need to ensure good contact between the cone surface and the cone hole. Before installing the tool, the cone surface of the shaft must be wiped clean with gasoline or WD40 cleaning agent.

   3. Next, we will put the clamp into the pressure cap, gently rotate the clamp spring, and wait for the eccentric part of the pressure cap to sink into the clamp groove. Push the clamp evenly in the direction of the arrow to fit it into the pressure cap.

   4. We install the chuck and pressure cap together on the spindle of the machine tool, clean the cylindrical handle of the tool, and then install it into the clamping hole. After confirming the alignment of the chuck and tool, screw the pressure cap in place by hand. Afterwards, we will use a wrench to evenly tighten the pressure cap until the tool is firmly clamped before use;

   5. When loosening the knife, use a wrench to twist the pressure cap in the opposite direction. If the clamp needs to be replaced, loosen the pressure cap to take out the clamp and the tool, remove the tool, push the clamp vigorously in the direction of the arrow to push it out, and then replace it with a clamp with another aperture as needed.
