Spindle Rotates on Contact, or Spindle Isn't Rigidly Clamped

Reduce Torque on Spindle

Reason: Excessive torque on spindle.

  • Adjust tool paths to reduce forces applied to the braked spindle.
    The spindle brake is only intended for maintaining orientation during tool changes. Excessive torque imparted on the spindle by punch, shaping, slotting, or similar tooling can cause the spindle to rotate.
