Unusual noises indicate defects in machine parts, such as motors, bearings, gearboxes, guideways, tool spindles, ball screws and other components. The machine operators are obliged to permanently monitor the quiet running of the machine, switch off the machine if unusual noises occur and must not continue to operate, which detects damage early and avoids consequential damage.

Procedure

The Machine is running in Automatic mode.

Listen to the noise from the machine.

If you hear unusual noise:

  • Locate the source of the noise.
  • Then switch off machine and secure to prevent being switched on again.
  • Repair damage yourself or have it repaired by customer service.
