CNC Spindle Inspection
Noise, warmup, taper condition, runout, load and service records.
Follow manufacturer documentation and qualified professional advice for electrical, rigging, safety, fire, ventilation and structural work.
Define the decision
Noise, warmup, taper condition, runout, load and service records. Write down the outcome, evidence required, responsible person and acceptance criteria before inspecting or changing anything.
Collect evidence
Use photographs, serial numbers, manuals, measurements, alarm history, service records, supplier quotations and written assumptions. Distinguish facts from estimates.
Calculate downstream cost
Include downtime, labor, tooling, software, training, consumables, freight, installation, service travel and risk. The lowest purchase price is not always the lowest-cost path.
Keep a recoverable record
Store the final decision, supporting evidence, backups and action list where another person can find and understand them later.
Compare complete descriptions, photographs, included tooling, freight terms, control condition, and seller history. A listing title is not an inspection report.
