Tramming a Thermwood Model 67

Recommended Posts

Has anyone ever had any major problems tramming the head of this machine.

 

We have had this machine for almost a year, and have had success tramming the head a couple of times. This time though, no matter what we do, we cannot the machine to tram within spec. The flatness front-back and left-right of axis 4 is good. The home position of axis 4 and axis 5 is good. For some reason we keep getting stuck on the parallel rotation test.

 

I was just wondering if anyone could give us some tips and or tricks on how to proceed with the tramming process.

 

Also, has anyone come up with a different tramming procedure for this machine? Everytime we loosen the axis 5 mounting bolts to make an adjustment, we need to go back and re-check all the other measurments to make sure they are still within spec. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
