USER GUIDE - WHISPERLINE VIBRATION - DAMPING TURNING BLADES FOR LATHE MACHINES
User Guide
• RPM is one of the most important factors that affect vibrations. To maintain a
stable and controlled machining process, use constant RPM (G97).
• Each blade is pre-calibrated in laboratory conditions for an overhang of 100mm (3.94").
• Although the pre-calibration is suitable for a wide range of overhangs, sometimes fine-tuning
calibration is necessary, depending on the overhang and clamping rigidity of the machine.
• Before making fine tuning calibration, try to optimize the cutting conditions.
Fine Tuning Calibration
• For shorter overhangs / more rigid clamping conditions, it is recommended to
increase the compression of the O-ring by rotating the calibration screw clockwise
(make sure the distance between the damping plates increases).
• For longer overhangs / less rigid clamping conditions, it is recommended to
decrease the compression of the O-ring by rotating the calibration screw counter
clockwise (make sure the distance between the damping plates decreases).
• The fine-tuning resolution should be about a half-turn for
each 30mm (1.18") difference in the overhang.
• To restore the initial setup, use the distance between the damping plates imprinted on the blade.
