The phenomenon of a lathe being stuck can be resolved through a combination of measures such as ‌ adjusting cutting parameters, inspecting the transmission system, optimizing the clutch state, improving lubrication conditions, and ensuring the stable clamping of the workpiece ‌. The following starts from the key reasons and explains the specific solutions step by step:

Adjust the cutting parameters

Excessive cutting volume is a common cause of stalling and should be prioritized for inspection and optimization.


1.  Reduce the feed rate or cutting depth ‌ : lower the cutting resistance and prevent the machine tool from being overloaded. ‌ ‌ ‌

2. Reasonably select the rotational speed ‌ : Avoid a sudden increase in cutting force due to an excessively low rotational speed. ‌ ‌


Inspect and maintain the transmission system

Failure of transmission components will directly lead to the interruption of power transmission.


1. Tension or replace the drive belt ‌ : When the belt is too loose and slips, adjust the tension. If it is severely worn, replace it with a new one. ‌ ‌

2.Check the gear meshing condition ‌ : If the gears in the spindle box are broken or stuck, they need to be repaired or replaced to ensure good meshing. ‌ ‌

3.Lubricate key parts ‌ : Clean the oil circuits and replenish lubricating oil to reduce the frictional resistance of transmission components. ‌ ‌


Optimize the clutch and braking system

Failure of the friction clutch or braking device can cause the vehicle to stall.


1.Adjust the clearance of the friction clutch ‌ : When the clearance is too large, press the spring pin or turn the round nut to restore the effective torque. ‌ ‌

2.Replace worn friction plates ‌ : Friction plates with smooth surfaces should be roughened or replaced to increase friction. ‌ ‌

3.Check the safety clutch ‌ : ensure it can disengage reliably when overloaded to prevent overload protection from failing. ‌ ‌
