How to handle water immersion issues in a flat-bed CNC lathe:
Steps to Take When a Flat-Bed CNC Lathe is Immersed in Water
Disconnect Power Supply: Immediately cut off the power supply to avoid electric shock and prevent further damage to the machine.
Remove All Water-Damaged Electrical Equipment: Carefully disassemble and remove all electrical components that have been submerged in water. This includes the CNC system, drives, motors, transformers, connection cables, electrical components (such as limit switches), main motor, encoders, and any other components that require electrical power.
Clean Contaminated Components: For components that have been soaked in dirty water, disassemble them and thoroughly rinse with clean water to remove any contaminants.
Drain Excess Water: Allow the components and parts to drain any excess water.
Dry Components in an Oven: Place the damp components and parts in a drying oven (preferably one with temperature control) to ensure they are thoroughly dried.
Reassemble Components: Once dried, reassemble the disassembled components back into the machine.
Test Each Component: After reassembly, power on each component individually to check for functionality and ensure they are working properly.
Professional Reinstallation: Have qualified personnel reinstall the tested components back into the CNC lathe.
