Tool Holder sticks in Spindle
W are using a Haas Super VF-4 cnc mill.. We have been having a problem with the tapered tool holder sticking in the spindle.. Has anyone out there had this problem? Each time we go thru the steps to remove it and use a small pinch bar to lever it out.. Can someone give me info on how to correct this problem?
Thanks in advance...
John..

That suggestion of the dumby tool change is a Great Idea... I am going to give that a shot.
I was also wondering about the idea of wiping some light oil ( I'm glad you gave the green light on this as that's what I was planning to try on my haas )

I wouldn't lay a layer of oil , just use wd40 then wipe clean . If memory serves me correct I bumped the air pressure up to 100 on the bank of haas mills I controlled , and that resolved the problem for the most part . I'm pretty sure they were set to 90 originally , either way I bumped them all up 10psi
