Circular interpolation, tons of flat spots

$
0
0
Hello all, my first post here. I'm extremely new to CNC repair & diagnostics and I'm hoping someone can help me. At our plant we have a mill that is cutting many flat spots as it does a circular interpolation. The flat sport are in mostly random spots (ie. not in the quadrants) however they seem to be repeatable around the circle on each test cut. I've attached pictures that I hope will help explain what the problem is. I tried my best to get clear pictures but the lighting was difficult off the shiny surface. I have checked the machine for levelness and the rails for straightness and they are perfect. I'm wondering if this may be a taper problem in the spindle or maybe one of the DC motors is messing up. I have tuned the servos perfect and have messed around with reducing the drive's gain with no avail. Initially I thought that maybe the drive's gain was set too high and the drive's were just sitting like a racehorse at the gate but that didn't turn out to be. Help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Parameter Setting for Setting a Live-Tool Maximum Speed

Hey all-

I have a Fanuc 18i-tb control on a Hyundai-Kia SKT210sy CNC Turning Center. The data printed on the live-tool blocks say they will
run at 5000 rpm but I can't seem to get them to turn any faster then 2500 rpm. Parameter setting? Not that I want to run much faster
then 2500 rpm on these blocks but I do want to know how to get up there for short periods when necessary.

Any help from frey is greatly appreciated!

Ecoca EL-4610E: Mitsubishi -Z70- Absolute Position Error Alarm number 0001.

Hello!

I have run into a spot of trouble whit my Ecoca lathe, I get this alarm: "-Z70- Absolute Position Error Alarm number 0001." and when I refer to my machine manual it tells me to consult the "Mitsubishi MELDAS 520L" manual for trouble shooting.

Here comes my real problem though, this manual and most others that my Operations manual tells me would be a good idea to have handy.

So do any of you fine people have any tips on where I can find these manuals?


  • Ecoca Manual, Electrical Manual number: 38C01E01
  • Ecoca Manual, Machine Manual number: 38701E01 (Part one, two, three and four.)



  • Mitsubishi MELDAS 520AL.

Programming Manual: (BNP - B2119A - ENG)

  • Mitsubishi MELDAS 520AL.

Instruction Manual: (BNP - B2112* - ENG)


I have tried contacting both Ecoca and Mitsubishi but whit no luck so farr.

Best regards Daniel.

Duraturn 2550 foot switch failure after machine move

$

We have 2 Duraturn 2550 machines that were moved from one plant to another. After getting them back up, on one, the X axis would not move and the chuck would not function with the foot switch. The other machine, the chuck would not function with the foot switch. I will note that the chucks open and close with M10/M11 codes in MDI. The a axis turned out to be the tailstock handle not be locked into position and we are down to just the foot switch issue. Both machines were under power and running before the move.
Any ideas that would cause these foot switches to not operate that we could look for? My guess is it will be something simple such as what happened with the X axis, but not sure.
These are my first Mori Seiki machines in this plant and not familiar with common issues.

thanks for any help

Intermittent Vibration at Spindle Start

$

Hi All.. Working with a KOMO VR510 Router that intermittently starts to vibrate like crazy in CW spindle direction after a tool change or when the spindle starts. We are sometimes able to correct the problem simply by stopping the spindle rotation on the controller and restarting the spindle rotation. I had a spindle repair company in and the rep saw the machine in both 'good' state and 'vibrating' state. The rep was puzzled and didn't have an answer other than that they would need to take the spindle in for a rebuild. I don't have any reason to believe that he is wrong, however, I don't have a good reason to believe that he is correct either... Some strange circumstances that go along with this are that the machine runs flawlessly in CCW direction without exception. If anyone can shed some light on this, it would be greatly appreciated. I have contacted Komo but have yet to hear.
Thanks in advance.
Bill

Good evening all, I work in the maintenance department of a large manufacturing company. We have an Amada 1010 BLS with a Fanuc series 18-P control. Tonight the control gave an error 1300 watchdog timer (pf). I have look on line and did not find anything on the Fanuc 18-p. Hopefully someone has seen this before and could point me right direction to start trouble shooting. Thank for your help, Scott
