My Y axis jumped??????
I have a VMC6030
I had a note from night shift this morning that they heard a loud bang in the machine and when the program finish the part patern had shifted .200 or one revoltion of the ball screw.
when I turned the machine on this mornig to look at it the marks were off by the .200 so I ajusted and refired the machine.
I then pick up my offset and it was another .029 off WTF.(nuts)(Adjusted it)
So now I have run the program 5 times with the offset +3.000 in the Z to make sure we have no more problems becuase the matiral is not cheap I really hate scrap.
Why would the machine move in the middle of the program. I this a sign the Y axis motor is going out, I'm not to sure any ideas would be helpful
Thank you,
Kyle
