You can download most Yaskawa manuals free of charge on their website. Have you tried that?

I’ve seen this happen when there’s a problem with the program that was uploaded. Be sure there’s a % at the end of the program you’re uploading maybe try a smaller simpler program to see if the same...

If the plate is .074mm then the others on this thread are correct. If the plate is .074” then you’ll have almost 4 full threads. If you need help calculating speeds and feeds I’d be glad to help. ...

R registers are typically what’s referred to as MISC addresses in the ladder, are basically used to store signals until needed. You can view the R addresses in STATUS just like any other PMC address...

If you swapped motors and the problem stayed with X axis then the problem has to be in the cables or the servo amp. Can you rotate both ball screws freely by hand? Does your EDM use linear scales...

This wasn’t just Nakamura. Some lathes were built X positive, some were built X negative. Don’t know why.

In Fanuc controls the skip command is usually a G31, it’s non-modal. When one or more axes are moving in G31 move the axes will stop immediately when a skip signal is input to the control from the...

Unfortunately the 6T is not quite as easy. This should help though.

1. Zero return X axis.
2. Change parameter 12 bit 0 (1 to 0/or 0 to 1).
3. Exchange the parameters between 143 and 147 but...

This alarm usually means that either the carousel didn't move towards or away from the spindle when commanded or the Hall effect switch confirming that motion didn't do its job. The large bellville...

Matsuuras are very well built machines. The company is still in business, their offices are in St. Paul MN. If I were looking to buy used Matsuuras I'd call them to see what the spare parts...

The M codes are not finishing. Be sure PRM 3001 bit 7 = 0. If this is correct you may have a PMC parameter such as a data bit, timer or keep relay that's not set correctly. See if you can find the...

Try Motion Industries

TMRB's cannot be adjusted as they are hard coded into the ladder, not looking at a value in the timer table.

Check the diagnostics to see if the sub arm in switch is working. If you give me the control type I can probably get you some documentation.

Have you tried replacing the compact flash socket on the control? It's part of the ribbon cable that comes from the motherboard, is very inexpensive.

The 16MB is the "B" or second generation of the 16 control. There are also 16MA's which are the first generation. You need the operators manual for the RoboDrill. When Fanuc built the RoboDrill...

6931 is Y axis, 6932 is Z axis.

If the control has the Macro A or Macro B option, yes.

Is this because the controls don't have a full keyboard? If so, you can write the macros on your PC then transfer the program via RS-232 or Ethernet.

Try entering 99 on IPL screen so you can enter number of axes then hit enter for all of the options.

Bob at Simpler Systems is the man when it comes to all thing Yaskawa (717) 917-5790

Sounds like the air valve solenoids are not wired right. If I remember correctly you can go int a diagnostic mode to be able to see if the outputs for the hi/low air valves are working correctly. I...

Fadal rotary tables cannot go to negative degree positions as evidenced by the position display. Everything must be programmed in positive degree positions. If you enter a negative number your...

I think you can get these from Methods if you sign a non-disclosure agreement.

There should be no high amp draw when powering up a servo drive because of its variable frequency design. Try disconnecting the servo motor(s) power wires from the servo amp to see if the problem...

Yaskawa has been kind enough to make all of their manuals available on line for free. Go to Yaskawa.com, click on downloads and search by product. Hope this helps.

What control does this Mastuura have?
Have you checked all basic stuff first? Incoming 3 phase, 100 VAC from multi-tap transformer, 24VDC from both machine side and control side power supplies?

If you're programming in feed per revolution, check the spindle encoder belt. If the encoder's not turning then your RPM's are 0 and your feed per rev will be 0 too.

Change setting 6219 to 4, then change parameter 6014 bit 7, then change setting 6219 back to 0.
