Actually, I did find the number, it was hiding on the other side of the unit against the graphics card.

A16B-1212-0100-01
P03P00295

I wasn't sure which PSU you were referring to, so posted pictures and info on both.

The PS on the floor of the control unit is:
HK-12-24
Input : 85-132VAC 205W
Output : 24V 6.5A

We have a W1 and I did have a memory crash not unsimilar to this. In our case the machine booted up but just crashed to memory dump and stayed there, didn't power down. Our problem had to do with the...

You won't get huge speeds on that thickness of material. .026 thou per min isn't fast but not slow either, on an older machine anyway. I have a W1 (1990) and I don't get much faster speeds on very...

@CNC Business - Thank you. I didn't realise they were intermittent when failing, thought they just died. I'll check the PS out on Monday when I'm back at work. Currently we don't have a PS to swap...

Hi.
We've been having a problem with our Fanuc WireEDM W1. When I switch it on I get a fragmented screen and the keys surrounding the screen are unresponsive. The screen is an LCD replacement from...

Hi Lomach.
Thanks for your reply. One of our guys said it might be the servo, but we needed to separate the servo from the screw so we did that, and when we moved the x axis the servo made the same...

Hi.
We run a Sykes Fanuc W1 Wire Eroder, quite an old machine now but still very much used. Last night I ran a job overnight but in the morning when I looked at it the machine was showing a 416 X...

Someone posted the above answer so thought I'd pass on my results and findings.


Right, I just tried your version and it displayed something pretty weird on the graph. So I fiddled with it a...

Hi all.
Looking for some help machining an internal tapered gear using a Fanuc W1 EDM.
I have managed to create a program using AutoCAD just tracking the points of the gear, using G90 (absolute)...

Right, my next question might have how long did it take you to model that lol. Quite a complex model. I can imagine the more expensive CAM software would help but for hobbyists that's not really...

Awesome, looks like a giant medallion. What did you use to create the model and prgram?

Looking good.

That looks awesome, really nice work there. It'll be a standout piece. Not surprised it's taking a while as CAM generated programs always end up pretty bloated in my experience. It would be pretty...

Ah right, so that's how it works, I was looking for ages for the free version. Doh! LOL.

That's odd because when I go to their website I don't see where they say it's free for hobbyists.

All the best with this, hope you get your target.

The Hurco's we use (like all CNC machines) have good covers, two or three together, each one folding under the other, and using a special seal that squeezes out the cooland and swarf. After a while...

Ah right, I'm guessing that they are more heavily protected on the larger CNC machines, plus there are numerous guards etc. From what I've been reading Ballscrews tend to be more accurate, certainly...

I agree about the stand, unless it's connected it wouldn't be much use.
Leadscrews eh? I did wonder about swarf getting in the Ballscrews people keep posting videos of, perhaps dust from wood has...

Almost everything. From one off's to production runs in the thousands to robots feeding machines that need no significant human assistance. And in every material you can imagine.

Hi all.
I'm from the UK, have been working as a production engineer for 35 odd years in small machine shops. Have worked on CNC turning machines, CNC mills, Fanuc Wire, all types of grinding, gear...

Just seen this thread. Very nice looking lathe/mill. Certainly will be useful for certain applications/companies, not really for production companies in my opinion. Probably toolroom or prototyping,...

Hi 1Jumper10, just thought I would comment on your incredible build and journey, it looks fantastic already and am sure i will be even better when it's finally completed. I have spent a good part of...

Hi Turupio
I know this is an old thread but if you are still around I need help locating a Fanuc Wire Edm (W1 Series) Post for Camworks.
Can you help?
