Well I just did a drive board swap and it appears that the B Axis board is toast. The crazy thing is I just put an A axis board in a week ago. Could it be a by chance or could something be taking...

When I fired up my HL this afternoon I got a following error in the b axis it cleared after a couple of resets and power ups. Anyway I just ran a program that required the live center and it seems my...

Thanks everyone looks like its online

Well last weekend I swapped both encoders and boards with the X axis and it seems that I had a a axis board. So the 106 is clear but now I need to re align the turret since I messed with the...

the turret moves out then it alarms, I am not for sure if it is on locking or moving out properly but, after it alarms out it is able to wiggle back and forth on the rotational axis ever so slightly....

I really cant believe this now, I fixed the wire for the pressure sensor for the pump now the turret wont home and it gets a 106 alarm or "A Servo Error Too Large"

So when I go to through the...

Problem found, broken wire going to the pressure sensor

I have been fighting this machine for some time I have replaced the relay for the pump motor, there was a week leg running form the relay to to motor. I had a new shaft put in the pump due to the...

Very cool thank you

I want to change out the fluid in my 1997 HL-2 chuck but I do not see anywhere in the book for a grade/type. Any help would be appreciated.

I would program off the bottom of the part, just be careful of your clearance planes. I program off of the bottom all of the time especially when there is not a flat on the top say in a tooling...

I had a low spindle oil warning, it wasnt in the alarms, show up last night before I powered down. I am guessinf that is was refeing to the gear box and not the spindle. I looked it up in my book...

Very cool, I will try that when I get it back together. I took the pump back out and I am going to get it bench tested Monday. The last time I was working with it I did notice that the pressure...

I double and triple checked and it is phased correctly, I think I am going to have to pull the pump out and have it gone through. Any other ideas or knowledge about Parker pumps would be helpful.

So I just bought this machine and I was aware of this issue. But, at the previous shop the alarm would clear it self after a couple of resets. Anyway I need to fix it for real. So I pulled the...

I have been looking at them for a while then a HL-2 showed up locally. I am going to go look at it and if I can get it for the right price I will most likely be bringing it home.

Has anyone here had any experience with or anything good/bad to the HL-1 or HL-2?

The usb to serial solution is not allways reliable. I would use a "Express card" or I believe its called a "PCI Card" to usb or a docking station. My laptop has an express to serial card, note that...

Finnally back to 100%, I replaced that Fuji Module in my original drive and it seemed to orent better but it didnt fix the alarm on spindle decel. So I managed to find a replcement drive for a...

Well it appears that I have a "Fuji electric 6mbi50L-060" that is bad. Does anyone have a suggestion for a parts vendor?

Well on the right middle of the pannel I have a MagneTek GPD 503

At rest the diplay reads 0.00

from an rpm of 500 to 7500 it reads from 69.39 to 252

on error of an rpm of 500 to 2500 the...

Thanks for the reply everyone. I have had a chance to work on the machine much since my first post. But I have found a couple of other things to note

(1) The spindle kind of has issues...

So I just experienced this alarm for the first time. It happened at the end of the program shutting down from a 5000 rpm tool path. The alarm popped up and the spindle slowly reduced in speed until...

its probably your USB to serial cable. Most likely you will need to get an pci to serial, the USB ones don't always talk both ways properly.

I am trying to get a 93 Kira/Tree mill drill center with a Fanuc 0-M control setup and running. I powered the machine up for the first time yesterday and I must be missing something in the start up...

When I first that up my machine, it seems to be off in x compared to the last power on. Any ideas? Encoder, limit switch, Wiring?

Sorry if I am in left field but I am new to Haas, I come from a Fanuc/Okuma control background. Anyway on the older Mori Seiki's with Fanuc controls we simply added a hard drive and networked to it...

Today its been a 6" ER32 Collet Holder with nothing more that a #7 drill.



My height change is right in the money, i just checked it last week. I think maybe my old 1 piece fingers are a...

I have a 92 VF2 with an umbrella style changer and the changer will through my heavier tool holders from time to time. I glanced through the parameters but didnt see a see anything that looked like...

I am running a "phase perfect" digital converter on my VF2.
