Hi
I have been watching the developements here for some time with interest, and as a result and having lower output requirements bought 4 drives off of Smarbaga.

They eventually arrived all...

Have any of you guy's had the MB1 or KMB1 stuck on the language screen.

I can get it to boot this far and then it freezes.

None of the buttons seem to work.

Dave

Do any of you guy's have any circuit diagrams or pin config for the Randtronics drives in an MB1?

Thinking of retro-fitting and just wondering if it's feasable to keep the old drives?

Dave

Got exactly the same problem with my MB1.

I am just about to get the hammer out!!

I think for mine, a retro is on the cards.

Dave

Got an MB1 that's got problems.

It has been sat for a while, haven't had the time to work on it.

Put a new encoder on the other day and cleaned out the carbon dust from the motors, a previous...

Hi Guys,

Found a Hurco MB1 that is going cheap but has a problem. I don,t know if any of you have any ideas.

Turn the machine on and it will jog on all axis but the moment you stop it comes up...

MBG,
How about rotational molding, toolings cheap can be fabricated, size not a problem just depends if the molding needs internal accuracy.

Bob,

Have emailed the schematics to your company, hope they help.

Any luck with Metal Meccanica 14SRE molding machine schematics.

Dave

I will dig them out and scan them. Have you got problems with one then? The boards are quite solid on them but the drive transistors fail regular if they are over pulsed. Ended up driving the boards...

Hi Bob,

I have a complete manual on a Series 1. Was control circuitry or main power schematic you wanted. Which No. Boss control, not sure if they are different.

Perhaps you can help me, have...
