HAd a tool claw break, everything put back together now. Trying to figure out how to step the machine thru the change sequence so I can align the arm for final tightening.

figured this out (actually one of my programmers did): Checking the API, use T1 and set line 240 to add 8000 to "t", then 219, get rid of spaces, then hard code "T" in front of "t1" on all the tool...
I finally had some time to dive into this. One end on the arm was slightly bent, so it was not putting the tools all the way into the pots. Easy fix. I also figured out how to get the slow change,...
Ver 33. I have a Mori mill that I use a lot of heavy tools in, and Mori made a way to choose the tool arm speed, allowing a slower change so as not to damage the arm or throw the tool.
Example:...
The pins seem to be working fine and they do lock. What I think I am having is two problems:
1: heavy tools change too fast. I did a change with 2 heavy tools at the same time and it actually...

New to me machine is on the floor and I really like it, cuts great. Until you call up a heavy tool, and it slings it. Every time. I have consulted the manual, and even though I have set keep relay...
Hello,
I need to add another 40" machine to my shop. I am looking at a 2001 SV-503B/40 with the MSG 501 control on it. I do a fair bit of 3d work, so I am curious about speed versus smoothness on...
I am in, and with my parts getting more complicated all the time, I am upgrading from 3 axis pro to premium.
Question for AL: will you be doing some vids showing at least a basic use of each of...
Sean,
Maybe I have a corrupted post file? Anyway, I grabbed a Fanuc OM post from your library and had it humming in about an hour. I do not have a fresh (non-edited) copy of the Fadal format 2...
Sean,
I am trying the one that came with my install Cd (29). This one would need some editing to work. This is a new-to-me control, and I was hoping to get off running parts without having to...
Anybody willing to share one that they like/use? Format 2
I just joined the Fadal Owners of America. Just wondering if anyone can recommend a good service guy/company in my area. Central KY.
Considering that a new version just came out, forums seem to be pretty quite about it. I am using 26 very successfully but I am interested in some of the new features, so just asking how its...
I can transfer programs fine in Tape mode, using my Calmotion USB box. I can DNC fine, the first time I run it. But, lets say I need to DNC a program 5 times. I should be able to cancel the last...
tool probe calibration vtc20
Between losing a board and a battery, I had to reinstall my parameters (M32B). I seem to have everything back to working, except the tool probe. I can go to MDI, and...

So I have been using 26 a long time, hundreds of files that I use over and over. I upgraded to 27, right before 28 came out. Anyway, no plans to go 28 any time soon. I am, however, starting to use 27...
thanks, but no help.
Vs. 27, anybody know what causes this error?
Thanks for the reply. I checked my build # and it is 1547. I have bought many Bobcad products over the years and never installed the latest without needing to get the latest build! I should have...
Hey Guys,
I picked up V27 a couple months ago, and am so busy using V26 every day that I am just now getting around to messing with 27. I am on standard support, so I think I should be able to log...
Machine stopped (no screen alarm, just red error lamp) while in rapid movement (backing up in Z for a tool change). I have tried powering down/up. Machine ready lamp lights up, all seems fine. But I...
update: problem solved! Culprit was the Z axis motor. I removed it and when you turn it it was "cogging" or catching really bad. A buddy told me it might be shorted?
I found a used replacement...
OK, after running a while now with the lube system fixed, I get same lines. There is oil everywhere! I also adjusted the X axis gibs, they were very loose. No change. I can run a 45 degree angle and...
Somehow, my memory got corrupted (according to Fanuc) and I had to do a memory clear to get rid of the 935 alarm. My sram would not punch out to a card, as it was corrupted, and my backup copy was on...
Is anybody else having problems opening .dwg or .dxf files from 2013 Solidworks in ver 26? I can select and open the file, and I do not get an error message, but then all I get is a blank screen with...
Thanks! that did it! I don't know why I was getting good code with other files, and not the one posted above, using the same post. Oh well, if someone smarter than me can figure it out, I'm all ears!
It is in my Fanuc post, I noticed. I did not take it out ( I promise!)
I cannot get the error to repeat with another file, and playing with the drill feature is not changing anything. The other tools in this file post correctly. I dearly hope that at least one of you...
