And the issue has been found. The crash actually did damage something - the cam roller bearing that actuates the internal atc arm that moves the sleeve up and down.

Unfortunately I didn't find...

What you're looking at is the arm at the toolpot in the carousel not the spindle, sorry. I didn't make that clear. The soft Z did move, but since the toolpot is off but that much I don't want to...

Hi all,

I had a small crash earlier today. Nothing seems too wrong except the arm is now too low for the pot in the carousel. I've included a picture to show you what I mean. Is there a way to...

Thank you much. I will definitely follow your advice.

Yes, several things happened at once - my other machine blew up a motor drive and I had to move my shop.

Hey folks,

I think the compressor died on my MAC oil cooler. At the moment I have little time and less money. It's pretty cold out...

Has anyone run one of these without the oil cooler and if...

My bad, I didn't reset the operator message with an M02. Seems to work now.

Ok, I managed to get the ATC arm to move and removed the offending tool. Unfortunately, now the ATC arm doesn't move during a toolchange. Everything operates just fine until it's time for it to...

Ok, I managed to get it to make toolchanges. I still can't get the tool operations panel to actually set tool numbers, so I was going through and trying to retrieve the tools in the magazine...and...

Hi all,

I've been trying to get my Okuma Howa Millac 3VA working after sitting idle for some time. Everything seemed to be going well until I tried to do tool changes.

The first problem: I...

Thanks! I'll try these out today.

Hi All,

I have a knee mill with a Centroid M400 control. I'm having an odd issue...I can do a rev/in adjustment and get the measurement perfect for any given distance, but the measurements will...

For some reason I never got the PM Sending you one.

Hey guys.

I don't have a surface grinder and a customer needs some hardened spacers ground down - they're 29mm diameter rounds varying from 1/4 to 1/8 of an in. Does anyone know anyone who...

If you'd like you can share the project with me on Fusion360 for the quote. My email is [email protected], that should be how to find me.

Thanks,

Uh, basically what I meant by this is that if anyone has a G/M code list and alarm list for EZ Path IIs I'd love to have a copy.

Hi all,
I'm developing a post processor for my EZPath II now that I've switched to Autodesk Fusion. The conversational control is okay, but sometimes I need a little more control on how the lathe...

Hey Bert,

The manual actually has a programming tutorial in it. PM your addy and I'll send it to you.

Do you have a bigger picture? I'm having a hard time seeing the details.

I'm interested in bidding, but yeah, like the others I'll need a .pdf or step file or similar. [email protected]

I'm interested in bidding on this, but for a real quote I'm going to need some tolerances. I can give you a rough estimate if you like.

[email protected] if you'd just like to drop me the...

Sure do, but it looks like someone else got to you first, haha.

Hey Nutsack,

Tried to tender a quote, your PMs are full. My email's at [email protected]. I'd love to have the opportunity to work on this.

The VFD won't start up until the controller activates a contactor on the inside of the cabinet. Mine's marked MOL1...wires 55 and 56 go into it. I'm pretty sure you can jumper it to test if the VFD...

G30 Z0 is present in the program.

The problem is that the Z-Axis zero return is only triggered in zero return mode. Manually jogging it or moving it via program to z0 doesn't engage the light or...

Sorry, Fanuc 0M-B.

I don't have an error when I home, only when I attempt an M06, which brings back the 2025 Z-Axis is not in Zero Return Position error.

My machine returns to z-axis zero just fine during the initial zero return process, but when I home during auto or MDI even though the ATC switch reads green it never triggers the z return position. ...
