The power keeps fluctuating even with the axis unhooked my distrubution baord must be bad, I appreciate the advice on trouble shooting this problem thanks guys.

I have adjusted the pot to 155v It keeps fluctuating up and down I will disconnect the axis and see if it still fluctuates.

Its a 95 vf-3 my dc buss voltage seems to be low in the machine diagnostics screen at about 145 it is bleeding off for some reason all the way down to 92 volts I verified that my board that supports...

Parameter 257 is your spindle oretation offset. After you put it back togother you should be able to oreintate the spindle and adjust the parameter as needed to line up with the tool changer. I also...

I learn something new everyday. I just replaced the spindle on this machine a few days ago and all of the sudden it couldn't orientate. Whenever I give it an m19 the spindle will try to orientate but...

Anybody ever have a 5136 FSSB:number of amps is small

The Haas service tech said to use VAC 2. I also did a spindle lubricater test the 50 taper spindle should get 1.7 to 2.1 cc every 4 hours. The new spindle is in and we are ready to go 7000 dollars...

Whatever was printed on the side of the waylube tank has been worn off.

Way lube 68 is cheap way lube the company buys to save money its not a mobile product. I have only been at this company for about 2 months and I am trying to start a preventive maintenance program...

I have a another question I need to know the proper spindle lubricant for this machine I do not have a manual and the operaters have been putting way lube 68 in the automatic oiler.

Thanks I will give it a try when I get my vf-6 fixed.

Yes its a 50 taper.

I have a question can you run the 7500 rpm spindle at max speed for a 3 hour cycle time and not have to worry about burning it up.

Your right we are going to put a 7500 rpm spindle back in it today. Total cost with a 50% core charge is around 6000 grand. Haas won't warranty it unless they put it in they are charging 95 an hour...

I think you are right trillionair. I am fed up with this to the point that I am going to have a haas service tech come and try to fix the problem and hold him to it. If they can't fix the problem the...

Is it possible to upgrade my spindle cartridge to 10,000 rpm also.

Anybody ever have to replace the spindlemotor & gearbox because of a smoked spindle. Last sunday the machine operater was running the spindle at its max speed 7500 rpm for extended periods of time....

The brushes not making good contact was the cause of the shuttle in fault error. Its always fun chaseing down gremlins like these. I appreciate the help fellas.

I pulled the Brushes out and to be ohnest I don't know if they are worn out or not.It looked like their was still plenty of brush left so I clean them up and blew compressed air in the motor and it...

Yea I can get to the brushes I will go do that right now.Then I will let you know something.

I have been trying different ways to trouble shoot this and I also found that when it alarms out I can tap the motor with a mallet and then I can clear the alarm and it tool changes fine. I think I...

Its a 96 and I tested the dc motor for voltage while the operater did a tool change I didn't get any voltage before it alarmed out. I also cleaned the switches with contact cleaner. When it alarms...

I keep get a shuttle in fault when I do a tool change. The shuttle does't even get a chance to move towards the spindle before it throws the alarm. I have replaced the relays on the baord and watched...

Thanks for the info I was trying to figure out exactly what the deal was on the controls. I am familiar with fanuc but I don't know that much about yasnac or mitsubishi. Can you get a fanuc control...

I'm just curious what happened to the collet. Have you already orderd one. I think Maruka is the only place to get parts for these machines.

Just wanted to let everyone know what kind of Mori Sieki lathes we have at our shop.We have 4 NL3000,2 SL303,2 SL253 and 2 SL403. They all seem to be great machines. I recently had to change out the...

I have been in the plumbing trade as well as HVAC. You can get an airacetylene bottle witch is an oxygen and acetylene mix in one small bottle at you local gas supply. Then all you have to have is a...

I read earlier in the forum that unhooking the air and hooking it back up might pop it into gear.

I do know that the spindle oil cooler could stand to be cleaned. The spindle coolant probably needs to be changed. I will try this when we get some down time. I have been working at this facillity...

Your suggestion makes sense. I didn't use naptha I used a red brillo and some acetone. It still randomly drops the bigger tools after you have been cutting with them.I have worked on a lot of machine...
