  1. Tool data table - Machine has lost track of what is where

    Hi folks
    Wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of where our Toyoda FH630S keeps the data for tool locations? It's a Fanuc 30i control. We had an issue last night where ATC bombed out,...
  2. Re: Does anyone need service manuals for popular Doosan Machines?

    Hi there
    I don't suppose you'd have a maintenance manual, with alarms etc, for a Puma TT 1800, please? We have two of these and it seems the maintenance manuals only have gone walk about.....
    Thanks

    Update, work around found.

    Found a work around.
    It only seems to be struggling with the 360° circle line using the I value, so I split that into 2 x 180° arcs and went with an R value instead, that works no problem.
