I have an old 55 ton Niagara brake press, it has no back gauge we only form parts in it in fixtures, it has been a work horse for many years. Over the past couple years it has been coming down...

Found it R55 and R59, change to all 0's

We are getting the 311 error for the tailstock, I can wiggle the wires around and the light goes on and off. We never use the tailstock, is there any way to change a parameter so it doesn't know it...

Ok, Thanks, I will try this today.

I don't have any manuals and how do I determine what turret it has. BTW it only seems to do it when it is cold, weather wise I have no idea why. We had many issues with it doing this during the...

Keep getting this error. Tool Holder will not clamp when it switches tools. It's random doesn't do it every time and no specific to any certain tool.

I have a mid 80's BMC 50 That had an issue with the Program entry board shorting out. I believe whatever caused it was in the front panel (pedestal) board wiring to it. The ways on the machine are...

The errors I get are motion errors, I would assume because it won't move. There are no errors on the servo drive, and on the CPU rack all are green. When I power it up and go to manual I hit power...

I have an old BMC 50 that won't do anything won't calibrate or jog. When I try it gives motion errors. I checked voltages to the e-stops and one has 25v the other has nothing. Both are ran to the...

I have a Messer MG plasma table with Navigator control. I am currently using a Hypertherm HD3070 and a HT2000. My THC has been acting up for a long time now. We use two torches and one of the THC's...

OK, I switched out the start button that did nothing. I did that because when I hit start I don't hear the servos come on and the screen flickers when I hit the power button. Still not working

Also there is supposed to be 4 green lights on the Servo logic board I am only seeing 3, the PBU light is not lit. The relay board has no lights on.

I have an old Hurco KM-3, yesterday it was running fine then just stopped with a motion error in the middle of a run. Now when I restart it and try and calibrate it I get a servo error on Z. When I...

When I hit power the gantry moves left and jerks back hard and skews out and gives me plc comm time out error. I was getting a skew error also but that has stopped.

I am running a Messer Navigator...

We just purchased a used QT-15 with Mazatrol T2 control. about a week after we got it the lube pump quit working, we have been manually lubing it while we wait for the new one. Well today about a...

I have a mid 80's BMC 30 that is now servo faulting on X, Y, and Z. Does this make sense? Could it be a cable somewhere? I have had it servo fault on a certain axis before but never all 3.

Thanks for the help Bloke. I will order a new one.

I have checked for shorts, bare wires, etc... I can't find anything.

Yes just a small 3amp glass fuse.

I had this problem on my BMC 50 and it ended up being the limit switch that told the machine the chuck was closed.

Thanks for the reply. I checked the voltage, I am getting 135.4v in. While checking I noticed the small fuse was blown I replaced it and it blew immediately as I turned on the power. Of course with...

I have a 1988 Hurco BMC 30. Came in this morning and there was no power on the control. I opened the side with the spindle drive and it's on with no alarms, the amp has one green light lit up, so it...

Thanks for the reply, any ideas on how to reconfigure it?

CAn anyone tell me if these two drives can be swapped: A06B-6055-H106 and AO6B-6055-H108? I have a BMC 30 and a BMC 50 both have seperate issues. Neither of them are running at the moment, I need at...

OK, today I finally got some time to mess with it a bit. I traced the cables from the drive to the motor and found no cracks or anything. I wiggled them around and just repositioned them a bit, and...

Yes I can orient/lock the spindle. I c an actually turn it on in manual (most of the time), just when I go to auto it errors out.

Thank you for the reply,

John

OK, this morning I start it up and after calibration I can manually turn the spindle off and on without issue, which usually isn't the case, it usually errors out then also, but as soon as I run a...

I have a mid 80's Hurco BMC-30, with a Fanuc Drive. I have an error: Spindle Drive Fault Check Drive System. When this happens there is an AL 02 code on the drive. I have a real nice Hurco repairman...
