Hi
I'm trying to shift my work away from the clamps.
By changing my G98 command from
"G98X0.Y0.I90.J0.P2K0"
to
"G98X0.Y50.I90.J0.P2K0"

according to the textbook, this is supposed to move the...

What does this mean? Has anyone encountered this problem? I have it on my Amada Pega 357 and it will not perform tool change functions. I've checked all sensors. What is going on?

Thanks Blackened.
I cleared the servo plugs with compressed air and a lot of white oxide came out, but no carbon. unfortunately, the machine still behaved badly.
I removed the four large pneumatic...

Ok, where to begin...
We have an Amada Pega 357 with a 58 station turret with dual auto indexers.
the startup procedure, involving homing X, Y, T and C axes works fine most of the time. But when I...

Thanks Memoryman, They used to close at every startup, then just stopped, but the circuit seems to be fine. I'll check again. going to start probing signals with the scope tomorrow, see if I can...

Hi BinaryAndy

Thanks for your response, the PEGA is a sheet metal punch press. I've checked for wonky microswitches and found nothing so far. what makes this interlock behaviour so strange is it...

I'm in Fish Hoek, Capetown, South Africa.

Hi Any and all,
This machine has me at my wits end, it's just problem after problem after problem, X100!!
Like when you cut off a hydras head and two more grow back!
First question: How do I...

Thanks, I'm going to try that now.

Does anyone know how to get punch back to top dead centre on the AMADA PEGA357 or similar?
I thought it would do it automatically, Am I missing something, Because as far as I can see, the thing just...

Thanks CJFisher! It turns out it was all due to a loose cable with a broken connector that people had been standing on! Haha, I always say it's the stupid little things that get you! One of our VCUs...

Pretty please, with magic beans on, can you send it to me? I thought it was classified information!

The "tool change switch" red LED stays on on the FANUC 6m control panel. It started doing this a week ago, before that it would switch on or off when you turned the tool change key just as it was...

This machine is lucky it is made of steel and weighs 12 tonnes...
Does any one else find the Amada operator and maintenance manuals completely and utterly useless?

My problem: PRESS MOTOR STOP...

Well, I fixed it. After having the Amada technician and a private technician here for at least 20 hours each, I decided to inspect the motors myself. Broken solder joints on both Tachogens.

These are my current parameters

Damn, wish I could use Skype, sadly our internet is too slow and erratic. (SA still uses copper!)

I'm in South Africa

The technician did check them, I'm not sure how thoroughly, I will personally check them though, any advice on what to look for when checking them?

Hi all,
I have an Amada Pega357 and have spent nearly a year trying to get it to work. We have spent thousands on technicians, none of whom seem to have a clue what is wrong with this 12 tonne...

Ok, so what I can say with confidence has been done is the following:
Swapped drive leads X and Y around to check if wrong connection
Reloaded all parameters
Checked phase direction on all 3-ph...
