Hi!
I just got two old Shizuoka 3B vertical machines with 6M Fanuc controls.
I ran a couple of Okumas years ago and am trying to remember all the details I used to know by heart. I got these for hobby/side work.
One machine will not run in automatic. It will respond to commands in MDI, but I cannot get any response from even a simple program stored in memory. The tool changer is not working due to a bad micro switch. Not sure if that could have anything to do with it. I did the return to zero mentioned in the book. Any ideas on what I could be missing?
