    Kitamura 3xi w/ Fanuc 16i Alarm problem

    My Kitamura will throw up a spindle oil alarm if it sets for a couple of minutes between cycles. Currently we leave it in manual w/ the spindle turning to prevent the alarm from recurring. Is there a parameter to increase the time before this alarm will occur? :idea:

    Wouldn't it be better to fix the problem instead of working around it?

    Fixing this is ALOT easier and le$$ costly than replacing the spindle bearings...

    Check the pump/fittings/lines for cracks/leaks. The alarm is trying to save you from costly repairs.
