    Wrong tool position

    Please I need help!!!


    My machine
    Nakamura TW10 18i-T
    Fanuc.

    Problem:
    I lost my home position, still dont know how, from a shut down of two days this issue appear. Anyway I reset it by using Parameter 1815.
    It looks ok now, I may need to twick it a bit...My problem now is the TURRET POSITION. Turret is indexing to the wrong number position.
    Sample:
    Program reads T0101 machine will index to position number 2 (T0202). How do i reset this???
    Please someone out there help!!!!!!

    Watch it more carefully. At least the offset number can't change.

    ignore post#2, its total bullsh!t

    assuming your turret is servo driven your parameter 1815 will have lines for X, Z and 3 (or some other axis letter/number for the turret servo)
    all you have to do is put the turret to the physical position where tool #1 should be and toggle 1815.4 of the TURRET SERVO line to 0, then 1.
    power off/on and your #1 turret position should be good.

    Fordav11-
    Thank you for your replay...

    I was sure this is the parameter I need to play with, but I dont know witch letter, I have X Y Z A. I used
    X 1815 .4 to reset my X home position, I think A is for the turret, Im just not sure. I dont want to make things worse.
    But....after your coment Im gone go for it. "A" has to be for the turret.
    Thank you my friend
    Regards
    George

    if you go in parameters at number 3115 on the line of A you will have 0 and you can change it to 1 and the A axis will be displayed on screen along with X ,Z .
    In this moment if you make tool change you will see if A will change from 30 degrees to 30 degrees and you are 100% sure the A axis is for servo turret
    after that you put on tool 1 on turret and reset the 1815.4
    when finish put back the 3115 parameters to 0 and the A axis will disappear from screen.

    yes, normally the turret servo is hidden, but the parameter will be 1 to hide. so you need to change it to 0
    either way the turret servo is usually not named with a letter because its not seen and it is normally a number. if you have other axes it could be 5 (XYZA, so 1,2,3,4 is used and 5 is next)
