    Exclamation Robofil 440cc

    Good Afternoon!

    I am having an issue with my Robofil 440cc machine. We have a fixture plate that has a hole in it that we use to set XY to 0. During this process the Upper and Lower head just randomly traveled all the way to the right of the machine (+ direction) and hit a limit. Now that the upper and lower head have hit the limit, every time that I try to jog the heads back to the center of the machine it throws up an -U over limit error. I can manually move the heads in a +U direction to get the alarm to clear but as soon as I try to jog them it continues to throw up the U over travel alarm. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks!
    Wes

    Which controller do you have, Charmilles or Fanuc?

    check the encoders. It seems that they lost their connection to screws.

    I have a Charmilles. I was able to figure something out. I ended up powering the machine down while the E stop was engaged. Manually going to the back of the machine and turning the gears until the heads were in the middle. Then, I powered the machine back on and ran an HER. Then just set everything back up.
