I've been around machines all my life. 60 years old.... I'm the owner, single employee, operator, janitor, book keeper of my own little business.
I have a new Hass TM-3P machine, and I have a problem! Warranty's out, and I want to disable the door switches. I don't give a darn about the safety reasons, but I want the door switches disabled.
Today, I want to put threading oil on a little problem job and I cant get to it while running the program with the doors closed. The coolant just doesn't cut it in this instance.
I can remove the keys off the doors and put them in the door safety switches like so many have done, but the problem with doing that the machine won't let me remove the tool holders manually for setup. It thinks the doors are closed and I shouldn't have access to the tool release button....
There has to be a work-around, some way some how....
Maybe on the I/O board one way or another.
Does anybody have an idea on how to work around the safety switches? If there's a will there's a way!
Thanks for the help.
