hello everyone, i just signed up here first post. Ok to the point i was recruited well say, to fix a milling machine the robotool cvm-1 as I'm sure you all know already the company is out of business and the machine is almost as old as i am and i don't know anything about it or what its supposed to be doing which makes it awfully hard to fix. The machine was already torn apart by the time i got to it which makes it even more fun
anyway apparently it was taking longer and longer to start up and now it doesn't start at all. it gets to the insert master disk part and then doesn't do anything. as i said i never saw it running so i don't know if the disk is the problem or the drive, apparently this machine does have a history of drive problems but the drive was tested in a computer and appears to work. There are three boards, the servo amps i believe which all have R1 burned out (might only be 2 of 3) do you think that could have had anything to do with the problem, does the computer check these before it will start? could the computer possibly be damaged? the fuses on the boards are ok and everything else appears to be fine was there something that likely would have blown out the same part on all the boards? any help you guys could give me would be greatly appreciated , any history common problems or things to look for maybe even schematics what ever would be great. thanks again in advance (sorry for the long post)
edit: p.s. anybody know a good place to get parts, particularly those resistors?
