Hello,
I am having a hard time diagnosing an intermitent problem with a CNC machine.
The machine is a Pro4896 4x8 ' from CNCRouterParts from 2014 but not very intensively used.
The problem is that I start the machine in the mornings, home it correctly, start the spindle for cooling, I have it cooling well for more than 30 minutes, and then starts the chaos of every day, and when by midday I have the time to return to the machine to do something, I start my toolpath, and Mach3 is believing the machine is moving, but the machine is not moving.
When I open the cabinet, I see that the PMDx-114 has no green led on it. I turn off the electronics, and power on the cabinet again, and I can see the PMDX-134 led is on shyly, but inmediately start to dims out, and the machine can't move.
The next morning is everything again the same.
I suspect it is a problem with the power supply, that is a AC/DC CONVERTER 48V 998W built by MEAN WELL. But as it is an intermitent issue, and I am not very good at electrics/electronics, I am wondering if the power supply has any feature that if it detecs a ground leak might disable the output.
Many thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards from Spain,
Alberto
