    Question Kao Ming Tool Changer w/Fanuc OMC Control

    We have a Kao Ming KMC4000SD Bridge Mill. The tool changer does not operate under automatic mode, however, all functions operate manually. Single blocking the tool change macro reveals that it fails just as the tool twin arm starts to move to the down position.

    We have examined the macro and it is correct. The M06 LED remains on and the T LED remains off. We have verified the actuation of all hydraulics and sensors. The M06 command will cycle with a T0 selected as a tool but it will not run as T1 or if any other number of tool is selected. Does anyone know about how tool count parameters might affect this machine?

    I would check the prox switch for the tool arm up and down, sounds like one is not going off
