    Spindle not Running

    I am having trouble to get the spindle to run on a Colchester 600 with Fanuc 3T. I have entered the G codes to run the spindle on MDI but with no luck. Will not run on auto either, seems to not complete reading the line. X & Y axis are operating corectlly as is tool index. Drive motor has been checked electrically & is O.K.

    Any ideas????

    im not sure on that machine but normally you use a M3 clockwise M4 c.clockwise M5 to stop, they need to be accompanied by an S like S1000 but you may need to find out if you need to call up a gear
    individual who perceives a solution and is willing to take command. Very often, that individual is crazy.
