Mazak QT-8 SP homing problem with servo motor

$
0
0
Hello , Could anybody help me with this issue , the homing procedure of the sub spindle is not always working and i think it is a servo motor problem , when the machine is cold it works sometimes , the thing is i do not really need the subspindle and was thinking to dismantle the whole sub spindle but i do not know how to enter the software to make it work without the subspindle , you need to home the subspindle before the machine will operate so if anybody has some experience with this matter i would appreciate any suggestions !

Mazak H400 Belleville Spring Change

$
0
0
Well I guess this can be counted as the next project.

Around a year ago we found a second hand Mazak H400 with twin pallet. It was being sold by an ex Mazak service engineer who was working on their own now. Sold as being in great condition with everything being serviced, well what a whole lot of rubbish that was, all seems a bit deja vu. any way machine cam in found problems and started to repair in between jobs. The first job we did was replace all the thrust bearings on the ball screws as they were rusted solid and it was the outer case that was turning! The whole tool changer has been off and rebuilt again with bushes and bearings being replaced.

The machine has been great and has dramatically reduced production times and number of operations on a range of components. Now comes the bit I have been putting off, since we have had the machine I have run it with the short DIN Pull Studs rather than the slightly longer version for BT Mas as the tool wouldn't pull up into the taper correctly but they will with the shorter version.I know really bad idea. With the other issues we have found I am inclined to think that all the belleville washers are worn out if not broken.

has anyone done a spring change on this machine and know the procedure if not are there any thoughts on what stays together and what pulls out of the spindle. My understanding is that it all comes out backwards.

Problem with cycles on driven tools on the T-1 control

$

Hi. I am asking for help. It is about the MAZAK Slant Turn 30 Mill Center lathe with Mazatrol T-1 control.


I do not know how to enter the G-code responsible for calling the cycle for tool-driven machining. I can not enter a cycle number G (for example, G84) because when I place the cursor in the place where I have to enter the numeric keypad does not work. I do everything according to the instructions and I can not write a program for machining a groove or drilling outside the axis.

Maybe someone has any idea what I can do wrong, or what is the mistake?

Any idea...?

The pictures show how the program should look like. However, since I removed it, I can not create a new one by the error described above.

H630 spindle related problem

$
0
0
I am here to grasp at straws. About 4 months ago my Mazak H630 started having a new problem, randomly the spindle will just stop running. When this happens the drive knows that it stopped and the control also shows no rpm, the problem is the machine keeps running. Has anyone had this or a similar problem? To date I have done everything Mitsubishi asked me to try, I have replaced all of the boards on the spindle drive and the power supply, reinitialized the control and checked every wire/cable and re-seated every cable connection. Mitsubishi does not think it is a problem with the drive and they don't recommend sending it in for repair because they can not do any load testing and the problem is random. Mazak has been here twice and have no further solutions. The machine is m32 control H-630, and the machine does not get any alarms other then sometimes an overload when the spindle is stopped and the axis is trying to move inside a part. At this point any advice will be helpful, Thanks.

Value of Mazak schematics?

$
0
0
I'm hoping to get an idea of what reverse engineered schematics might be worth out there. I've done several for my own use in troubleshooting Mazak drives/controls, mainly the SF-PW/SE-PW power supplies for FR-SF/FR-SE drives, and some other stuff. I'm currently working on the TR-23D control board for the TRA series of drives.
I'm using the GEDA schematic editor( gEDA Project's Homepage ) and would likely send paper prints of my work. If the digital files ever get out in the wild it would be game over I suspect. I'm no great expert at this yet, but I do use these myself as a bench tech for Scott Pruett of MSB Machine Tool Repair here in Swannanoa NC.

Give me some advice/feedback fellers, is this something any of you might be interested in?

Hi guys, we have a mazak 200y mk1 640mt fusion control.
We recently had the spindle refurbed and now the mill axis roation is out.
I've read we need to change the sp7 parameter using the privilege setting 1131 but I can find how or where to put the code.
I have tried pressing parameters and the the 7th menu button and typing it there but it doesn't seem to work.
Does anyone know how to access these settings?
TIA

Hello, i have a problem with second hand machine. When I press on revoler forward or backward button it advances 2 tools places insted of 1. If I hold the button and revolver makes a full turn or 2 turns then the revolver advances as it should, with one press on the button it advances to the next tool. If I run the program the revolver advances too much and goes into alarm. Could it be dirty revolver encoder, and can someone explain how its easyest to get to it to clean it? Thank you.

Mazak Mazatrol CAM T2 Lathe

Dear Professionals in MAZAK,


We have a Mazak Quick Turn Lathe, with Mazatrol CAM T2 Controller.

The issue we need help in that machine is how to use EIA/ISO with the machine Work Piece Coordinates -WPC- (like G54)?

The machine offset work well when we use the Mazatrol file type, efficiently, but if we use ISO files, the table is not effective, Is there any parameter to make that offset work for ISO? or is there another way for ISO files to run with work offset??

Please help us.

Mazak 640 T Nexus- sub spindle C axis clamp M code

M319 followed by M360 will orient and clamp the sub spindle on our older Mazaks. With this control, and using the same M codes, my sub spindle will orient but not clamp. I cannot find an M code specifically for clamping the C axis on my sub spindle. What am I missing?

massive backlash problems!?!?

hey guys, got some mad backlash going on in the Z axis on my ST30ATC m/c - i'm talking nearly 1mm of lost motion.

Here's a video of me hand wheeling 1mm... (after going 1mm+ setting indicator then 1mm-)

Shared album - Travis Hammond - Google Photos

Clearly not ideal! where should I start looking? could this be as simple as a thrust washer issue (ball screw turning but not transferring the force)

I'm also able to rotate the ball screw a very small amount by hand, is this also no bueno?

Mazak iso program transfer - all load not working

$
0
0
Hi all,

I have 2 Mazak VTC-20 CNC mills in the shop. 1 has the Mazatrol Fusion 640M control (Windows based)
and the other is a Mazatrol M-Plus control.

Both machines have ISO compatibility and this is what we program with. My question is in regards to program transfer. The Fusion will accept multiple programs during download ( ALL LOAD ) without any problem. The M-Plus forces me to separate anything that has sub-programs into individual programs and send them one at a time otherwise I get an alarm. (I will have to check the alarm# again).

Does anyone know if there is a user parameter or other setting that controls this? I've looked at the setting to try and compare but they are difficult to compare head to head as they are not entered in the same manner.

Thanks in advance for any advice/help.

Mazak QTN100 consistently losing chuck pressure while engaged. Starts at 350 and will slide under 150 within 20 minutes. When its not engaged it pops back to the set 350. Could this be an actuator issue? Any thoughts?
