Our VF-0 has been very slow on the unclamp/reclamp process during tool changes for a while. Now it sometimes won't even finish clamping. The big piston comes up about 3/4 of the way and just stops. If I disconnect the small line (I think it is an oil mist line to lube the piston) on the right side the piston will come all the way up.
The system consists of a solenoid valve, shuttle valve and some mystery valve I don't understand that hooks to the above mentioned oil mist line. We changed the shuttle valve, solenoid valve and also dismantled the piston for cleaning. I took apart the mystery valve and didn't see any gross problem but I wasn't sure what to look for.
Any thoughts?
