Good Morning,
I have a forest-line gantry mill that i currently have control issues with.
This machine is a series 11 fanuc control.
We had a power failure in our plant 6 months ago and ever since then we have been having issues with the machine.
We had the main spindle motor drive go bad (old analog siemens unit) we replaced it with a bardax digital dc drive.
Everything on the machine works fine with the new drive except the m19 indexing operation.
Ive had fanuc in here, i've had fives in here (they own forest-line now) and no one seems to know how this machine indexes.
M19 does not call up any parameters etc.
This machine is a 1992 vintage and its almost impossible to go through the ladder.
i am wits end with trying to figure it out.
Currently we are running it in "manual mode" only so much lines of G-code at a time.
any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
