One of our lathes has developed a problem that's driving me crazy.
It's roughing down large billets and working hard, 100% spindle load etc..
Shortly after entering the cut it stops dead, control power off, with 'Not Ready' flashing at the bottom of the screen. There are no alarms whatsoever, just the not ready. No alarms on the drives either, just the same "--" not ready.
I can press control power on, zero return, and restart like nothing had happened.
I am getting really tired of breaking tips when it stops dead in the cut, and of having to restart the program constantly.
Anybody have an idea what's wrong with it?
Thanks in advance, Gregor
