A while back, there was a site that got listed as a place for Fadal parts. It was an on line web site that offered Fadal parts, and pdf downloads that were drawings and assembly breakdowns. I did a search, but searching "fadal" was too vague, and I didn't know how to narrow down the search. Anyone remember the name of that site?
As long as I'm posting that, I'll tell you what's going on. My Fadal spindle (standard 7500 rpm) is fluctuating between 60% - 100% of the programmed speed. It only does this in the morning when you first turn on the machine. After about 5 minutes, it seems to clear up, and runs fine for the rest of the day.
I'm thinking the spindle end coder is going bad. What say you?
