I purchased one of these for my "new" small shop. Basicly an early Fanuc Robo drill. Got it up and running today, seems like a decent machine. Now I know its not going to mill like my Matsuura's, & Mori's that I have become acustomed to.... But I'm wondering with light cuts how it would do on milling projects out of Alum, and steel?? Anyone out there have any exp. with this machine?? I gather it does'nt have much grunt at low rpm's, but with carbide and light depth's??? I'd love to here from anyone that does more than drilling and tapping on these machines and what they think? Also looking for an operations & programming manual for this machine & contol, Fanuc OM control, if anyone knows where I can buy or download one. Thanks & Happy New Year to all board members!
 
To the best of my recollection, they quit building the Tapemate well before the 0M control came out, so you most likely have a retro fit machine.
The chances are that you have the normal Fanuc options, such as the G54 series, Cutter Comp, Canned Cycles, etc.
I believe you have 5 HP, so cutting Aluminum should be no problem, Mild Steel should be a Max. drill size of about .75". I trained a few shops on these when they were new and I felt that they cut pretty good.
The programming for the OM is standard Fanuc, getting a manual should be no problem. Fanuc just split with GE, but I am Sure that GE-Fanuc has manuals.
All of the examples I have on my website shoul fit exactly, look on www.doccnc.com
Good luck, write more if you need help.

Heinz, My machine is a 1989 year model. I was told it was the transition period from the tapemate to the fanuc robodrill. Its all original with the OM control, and has the 7-1/2hp spindle motor. I remember the older pratt & whitney tape mates as to were the spindle and turret tool charger were all as one. This machine as I was told was Pratt's second and last design before selling the machine and patent to Fanuc. I'm currently seaching flea-bay for a OM manual, but would love to find the original Pratt operators manual. I will try and post a pic of the machine. Unfortunetly my new little shop only has a 82" garage door. So that, with cost economics played the biggest roles in my purchase. I was torn between a stout CNC knee mill, like a 40-taper Tree or Hurco, but HATED the idea of no tool changer and throwing coolant everywhere with no enclosure. I did find an old Matsuura MC-500 BT-35 machine in my price range, would of had the ballz I needed and I was actually torn between that and this machine I bought. I just hated the Yasnac 2000 with the single line display on it. Plus it was a 1979 model... I know with my door height problem, and a 5k budget, pickens were fairly slim. My work is condensed of 50% secondaries from my screw machines, light milling, drilling & tapping and 50% full machining. Full machining being smaller custom alumn. billet componets for one customer, and then some small A-2 dies for another. 1/2 thick x 4x6 in length. Now I know this is not a full blown VMC, but even with 1/2-3/4 carbide cutters I figure I could go around the part at .025 depth of cut if I had to. The dies come in smaller qtys, usually about 30 at a time. I know it will take alot longer than prevoiusly running them on my Matsuura MC-750 but hell, I work from behind my house now, I can work all day and night now! Yippie...
 
Hi Warner,

I have recently purchased a Fanuc Tape drill (1990) not the pratt and whitney version but looks very much the same. I have all the original manuals.If need any specific information, I may be able to help you.

Thanks,

Try Grego639's parameters, and if it doesn't get you what you need I'll send you mine. I 've got a '90 Tape drill with the 0m-c control with 4th axis.

Pratt & Whitney has nothing to do with these old machines now from what I can find out, the only support is Fanuc USA. If you need parts you can call them and tell them that Methods told you that they (Fanuc USA) is the support for your machine. For any problems relating to the parameters and such, you're pretty much on your own. There are a ton of places for help with the control though, and they are simple and easy to fix.
 
1990 tape drill mate for sale

I have a 1990 FANUC tape drill mate for sell. It has an OMC control with 10K spindle 10 tool changer.
Recent replacements/repairs include replacing bearings on Y axis, replacing cables on X motor (aged and cracked) replacing spindle load washers (Tensions draw bar to tool knob) and maintenance on spindle while out of machine. All work done by FANUC service techs.
I primarily run aluminum and plastics in the machine.
It probably needs a new spindle control cable to Z as we get an error (1000 & 1003) periodically when starting a program. Resetting usually gets it back right away. Overall a good machine but we are having to move.

We have to move our shop because of a highway project coming through so we'll take the opportunity to upgrade while moving. We need a bigger machine anyway so perfect opportunity. If anyone is interested drop me an email 1990 FANUC TAPE DRILL MATE Model T w/ FANUC OMC
 
I just got a fanuc tape drill mate 1987 (looks like a pratt and whitney without the enclosure). I have been told I have to drain all the fluids before I can load and remove it.

do these type T machines have oil in them? I would guess the spindle has some form of lubricant. anyone have details of how to drain it?
 
encoder parameters

Hi Warner,

I have recently purchased a Fanuc Tape drill (1990) not the pratt and whitney version but looks very much the same. I have all the original manuals.If need any specific information, I may be able to help you.

Thanks,
Garrett

hello

i have one one this machines. i have had to give it a lot of manteniance but it works well.

i have a question regarding to the encoder and the tool change. sometimes the tools are not left straight and they fall, i have to moove the encoder belt to correct it. but then the gears from the turret do not coincide with the tool holder and it makes a strong noise when changing tools so. my question is:

is there a parameter i could moove to make this corrections?

thanks!

I have an old 0m-a control.

write down all parameters before modifying them so you have a record.
I'm 90% certain the parameters are 9122 and 9140. both should be set identically.

I would do a M19 index and then disconnect the belt from the spindle encoder. rotate the spindle so the drive keys are in line with the tool change then hook the encoder belt back up. you will notice the spindle gear has one tooth in line with the drive key and one with a gap in line and teeth either side of the key. I think the tooth in line goes towards the tool change. then you can play with the parameters.

to help with the parameter adjustment you can set Diagnostics parameter #452 Turret adjust switch. Make all 1's.
make the parameter #702 Z axis soft limit + larger so it wont over travel.
now you can use the manual wheel to raise the spindle up passed the z over-travel and check the gear mesh.

remember to return the z limit parameter back to what you had, and turn off the turret adjust switch.
 
Shouldn't this thread be in the Antique Machinery Forum ? ;) It is funny how certain machines seem older than others. A 1990 Maho CNC would seem fairly modern for example but a 1990 Robodrill sounds like something that came over on the Mayflower.
 
The first place I worked as a machinist (1985? - it were a long time ago now) had what must have been one of the original Pratt & Whitney Drillmates. Maybe even earlier than that.

Paper tape, sliders for 'Z' depth controller, etc.

What a PITA to run & it needed constant maintenance.

The owner finally got fed-up with it and had us gut the cabinet and turn it into a shelf for small part storage.

Back in the mid 1980's I had some sort of Pratt & Whitney NC drilling machine that I guess was actually made in the late 1970's. Came from a tech school and looked like new... very modern looking with square head and such. And yet behind the head sheet metal was just a standard Clausing drill press head with a pneumatic power feed ! Like a Hollywood set...
 
First cnc shop I worked in had an "A" model with linear motors on the x & y axis. Also had several B and C models with Fanuc System 5000 controls. They had one F model from 1984 with a 3m control, 4 k of memory, T numbers were only for the setup person, machine only read the M6. They all had proprietary tool holders with carrier bearings that were held in the turret with big snap rings.

Thanks for the reply!

i also noticed that i could unscrew some bolts from the tool changer to move ir a little. now it works fine. except for the spindle belt that got broken as i put a lot of tension after receiving a belt splip alarm. then i realized that the encoder was faulty. i bought a new encoder from radwell but i cant get the belts. im working ith just one belt from 2.

does any body know where to get them? te part in the manual is A98L-0001-0307 # 3070730

cheers!
 
I have a Pratt & Whitney Tapemate Series C. SN D-770019.
We have had this machine for many years.
We run it continuously for a few months and then it sits idle for a few months. Until we get another jib for it.
After a couple of months of nonuse we tried to start it back up.
The battery light was on, so the operator shut it down and changed out the batteries.
I believe it lost all the parameters. I have a hand written sheet with what I think are the parameters.
I tried to enter them thru the keyboard. But I can't tell if they are in there.
The machine will only jog in very slow motion. When I try to read a paper tape the paper tape just runs round and round continuously.
Questions:
1) Is there a way to tell if the parameters are entered into the control?
2) Is there anybody out there that can work on these machines?
3) I can post the list of parameters that I have.
Thank you for any help.

Do you know how to load the parameters into a TapeMate C without the paper Tape?
I have a list of the parameters, but I don't know how to load them into the control.
Thanks
Mark
