Fanuc 15-t spindle RPM maxes out at 45 RPM No alarms
I checked all the parameters on the drive, and entered them into the new board. They were the same as notes I had. Machine was running good, had gotten mice in it, but I repaired all the wiring. Most of damage was in the crt console. I've gotten everything else working and the spindle issue...- TM1

Fanuc 15-t spindle RPM maxes out at 45 RPM No alarms
This model has a stepped switch instead of a actual pot. I looked up the inputs in the ladder and could see all bits changing as I rotated the switch. Plus it does it on m codes also.- TM1

Fanuc 15-t spindle RPM maxes out at 45 RPM No alarms
I didn't think that style showed the rpm, so I never checked. I'll look at that next. On the controller it shows 43 rpm.- TM1

Fanuc 15-t spindle RPM maxes out at 45 RPM No alarms
I swapped the whole board out for another one that supposedly came from a running CNC (eBay). I can check the MOSFETs tomorrow but it seems unlikely both boards would have the same failure.- TM1

Fanuc 15-t spindle RPM maxes out at 45 RPM No alarms

Just bought a small South Bend. Missing spud gear
So I just bought a 13" South Bend to add small part capacity to my shop, sight unseen from a government auction. They wouldn't let me preview it, something about a closed warehouse. But looks to be in good condition other than needs a new lead-screw for the cross slide (No problem there as...- TM1

Precision Levels
I have always used starrett master precision 199 levels or the swiss electronic ones which I do not like as much as the spirit levels. However whenever I level and align a machine I like to use 2 to 3 levels so I can see running twist and how they relate to each other I only have one master... -
Editing the ladder in M plus and T plus Control

Voltage surges Here where I'm from we don't see that many lighting strikes but I have seem some strange occurrences when the power fails and there is a surge right after. One comes to mind where the whole plant lost power for 20 sec. and the lit up for less than half a sec. Next 6 hours no... -
Mazak Vs. Fanuc Controls!
Mazatrol VS Fanuc I will state from a machine tool repair principal that i like that most Mazaks are Mitsubishi based, (they are friendly and willing to help you and most manuals are available on the mits website.)

Dry milling 3/8 slots in aluminum
Alum. Get a pail of wd40 and fill a refillable can with it and purchase a high helix aluminum carbide end mill. Makes a huge difference, spray the wd40 on while machining. Just remember alum. likes wd40. If you dont want to buy a new end mill at least use the carbide one, high rpm's though...- TM1

I sharpen to a needle point with a long angle and usually flat the last to .020" dia. of the electrode, and only use 1/8" tungsten on anything over 3/16". I know miller only...- TM1
