Honest Question: Do modern CNC machines still need battery storage for settings?
Let me chime in on that last statement. Yes, controls are utter garbage at keeping tabs on batteries. I got older OTc brained lathe. When it arrived, everything was fine, no warnings no errors no alarms, but 2 days later full stack of servo and encoder errors. It was enough low voltage to...- usolutions

Fanuc O-Tc screen buttons
Did not look at it, since it was not mentioned in the manual. MTB manual is from older style of machine, and is not corelating with what I have, and general Fanuc manual also is hush about it. Will be looking at it later this week. Tomorrow is field admin day. overall bundled documentation is a...- usolutions

Fanuc O-Tc screen buttons
Following up on my Otc control journey. Manual refer to under-screen function buttons, however, I don have them, i have only physical buttons, that are well worn, but they seem not to refer to anything. Is there a parameter to hide/show onscreen buttons?- usolutions

Fanuc 0-Tc RS232 location
I am not sure, if it originally was there. It has location for the DB25 port in operator panel, but no port and it looks virgin, so Im positive that it was not just smashed into console. Iļl check 901, It has punchtape with parameters in cabinet, so I guess it should have at least one port...- usolutions

Does any1 know/have schematics where to connect RS232 in-cabinet to control board...- usolutions

The Ultimate Coolant Ring
From my point of view, from both external data and personal experience: 1) Volume is king, more is better 2) More nozzles will limit situations when something is obstructing the jet 3) Everything is good in moderation. 16 nozzles is stupid. 4) Having dedicated air blast nozzles on additional...- usolutions
