Okuma MCV-A intermittent all axes oscillation
If you had the knowledge, you'd know that an encoder in a servo system and a tachometer in a servo system are two different devices. When you're trying to give someone ideas about a possible solution to a problem, you need to use the correct word for what you mean. Encoder loss is going to... -

Okuma MCV-A intermittent all axes oscillation
His response was that he was using "encoders" as a generic term for any feedback device. I'm guessing he either is young and inexperienced or ESL. If you want to help someone, you need to know how to express yourself and use the correct term for what you mean. Clearly he did not. He also... -

Okuma MCV-A intermittent all axes oscillation
Thanks for your input. Regarding 1, I've been repairing CNC machines since 1978 and have had my own business since 1981 and have to say that I have never seen an encoder with brushes. Resolvers? Yes, but never an encoder. I'm not sure what the purpose would be. The light source shines... -

Okuma MCV-A intermittent all axes oscillation
We've got a 1985 Okuma MCV-A with OSP5000M control. For some time we've had an intermittent problem with the axes. It appears as though X, Y and Z are all oscillating! Enough that the milling finish will be unacceptable. OK, so what do they have in common that could cause this? CNC power...
