Hello,
I do not know what happened to the thread I started on Saturday.....
So I have to start all over again.
This is a nearly new machine with only about 1000 hrs.
We are experiencing problems setting the chuck. When closing it we are getting alarms which prevent the machine from starting-
To work, I have had to modify the parameter to tell the machine there is a manual chuck and have to restore it to operate the chuck and setting to manual chuck to let the machine work.
From what I have looked up and advised in this forum, There are basically three settings.
(1) Setting the chuck opearting pressure which would be illustrated on a Panel meter on the machine. Here we have a problem as if we set the pressure greater than 20bar, the power enable on the conrol would trip.
(2) There are two valves which monitor the pressure and correct me if I am wrong, will bring up alarms. The valve on the left is to adjust for a chuck with external clamping.
This will bring Alarm 2051 if improperly set. (somebody confirms this?)
(3) Also there are two sensors which control the stroke of the chuck. These will
bring two alarms if improperly set- The two sensors are set properly and the yellow diode will go off when the chuck opens or closes.
We are getting an alarm 2050 MAIN CHUCK FRONT LIMITATION REACHED
We have paid around with the sensors and the valve settings and nothing seems to work.
We are suspecting that the fact that the Valve will not allow pressure to exceed 20Bar is the culprit.
Somebody who owns a CTX400Fcan say what the pressure meter mustread to be in the normal range.
I appreciate any help- Desperte situation!!!!
Thanks in advance.
