Hey everyone,
I have an Acer EMC with a Fagor control here and the tool changer has been giving me some real issues the past few months. At first it was an intermittent problem were the ATC arm was not getting any further than the initial turn and latch to the spindle tool and pod tool. I would reset everything manual and then it would work.
Long story short the problem keeps coming back and doesn't seem to be an easy reset this time.
The ATC arm will complete the tool change but not return to its home position and let the tool pot go back up into the carousel. Ive gotten a few different errors throughout testing it the most common being Pocket up/Down Fail (arm not at home).
I tried to replace some sensors and make sure they are adjusted correctly; and that didn't do the trick.
Has anyone seen anything like this? Would appreciate any view point to get me looking outside the box of tricks I have already tried.
Thanks!!
