Our company has a Toyoda FH630R horizontal mill with a Fanuc 30i control. We have 5 other similar model mills with Fanuc 16, 18, or 31 controls. This one mill will lose what tools it has in the spindle and next quite often and the other mills haven't had this issue.
Whenever a tool life expires and the tool comes to the operator door from being in background edit, and the machine is resumed after the tool replacement, the machine will alarm out with tool time over. What is happening is the spindle tool and next tool will flash 44 and 16 or 0s during all tool changes but whenever the tool is brought up in background edit it will stay with these tools and alarm out in confusion. Our maintenance crew hasn't been able to pinpoint the cause. The only lead we've had is Data Tables D0202 and D0206 show the value of the tool numbers it flashes to on tool changes. These have been changed and did not solve the problem.
Has anyone had this problem or know of some solution or where to start looking next to resolve this issue?
