Hi, I am new to forum. I am having an issue with a 1991 vintage charmilles roboform 20. Started with z axis deviation and now has gone to E998 error with both y and z axis running away . Any thoughts?
 
I've seen machines run away in an axis a few times in my day and it was the encoder on the glass scale that was the issue. Or dirty glass.
 
Our default was to always, pull the boards, wait 5 minutes, reload the software then start over again. There is a video on youtube on how to do that.

I never thought of the encoder or scales. I will take a look at them tomorrow. Thanks
 
We used to do that,but I think its gone further south. I have pulled every board , cleaned them , sent some out,reloaded unloaded, but I appreciate the comment thank you
