Another Hurdle in getting the slant turn 40 up and running!
Everything on the Machine seems to be working now and we have worked through a number of issues.
The Current issue we now face is when we go to fire up the spindle we automatically through the breaker and get the dreaded spindle controller Malfunction code.
I checked through the transformer and verified we are pinned for our power level per the documents and have checked a bunch of things. I know the machine ran flawlessly before I got it as I know the person and it worked great. I'm am kinda lost as to where to troubleshoot this issue and could use some guidance. I was told that due to the machine sitting idle for a few months it could have carbon build up on the brushes however I would think if that were the case there would be some kinda of effort by the machine to start the spindle but there is nothing.
My worry on one side is the machine doesn't like the phase convertor but I know lots of guys run them with no issues. Everything else is working minus the spindle now.
Thank you in advance for your help.
