    Iemca channels sticking

    I have an Iemca Boss 432. I am having an issue that sometimes when it changes bars the channels will get stuck open or closed. When this happens the motor to open the channels tries to actuate the channels, but it can't get started spinning and trips the breaker in the control panel. If I catch...

    Fadal servo alarm

    My Fadal is throwing a servo alarm. 1997 with 32MP control. I don't think it is the amp causing the issue though. I have 2 ice cube relays on the 1100 board that keep clicking. I think they are causing the amp to alarm. Can someone tell what these do and what might be the cause of them making...

    Mori SL25Y live tool drive

    I have a Mori SL 25Y, while drilling a cross hole with a live tool the coolant ran dry. This stopped the drill and alarmed the machine. I got everything reset and homed out.

    New to me Fadal

    Just got a 1997 3016HT. Got it set and powered, working on cleaning and checking it out. When I hand wheel the Y axis .01 step, it does not move on the first step. I pulled the way cover, and with power on I can move the ball screw and the table moves. I am thinking it is the motor to ball screw...

    I know the tag says 230V 3 phase, and it is usually +/-10%. 208V 3 phase puts me in this range, but am I going to have any issues running on 208V?

    SQT18 M T32-3 good or not

    I am looking at a 1994 SQT18M with a T32-3 control. I have always programmed in EIA in the past. I really am looking for any input of the control more than anything. Are they good? Bad?
