We've been having this issue in the shop off and on for awhile now, the lathe wont go past 60% rapid, and if you set the rapid to anything >60% the machine will error out, with an error something like "Z: Excessive Server Lag" We've sent the motor to get looked at in the past but it was returned and we were told nothing was wrong with it, as far as I'm aware nothing else has been attempted, is there another area in the machine we should check out that could affect this? We have cooling in the electronics, so overheating should not be the issue.

EDIT: The machine is a 2008 DMG NEF600 Gildemeister
 
Hi
Does this machine have linear rails, solid slides or V-bed. Please load a picture of the Z_Axis machine bed, some of these machines have a bed similar to a manual machine and when the V-bed gets worn then this error is common.
