Spindle will not re-start after toolchange
Posted: Sun 08 Jul , 2018 15:56 pm
Hi All,
I have owned a Mirac for many years and it has been working fine until now.
My machine is the LCB3 type with the single inverter for spindle and toolchanger. After a tool change the spindle will not re-start, then after what seems like 2 minutes it starts running, the problem seems random as it can run for a few parts or it can do it on the next tool, my concern is, depending on how long the delay is before the spindle re-starts the tool sets off into the stationary work after a short delay as if its in a wait loop that has timed out. Any ideas what to look for would be a big help.
Thanks
Graham
