Help, Orac Lathe spindle not working
Posted: Wed 28 Mar , 2007 11:59 am
Hi,
I have just aquired a 1987 Orac Lathe ser no AC06037C.
The spindle was working fine in manual mode until recently, but will now not start when you press the spindle start button.
All you get is a beeping noise from the machine, the x and z axis work fine .
I am trying to program the machine to see if it works under program and am getting their slowly.
I wondered if it was anything to do with the gaurd interlock, but the plunger seems to be working ok.
I would appreciate any help as its not much use without the spindle rotating.
Many Thanks
Neale
