Have a look at the 100mm stoke cylinders.

Yes they can be swapped over if that is what you are asking.

I don't think it is correct.

I always thought the stoke lengths are 100mm for up/down & 150mm for in/out.

I don't think we have any information on that either.

We used to return them to Baldor for repair.

You can run EasyUpgrader which is on the VR CNC Install disc to set what machine type is connected.

It has been designed to allow the user to lower the tool or lift it depending on jobs. The only thing you will need to reset is the workpiece offset.

You do not need to replace it. Just remove it as it is not required .

It is only set to run at 1000mm per min in VR Milling so its about correct unless you have changed something.

You need to put tool number up the spindle & align the carousel to the same position & then input a M27 command which will reset to position 1.

I will see what I can find on Tuesday.

That is great news. Well done.

It moves towards the datum switch & slows down when it detects it. It then carries on for about 25mm at a slow speed until it comes off the switch then it looks for the next marker pulse from the motor & stops. From what you report it does not slow down. Does it definitely activate the diagnostic du...

If you look in the VRMilling directory on the computer you can try Mintfinder to see if that will connect.

You should see the switch in the diagnostics as below.

The X axis datum switch is Diagnostic 16 bit 5
The Z axis datum switch is Diagnostic 17 bit 5

Power up the control while holding in "P" & "CAN" on the keypad.

What machine have you selected in VR Milling?

Have you checked the Lock is correctly set?

If you look just behind the top of the guard at the Bernstein switch there is a circular disc with a arrow on that should point to the Lock (right as you look at it).

If you go to Setup then to Machine Parameters & enter the password denny you can change it in the Tool Changer box.

Hi David

What software are you using to run the Novaturn?

There is a Tab nut that tightens on to the bearings but because its on a slant it should drop down. It may be that the jib strip needs tightening to allow for wear.

Have you tried running with the feed rate turned down to 80%
