Denford Software & Machines

Hi,

I'm an Engineering student from Argentina and we have a CNC lathe New Turn 270. We have two problems whith the lathe.

First, the Machine Control display Feedrate "0%" (see the picture), turning it off and on again sometimes solves the problem.

The other problem occurred when we tried to adjust the height of the toolpost. We Used the CNC machine control software to request a tool change but the Control Machine shown a "Machine Error"!

Cheers.

Hi,

I would check the regional settings on the computer and make sure the separator is a decimal point "." and not a comma ","

This would explain the NAN on the position display.

The feed override issue may just be a problem with the legs of the potentiometer. With the power off on the machine check the legs of the potentiometer and bend them slightly.

Does the machine load the flash as you connect?

Do the axes home correctly?

Does the turret home to position 1 when you home up?
