NC -368 : X axis - Serial Data Error (INT)

     The probable causes for this alarm to occur are

               1. Noise
               2. Failure of pulse coder
               3. Broken cable for feedback signal


     Guidance to check the cause:

 1. First check is the interpolation counter (DGN No. 356) is more than 5
 2. If it is more than 5, the alarm is effect of noise. ( In this case noise means a disturbance occurred in the process of signal transfer from pulse coder to amplifier). Probable cause is shielding check the shielding of the cable.
 3. If the DGN No. 356 is not more than 5, then check for the communication alarm counter (FC3D) and (FC5D) more than 3 or not.
 4. If it is more than 3 means the communication cable it self has a problem. check the communication cable with the following drawing. (The cable is A66l-0001-0286 or A660-2005-T505)
                    
              The one end of the cable is PCR-E20FS which is connected to the amplifier unit at port name JF1 ECR and the other is JAE (MODEL : A06B-6114-K200/s) connected to the pulse coder at motor end.

SPINDLE HEADSTOCK ASSEMBLY


                     The Spindle Head Stock is solid supporting assembly which holds the spindle cartridge and spindle motor. The spindle motor connected to cartridge spindle thru High Torque Drive Timing belt,main motor adjust place uses to tightening and loosening the belt. The boosting cylinder positioned on top of the spindle cartridge, these both boosting cylinder and spindle cartridge are not directly coupled. When the boosting cylinder operates the shaft of the cylinder enlarges to push the cartridge mechanism to open the 'collet' this opening cause to unclamp the tool and closing cause to clamp.

                     This full assembly (Spindle Head stock poisoned vertically on guide rails supported with Z - axis ball screws and spindle motor, X and Y axis takes the spindle head stock to tool working position simultaneously the spindle cartridge to move up and down on the work place with help of Z - axis. Three num of Dog switches are located on the Z - axis. These are the limits for upper limit , lower limit and emergency stop. A micro switch is connected to Z - axis to move with the axis movement.

CARTRIDGE TYPE SPINDLE



                                                  The spindle is nothing but a drilling machines which holds a tool and performs cutting and drilling operation on work piece power by a high speed spindle motor (say 10000 rpm -This speed is fully controllable). The cartridge spindle is a heavy duty spindle allows heavy cutting and there is a over sized disc springs called "Collet" which gives the tight holding to the tool. This mechanism developed by LEADWELL using high precision P4 grade bearings reduces tool movement, improves tool life , reduces chattering and creates a better finish

WORKING /OPERATION:

                                    The spindle mechanism consists collet which operates by a boosting cylinder (a pneumatic cylinder).When the boosting cylinder is activated by air its plunger enlargement causes spindle collet to open and it release the tool (At this same operation air release inside the collet to clean). At the top of the boosting cylinder there is a adjusting bolt to adjust the opening of the collet. During the auto operation at the time of tool changing all the axis moves to tool change position, Automatic tool changer (ATC) door open and ATC motor energizes until complete one cycle of operation starting from home position .ATC consists double handed arm one arm holds unclamped tool from spindle and the other takes tool from magazine for the next operation and inserts in spindle.

TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY Z - AXIS


                                       The z - axis gives the top and bottom moving support to the spindle head stock.The overall length of the Z - axis ball screw is 1520 mm. and the travelling distance 610 mm. The guides used for all the axis transmission assemblies are high speed linear motion guides by which the power consumption is less and precision movement is achieves.

                                        Also the ball screws are accurately aligned parallel to the guide ways and anchored at both ends. These ball screws are pre-tensioned this improve the machine stiffness,this also achieves accuracy. All X,Y and Z high speed ball screws are lubricates with automatic lubrication system  to improve the life.

TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY - Y AXIS


                                           The X - axis transmission assembly consists of a ball screw and a servo motor. The Y - Axis moves moves vertically (say 90 °) to the X - axis.The Y - axis is positioned between X - axis and the travelling column and is operated by a directly coupled servo motor whose movement is commanded by a servo amplifier. The travel distance of Y -axis is 610 mm, and the overall length of the ball screw is 1210 mm

TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY X - AXIS


                          The X - axis transmission assembly consists of a ball screw and a servo motor. The Ball Screw is a mechanical linear actuator which transmits rotary motion to linear motion. The X axis bears the total weight of the travelling column, including Y axis linear motion guide assembly and Spindle head stock. A servo motor is directly coupled to the ball screw which controlled by a servo amplifier, by which the movement of the X axis (say horizontal movement of the travelling column) is possible through Spindle motor.The total assembly rests on two guide rails with linear guide roller bearings by which free movement possibles. The travel distance of X -axis is 760 mm and the overall length of the ball screw is 1520 mm
