Hi, I have limited capability on the Z axis. The axis will home to the mechanical switch limit and then drop to a point which I asssume to be the fiorst zero point below the mechanical switch limit. Then it gives the error. There is power to the mo

I got a 3000 that is acting crazy. After a print, the board is unclamped and the Z-axis lowers. It continues to lower until it trips the limit switch. It is suppposed to move in the Y-axis to line up with the tracks while lowering in the Z-axis.

Try raising the table in Calibrate mode. Sensor or Tactile connector could be contacting the underside of the rails and overloading the axis. Check for 24V on the Z-axis brake. Check the fuse(F5) and voltage to the driver. Check DIP switch settin

Thank you Michal, The MPM error messages are ambiguous to say the least and one axis not zeroing was a possible cause. But I put here what I learned again and again with this machine: when something doesn't work start by checking the fuses, all of

THe question is - does that happen on all of your programs or just in one program? If it is just this particular board, it might be some softwaRE limit issue. If it happens on more programs it is a hardware issue and it could be one of the following:

It sounds to me like it may be your squeegee Z motion controller card. The SQUEEGEE Z motion controller card is interchangeable with some of the other motion cards in the back of the machine.(NOT ALL OF THEM) Make sure you look at the power ratings a

Hi ELC, I'm curious about your comment of calibrating the Z axis. Our UP2000 has been moved around a few times and we've never done this nor noticed a need to. Could you please share some more information and even perhaps the calibration procedure?

Hi, hopefully I am too late, it is fixed and you are up and running. Have you tried MPM support on the phone? We have 2 older MPM's and the blow the driver modules in the bottom drawer on the back of the machine. There are different drivers for dif
