I don't work on quads but I can give you some things to look for... Each of the moving axis work off a motor that is controlled by a "drive". Some of these drives have a fault or error output that is connected to the motion controller. One of your

A customer of mine has a Quad 4C that will not home in the X. It used to have the problem in the Y then they changed the cards and now that machine will not home in the X when powered up. Anybody have any ideas. I think I know what the problem is, bu

My Quad IVc's will also do the same thing. Mine are equipped with CyberOptics scanners, not QuadAlign. The Cyberoptics scanners do go bad and once they do, they get very warm to the touch and at the same time, if the Quad is reset, the theta axis wil

Hi larry, don't know if you resolved your problem but if machine is picking part three times, rejecting all three but places number fourth your nozzle pickup is misaligned very slightly. During the first three pickups the nozzle is finally seating it

Was running production when the head just came to a stop, motor went off, error window said to home. Upon attempting to home, got message: G1T2 homing error; index mark not found. I've tried rebooting the machine, but this error still appears. Any

If the part is 10mm or less as long as you are scanning it near the top...it should work. The other possible problem is dirt on the quadalign lens. Clean off the lens and watch it when it homes....both heads should home the same way. If the head jum

Clear the memory again and try to input by handheld the modcodes 1 by 1 and see when the problem happens. You can input a number then press home and home. Sounds to me like a number is incorrect but its hard to tell. Are you sure the file that you ar

So what your telling me is kind of vague. Does the machine home and go to the front left corner of the machine? If it does....this could be a quad align problem....meaning dirt on the lens or so-forth. You should watch the heads homing in the z-axi

I'm with an annoying problem with an IV-c. Almost all the time the Y-axis "stuck" when the machine is homing. The motor tries to move the axis but only make a sound. If I move the axis by hand it can complete the homing and then goes to the IDLE. So
