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

Hey everyone, We use a MyData MY12 machine and we are experiencing a problem with the Midas head. I recently replaced a torn vacuum tube that goes on the zfib card. The machine worked perfectly for a day and a half but now MY12 has completely stoppe

Start by checking cables. Odd that the C-motor would initialize, but, then, theta fails when you move the Z-motor. Sounds like something's got a loose connection somewhere. Possibly in the connector going into the C-motor. If that's a no-go, try

Hi all, We were able to fix the issue. We replaced the MOT cards with the MOT cards in the good machine. That, however, did not resolve the issue. The issue was very basic; one of the fuses (fi fuse) located to the left of the MOT cards became open.

Hmm...that's a good point, Bilal. To tell you the truth, I'm not sure where the MOT cards are in the MY series (or if they're still using MOT cards the way the TP series did). In the TP's, they were in the computer bay on the left hand side of the

acceleration is set to lowest. Ribbon cables were replaced, theta motor replaced. I also see a message pop up just after F-MOT1-26/156:MOVFI: MOTOR TIMEOUT / F-AXIS-182:C-AXIS NOT properly out when expected / 25v reads 3V. Now all these messages

I can't remember what motor control cards in the machine are interchangeable, but if the controller card for the theta axis is a common control card then you can swap out the one currently controlling the theta axis with a different axis and see if t

This is a theta axis head 2 error. Manually spin the head and make sure the bearings are loose and spinning. If not, they may need lubricated or serviced. You can also swap theta amps between the heads to see if you have an amplifier problem. Good L

Hello, Finaly, What was the problem on your Hydra head? Maybe my message comes too late, but my answer might help ... It could be linked to a problem with the Hydra Z motor / encoder. In certain circumstances, the Hydra Z axis is not in the correct

Hi Bobpan, Many thanks for your response. While none of your suggestions were new to me it did get me to thinking and going back to the start again only to find incorrect switch settings on the Theta Driver Card. PROBLEM SORTED! I don't know how
