The first thing to do is to change the z-rod. Sometimes a very old z-rod spring will weaken causing it to reject many parts. If it only rejects parts after a nozzle change....you may need to put some super lube grease on the O-rings on the bottom of

Hello everybody Lately our machine has been working pretty well, but it can’t last too long. Now, during this week’s production cycle, it began to increase the component’s reject rate to alarming levels (obviously the operators reported me when the m

On the my12 the panel on the front of the machine comes off two screws each corner to loosen the panel. There is a pull out tray that gives you easier access to the computer, ps3, etc. It will be the box in the center on top it should label where eac

The 2 big ribbon cables, on top of the X wagon. They run from the booster board, in the back, to the board on top of the X-wagon. They wear out and need to be replaced, periodically. Since, the tool cycle works, the Z-motion is probably working ok. I

Hello, This is from my old documents....hope it helps. I would first try mod code 53 = 2 first.....if the machine is a 2C. The motor was known for causing this problem after getting old. These are all resolutions for motor error 4. Step Potential P
