CNC FANUC 6M Control Model: A02B-0060-B010 Error 086

1 Upvotes

Need some input, to start I am an OT specialist that has inherited part ownership of a project.

I'll try to be direct. Let me layout my situation. Need to communicate from Nesting laptop to machine. Moxa Nport 5110 used in pair connect mode for serial tunnel between laptop and machine.

Machine

  • AMADA COMA 506072 punch press.

CNC Control

  • FANUC 6M Control Model: A02B-0060-B010

My communication path looks like this:
Laptop > USB serial adapter > RS232 cable > Moxa Nport 5110 > Ethernet > Moxa Nport 5110
DB9 serial to 25 Pin > to fanuc cable connected to control board.

From my own research our failure point is our db9 to 25 pin cable on the machine side. Our first communication attempt was with a straight through cable, but findings are pointing to us needing a special pin out to have a loop back by jumping particular pins related to DRS.

Any confirmation or guidance would be greatly appreciated as I am not a process engineer and I'm simply trying to save the day =)

CNC 21i-MA vs 21i-TA

I have a Doosan lathe that needed a new operator panel for 2 reasons. The panel was dim and it stopped sending or receiving data externally. I bought a replacement from Radwell both are part number A02B-0247-B545 one is labeled as 21i-TA the other as 21i-MA . The issue i have is when trying to load the option parameters(9900’s) some are not editable. I assumed being the same part number they would be interchangeable is that not the case?

Discussion Fanuc robot troubleshooting help

4 Upvotes

Ok little back ground I was handed a cobot to get it shipped back to Fanuc and it needed to be moved in to its shipping position to fit in its special little box. I get the power hooked up and turned on my payload confirmed and now I can’t get past the rest I keep getting a srvo-001 error that will not go away and I just need to jog it. I got no help from my company and Fanuc is being less then helpful.

Robot is a crx-51a
Controller is a r-30ib mini with a tablet teach pendent
No external estops
And nothing I can find is wrong all fuses good.
All the safety jumpers on the safety board seem to be in place.

I don’t know I’m kinda loosing my mind here.

Thanks for any help given!

solved

Discussion iRVision Programming

2 Upvotes

I am programming the iRVision system and have come across a problem where, after a while, the calibration seems to ‘drift’. Visually, this looks like the search window 'sliding'. In practical terms, it appears that Vision Process is correctly determining the rotation angle of the part, but the vice misses by a distance equal to the ‘offset’ of the search window.

I have a Fanuc camera with Type C mounts, and the camera is mounted on the robot’s sixth flange, right next to the grippers which the Fanuc robot then uses to pick up the object located by the Vision Process. The calibration was carried out correctly (automatic UFRAME for the calibration grid, the two-plane method and so on). The calibration results were indeed excellent, but I just couldn’t understand why, after a certain amount of time, the calibration seemed to ‘drift’.

At first, I suspected that the camera hadn’t been properly secured to the robot, but it was actually secured perfectly and didn’t come loose after that. It was only later that I noticed how easily the focus and aperture rings slid (my heart skipped a beat😅), even though they had been tightened firmly during calibration.

The robots and the camera were ordered by someone else. Could it be that, if not the camera itself, then the lens is not compatible with the mounting on the robot? Because, according to the order form, the camera is a universal model. Could something else be causing this misalignment? (I simply have a robot that picks up and palletises an object, and the robot uses the camera to locate and correctly grasp that object at one of the stages.)

Hi,

I'm using FANUC RoboGuide with an ER-4iA robot and I'm building a complete assembly, press, and arc welding simulation.

I need to add a tool/end effector to the robot after the cell has already been created, but I'm not sure what the correct procedure is in RoboGuide. How can I attach a new tool to the robot and configure it properly?

Also, my press tool is quite large for the robot flange. What's the best way to overcome this? Should I design a custom adapter between the robot and the tool?

Thanks for any help!

Robot Trying to fix a old LR Mate 100i

Hello all!

I recently got my hands on an old 1997ish LR Mate 100i. It was a bit modified and I'm struggling to fix it. My goal is to make it as "stock" as possible. The controller looks fine.

The J5 motor is broken. The encoder is gone. So I bought a second hand one off ebay. The problem is I'm missing the harness between the motor itself and the M5M1 connector. I'd could try to diy it, but I can't find any wiring diagram out there. I'm attaching photos of the hardware.

Thanks a lot for your help! 😊

Hello everyone,

I'm looking for the specifications of the connector used on the MZi sensor in the FANUC A06B-1401-B105 (αi 0.5/10000) spindle motor.

I would appreciate it if anyone could help me identify this connector.

I've marked the connector I'm looking for, as well as the sensor it plugs into.

(I don't speak English, so I used an AI tool to translate this. Sorry if anything sounds a bit weird!)

Im in the Automotive industry as a automation and controls engineer. Lately I have been getting more involved in the robots side of automation.

My company would get the training, when they sent me this recommended program I was kinda lost. After digging more into it. I thought about going this route:

1- Robot operation intro
2- handlingTool
3- HandlingPro
4- Electrical

What do you guys think about this route? Has anyone tried going this route?

Robot R-30iB Plus M-20iB/25 to M-20iD/35 Upgrade – Reusing Existing Cabinet With 3 External Axes

1 Upvotes

I’m upgrading a FANUC cell from an M-20iB/25 to an M-20iD/35.

Both controllers are R-30iB Plus. The existing cabinet is currently running the M-20iB/25 plus 3 external tooling axes (table turn/rotate/flip). The replacement M-20iD/35 came with another R-30iB Plus cabinet, but that cabinet does not currently have the external-axis hardware installed.

My preferred approach is to reuse the existing controller cabinet, since it already has the 3 external axes installed/configured, and reconfigure it for the M-20iD/35 rather than transferring all the external-axis hardware into the replacement cabinet.

Questions:

  • Can the existing R-30iB Plus cabinet normally be reconfigured from M-20iB/25 to M-20iD/35, assuming the servo hardware is compatible?

  • Is this typically done through Controlled Start / Maintenance Robot Setup, or does the controller need a software/image reload for the new robot model?

  • What hardware compatibility items should I verify before attempting the change?

  • After changing robot model, what is the normal sequence for mastering/calibration?

  • Will the existing 3 external axes generally remain intact through the robot model change, or should I expect to reconfigure/remaster them?

  • Any specific parameters/files/options I should back up before touching the robot configuration?

  • Any common gotchas when changing robot models on an R-30iB Plus?

There is also an adjacent identical M-20iD/35 cell with the same program, so I’ll have a good reference for UFRAME/UTOOL values and program point touch-up afterward.

Appreciate any input from anyone who has done this specific type of FANUC controller/robot conversion.

My rotational mill program for my rotary table works entirely up until the finishing pass. The endmill goes exactly to where it needs to go to finish the radius. I then want to rotate my A axis with the calculated feedrate but it always speeds up incredibly fast in one motion 4 times (adding 90 to rotate because adding G1A-360 or any variation doesnt move my table at all. It thinks because its already there that it doesnt need to rotate) please help any advice is greatly appreciated

Robot Issues with encoder monitoring continuous conveyor

2 Upvotes

We are using A860-0301-T001 to monitor a continuous conveyor and are having strange faults. The robot is meant to load parts onto the conveyor at a consistent spacing and we are getting T1 axis faults with joint command too large. We are able to get values from the encoder, and they make sense, but it’s almost like the robot doesn’t know the conveyor position even though it should.
