There is something preventing the machine to home.
Did you check the air oil level?
Way Lube level?
Air pressure up to 80 psi?
Check all breakers and fuses in electric cabinet.

I know this is kinda old, but it sounds like you might be over volting the machine. What are you running for power? And what is the machine setup for? Mori's of this vintage had a 208 volt switch on...
Hello,
Odd problem with CHNC 3. (1994/1995)
Spindle Brake is not releasing.
If machine is left in JOG Mode and Spindle Free button is pressed: After some time the brake will release and machine...
Shaggy,
In my experience with the T42: You should forget trying to use the Work Shift for your tools. Hardinge taught this method on all their machines in the 1990's. I never took to it. Some will...
Did you ever get the YASNAC to work in your Cobra?
Hello,
Just checking in to see if anyone has some advise on replacing the Sub Spindle Belt on a T42SP. (SG Machine)
Mine turned soft and ran off the sprockets. Luckily, during a setup and not...
Hi.
Can we see this thing run?
Youtube video?
Thx.
Jon,
Thanks for the reply. So what you are saying is that every few days you add 30 WT oil to the damper? My damper is fairly new and is adjusted properly. However, I do not feel it provides much...
ANSWER:
NONE!
Those are grinding tolerances. In that kind of production, holding a .0004 total tolerance (+/-.0002) is not going to happen on that described part over and over on a Swiss...
If you are trying to pull a program out of the Mori's control onto a PC:
AND If you do not have a RS-232 Port.
Then you need a BTR board (Behind the Tape Reader) to be installed.
This will allow...

The Y axis verify is used because of collet drawback in the Sub-Spindle and the subsequent pulling pressures on the Sub's ways. It rechecks the position to ensure accuracy after chucking..

On those old controls a notepad and a pen work very good for copying down all the parameters. There is really not that many and it will probably take you less than a half an hour to write all the...
These are not Hardinge Conquest T42 T-Type Turret Tool Holders. (SG42)
I believe they are Hardinge Conquest 42 (C42) Holders.
They came with the bulk tooling when we purchased our T42 years...
So your problem is you get nothing on the CRT/Monitor, correct?
In this state, can you jog the machine around?
Is everything else working but the CRT/Monitor?
One other question. Was this...
What is your power source?
240 3PH?
208 3PH
Or phase converter?
What voltage?
What voltage was the previous owner running?
These are all important starting points.
For hire,
We have discussed the TC3 tool changer before. I am very familiar with it. You have referred to these "bumper stops" before. My machine has no bumper stops. Please define and photo if you...
What Year is the Machine?
Did you or he look in the back of the programing manual?
There is a listing of the parameters. And most folks penned in the values next to the parameter listing.

Had a problem running G76 Thread cycle on Sub-Spindle today.
Cycle would run but cut bad threads.
Thought maybe bad encoder.
Switched to G92 cycle and thread is fine.
Is there something I need...
The sub spindle lock pin may be your issue. If the proximity sensor goes on said lock pin switch, the machine will not alarm out when this happens. It will just enter a no run state. I had the local...
There are so many questions I could ask about the T42 - like, what effect does temperature have on the lathe during warmup? I run my CHNC out of a partially heated garage here in Canada,................
As for the battery packs, how many other batteries are on this machine that I should worry about? Using a 6V lantern, or wiring up a quad-D-cell battery pack will cover the absolute encoders, but the...
Any job shoppers in here that have used Sawblade.com's Band Saw Blades?
They say US made (TX).
And direct pricing.
But how is the quality compared to a Lenox or Starret M42 blade?
Thanks for...
If you are referring to the Air Cushion / Bump Stop. That always leaks air. The CHNC is an air hog. And if you are running one with just a slight compressor system. The compressor will work hard to...
Depends. What kind of condition is the machine?
Out of a 24/7/365 Production Shop?
Or Small one owner Job Shop?
Somewhere in between?
Were they turning abrasive G20 plastic?
Or regular...
Well, I believe I have figured it out. After typing the original post, it got me to thinking.
This SG-4 tool has been bugging me for a while.
So I went out to the shop floor and mocked it up...
Attached is the Hardinge Literature on this tool. (SG-4 Tool)
Many moons ago, a coworker explained this tool to me. But now, I just can't get the gist of how to use it!
Does anyone out there...
The Talent replaced the Cobra line of lathes.
In my Hardinge arsenal, I have two Cobras.
What alarms are you getting about the Bats?
Are you getting the APZ needs zero alarm?
The bats you...
The batteries will either be in a central location, (like on the electronic enclosure door, Etc.)
(One two of my Hardinge's, the battery box is located on the outside of the cabinet, low to the...
