The drive for the Turret 1 goes into alarm no 52 on the MELSERVO-SC 102T servo drive.Does anybody have the alarm list to understand the reason for the problem?Going by the fact that these drives are obsolete any ideas how to go about repairing/replacing the drive.

Yikes. Sounds to me like you bought a bunch of old used and abused machines thinking you were getting a good deal.. and im sure they were a great deal, but now you know why...

Sorry I can't be of any real help to your situation.

We had that problem on our E32 last summer. The drive is failing. The only one to repair it is Mitsubishi. It was just about $2500 USD for us to get ours repaired, (they charge a flat fee no matter what is wrong with it). It took about 2 weeks from the time it left until it was back in the machine running for us.

They do also offer a complete retrofit kit to update it to a more recent drive. It comes with the new drive, a new servo, the cabling, and instructions to install it. Price...do not fall over...$12,000 USD!

Yes, the older machines are just that... Older. But we paid $24,000 for our E2-32 Citizen. The closest comparable M32 new is in excess of $300,000. Not that I wouldn't mind having one, it just is not in the budget for some of us! LOL
