Help!!! I have a VF3SS and have a problem with the side mounted tool changer tool arm during a tool change. Its rotating half way and then stopping, Ive tried putting in a heavy tool to try and stop it but makes no difference. Please help!!!

What alarms do you get?

What alarms do you get?

no alarms, just sticks when trying to do a tool change, could it be the cambox or servo amp??

I'm no tech, just trying to get the ball rolling for you. Someone should be along shortly that knows a helluva lot more than I do.

Does the arm work normally at 5% rapid? 25? 50 or 100%?

It strikes me as odd that you don't get alarms. Does the cycle simply stall infinitely?

it happens at any rapid, my worker txt me earlier as im out of the country at the moment, just said when doing a tool change the arm stops mid way through and we have todo the recovery process??

It should be giving some sort of alarm...but shy of that I'd say your guy may not be telling you everything that happened:nono:

I've NEVER had my arm stop half way FWIW - 2006 VF3SS
