just a though,the machine was working so i find it hard to believe the switch failed during the move |
Those switches will fail at times,not often but they do.
I doubt the move had anything to do with it unless someone bumped it when tthe machine was crated or tied down.
We have three machines with the M32 control,the machines are over 10yrs old and i've replaced about 3 switches in that time.
If you take into account all the Mazaks we have,i've replaced about 15 switches.
More times than not,the switch comes loose and just needs retightened.
The machines we have are T-plus,M-plus,M32 and the homing system is about the same on all of them.
