Hitachi Seiki HG400 III

[chrisgraf2]

We have recently purchased a used HG400 III horizontal. Everything is working fine after we worked a few bugs out. We would like to slow down the pallet change because we are pushing the max load capacity between our tombstone and work pieces. Does any one know if there is a parameter or hydrolic control valve that will do this for us? The machine has a FANUC (SEICOS) 16 M control. Thanks!

Hi!
I have the same center only with FANUC15B. Looks like it is impossible.
The oil pressure has to me 70kg/sq.sm, and oil sensor is very simple.
If you will try to decrease the speed, the timeout will alarm the APC.
Use it as it is.

If you haven't found it already, the hydraulic solenoid valves under the pallet changer have flow controls on them, you should be able to close them up a bit to slow it down, time out for pallet change is fairly long, I'd have to look it up in the manual. I also have an HG400III in house.
