I have a Fanuc Robodrill a-T21iDL machine with a kawatatec pallet changer. The issue that I am having is during a run cycle it will switch over to the pallet change program. What causes this? How can it be fixed? There seems to be no pattern to when this happens. It does mostly happen while pallet A is in the machine the most. Has happened over several different programs over several months. The problem is not able to be replicated. We have had a tech in to look at it and could not come up with a cause.
is the switch over to the pallet change program done at the end of the cycle or does it happen in the middle of the cycle ?
when you say switch to the pallet change program is it the 9000 program or is it the m code for the pallet change ?
with the kawatatec pallet changer could you run the pallet changer program with the pallet changer switch on A-A to avoid the change over ?. This way there would be no change over to the pallet changer program
