I have a Fanuc 18i Mori lathe that would hang on indexing the turret if you left the last cut and headed for a safe turret change zone using G53 without a G0 or G1 move off the part first. Especially after some automated cycle. Strangest thing ever. Took me awhile to figure it out because it didn't make sense. But that's what it was doing. Wasn't hydraulics or anything.
Does your turret index under manual indexing without fail, even after many many tries? Mine would. That's why I figured it was something else. Which as I said... it was.
