Kollmorgen S200 Servo Amplifiers

[lee-waterjet]

Needing a bit of help with some Kollmorgen S200 Servo Amplifiers.
I have 4 which are connected to AKM31E-ACDNC-00 and 2 connected to AKM42J-CCDNC-00. These are connected to a PMDI MC4000 motion card.
This setup has been running fine for the last 12 years on this particular machine and lots of other machines.

Now here is the problem...........

When i power the machine up and reset the e-stop all amplifiers are enabled fine. After a while 1 amplifier, not always the same one will fault giving 9 flashes which is Motor l-l or l-n Short, Line-to-Line, Line-to-Neutral or Line-to-PE short on the motor output causing an instantaneous over current. Then another will fault and then another.

I have pretty much replaced everything but still getting the fault. Before i go out and buy 6 new amplifiers, has anyone got any ideas as to what could be causing this issue.

Thanks in advance.

I am having a similar issue with my Kollmorgen S200 series drives. 9 flashed repeating... I've noticed that most of the time I can power cycle the drives and they start working again. I've also noted that this fault happens more on startup. Also have one drive that works better now that I installed a PC fan onto it.

I've checked the cables, motors, & control boards and have found no faults.

I'm running them in a Calypso water jet, Mark II D
