A044
Description:
The Bar Loading Error alarm occurs during the top-cut positioning sequence when loading profiled material. During the loading cycle,
for profiled material, the bar stock is brought to the back of the clamping device. When this position is reached, the spindle is jogged
at a very low rpm and the pusher begins a pecking motion until the profile of the material and the profile of the chuck jaws are aligned
and the bar is fed out to the top-cut position. If the top-cut position is not reached after 20 pecking cycles, this alarm is generated.
Solution:
Alarm needs to be cleared. Press the STOP button on the remote control station to clear and reset the alarm. Remove the bar from
the spindle and restart the top-cut positioning cycle.
