Monday

Me and Mark worked on Wittman most of the day today.  Found a few problems, but we think that now there is a problem with the X-axis encoder.  We’re going to order a new one in the morning.

Thanks

Worked with #6 robot checking it out etc.
I have it homing and have all the positions entered for the baseplate.

Ran into a snag when I tried it out in automatic with the ejectors not ejecting after opening.

I spoke with Mark and let him know where I was at with that. There may be some interface differences between the Star robots and the AEC's?

FYI-We also had an issue with #13's pump kicking out intermittently.
Found out that clamp position was off due to incorrect mold thickness data.
When the machine sees a problem with "abnormal clamp closing", it activates the motor stop circuit. It was apparent by the fact that it was kicking out upon lockover.

Have a great week.
