MP5 Installed new 21/15 gal. pump ; still not working. The variable volume pump is bad – no pressure @ test port & no sled movement.
They are going to hang the other base plate mold in MP6, so we’re OK on parts.
MP21 The DME on the nozzle was left on , ( no mold in press ) & material blew out on moving platen. Not sure when this happened- wasn”t today.
I turned DME off & cleaned the platen.
I checked , cleaned & lubed tie bars – MP13 thru 25
MP -13 Just before shift change , 5:30 pm, they found a blow-back ¾ of the barrel was covered on the top side ( DELRIN )
I cleaned it off ,replaced 3 nozzle bands, & rewired 2 barrel bands. Luckily the connectors for the barrel heaters were on the bottom & weren’t
covered up with plastic.
The nozzle was loose, I turned it by hand.
MP-8 They crashed the robot on top of the cage last night; Mark repaired the eoat. The touch screen lost it’s program again, this time for good.
Had one more Quick Panel in MRO, we installed it & down-loaded program.
We sent out the spare top cover drill for repair.
MP-5 Lost the low volume pump; ordered a new one from Servtek. ( Saturday Delivery )
Replaced pneumatic drill motor on top cover drill station. Replaced bit. Replaced shock absorber. Repaired e-stop circuit. Repaired air leaks on drill.
Set up and run parts to verify. Cleaned up and returned to equipment storage area.
Wired eject back switch on MP15
Replaced (2) batteries in MP23 pc boards. Machine has lost program. Nissei to send procedure by email. We have discs for machine in office in storage box. I will program load tomorrow.
I haven’t had a chance to look at robot on MP24.

Worked on number 22 robot tonight. It alarms while stacking the parts on the belt during the down stroke at random pack numbers. The alarm is displayed as a Y inverter fault and it states the Y speed cannot be controlled. I changed out the y-axis encoder, switched the Y and Z inverter cards, and checked all the connections to the circuit board under the x-axis cover. I checked the different voltages on the main transformer to make sure they were within tolerance and monitored the inverter power supply voltage while the robot was operating and everything seemed ok. I tried changing the y-axis pack speed to different values also.

The screw on MP3 was wrapped with plastic but it was only near the back so we didn't have to pull it. The robot on MP4 lost communication error twice and the screen would freeze up. In order to reset it we had to power down the robot. The nozzle on MP5 caught on fire due to the sled being misaligned ,plastic bleeding off, and shorting some wires out. I replaced the nozzle band, thermocouple, and realigned the sled.

Saturday we kept getting a Y inverter fault again on the Wittman, so today I jumped out the Y Inverter Fault Monitoring Input to the control in the cabinet. After that I dry cycled the robot for 4 hours with no problem.
If there is a minor problem still, the control will not know it and it should continue to run. If there is a real major problem, the robot will hopefully run long enough for us to get more clues to fixing the problem.
Call with any questions.

The surge bins ran out of material tonight which was due to bin #1 material hose having holes all in it. We replaced the hose and checked the others which were all ok. Also dryer 11 on MP16 blew a fuse around 6 p.m. Day shift said it blew one on them too. It ran the rest of the night with no more problems.
