Overhaul of a 12 year old XYZ 1060HS VMC
A small job that turned into a complete overhaul! This 12 year old XYZ 1060HS VMC had ground to a halt with multiple x-axis drive alarms. We initially lent our customer a LT module and regulator card to fit themselves, as this was believed to be a source of faults. After fitting, our customer requested we attend the site, as although the new hardware had made a difference, there were still issues with the machine.
On attending site, we found the X-axis servo motor to have failed, all windings were down to ground, the power cable was also showing excessively low resistance and needed changing. We also found that the X-axis ballscrew and bearings were in a very poor state and after consulting with our customer, the decision was made to replace / repair everything that was causing an issue.
So we supplied and fitted a new 2x50A LT module and reg card, a new motor power cable, an overhaul/rebuild of the servo motor, an overhaul of the ballscrew and replacement bearings. The machine was fully setup and function tested, resulting in a very happy customer and a machine running back up to full capacity.
Please do call us, even if only for advice. We will always try to help first with advice and remote support. If we cannot help remotely, we will advise you of the best actions and attend the site to resolve the issue if necessary.

A nice straightforward job replacing the spindle in a Kitamura horizontal machining centre.
The customer had a spare ready on site, so we just had to take the old one out and fit the new one back in.
