Gantry Skewing esceeding limit

Postby Jason Stephenson » Tue, Jun 28 2011, 4:14PM

Having a problem with our cnc one of the boys was cutting and a bit of board moved and got jambed in between the gantry and the locater pins for flip op operation and skewed the gantry out of square we fixed that and got it all square again but the problem i have now is that when we home the machine it comes up with an error that the (gantry skewing exceeds its limit bring up servo box for skew updates) i know there probably is an easy fix for this but its just way over my head

Jason,
You will have to pull your cover and back off one of your belts, the one away from home, then home machine and reset belt.
Best to call thm as I dont remember specifics...

Steps to resolve gantry skew error:

Remove belt from axis drive opposite of HOME switch, HOME machine, place belt back on drive in which it was removed.
