Table movement problem

Post by Glenn Van Reason »

Our machine was estopped this afternoon, when we tried to mc reset it the table moves in the wrong direction to go home. Looking at the table the normal home position for the X axis is to the left. our table runs to the right till it runs out of screw and then emergency stops.
Any ideas? Tried all the usual, stop restart machine, power down etc etc

That's good! It sounded scary. I did have a loose \"C\"marker once that was similar.
