Positioning error: Machine coordinate system operating position not accurate

What does Positioning error mean?

The operating position of the machine coordinate system is not accurate, leading to precision issues during operations.

• Settings of machine data (MD31030, MD31050/MD31060) are inconsistent with actual mechanical parameters
• Frequency multiplication on the drive encoder
• Turret not installed properly on the machine
• Loose mechanical coupling or slipping belt
• Necessity to adjust compensation of leadscrew pitch and/or backlash

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Check whether the settings of machine data MD31030 (pitch of leadscrew) and MD31050/MD31060 (denominator/numerator of deceleration ratio) are consistent with actual mechanical parameters.

2. 2

   Verify whether the turret is installed properly on the machine.

3. 3

   Check whether the mechanical coupling is loose or the belt is slipping and secure them.

4. 4

   Determine whether it is necessary to adjust the compensation of the leadscrew pitch and/or the backlash.
