System pausing from a warning on the system stating “material not at the head"

System pausing from a warning on the system stating “material not at the head"


  • The real issue is material spin out from many reasons. Four things to check and do for this issue.
  1. Model spin out warning, just search “test#” in Nopepad ++  see data below (must unload and reload to fix)

  1. Calibrations not performed in correct order see imaged below (Auto calibration run first, then Manual calibration. The Manual Calibration must be run after each Auto Calibration. The Manual calibration should be no higher than 2 on all sides X1/X2/Y1/Y2 , rerun Manual calibration unlit it’s at 2 or lower) 

Auto cal done first


Manual Calibration done second

 

  1. Verify no pull force reasons (replace upper Y block if old and cut 2” off the tube going into bay if bent from metal clip) see below.

 

  1. Blue elbow popping off head during loading/unload/auto change over and building. Just install printed bracket (This is only a work around until the head molding gets changed to prevent this issue)

How to install on head

 

I have provided a power point about this and other issues. When you report a “pausing” problem please make sure these Four things get done.

  1. Unload and reload material having the issue.
  2. Run Auto calibration then Manual calibration until in specification.
  3. Verify upper Y block replaced and bay tubing not getting bent
  4. Bracket installed on head prevent tube from popping off during loading/unloading and building.
