The common causes and solutions for the tool disc of a machining center getting stuck and unable to rotate are as follows:


I. Main Reasons

Abnormal spindle orientation Angle ‌ : orientation error caused by collision or loosening of the synchronous toothed belt

Tool change origin position offset ‌ : the origin is inaccurate due to misoperation of the machine tool or long-term use

Pneumatic/hydraulic system failure ‌ : insufficient pressure (6±1 kg for BT40) or damage to pneumatic components

Abnormality of the manipulator tool arm ‌ : the tool has not completely disengaged or the tool arm is damaged

Ⅱ. Solutions

Emergency handling ‌ :

Release the motor brake and use a wrench to rotate the outer hexagon to disengage the knife arm

Check if the air pressure meets the standard and clear the accumulated water in the gas line

System calibration ‌ :

Recalibrate the spindle orientation Angle (M19 command)

Adjust the position of the second tool changing origin

Preventive measures ‌ :

Regularly inspect the synchronous toothed belt and braking device

Avoid accidental operation and collision, and keep the airway dry
