A025
Description:
The Servo Motor Following Error alarm occurs due to a mechanical obstacle preventing the bar stock from feeding out. The torque on
the servo motor will build up when the obstacle prohibits the stock from moving, once the torque reaches a certain limit the PLC
instructs the servo amplifier to quit pushing and this alarm message appears on the remote control station.

Alarm needs to be cleared. Press the STOP key on the remote control station to clear the message and reset the
alarm.
• Check for any mechanical obstacles that the bar stock may be hitting. Remove obstacle if this is the case.
• Check the bar stock diameter. Make sure that the actual diameter is the same as the value entered in for the
corresponding parameter in the Part Setup menu.
• Check the alignment between the bar feeder and the lathe. The lathe or the bar feeder may have shifted over
a long period if either is not lagged to the floor securely.
If the problem persists please contact an LNS agency for further information.
