Bypassing Spindle Alarms During Repairs for Fanuc CNC

Something Fanuc CNC related that I just learned last week: Many times during a spindle replacement service, it is necessary to disconnect or remove the spindle sensor (position coder or high resolution magnetic pulse coder.) The alarms that occur as a result of this disconnection may inhibit NC operations or other machine functions that would be desired to complete the needed repairs.

Stopping Axis Feed on Fanuc Controls: Using RFO Parameter

Every now and then, I come across a machine that does not respond this way. The feedrate over-ride switch is set to 0%, but the axis will continue to move at a slow speed. I’m not sure why anyone would want this to be the case.
