Haas ошибка 626

Hello all,

I’ve got a 2006 Haas VF1 SS (15k rpm). It runs great but there is one repetative issue that I cannot figure out.
My post calls for the next operation’s tool immediately after it changes from the previous operation tool to the current operation tool. Such as: The program is started, carousel moves to operation 1 tool, it is loaded into spindle, the next command calls for carousel to move to op2 tool, and then it continues on with operation 1. when op1 ends, op2 tool is already positioned and can be swapped immediately. once op2 tool is in the spindle, the carousel moves to op3 tool and waits while the op2 runs. and so on…

Sometimes, at the end of an operation, it throws the 626 error: Tool Pocket Slide Error. What I have figured out is, the error will subsequently be thrown if the carousel, for whatever reason, ignores the «next operation tool» request at the beginning of the current operation. I’m not sure if it ignores it (as it’s just doing what it’s told) or the error is actually thrown at that point in time and does not present on the screen until the end of the current operation…

This is a snippet of a program that consistently throws the error when the 4th operation (N4) ends and it’s supposed to get the tool for the 5th operation (N5, T7). When op3 starts, the machine spindles op 3 tool from the carousel, then moves the carousel to op4 tool, and starts the actual op3. When op3 is done the machine swaps op3 tool for op4 tool and starts op4. Prioir to starting the actual operation 4, the carousel is supposed to move to op5 tool, but it does not. Once op4 is complete (or almost complete), the spindle shuts off and the error code is thrown. sometimes when the error is thrown the current line of code is not quite at the end of the operation, it can be 10-50 lines from the end. So I hit reset, find N5 in the program and hit start, it swaps the tool and runs operation 5.

I suspect it has to do with some timing issue in the parameters such as 62, 306, etc. I’ve attached a pic of my current parameter settings having to do with the carousel and tool changing. I’m not sure if there’s one that’s just radiccially wrong and causing this issue.
