Fanuc 227 - Torque control parameter error
Alarm 227 occurs when the CNC detects invalid torque control parameters in the part program, typically in G336 (torque control) commands. This is most commonly caused by parameter values outside permissible ranges, missing required arguments, or attempting to use torque control without proper hardware/software configuration.
Fanuc 227 - Torque control parameter error
TORQUE CONTROL PARAMETER ERROR
Fanuc PS program alarm 227: TORQUE CONTROL PARAMETER ERROR. This alarm is triggered by an illegal or incorrectly formatted command in the part program, or a programming condition that the Fanuc control cannot execute.
Root Cause Summary
Alarm 227 occurs when the CNC detects invalid torque control parameters in the part program, typically in G336 (torque control) commands. This is most commonly caused by parameter values outside permissible ranges, missing required arguments, or attempting to use torque control without proper hardware/software configuration.
Safety
Causes and Fixes
Locate the G336 command block in the part program where the alarm occurred and verify all required arguments are present (torque limit, feedrate, axis specification).
Check parameter 2850-2854 (torque control settings) to verify the maximum allowable torque percentage limit (typically 0-100% or 0-200% depending on configuration).
Verify the commanded torque value in G336 does not exceed the maximum set in parameters, and that feedrate values are within normal operating range.
Correct the G336 command with valid parameter values and test the program in single block mode.
Torque control can cause unexpected axis behavior if parameters are incorrect. Test carefully.
