Channel block: Dresser, speed has been limited
The alarm can be triggered by the following grinding cycle: CYCLE421 Remedy: Check speed and program a lower value in the NC program if necessary
Safety
- Refer to Siemens documentation
- Ensure qualified technician performs repairs
Common Causes
- Spindle speed programmed exceeds dresser maximum allowable speed for the grinding cycle
- CYCLE421 grinding cycle parameters set with speed values incompatible with dresser specifications
- Dresser tool configuration or type mismatch with programmed spindle speed
- Machine parameter settings for maximum spindle speed not properly configured for grinding operations
Troubleshooting Steps
- 1Review the NC program block referenced in alarm (block %2) and verify the spindle speed (S-word) value programmed for CYCLE421
- 2Check dresser tool specifications and maximum allowable speed ratings in the machine documentation
- 3Compare current spindle speed parameter settings against dresser manufacturer limits and CYCLE421 cycle requirements
- 4Reduce the programmed spindle speed value in the NC program to operate within dresser speed limitations and re-execute the cycle
- 5Verify machine grinding parameters and dresser configuration in Siemens 840D/828D parameter settings match the application requirements
