C9

Spindle Synchronization Position Error

Fanuc · Series 30i/31i/32i-MODEL B Plus

What does C9 mean?

In spindle synchronization, the position error exceeded the alarm detection level, which is defined by parameter No. 4516. This indicates that the motor's actual position deviates too much from its commanded position during synchronized operation.

Common Causes

  • Position error exceeding the alarm detection level (parameter No. 4516) during spindle synchronization.

Repair Steps

  1. 1

    Modify the sequence so that motor excitation (SFR, SRV) is turned off only after spindle synchronization is released.

  2. 2

    Review the cutting conditions to prevent overload.

  3. 3

    Review the alarm detection level setting (parameter No. 4516) to ensure it is appropriate for the application.
