So tricky couple of weeks. Had a water leak onto an y,z linear motor ( that's right a dual linear high speed motor, very very expensive) managed to dry it out and touch wood it's running ok.
One of the photos shows the magnetic rail for the y axis portion of the linear motor. These magnets are special magnets called earth magnets, again they are rare and expensive.
The other photo is a close up of a lower die locking pin that had jammed due to build up of small metal slugs. This happened because the protection cover had not been replaced. £14.00 piece of equipment would have prevented major downtime. Customer is now aware and rectifying. Should have been picked up on a service. Oh and I currently don't service this yet.
Hope this is of interest to some of you geeks out there.
