Restoration of C-Axis on WASINO Machine

The customer requested a technical intervention due to an anomaly detected on the C-axis of the WASINO machine, specifically related to a malfunction in the axis locking system.

During the intervention, a thorough system analysis was conducted, including verification of the proper functioning of relays M54 and M55, as well as a check of control valves SOL54 and SOL55. Additionally, a manual inspection of the axis movement system was carried out to identify any anomalies.

• Disassembly and inspection of the control valves
• Identification of a mechanical blockage on the SOL55 coil shaft
• Thorough cleaning of the shaft and valve

The intervention enabled the complete restoration of the machine’s functionality, thanks to a meticulous cleaning of the mechanical components, followed by a post-intervention functional check. Finally, a full test was conducted under operating conditions to ensure everything was working perfectly.

The machine was successfully returned to production without any further alarms or anomalies in the operation of the C-axis.

This case highlights the importance of regular maintenance of mechanical components, which is essential for preventing failures. It also underscores the need for a methodical approach in problem diagnosis to quickly identify the root causes. Finally, it demonstrates the effectiveness of targeted solutions based on a thorough technical analysis to achieve a definitive resolution.
