[Er...] Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Our Cuntura G2 RDS head is starting to act up. When it rotates about the A angle, it sometimes will rotate, and as it is about to seat, to continue the program, will get "caught" if you will, trying to seat, with i think the air turning off and on, acting like it's having a seizure. After a few seconds, it stops, waits 20-30 seconds, and then finally continues with inspection. It's random when it happens, but it does seem to be progressing, meaning happening more often, and have longer delays. It doesn't seem to affect the inspection, and I don't get any errors. I called Zeiss about it, and they said they don't see anything in the error logs, so to further assist they need to send someone on site to assess what's happening. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? I figured I would check here first before having a technician come out, replace it, and tell me it's good to go.

[Cl...] Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 This happened to me years ago. We had a bad collision. The gears in the RDS are aluminum and stripped. You may have something else going on? I'm just letting you know what happened to us our when head did the same thing. Try removing the XXT were it attaches magnetically to the RDS and clean the contacts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Er...] Posted January 31, 2022 Author Share Posted January 31, 2022 Thanks Gilbert, we cleaned them the last 2 weeks during qualification of the probes. Did you end up replacing your sensor then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
