cp 2000 over heat?

my cp2000 screen black out suddenly, i think it is over heat
need break around 5 minutes then turn it back on
then after an hour or two it went black again
anybody with solution?

 

Out of curiosity, what is the temperature of your shop?

 

around 30 celcius, i'm using air conditioned but seems a bit short
now i open the table top it never shut down
but not a very good sight

 

Typically the room should be no more than 23 Celsius. High temperatures have been known to cause electronics in cabinets which are not cooled to have intermittent issues.

If it is working when you have the cabinet open, it proves the point.

 

I have seen this before just make sure if its cp 2000 it should have fan and filter on the front of it make sure its working and the filter is clean

 

Adding to LLS, if CP2000 computer is MC2 or MC3, you have to check the fans on the case. If the seal on the case is broken, open the case, clean inside with dry compressed air carefully and then run it again. If not, check it with Heidelberg. As I know Heidelberg had a general call few years ago for the computers, maybe your press is on the list.

 

i dont see any air outlet from the body. i see one fan from left compartment to right under the computer
but no hole to the outside
i plan to make hole and install a fan, but kind of worried

 

Since the fan is sucking air from out and blowing inside the case, there is no need for the air outlet. Did you check the case? Is it sealed or not? if not, open it and clean inside as i explained before. I did it several times on different machines and they are still running.

 

I would take a look inside and see if the IPC shows any sign of life. Our shop is at around 30 C as well. Sounds like a back-light problem to me. Does the screen flicker or anything?

 

No There is no problem With the screen
Now I add more air conditioner so now around 24 c
The cp works fine, but if it is a long day work and it's getting warmer
It still turn off occasionally. I just have to rest around 15 minutes to make it works again

 

Good to hear, but it would be better if you could change IPC. It's a common problem in MC2 and MC3 generation. MC4 is more reliable.

 

Hello mathew
I've seen your history
It seems youve been experienced the same problem
How much do you spent to replace the ipc?

 

What ipc looks like? Haha sori kind of amateur
Anybody have picture? If it is broken what is the sign?

 

Does the ipc means the computer under the cp2000 screen?
Man it's gonna cost a lot, I already ask Heidelberg for the system it cost 20.000 us dollar

 

Yes you are right, it costs a lot, but I had repaired three of them. They have been running for three years. If you know a good engineer, I can help you to repair it.

 

How can you help?
You mean idont have to buy the whole ipc?

 

Yes, I mean you don't need buying a new IPC.
