Please kindly assist with S-Offset pile limit switch, it does respond but the table just stops and stops moving.

Often times it’s worn contacts in the switch itself, but have you tried raising height of the 8mm “trigger” bolt?

    I’ve tested the switch and even changed it, the switch does a click sound showing it still works but the table doesn’t seem to go up as it should, what is the 8mm trigger bolt?
     
    Another critical component to consider is the brake relay, it’s one of the hardest working components in the electrical cabinet. I forgot the relay number, but it’s something like d230. Look at the lower end of the relay and examine for heavy carbon buildup.
     
    The bolt that the switch button contacts is adjustable, up or down. Just because the switch clicks doesn’t mean the contacts are good.

    I’ll check it out, thank you.
    Where exactly is the trigger bolt?
     
    In the feeder suction head, have you been examining the correct switch? It’s the switch that the governor foot mechanism contacts under the front cover of the suction head.
     
    That is the switch I’m talking about, unless I’m wrong please correct me

    Wrong switch. The switch you’re looking for is inside the feeder suction head. This switch regulates the rsising of the pile. I may have misunderstood your problem, is the pile not raising during production or won’t raise at all?
     
    Is this the one? Responsible to keep raising the pile?

    Have you checked the delivery pile low limit switch? If failed or stuck, feeder won’t raise
     
    That is high limit switch, there’s also the one on the top of feeder suction head along with a loose connection of the cable plug in same area.
     
    The two switches mounted on delivery chain guides, gear side. Those are upper and lower limits.
     
    Is it this one?. Don’t have that manual that shows relay labelling? If yes please share, thank you so much for helping me out so far

  • The switch inside the suction head is only for governing the rsising of feeder head while in production.
