Lotem 800 drum vibration error

[ob1]

Hi all

Having an issue with my 2001 lotem 800.

From start up it's giving a drum vibration error . That's as soon as machine is turned on before even trying to run the drum, does anyone have any ideas about this ?


Just to add to this the vibration sensors have been shorted a long time ago so shouldn't be anything to do with that. I have replaced the mcf board with another one no difference

Try replacing your Drum Driver.

Try replacing your Drum Driver.

Thanks for your reply is it the The elmo you mean

It may have been called Elmo by the Scitex technicians.
It is located at the bottom of the D-Box (Distribution Box).

Do you get any error messages?

Long Shot:
Check the reflective sticker on the top side of the drum (LHS from back of the Lotem).

Hi repro pro .

Thanks for your help . I cut open the shirt on one of the sensors and rejoined and it sorted it. Thanks again for your help

Glad to help when I can, I was in similar situations myself.
Good luck.
BTW,I have recently taken apart my last Lotem, so I have plenty of good spare parts, should you need any.

Could you WhatsApp me +447459626622

I need the following

DDB card
Interlock board
Interface cable
Drum driver
All 3 power supplies that are behind Lbox.

Is it a 24 or 48 diode machine

I certainly have all these items since I actually bought and took apart three 48 Diodes machines.
Was cheaper buying 2nd hand machines than buying individual spare parts when sorely needed...
I will send you a WhatsApp message tomorrow.
