Precision Zone Okuma BLII-D AC Servo Drive Repair Experts

At Precision Zone, we specialize in Okuma product repairs which include a wide range of AC Servo Drives. One of the many types of servos we service is the Okuma BLII-D servo.

Okuma’s BLII-D servo amplifiers come in two flavors – a single axis or dual axis offering. The naming convention of the unit distinctly identifies the power rating of the axes. The single axis drives range from 15kW to 150kW whereas the dual axis version will range between 15kW and 75kW.

The drive is designed to be compact and efficient while allowing for easy to see alarm and status monitoring. Using check pins on the main servo control board, motor speed and torque can be check as voltage outputs.

When assessing the functionality of a Okuma BLII-D Servo Drives, our highly skilled repair team of engineers and technicians employs a basic four step troubleshooting process:

1. Visual Overview
2. Static Test
3. Checks Under Power
4. Alarm Codes Verification

This overview is Precision Zone’s basic troubleshooting process. Once our repair team starts on the job, we use specialized and customized testing fixtures, Huntron trackers, signal generators, oscilloscopes, milli and mega ohm meters, as well as any other necessary tools we need to assure quality repair work. Most importantly, every repair is fully tested in our custom-built simulators under load with a motor to replicate real-life working environment.

Precision Zone goes as far as using heating chambers and overnight dynamic testing, when applicable, to guarantee performance of the repaired product when it arrives back with the customer.

Repair Process for Okuma BLII-D Servos

Visual Overview

When conducting a visual check, the technician inspects the drive for any mechanical damage to the drive itself and any printed circuit boards. The technician then proceeds to verify connections are tight and correct inside the drive and there are no loose screws, wires or debris. Additionally, the unit is checked for any burn marks on the components, printed circuit boards or chassis. During the visual inspection, excessive dirt on cooling components is noted as well as the functionality of the heat sink.

Basic Static Check

Output Module Testing

Precision Zone repair technicians use digital multimeters with diode testing capabilities and also take resistance measurements to conduct a static test. For these units in particular, our team of technicians uses the diode function of the multimeter as well as huntron devices to check the output modules.

Positive Lead	Negative Lead	Reading
U	Positive Bus Terminal	0.34V-0.40V
V	Positive Bus Terminal	0.34V-0.40V
W	Positive Bus Terminal	0.34V-0.40V
Negative Bus Terminal	U	0.34V-0.40V
Negative Bus Terminal	V	0.34V-0.40V
Negative Bus Terminal	W	0.34V-0.40V

Checks Under Power and Alarm Code Verification

Upon successfully passing all visual and static checks, the drive is tested under power. Any reported alarm codes are verified and if no alarms are present or once the drive has been fully repaired, the drive is tested in our Okuma series simulator. Alarms and drive status can be verified on the LEDs directly on the servo pack.

On the BLII-D servo packs, there are a handful of red LEDs to display alarm status. A green LED (PON) shows power is supplied to the control board and a yellow LED (OP) turns off once the machine ready signal is received. A few of the remaining red LEDs describe alarms as shown in the following table.

Common Alarms for the Okuma BLII-D Servo Series

Alarm Code	Description	Quick Checks
OCM	Over-current in the motor	Check wiring and ensure that all terminal screws are tight Check the motor and motor cables for low winding resistance (meg the motor)
OCS	Over-current in the servo	Ensure that the inter-board connectors are securely inserted between the control and power boards. Power off, disconnect motor and power up. If LED is still lit, repair of the servo drive is necessary
OV	DC Voltage is abnormally high	Measure the incoming R-S-T voltages within a multimeter. Standard voltage levels reside between 170 and 222VAC
UV	Under Voltage	Check incoming power with a multimeter Check to make sure voltage input is at least 170VAC Make sure circuit breaker is ON
ROH	Regenerative discharge is overheating	Ensure that the inter-bond connectors are securely inserted between the control and power boards Check the screws on THR and COM terminals
CIRCUIT BREAKER TRIPS		Check all wiring Statically check the protection diodes on IGBT Check diode module
