Indicates that the laser source is not communicating properly or is in a standby mode. Action: Check the RF power supply unit, fiber cable connections, and ensure the chiller is at the correct temperature.
Often triggered during the discharge cycle. Can indicate worn-out high-voltage components, failed vacuum tubes, or internal arcing.
| Error Message | Explanation | Common Causes & Troubleshooting Steps | |:---|:---|:---| | | A problem with the capacitive sensor in the cutting head. The feedback signal for the distance between the nozzle and the sheet metal is not what the system expects. | • Dirty Cutting Head : This is the most frequent cause. Cleaning the head, including the capacitive sensor board, often resolves the issue. • Faulty Sensor Board : If cleaning doesn't help, the sensor board may need replacement. • This warning may not stop the machine from cutting immediately but should be addressed to prevent future issues. | | Error n2 | An error related to one of the machine's axes, often the Y-axis, hitting its end-of-travel limit. | • Machine Limits : The machine may have been sent beyond its travel range. Check your part's position in the program relative to the machine bed. • Axis Position : Adjust the start position of the Y-axis in your program or on the machine's control panel. | | Amp Fault Z2 | A problem with the drive system for the Z2 bearing channel. | • Mechanical Issue : A bearing in the Z2 axis could be damaged or seized. • Drive Issue : The servo driver (amplifier) for the Z2 axis might be faulty. • This error will stop the machine completely until resolved. | bystronic laser error code list

Understanding Bystronic Laser Error Codes: A Complete Troubleshooting Guide
Remember: every error is a message. It’s your Bystronic machine’s way of protecting itself (and you) from damage. Listen to it, log it, and solve it systematically. integrated into the machine's control software or contact
The machine throws a hard fault when attempting to fire the laser.
: General Beam Source Error . Indicates a serious fault in the RF circuit or internal switch, often triggered by overtemperature (>60 °C).
Below is a general overview and a list of some common error codes that might be encountered with Bystronic laser machines. Please note that the specific error codes and their meanings can vary depending on the machine model, software version, and the nature of the issue. It's always best to consult the machine's user manual or contact Bystronic's technical support for the most accurate and up-to-date information. | • Dirty Cutting Head : This is the most frequent cause
These errors relate directly to the laser beam generation and the gas cutting parameters. Gas Mixing and Pressure Faults
When calling support, always have your and the exact Error Code Number ready to expedite your diagnostic process.
If the code involves a cutting head collision or axis limit, switch the machine to manual mode. Carefully jog the axis away from the material or the physical limit switch. Step 3: Check Essential Fluid and Gas Levels
Clean the protective glass of your fiber head or inspect CO2 external optics for dust.
