Fanuc Parameter 1829 (2025)

This parameter defines the allowable margin of error (dead zone) between the commanded position and the actual position of the machine axis when the movement is supposed to be finished.

When an axis moves to a specific coordinate, the control waits for the axis to settle within the range defined by Parameter 1829 before signaling that the move is complete. fanuc parameter 1829

Subject: Servo Alarm Detection Threshold (Excessive Error) System: FANUC Series 16i / 18i / 21i / 30i / 31i / 32i (and equivalent 0i models) Category: Servo Parameter (Axis-Specific) This parameter defines the allowable margin of error

Heavy Cutting: For roughing in steel or Inconel, you might increase 1829 (e.g., from 150% to 200%) to allow the servo to push through heavy chiploads. ✅ Fragile Setups: For delicate parts or thin-wall machining, lower 1829 to act as a "torque limiter" and avoid crushing the workpiece. ✅ Troubleshooting: If you get random load alarms but the axis moves smoothly by hand, the value may be set too conservatively for your application. ✅ Fragile Setups: For delicate parts or thin-wall
