Re: Using a servo motor as a power feed
typically servo motors are used in CNC bridgeports, so i dont think it is a stretch.? Many videos about it online. some even use window motors from autos.? ?plus a simple controller would be all

Thanks for the input everyone, a two person operation it will be.

Re: Recieved My Bridgeport Today
Agreed - absolutely do - it depends on the strength of your single arm of course, but on the few times I've had to do it I treated it as a two-person job, one to lift/push on the head and one to turn

"Whatever you do DO NOT use worm on its own, you may well strip it. Use a combination of other support and the worm until it gets to 45 degree" Heed this caution.

Whatever you do DO NOT use worm on its own, you may well strip it. Use a combination of other support and the worm until it gets to 45 degree then you can use the worm on its own. Hope this helps John

Re: Recieved My Bridgeport Today
You will need to crank it up with the worm, unless that¡¯s broken, which can happen if you try to crank it without loosening the 4 bolts. if the worm turns freely, it¡¯s broken. If not, use it. It

Recieved My Bridgeport Today
Hi All, Recieved my new to me Bridgeport today, very happy with S&R Machines in Connecticut for a fine job on all the upgrades. They shipped it with the head turned down 90 degrees which makes sense.

Re: CNC and Phase converter
Yes I am in USA, CT. So yes two 110v "legs" make 220v or 110v to center [basically grd] for the 110v use. My machine came with a filter on the 110v ac for the controls, its on the receptacle on the

Re: CNC and Phase converter
I have several of the cheap, $100 to $200 Vevor/eBay VFDs in the shop, running up to a 10HP motor off 220 single phase. They all work OK. Worst issue so far was a loose connector in one of them. The

I, too, have a variable speed machine.? The original VFD was a TECO but it went bad and I purchased something else from FactoryMation.? My VFD is kept at 60 Hz and I use the variable speed crank to

Re: CNC and Phase converter
Thanks Dan Beeker, that is the kind of information I have been wondering about as I wait for my Bridgeport to get here.

Re: CNC and Phase converter
Set your vfd up to run your motor at whatever speed the motor is rated at. Run your mill at Hi speed. Switch to lo when you need lower speed and/or higher torque. You will find it easier to turn the

Any particular brand or model of? VFD? My machine is variable speed with Hi/Low so where would that be set if suing VFD? Thanks. Seb.

Re: CNC and Phase converter
Are you sure this is not simply a noise/spike problem on the supplies? From the voltages you mention I'm thinking you may be in North America? I am not very familiar with detail of quite how the

Re: CNC and Phase converter
Try a power line filter on your 110v feed to the CNC controller. I have a CNC bridgeport that has custom drives and I had similar issues in the past. [email protected]> wrote:

Re: CNC and Phase converter
I'm not certain on a VFD brand recommendation, I am trusting the machine supplier on that. I can respond better when I receive my machine and see the brand that they chose.

Re: CNC and Phase converter
Yes cnc but uses 110v single phase for controls and servo motors. Trac CNC 2, Southwestern Industries. What brand or model of VFD is recomended?

Re: CNC and Phase converter
I think this is a CNC machine. The electronics may want three phase, and they won't be happy with what a VFD puts out. My old BOSS 5 Bridgeport uses one phase for each of the X,Y,Z motor drives, and
