Re: Spindle speed - more data
Bernard: Can you explain this a bit better, Mill seems to be working properly according to reports. Is is possible that your pulse width is too low for the circuit? Steve reports proper operation in

Re: Question for Steve
Didn't run it as such, I manually set speed on mill VFD with a pot. I just disconnected 10V & 0V wires to VFD and checked voltage, but I will try it tommorrow. I also have another fault, which is

Re: Question for Steve
Steve: Definitely noise on the step pin. When you jog, the DIR pin gets set and dosent change until you change diretcion, thats why it creeps in the last direction. Art www.artofcnc.ca

Home Switch Question
I was wondering if the possibility is available to separate the limit switches and the home switch. I seriously believe that there is a serious safety concern when the limit/home function is the

Spindle - update & query
Art, I'm gradually trying to sort things out here. When I first noticed problems I was running the kernel @35Khz, I then switched to 25Khz and got the figures I gave you. I have now re-started M2

Re: Spindle - update & query
Bernard: Yes, it is necessary to restart after changing frequencies. This is necessary to restart the engine timer. Also, if you tune the spindle in 35 Khz and then switch to 25Khz, you have to

Re: Home Switch Question
I have found the same quandry myself. I my experience, the limit switches should be there to prevent damage to the machine, and in effect initiate an E-Stop condition. It realy dosen't matter which

Hi Tom,i was wondering if i could ask you some questions on the THC setup,i have decided to modify my machine and add a z-axis,can you help me on how the z axis is driven and how much travel should

Combining Spindle and A-axis
Hi Art, Is it possible to combine the spindle step/dir axis with the rotary A-axis? The reason is that I'm thinking of using a servo motor as the spindle drive, but occasionally use it as an axis

Frequency to Voltage - Warning
Hi All, A warning to anyone using a LM2907/2917 Frequency to Voltage converter for spindle control. The chip data sheet does not specify an upper frequency limit, I have found that it is very non

Re: Tom C.could I ask some questions please
