Well, guess I'm still looking if anyone has one.

Dang just saw this. I want it if it has everything needed to run it like this other guy who is sliding into my thread is asking. PM Sent, lets get it done!

I'm looking to add the tailstock to my slant pro 15L. Tormach has recently discontinued it. Does anyone have one that they want to sell?

If anyone has any VSD-E drives they'd be willing to sell, I'd like to buy them.

Looking for Granite Devices VSD-E drives (now obsolete) that anyone might still have and aren't or haven't used.

Is there any information on the ATC for the torus pro (videos, reviews, etc)? All I can find is the one page bit on the novakon site. I was about to pull the trigger on a tormach in spite of the...

In the picture, the automatic tool changer (ATC) is not mounted. Why not? Is it just in a box somewhere?

Yeah, I was imagining a router setup where the platform is the z-axis, or even a short z with a way to set / move the platform, or even a platform with a hole in it that some sort of fixture could be...

Boxes are about 50-75 / month, with accompanying panels that go inside. Everything else is about 5-10 pcs/month (usage), about 10 unique pieces off the top of my head that are normal usage. Several...

Wizard,
I just read through most of that, and I think you missed the part about the enclosures being plastic. The holes include large LCD cutouts, and some slight counterbores on some of the...

Two machines under $15k seems a bit ambitious, and what I imagine would be a pile of support stuff (tooling, pc, etc). It looks as if the torus pro could handle about 60-70% of what we need (some of...

I'm looking at possible designs, and reading about structures and that "loop" through the structure. It seems to me that since the larger stuff is plastic, and the flatter / smaller stuff is where...

Lee,
Thanks for reading and replying. I'm interested in how I would be able to get to the "bottom" face of the box of the box with that mill. If i stand one on it's top it would be 24" tall. ...

I've been searching and hoping to find something that met my requirements that would fit in my limited garage space, but have been unable thus far. I need a milling machine for a couple of very...

I did these things, and in torque mode, the motor now easily lifts the load, but when put in velocity or position mode, it still stops after about a couple of seconds. I looked at the graph and the...

I tuned in position mode and hooked everything up to the load, and it doesn't move. So i changed to velocity mode, same thing.

The odd thing is, if it's in torque mode, it will move for 2-3...

Torque and voltage plot were done in torque mode, the one with following error is done in velocity mode.

So, from your last post, I think that you are saying that there is nothing that can be done...

ok,
I ran the motor test, both on ac and bldc, and both ways it tells me it found 2170 which is correct for a 4 pole motor. I then ran the moveabs command with both 4 pole and 6 pole setting. ...

I did run test motor configuration, and if i remember correctly, it said that the encoder counts were correct for a 4 pole motor, however, the motor I have says 3 pole pairs, which lead me to choose...

attached are a couple of plots.
one is with the torques, and you cannot see the velocity (scaling), so the other shows just the velocity.

From what i can tell, i am achieving the torque...

I do not get overcurrent faults.
I don't get faults.

The max limit i believe is 10A (10000mA). I can lower the peak, but I never see the overcurrent fault.

I will try to re-run with the...

Attached is the settings file. This is what is used to create the graph I posted. It doesn't cause any errors / faults. And if the drive doesn't get disabled and re-enabled, it will run in the...

Ok, I had the cable plugged in when trying the disable function, without it, disable works just fine.

I have one more question. When trying to tune the axis, with the following error limit set...

This is a cross post, as is also posted in router section, anyone who can please remove it from that section, as this one is more appropriate.

I have the vsd-e drives from granite devices. I have...

I have the vsd-e drives from granite devices. I have the motors moving fine, but have some issues with the other functions.

I want to set up Opto-in 4 for disable / clear fault, but i cannot make...

All of it except the pipe clamp part, as this thing is welded, there is no way a pipe clamp is going to move it, bend it, or otherwise squeeze it. How Equal are we talking here, within 1/8? 1/16?......

Sold!!!



I have a machinists level, and I believe the top of the table is fairly flat, but it's just the frame, I was hoping to do some shimming for the rails, however, they are very far apart,...

I scavanged them from an old machine (robotic assembly machine), it was one plate (1/2"), then painfully cut with a recip, bolted them together and finished on the manual mill. the bottoms and back...

I have a single indexable insert face milling tool, a older style, I run it at 150 on my mill, I take it you have not used the same style tool, and the speed seems off? No matter, I would like an...

Oh, and I want to be able to get down to around 150-200rpm for face milling aluminum / steel, but i am not sure how to do this on the cheap, I am not extremely interested in the 10krpm spindles for...
