You want to look at the "HOME_SEQUENCE" as linked in the post before this one.

Look at the INI file you are using and you will see the "HOME_SEQUENCE" line in each [AXIS_<number of axis here>]...

Look up the user here called "Hood". I don't know how close he is to you, or if he is interested, but he's in Scotland and meets all your requirements. Definitely a Mach 3 power user with hands on...

Here is how my system is set up. AIR COMPRESSOR > CHECK VALVE ON AIR TANK ON MACHINE > AIR TANK ON MACHINE > PRESSURE REGULATOR > AIR CYLINDER. Like I said, the other side of the air cylinder has a...

I did this on my gantry router 4 years ago. Works perfect. Pressurize one side of the air cylinder. Put a breather or regulator on the other port of the cylinder. Put a regulator on the air supply to...

Have a look at Romaxxcncrouters.com

Made in Detroit. I've had two of them since 2007.

Don't forget to consider the cost of how you're going to convert Cad to gcode.

Mailing lists... why not telegraphs or smoke signals? Better with dialup I suppose. *roll eyes*

I sent you a PM.

Its plumbed like this: Input>check valve>tank>filter>regulator >cylinder.

The onboard tank was used so that I do not have to have the air from the compressor hooked up if it becomes unavailable. ...

Duplicate post.

I have had an air assist cylinder on my machine for a few years now on my retrofitted Masterwood Speedy 207. It works perfectly. I have an air tank under the machine with an adjustable pressure...

FYI - Mach .058 has fewer issues than .066 .

I had a gecko do this. turned out the resistor was not in the terminal properly and the drive saw it as wide open (max power) . Try switching drives but not plastic terminals to eliminate that...

I know early on Mach 4 was planning on moving to Lua for scripts (dumping Cypress VB). Is that still true?

It could be anything giving you problems... cut2d or mach or...

Give yourself any easy thing to test. Draw a simple square in cut2d (use easy numbers like 100mm or something), post it to gcode...

That right there says "post processor" issues to me. Look at what your post is actually spitting out.

ROFL! Thats a great way to put it.

I've had mine since last summer and am only now looking at the cable situation, so I don't have any info to give.

So you replaced the springs and shock and...

Did you ever get this figured out? I have a doall c4 that needs a new release cable.

Ok, so I went a had a better look at the power supply and it is actually 70V. The label was partially obscured when I first posted, so I had a real good look after the comment by Mariss and sure...

From the G320 manual:

"If the lead length is more than 18” use a 1000 uF capacitor across the G320 power supply terminals."

Sorry, I am am uneducated in this electronics stuff. My leads are...

OK, thanks all. I have lots to go on here, so I will use it and get to work.

Thanks for the reply. Please describe exactly where braided wire should be used. Do you mean in the shield (I am using belkin 8732 shielded twisted pair), or in the cabinet? And if in the cabinet,...

Can the ground wire that runs inside shielding be connected to the cabinet right where it exits the shielding or does it need to all be run to a common star ground? By cabinet, i mean the cabinet...

Thank you. That brings up another question for my curiosity. What is the torque of these motors in comparison to a modern servo, such as a Keling? I mean like how many oz-in?

Thanks again. :-)

Have some servos (on a machine) that read as such (see pic for full data):

stall torque: 1.6nm
rated speed: 3000 rpm
kt: 0.16 nm/a
bemf: 16.5 v/krpm
rated curr: 10A

So will G320's fit the...

Finally got a few minutes to get mine done (from scratch).

I wouldn't bother with that book. I have it. It had it's place... in 1991, before the internet and forums like this.
