Senior moment...I had been using Keling 4052 drivers on my 4 axis machine when I had a short and fried two of the drives. I accidentally bought (2) 4030s for replacement. If I use the 4030s on my y...
Was tuning motors "A" slaved to "X" and the gantry stalled on one side ("A" side kept moving) I restarted and all started moving again all of a sudden I noticed a small bit of smoke from the power...
I also have an issue with A K2 machine and have been trying to call for several weeks with no answer. Checked this am to and site is down.
Duh, Got it, don't know how I missed it, hiding in plain sight
Thanks Al
Where is the voltage setting switch?
Bought a Keling 4 axis kit...got it all wired up and no power from the KL-350-48. Power from the plug (all three wires are attached to power supply) is good but nothing form the V+,V- terminals....
It has powered up twice and blown electronic parts both times. We have replaced several electronic parts of the controller by K2's instruction. The last time, the gantry moved from one end to the...
We purchased a 5' x 10' router last Dec. I was told we would receive it 30 days later...we got it four months later and it has yet to work. I have placed numerous phone calls and get either no...
I have a xylotex box and motors and am planning to upgrade to a gecko 540. Can I use the 425 oz motors with the gecko?
From what I understand, cutting vinyl with a laser releases very harmful fumes. A dedicated vinyl cutter would ba a much cheaper and safer solution.

I built a Solsylva 25" x 25" two years ago and it has been great but I am looking to go a bit larger/ more accurate and am wondering if a Joe's 2006 would be a good upgrade. I would be using the...
Salvaged the screws from a 408 Gerber Shop Sabre being refurbished. Anyone know the specs for these?
Thanks,

Was just there and it is online
You could draw them on the same sheet, assign depths of cut, then copy and nest the same thickness pieces on separate sheets.

Its "Greek", text used as a placeholder. The About Us apparently has never been set up.
What materials would need variable speed with a 1.25 hp router? Just curious.
I think it's the same thing as the Porter Cable 450. The Porter Cable is usually costs a little bit less.

Thanks Gerry. Debounce at 3000 did the trick.

I have limit/home switches in series NC. Home switches for X-, Y-, Z+ are shared with limits. If I reference all I can't move off after hitting limits. I did turn on Auto limit overide in the...
Thanks for the reply. It really is an excellent screen and set of new tools making my machine a more consistent and accurate setting z.

Gerry,
That did the trick. Thanks very much!

Thanks for the reply. It would be nice if after loading a tool and zeroing it would stop so you could then hit cycle start. As it is, i have to rush to grab the alligator clip off and start the...
I am so close! All goes well until I use second button to zero tool. Tool moves to fixed touch plate and touches off and moves to zero and does not wait for cycle start, router pauses and then goes...
The only M6 command is the one at the beginning and yes I am selecting multiple tool paths. With Mach inch it gives a warning with multiple tool paths but I ignore it and write code anyway and with...
I am a bit confused as to the tool setter procedure. I load my G code, initial zero (zero's both fixed and mobile touch plates), and hit cycle start. Almost immediately I am asked for a tool change....
I recently made some purchases from John. I live near his office and stopped by to pick up the order. He was friendly and showed me his warehouse. He had everything I needed and pricing was great. I...
How 'bout using a biscuit jointer on the edge of workpiece and using z clips (like for holding a table top on) inserted in the slot and screw the clip the table.
I think I will try both the capacitor and the pull up on the board (whichever works first wins). I think I also will upgrade the cabling to shielded as well. Thanks for the help.
Update: Capacitor...
Sorry, just the z is moving. It comes down 1/4 inch, then jogs up
