Go just set g54 ( x0 y0 z0) anywhere i want and go from there?

Quick question ger21 everytime i execute a gcode program do i have to Ref all home, then pick up my g54? It doesn’t matter where the tool is for g53 correct? As it will establish a x0 and y0 where it...

Ahh ok thank you again ger21!

Hi ger21 thanks for reply. Can you give me a brief explanation how it works without home switches? So what i understand i can pickup G54 anywhere?

Hi guys my first post so i hope i make sense. My Taig micromill is homing in wrong direction. It is homing toward top right, it should he lower left shouldn’t it? I do not have homing switches or...

Hi isces thank you for feedback,i replaced th internal 2A and External 3A fueses.i am using MPS2003 i also have Mach3 but i can not get the Controller driver to run smoothly with Mach3 it just sounds...

ok i checked the Logic boards and all components are good! So this tells me it is a power issue. I suspect X, Y axis are fighting for power, therefore causing to miss some steps. Does anyone know...

Ok i did a quick test, i Did a Rapid move on axis:
X, Z simotaneously this is ok
Y, Z simotaneously this is ok
Y, X simotaneously this is where i loose steps.

So this tells me it is not a power...

Thanks for feedback guys, hmmm it could be controller it is a 2003 model from Microproto. There is a big fat capacitor that carries 50volts, i am thinking capacitor might be culprit.yes awbry it only...

Hi guys i am here yet witg another problem. I have a Taig micromill with a 2000HD driver box and Nema steppers. Problem is when i do a Rapid G0 to home or to any location X, Y seem to bind or jam. I...

Sorry for pics not going threw, i can’t seem to make it upload. Any
How i measure the outter diameter of threads on spindle i mesaured out 3/4 (.750) is this accurate? The ER16 collet nut is M22x1.5...

I dont know why pics are not showing i have tried multiple time uploaing them. Anyhow I received the ER11 collet nut and guess what that didn't fit. So i tried tried researching ER collets and there...

ok i tried 1 more time uploading pics.

once again...

Pictures seems to work on my end, hmmm maybe give it some time to upload.

I moved over to Mach3 no need for MPS software, thanks

This has been repaired. It was a faulty MOSFET power transistors, in which caused the extreme heating. I also did research and configured Mach3 properly and now it works! Quick and fast repairing...

Sure here a some pics as you can see the ER16 collet nut does not fit the thread diameter. Also posted was the jacobs chuck, which fits good.

That is one sick micromill i would liketo know more about the conversion?!

Hi guys i bought a used Tag micromill and it has an ER11 collet threat at spindle nose. From what i researched they are suppose to have an ER16 collet thread, i want to convert the ER16 how do i go...

Hi guys i finally debugged the problem, i found 2 bad MOSFET transistors that were shorted. They were located on X and Y axis power outputs to stepper motors. It was a quick easy fix and cost under...

Last pic, the circuit boards look clean and not abused.

In the back of the driver box someone swapped X and Y axis erasing the original X and Y port letters and using a black marker to label X and Y ports around, hmmm why would someone swapp the ports...

Another pic. They are driver boards by Kurt

Here is a pic.

How or where do i look to determine what driver board i have john, upon opening the microproto 2000 box?

Hi john-100 thank you for your reply and feedback. I bought this machine from some fellow who could not get it to work because he did not have the software to get it to work. He said the person he...

Hi guys i previously posted on the forums about my issues setting up and getting to work my Taig Microproto 2000 micromill. I finally got it up and working, i am
Using the 2000 Driver Box with the...

Ok guys i got it working my 2000 driver box and stepper motors with the knobs i believe they are open loop nema23. Now everything seems to work but now another issue, the Y axis stepper is getting...

Hi ican i am in need of Mps2000 v2.2 would you happen to have it? Thank you kindly happy holidays
