Can't get my spindle to run from MAch 3. My computer died and had to get a newer dell with USB port and a U100 cable. Spindle Hungyang VFD is tied to a CNC4pc C6 variable speed board. Everything now...
The computer I have had for 20 years died after years of service. The RAM melted down so forced to buy a new computer. I have been successful in downloading the Mach3 and setting up all ports and...
We have a issue with our Bridgeport Milling machine. Fitted with PROTO TRAX DRO system and receiving a E-Stop error. I think it could be a Limit on the X or Y axis servo motor. Not sure where to...
hey cncman,
Fixed it! Thanks for the help. I did not know CTL-ALT-J turns it back on. That trick is not in the Mach 3 Manual! I think i may have dropped a bit on the keyboard on a "F" key and...
cncman,
Not quite sure what you mean single step mode? could you please expand on how to check for this issue?

This is a weird one but for no reason today I have lost control of moving all axis using the arrow keys on the keyboard. The program will still run a file but if I hit the TAB key to bring up the...
Thanks for the help.
It worked!
Hello everyone,
Need some guidance please. I'm setting up a new Quincy air compressor QT-7.5HP. Please review the attached pictures from manual. It's all wired up to a new Huanyang GT 7.5KW and runs...
Success!
Not sure where Adoug is coming from but I have it running. Thanks, Jim for your valuable input. Set ramp-up time at 10 seconds, and pressure switch was a simple hookup after consulting the...
My son just purchased a used Champion Air compressor and wants to derate the motor and run with a VFD. It's a 10 HP Baldor and he needs to lower to a maximum of 40 amp load due to his current panel...
SOLVED!!!!!!! It was the SAFE "Z" settings. I never set them. Working great
Thanks for the help!!
I have NO idea? I did not realize there was a SAFE Z function in Config. Let me take a look and get back to you on that. Thank you for the direction. Sounds like this will solve my problem.

Sorry for lack of data. Running Mach 3 like the rest of the world. DIY unit but basically a copy of K2cnc unit.
Sometimes when I need to stop a cut file for some random reason I restart using the "Run from here function". When I hit "Cycle Start", the Z will travel all the way up and hit the upper limit...
I have been running Mach 3 for years and sometimes I need to stop during a cut process or may get a false Limit trip. So I will deal with my issue and use the "RUN FROM HERE" feature and away I go!...
That's great feedback on the Product. In your opinion how hard would it be to make one yourself. We do have CNC machines for heavens sake! Other than the 3" brush I have all the items laying around...
I just checked out Kentcnc and that's exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks for directing me!

So due to the efforts of everyone who put up with me questions my new spindle is running great and configured on Mach 3.Could not be happier! Mac you were very helpful and thanks!
So now I'm...
Hoping someone can help to ID this Breakout board. I bought it years ago from Keling but have lost the wiring of it. I'm in the process of wiring up my new 2.2kv spindle and purchased a cnc4pc C6...

Thank you for the quick reply!
I do believe RhinoCam has both options. I know for sure it has the M3 but will check on the S.

So after 6 years running my DIY Router I pulled the trigger and purchased a 2.2Kv spindle upgrade. Been very happy with it and been running from the VFD touchscreen. Decided to purchase a cnc4pc C6...
Rlarge,
That is strange but I'm sure the spindle is fine. The VFD is made to deal with the stall issue. You may want to go thru all your parameters settings again after you power cycle the VFD. Just...
After searching for a LARGE MIC connector all I can find is a 5 amp rated panel mount. Can someone guide me to a large 3/4" bore 9 amp rated MIC 4 pin connector suitable for the 2.2kv spindle??
...
Further update,
I removed the 4 pin MIC connector and hotwired the spindle today as a test and it worked fine. So Jazzz was right the connector failed. Strange it would fail so quickly. I'm guessing...
Further Update:Removed Spindle today and tore down to the point to ensure no water was leaking inside. All good. I left the Top Hat off and plugged in the cable and hit run. Saw arc flash inside at...
OK, Just checked cable at VFD. Same results. Appears cable is OK. Checked incoming power and showing 238 Volts. With cable disconnected at spindle and VFD Run on and showing 24K voltage at connector...
So After following all the advice here on this Forum I was successful in getting my Huanyang 2.2KV water cooled spindle up and running! No problems and been simply running from the VFD touch pad....
Thanks Andrew,
So I just checked with my son and you are correct, Bronze is what they are using. Not sure where brass came from? To be honest I'm new to all this and really on the outside looking...
Andrew,
Great explanation! After talking to my son the shop he is taking the class has a Induced fan hood for the dipping process and a Autoclave for burning out the Foam. Then the normal sand flask...
