Unfortunately no. I made myself an auxiliary spindle mount and have just been running it with that. Which for what I do with the machine in fine for now.... I have just been so busy with the other...
I didn't order the router, I didn't spec it out or get to see it run ever. The company that I bought it from hadn't ever seen it run either. It was a new router table that they had imported for...
I have no doubt that I could get this unit working properly, up to 12k rpm. My real problem is time. I just don't have much. I have my own business and it is just the wife and I at the moment. So, we...
I will have to pull the cover off the Z axis of the router and see if there is a secondary regulator. I don't think there is one. I am also seeing that if I am to continue trying to get the new VFD...
When I get back over to the shop tonight I will bring a camera along. Not all the ports on the top of the spindle are filled with hoses. There are two that have nothing in them. I will also check the...
So, we are getting closer. I set everything as stated above. It ran for a bit. I also set the slope with a max of 253v 400Hz.
Then I changed the motor current to 10 amps. It ran for about ten...
I hope that your right. I will give it a shot in the morning.
So I will set the KW to 3.6, Amps to 12, Volts to 253 and frequency max to 400. I want to say that I have already tried that... but...
yes, WEIHONG NK260. From the little playing with it that I did. It seemed to work fine and wasn't too difficult to understand.
The freq drive on my bridgeport was only a 1.5kw unit. I still tried it... but it only ran for a half a second. Though, I didn't really spend any time programming it. I only changed the frequency up...
Here is the link to the youtube video with the 220/380 vfd

The spindle is a 120td18z5.5av
They do make it as a 220vac spindle. Though, I am trying to find...
Just before christmas I ended up buying a big CNC router. It is a nice unit, vacuum table, ATC, NK260 controller. It seemed like a good deal the only catch.... 380vac spindle. I figured. Hey, the...
thanks for the help. The look ahead was set at 50. So you are probably correct about the servo tuning. I will head back to the shop and see if I can get that to make a difference
I just got a similar machine, with the nk260 control. The movement is quite jerky, I am assuming that the look ahead setting is set to the default of 0, and want to change it to see if it helps. Is...
So, I got a new machine. It has the nk260 controller, read through the manual, started playing with it a little the past couple of days. Noticed it was making very jerky cuts, kind of reminded me of...
Double check the door switch, if your machine has one. I had similar issues with my 40w laser and door switch was the culprit.
Thats awesome. I was just at IMTS checking them out. When does yours arrive?
I have been looking to get a fiber laser cutter, talked with a few places that claim to sell them... however, they actually only seem to mark up the price and import them from china once you have...
A friend and I are looking to put together a new machine for his shop. He is currently using an older C&G with a burny controller. It is getting to a point where it is getting a little tired...
I was at a customers house yesterday and the guy had some hand rails that were finished with something that was awesome. He said that the guy who made the hand rails wouldn't tell him what he used...
here are the links to those videos I posted last night. I did some more tracing of templates last night, a little more this morning and I have to say that is the best add on yet. It was a bit of a...
I should have taken the pictures first... but I instead did the videos and I ran out of space on my memory card after a few minutes... so I uploaded a few couple more videos. You can easily find them...
I am running an ESAB ESP-50 with a PT-37 Torch. The ESP 50 comes with a PT35 torch, but that torch doesn't have a shielded nozzle. I would occasionally have problems when I first started using it...
Yeah! the table is done and working! It's actually been done for about a month... but I didn't take any video until tonight.

Hitachibos,
I had already thought of that, however, I didn't detect any issues there. I had thought for sure that there would have been at least a slight change when tightening and loosening the...
I have had this Bridgeport Boss machine for a few years now and have had constant issues keeping the head trammed. It seems to nod quite easily. I have never tried to tighten the three bolts that...
On my plasma table, I am using an air cylinder to push the the gear into the rack, and using an adjustable stop to keep it from trying to push the gear into the rack too hard. I was noticing on my...
well, I still haven't had a chance to get much done on the new machine. Every time I schedule time for it, I end up with some rush jobs to get done. Never fails. I am going to shoot for getting the...
I should have some updates very soon. I sold the big table about two weeks ago which has forced me to get back to work on the new one. The base is pretty much done. I am going to be painting the...
