  1. Re: Want to control your spindle with Mach3 but can't.. Maybe this helps.

    Do those work on 110V or just 220V?
  2. Re: Is Automation Technologies still the go-to source?

    The 570 ozin nema 23 drops to ~100 ozin at 550 rpm which is about 110 ipm with 5 mm ball screw. In contrast the 640 ozin nema 34 (KL34H280-55-4AT) has ~250 ozin at 550 rpm. More than double the...

    Thats ok. With 5mm pitch ball screws the 570's loose a lot of torque at about 100ipm. This may limit your rapid speeds. Its why I changed from the 570's to the 640's.
  4. Re: Is Automation Technologies still the go-to source?

    The 640ozin Nema 34's are a pretty good combo on the g0704, way better than the 570 nema 23.

    Im just trying to figure out how this stuff works. Maybe I'm asking the wrong questions? Will it trip even if I limit the output current? How does the current limit work in the vfd? Does it just...

    Re: 220V spindle on 110V?

    Thanks for your help, I'm still not clear on things.

    What do you mean by not great performers or dismal?

    I really don't care about the 2.2kW rating, I'm not going anywhere near there. It's...

    That's interesting, this is all a learning experience for me. Searching myself its hard to find info.

    On the other hand I found 110V 2.2kW spindle / vfd set on amazon, also 0.8kW and 1.5kW with...

    Re: 220V spindle on 110V?

    Hmm. It makes sense that you cant get more output than input, were talking about power right?

    I guess I was assuming a 1500W 220V motor should be about 7 amps on the output. I figure this means...

    Re: 220V spindle on 110V?

    Thanks for the reply! Is that 30-50% output power drop at the same input power? If I had 120V 12.5A (1.5kW) it would still loose 30-50% output power? Is this due to vfd efficiency?

    220V spindle on 110V?

    Hi all I know this has been asked before, but I cant seem to find the information I'm looking for. I'm interested in getting a spindle with er16 for a benchtop mill (similar to a router in style) but...

    So I was able to use a interesting pair of vise grips to grab onto the spindle and torque the drawbar. Sure enough I ran into some bad programming where there was severe chatter and stalling of the...

    That's a proper CNC machine. Quite bigger than a benchtop machine eh?

    Re: iso20 vs TTS

    I just recently found a lot of joy in not using the TTS tool holders on my G0704. I would choose ISO20 over TTS. TTS is really sensitive to chatter so if your machine isn't rigid enough or your...

    Very Cool. I don't have audio so I can't tell if your saying anything or not. Will it be spring loaded to the open position?

    You got that for about the same price as the 0704? What a deal! I think this looks similar to the RF 45 mill so that may be a good starting place. If there aren't already kits you can make your own....

    Re: RS4Race's G0704 Basic CNC Build

    Ok. So I think I have found my motor upgrade. I'm looking at a 71C 3ph AC motor 1hp. The 1hp is continuous, and by my calculations it should have 2.1 Peak HP.

    I based this off of the following:...

    Re: G0704 BT30 Milling head !

    Air cylinder to actuate the hydraulic master cylinder. A 2" diameter air cylinder will produce 300lbs of force on 100psi. Go thru a lever or get a cylinder big enough to go straight to the MC.

    It makes sense that the larger radius would demand more power and rigidity from your machine. You could calculate the HP requirement and cutting forces. There's going to be some point where you don't...
