Well I ended up getting a MSI GeForce gtx 960 2gb for right at $150 shipped which is about what I wanted to spend on one. hopefully it will be a decent card for what I do, I will know I'm a couple...
Thanks yeah I looked at those but were a little more than I wanted to spend but if it's worth it then what's another $100
Do u know exactly what model u have? I was looking at them and seems like...
Hey guys I'm looking at getting a new desktop to replace my outdated one and one thing I'm stuck on is graphics card. I was originally set on the AMD FirePro w4100 or Quadro k670 (I think that's the...
I was in the process of installing a coolant pump to a vmc15 that didn't come with a pump and before I plugged it into the outlet i wanted to check the voltage so I typed a m8 at the mdi prompt and...
Megacanam. Are u selecting preserve Rapids in the toolpaths and the post processor screen?
So I selected the smoothing option with a .002" tolerance just to see how it did and it made it well past the line it was getting the error on but about 3min later it errored again and this time it...
Yeah I've messed with the min radius setting in the post processor and it sometimes works and sometimes it just delays the inevitable to 100 lines down the program. Haven't really messed with the...
I just got a Fadal and use f360 and format 1 and have the same issues I have yet to figure it out. Seems like sometimes it outputs as true Rapids and sometimes as high feed regardless if preserve...
Does anyone know a source or someone that could possibly fabricate a vmc15 chip pan and partial enclosure similar to these photos-
I have scoured the inter web to no avail. The only thing I've...
It may be my only option to get it close. Tha manual says ideal voltage to the spindle is 220v but 190-240v is acceptable and to the amps and boards is 120v
I fired it up and I'm getting to the...
Any idea why the step transformer would be outputting one leg at 30v lower than the other 2
Pics of label inside cabinet
This is an excerpt from the Fadal manual regarding tapping the machine transformer
"Note: It is acceptable to have the legs tapped differently by one voltage tap position. There should be no...
I'll Check the output of the machine transformer. The machine transformer has taps for 340-510v with jumper settings for about 15 in between those. The spindle does run on 240v 3 phase and then it...
ok so we got everything wired in and ready but have a issue
We are feeding via a phase converter with output of 244,245,247v across legs but then it goes into a step transformer to convert to 480v ...
Here are some pics of how it came with the ground lead tied to the frame/enclosure
Not sure where to post this so its landing here
Just purchased a 480v vmc and my system will be as follows
240v single phase in to RPC
From RPC to 63 kva transformer
Transformer to vmc
My...
Also if it matters the 240/480 transformer is 63kva if that matters. I know it's a little overkill but it was local and cheap so I got it
In process of wiring in a Fadal vmc10/15 and I need to know the correct wire sizes I need for everything.
The setup will be incoming 220v single phase into a 25hp RPC which I need to feed with #2....
Yes the fadals use model number like t812, t813 etc. the sticker on the inside or rear cabinet that has the transformer wiring says 340-510vac 3 phase
Just got our vmc10 in the shop and ran into a major snag. It was supposed to be 220v 3 phase and when we go to wire it in noticed it has a t818e transformer is there anyway to make this transformer...
Also does this machine have a counter weight that I need to make sure they block up or insert a pin into for shipping?
Hey all I just purchased a vmc 10 and I noticed in the photo they sent when it was ready to ship that they had the z axis blocked with a 4x4 into a vise but it's about 12" off the table and I will...
Here is a pic of the motor and nameplate I would like to use. Is this one that will work
Just purchased a Fadal vmc10 and of course I have single phase power so looked into the single phase transformer deal but I just came across this 3 phase motor for cheap so now considering a rotary...
Ever get a solution to this? Just bought a vmc10 and would sure be nice to not have to buy a transformer or phase converter as I don't plan on using over 7-8 hp of the machine anyways
Can anyone tell me the height to top of a vmc10/15 with Z up all the way or I assume a 3016 would be the same. I'm trying to figure out if a vmc10 will fit in my garage. I know I've seen threads...
Also would a rotary indexer with separate control box be cheaper and easier to do
Thanks. Yeah I think I seen that one with the 4th already installed but it seems really cheap for what it is so kinda scares me. Another question i have do you know if it's possible to upgrade the...
Basically if I can find one that is fully 4th axis ready to plug in the rotary for say $15k then I would be better getting it than one that is only "pre-wired" or no wires for say $12k ??
