The voltage to turn the relay on will be 12 volt dc (max 50mA).
The load I'm trying to turn on is 120ac for a small coolant pump.

I was today years old when I learned about SSR's. Took about 5 minutes of looking and found this one here -...
I'm almost finished with my retrofit but have hit a snag.
I have the DMM DMB4250-8B breakout board (https://www.dmm-tech.com/DMB4250-8B_main.html)
According to the manual it says D16 and D17...
HAHA! Now I see it. I'm a dummy.
Thanks!!
I'm retrofitting a machine using 86M DHT motors, DYN4 drives and a DMB4250 breakout board. I have a question about the board. According to one video (see below at the 1:47 mark) it says the board...
I have a spindle motor with the following motor tag. I'll be using the rating in the box - 230v @ 50 hz.

The diagram from the cover showing how to jump the leads; seems simple...
Little more done.
I tried to re-use the motor mount for the X axis carrier but messed it up so I made another one. While I had it off I disassembled the spindle of the nut drive and...
Yes, 80cm x 120cm. It looks like I can squeeze maybe 2 more inches out of the Y travel getting me closer to 3'; Havn't checked the X yet.
An Alfa in the driveway would be NICE!! Classic though,...
Little more progress. I soaked some blue shop towels in evaporust and draped them over the rails for a few hours. Took them off and then went to town with WD-40 and a green scotch brite. There...
Couple pics from today.

I picked up a 20± year old Cielle Alfa 80 x 120 router and plan to do an electronics retrofit / upgrade on it. Still working out the details but I know it definitely needs an x-axis leadscrew. Even...
Thanks; found a 3hp Teco I think is gonna be the winner :)
Well,... I was today years old when I found out kw could be converted to hp. :D
Thanks a bunch!!!
I have a Cielle CNC router that I'm retrofitting and need to figure out what VFD I need to run the spindle but the motor tag does not appear to have a HP rating on it. It is Italian though so I...
Got a little more done in both cabinets. Still need to do some wire management but lights are coming on and flashy things are flashing!

Little more progress yesterday.
Drives mounted
Monitor mounted to faceplate and then mounted to the box
Made a small bracket to hold the computer and USB ports - trying not to penetrate the...
I got the computer mount moved back to give me a little more room to move around.
The box is cleaned out.
New face plate made and mounted. There will be another over this one for the monitor. I...
I recently picked up a Hardinge AHC that's been fitted with an Accuslide. The parameters were lost when the batteries died, the spindle encoder is bad and the VFD is DOA. Good candidate for a...
That's exactly why I posted the question here; practical experience Initially I thought it was the z axis brake but that would not have caused it to not lift when it was supposed to. Then I started...
Tormach 1100 series 3 - bought around 1/15
Today, while cutting a pocket the z axis decides to plunge about 1/2" unexpectedly. Thought it was a fluke so I loaded another blank. Did it again...
Thanks to both for the responses. A suggestion for possible replacement motors was going to be a followup question should I not be able to work these motors out. I was trying to go as inexpensive...
I've just picked up a Hardinge with an Accuslide on it with Fagor controls. Plan to to an upgrade possibly with Centroid Acorn at the heart. Going through the hardware I can't find the specs for...
Even a little progress is still progress right?
PMDX and Geckos mounted.

I got my 107 last week and started hooking it up this morning. I'm to section 2, #6 - "apply power". Since I'm wiring my first VFD here I thought I'd get a double check before I crank on the juice....
NIce! There's a few more on here that I've seen on the past. Good to get some time in each day. Makes you feel like you're getting somewhere.
I'm starting on the control cabinet.
Before...
I picked up this mill several years ago and documented my challenges on another forum. No need to re-hash that here but I'll answer any questions. Long story short there was some trial to get it...
Can't argue with that! :cheers:
It drives me crazy. Well, crazier I guess.

Thank you much. Hope I get some use out of it.
Some test cuts.

The accuracy is a little off but that may be due to some adjustments needing to be made in the software and the need to tighten up some parts. The linear bearings were...
Not many more pictures to show as the machine still looks mostly the same since the last update but here's a video of the wiring process and some testing.
