    New 2013 Syil X4 Mill

    For Sale

    How is a 2013 mill new??? This machine has never made a single chip

    I bought this mill in 2014 from a guy who had never run it. It was obvious. It had been unpacked and sitting in his...
  2. Re: Can't get Mach 3 to Spindle Control (DMM DYN4) communication

    Thank you Mactec54. Forgive me if I am not asking the right question, but is this the difference between avi and pwm? Syil told me the board handles both and jumper #5 is the difference between:...
  3. Re: Can't get Mach 3 to Spindle Control (DMM DYN4) communication

    I have measured voltage between the P/A and Ground pins as Stephen (from DMM) requested. I got the following voltages:



    M03 clockwise 4.40
    M04 counter clock .681
    M05 stop spindle .681

    Ironically I am just fixing it to sell it. Imagine that! I bought it 6 years ago brand new, it has never made a chip, and I spent another $800 in spindle stuff, just to sell it. Lol. Easy come easy...

    I have a Syil X4. It is a 2013 model and has never made a single chip! The spindle control has been blown out since it was new. When I finally got around to fixing it, Syil didn't sell...

    Hey All,

    I am looking for a g-code simulation software program for the lathe, preferably free. I would imagine there must be tons of super simple programs out there to this end, but if there are,...

    Bob, You'd know better than I would! No luck whatsoever with Syil still.

  17. Has anyone here replaced their Syil spindle controller and/or drive motor?

    Hey All,

    I have another thread down there where I was trying to sort this blown spindle controller card. I have given up on hearing back from Syil or fixing the card.

    I'd like to replace the...
  18. Re: Spindle Control is Dead, Looking for Help on Replacement

    Thank you. When you say "these have always had problems" do you mean the Syil spindle controller or DC control altogether?

    Re: Syil X4 with blown spindle controller

    I don't know. Is that the power supply for the unit? I had always thought the power supply would look like the one in a PC or something. If it is, that would explain why I don't see what looks like a...

    That is interesting info. Thank you. I wonder if I can actually order 1 set or if the shipping would be prohibitive.

    Jeff, the output on the drive does indeed have U V and W terminals. Also PE N and L. I'll pull the covers later on to try and get the spindle motor information. Thank you!

    I just noticed that unit is a 3 phase output too. It doesn't seem like that would work with a 110v single phase machine. Am I wrong here?

    Jeff,

    That is a very affordable unit too, which is nice. My mill is currently a 110V machine. Does that mean my spindle motor will only run on 110?

    I'd rather have a 220v machine anyhow. It...
