Hello,

I am having one hell of a time trying to generate a sloped 1/16" slot. I need to use a 1/16" ballnose cutter with a 5/8" flute length for the full slot width. The toolpath strategy that I...

Hello,

I have been on and off building my CNC enclosure for my A2Z cnc/sherline mill for quite awhile now. It has actually been kind of a slow project because of time devoted to other projects and...

YESSSSSSS! Finally its now working. That was the problem. I was not aware of the CMC color wire coding, perhaps if I had a wiring diagram I would have figured it out sooner. I am now using the new...

I measured with an ohmmeter the Pos and Neg armatures and it came out to be 1.8 ohms. The brushes look okay to me. I decided to try something, the way I have been hooking up the motor is based...

I'll remove the brushes on the armatures and check them tomorrow. I have nothing hooked up to the tach output. Just the red and black armature leads from the motor to the driver. Before I removed the...

I just directly connected a motor to a bench top supply. At 10 volts, nothing, at 24 volts it was rotating maybe 50 RPM. Would this mean all the motors I have are bad? I find that very hard to...

I'm really starting to give up on these old motors....

I have tried 3 of the 4 servos that I have, all are the same model number. I attached one of two encoders that I have on each motor and then attached them one at a time on the ball screw and fiddled...

Thank you.
Yes the motor does bounce back, but sometimes oscillates back and forth. I think that is called dithering, and I think I just need to refine the tuning on the drivers. I don't have a...

These have tach brushes as well, and they were wired to the motor on the old system. However I was told that I could remove those for the G320X. I'm using a 500 line rotary encoder on the end of the...

Any help on this problem would be very appreciated.

Since I've last posted, I finished the electronics for this project and powered up everything. However I've been having issues. I have the US digital E5 encoders with the the differential line driver...

I knew these were quadrature, but how would I go about doing that? I don't have access to an oscilloscope to look at the signals. Some sort of TTL converter to convert the sin/cos signals to TTL? Any...

Yeah I'm going to keep the helical coupler that it had, it was a very high precision CNC laser cutting station at one time and will be, no reason to change it. Just to share an update and request for...

Okay thank you. I'd be interested in any other data sheets or info that you have if you don't mind. So the G320X sounds like it will work then for this motor? (...

Hi,

I am modernizing an old Anorad XY servo positioning stage for a laser trimming system. The electronics control station is very primitive and late 70s or 80's technology. I worked on trying to...

Thank you B-rad. I know, I was waiting for awhile on the 4042D's I figured on waiting until they were in stock again, I didnt feel like paying more for the 5056D's. :) So the 9.7 Amp's would be...

Hello,

I have been putting together an A2Z/Sherline CNC machine, I'm almost complete with it, I just need to purchase the four stepper motors, four 36 volt drivers, and a 36 volt power supply. I'm...
