  1. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Hi sorry for the delay I work around NZ with the end of day sorting out paperwork. The neonatal intensive care unit in Hamilton is getting an expensive birthday so I am running that.

    That would be...
  2. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Wow a new level of desperation huh? Penis enlargment pills? I guess that takes that particular loser to a new low.
  3. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    I appreciate your help I know it takes time to do that. Its been a ride and yes correct I am stoked to have something I can focus on now as it was invisible to me preciously. Out of interest I...
  4. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Gee. I have 16 parts to manufacture and almost, almost shelved the Delta and put a Nema on to get them done. Thanks for the words Craig.

    Ok. I put some proper troubleshooting into the system last...
  5. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Yep 5 hours on it today. Unuseable even at 0.5rpm it lost a deg on 3 rotations. Im pulling it off and installing a Nema 34 which I know will be accurate. A shame really I thought I was stepping up...
  6. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Thanks. Ok. Its def a 60/1 ratio. I have set my steps at 690 velocity 6000, acceleration a modest 600, with my gear ratio 16000/414 and as previously it is appearing nice and accurate to visual...
  7. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    (smile) - you read my mind. Commercially made TB170 4th Axis with that in the specs. I am going to double check that today.....
  8. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Hi Craig. Sorry, its not me confusing the numbers I totally understood them, I was keen to hear Kokufms results though because all my calcs were the same as yours and one thing I know is to hear...
  9. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    That a fact? Would you care to share your findings? I have been playing around with a lot of setting options all the way through the resolution range and have had the same results. The 4th Axis will...
  10. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Gee I thought I was being cautious like I am not really a speed king.

    My motor settings in Mach if we go left to right to save the typing are 666.666667 8000 140 and if I run it through a bunch...
  11. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Hi Craig thanks for that. Your explanation was exactly what I thought it was or close anyways. Ok I will take another look tonight and have a bit of a play. It was fantastic when it was accurate. All...
  12. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Cool! I am guessing you are electronically trained? Absolutely no way I would remember what I have built. Relay on relay on connections.... I need to draw it all up prior because of my shocking...
  13. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Hi Craig,

    Last week I responded with a lengthy reply to see it disappear off my screen this morning. Must have missed the "reply" button. Well in a nutshell its all working and many thanks for the...
  14. Re: Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Hi Craig. Awesome. TBH it was you who recommended this system to me and its fantastic. Many thanks for the response I managed to sort it all out. I was a little too rapid to run past the input wiring...
  15. Delta ASD B2 1521 is there a pulse input enable setting?

    Ive wired my one up to the letter as per manual. Went through all the jog startup stuff no problem.

    Gear ratio is set. Currently have it SIG/PUL through a couple of 2222 transistors and they are...
  16. Re: Need a bit od help to polish my macro please.

    Ok well I sorted it anyway. Not sure why it wouldn't work, and now it does. Code below for anyone although I am pretty new to this so whilst it might work for me, it might not for someone else. Also...
  17. Need a bit od help to polish my macro please.

    Totally new to me anything in a macro thats more than just a few commands. Ive managed to get this one together but it will be full of mistakes. I have been on this for a while now and its time to...
  18. Re: Does anyone have a successful probing setup with the ESS and Mach 4?

    Ok this had made me think a bit - good robust conversation. So on my own machine that check box is unchecked. And I beleive I did that so I could probe the top/corner operation successfully. I was...
  19. Re: Does anyone have a successful probing setup with the ESS and Mach 4?

    Hi Craig,

    Care to share how you have wired it in? Or what you may have done differently? Ive got mine going straight into one of the five 817 Optocoupler inouts into a standard Chinese BOB. The...
  20. Does anyone have a successful probing setup with the ESS and Mach 4?

    I dont have much success, and after spending years on the build of my own machine, upgrade after upgrade. Going from Mach 3 to the ESS Mach 4 has been a downgrade in the probing routine. Ive posted...

    Re: Selecting the correct threading end mill

    Hi. Sorry yes, a single tooth which is why I couldnt understand why they advertise the range like that. I would be tempted to use an M10 single tooth milling bit over the M18 single tooth, twice the...

    Selecting the correct threading end mill

    On my lathe I have one insert for a 60deg thread, or 55deg, and external/internal. So 4 inserts have covered me for all. These are ok to use no matter what thread and what pitch is required.

    I am...

    Putting a Delta Servo on my 4th Axis

    Using Delta because I have read nothing bad about them at all. My 4th Axis is a 1/60 ratio and needs a bit of torque to run it as well. So a 1.5kw motor @ 3000RPM is what I have been offered. I am...

    Re: Spindle Index Noise

    Im not sure where to continue to be honest. I have done a bit of work around this and with my basic meter have zero to 8.4v on the on/off input to the BOB, I even thought about installing a second...

    Spindle Index Noise

    Wondering how I remove it? Standard cheapo Chinese BOB with the 12v opto inputs there are about 5 inputs. Ive wired up a photo sensor to the 12vdc and the output directly into the BOB input. The...
  26. Just another Turret - or perhaps different.

    Not sure. Never installed one. This is what I think will work. I bought a LD4B turret. Chinese one so not expensive. Its on the boat now and about 6 weeks away. I was quite keen to have a wiring...

    Re: Nema 24 Closed Loop anyone have one?

    Thanks for the lesson. I had a wee crack with a single cell and once I got 3v with a couple of them I saw the jump. Out of all faults with these steppers, especially the closed loop models with 6...

    Re: Nema 24 Closed Loop anyone have one?

    Hi. Thanks for jumping in. Almost 20yrs working with steppers I have never had to go further than locate the data sheet. So a 1.5v cell will rotate my shaft. Didn't know that. For full clarity and...

    Nema 24 Closed Loop anyone have one?

    Hi people. Anyone have the wiring datasheet for a Nema 24 p/n 24E1K-30 before the Chinese thought it would be a good idea to send them out with cheap plugs on them and no color coding? Im having a...
