Oops…sorry. I'll try that forum.
Hi, everyone,
I hope I'm in the right forum.
I've already built a CNC machine, which works amazingly, so now it's time to move to the next level, a plasma CNC machine. I have a Hobart 500534R...

Hello everyone,
I've been using a Hobbycnc EZ board with no problems for quite sometime. It's very easy to setup and works really well.
A couple of days ago I started having problems with the...
We got Lift off! I finally got it to work. Jumping FOR and DCM allows me to control speed using the +10V analog input from the C11 card. Thank you very much.
Thank you P38nut for the schematic. I have the vfd manual and I am familiar with that schematic. My +10v is connected to the VI terminal and the negative to the ACM. As per Bill's previous message,...
I think that this is the step that I am missing.
I am looking at the wiring terminal diagram, and I see the FOR & REV terminals. Are these the ones that need to be jumped for the +10V? Could you...
P38nut,
Do you have an schematic for shorting the safeties you mention?
Thanks,
Gustavo
The VFD works fine manually, either using the keypad or potentiometer (by changing the jumper settings from 1-2 to 2-3 and viceversa)
Mach 3 is setup according to the C11 card instructions. the +10V...
I've seen that quite a few people have read my post...please I need help...I am dead in the water!
Thanks,
I recently decided to upgrade to a bigger spindle motor with a VFD (HUANYANG), controlled by a cnc4pc c11 card. After a steep learning curve and some other issues I finally got the VFD set and the...
Hi, everyone,
I am pretty new at this, but since I started building my 3 axis cnc machine a year ago, I've come a very long way.
The machine is working perfectly, I am running mach3 and...
I am still tinkerning with the subject:
I've purchased this VFD 110V VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE INVERTER VFD 1.5KW 2HP 7A | eBay
and I'm also exchanging the spindle motor that I have for...
Ok. I'll give that a try.
Thank you,
Wow, lots of nice things. I just saw this:
CNC4PC
According to what I read, this board (C33), will interface with Hobbycnc board and allow me to control spindle and pump through Mach3. Is this...
First, I apologize for all these (very basic) questions. My knowledge of electronics is very limited! (I am a chemist, wrong career!)
I purchased on Ebay. This is the link:
1.5KW MORE PRECISE...
Specs:
2) Power: 1.5 KW
3) Voltage: 110V 1 phase
4) Frequency: 400 Hz
5) Speed: 8000-24000 R/min
6) Water Cooling
7) ER11(3.175mm,4mm,6mm) collet chuck
8) Runout off: less than 0.005mm
Hello everyone,
After a million mistakes I learned from, I finished my first Table top CNC machine that I built from scratch and it works perfectly. Nevertheless, I am still a complete newbie. ...
Problem solved.
As usual, I tend to complicate things more than what they actually are. I went over all the wire connections again, and one of the stepper wires came undone. I could not see it...
I've checked all the connections but I did not find anything unusual, but I did discover this: The voltage on X and Z screw terminals is normal (I believe it was 2.8V?) on both Aa and Bb. The voltage...
I've had a Hobbycnc EZ board for almost a year, which during this period it was working fine until a couple of weeks ago when the X axis motor stopped working. I checked all the connections and they...
I have home swtiches NC on the X,Y,Z axis, and when I push them individually I see the corresponding LEDs lit up in the diagnostic page. However, they do not trigger a stop. What am I missing?
NeilW20, thank you. That did the trick. It was so easy that I looked for the most complicated solutions.
I'm sorry I am confusing the heck out of everyone, I am getting more senile than I than I thought. The stepper controller is HobbyCNC EZ driver board, and I am using Mach3.
Last night I watched the...
That's my point. I can't figure out how to configure mach so it doesn't keep on hitting the limit switches.
I am pretty new to this CNC thing, but I had no problems designing and building a 3 axis machine. The problem I have is that I cannot figure out is how to let Mach 3 know where the table ends! I've...
