I have a Semi MT30F4-45 motor and have no idea of the encoder pinout. I wondered if anyone had? It has a 10 pin circular connector.
Thanks in advance.

8 years later and I still haven't done it. I gave up on eplan.
I got the electrical bit for solidworks a few months ago, I started but I clearly haven't got
a clue about electrics, I think paper...

I was looking at a sketch of the plug pinout, when I saw tg and fg, seems
there is actually a TG+ and TG-, I would say gotta be a tach, but I am rarely ever right;-)

Wonder if it is tacho generator?

Just sketching out a wiring diagram and I happened to look at my old notes and my feedback units,

I have 30 quid invested in the pair of readouts, capacitors and other bits, can't buy another one now;-)

If you need to chuck it in the bin, let me know;-)

When I am scrapping some lolly I will let you know.

I have removed all the electronics and will[probably] be using granite drives, a pc and a modern vfd. At the moment I am not worrying about the toolchanger.

My goal is to scrape together the money to buy my drives by then.
Any more details of this available?

I couldn't find any hence the sketch. My matsuura had these soft clear rubber[silicone?] boot's over ring terminals that were bolted...

Cheers..
I am 39 pages into the 356 page pdf!
Had to re-read a few pages, already a bit confused.

I bought a secondhand Omron 3G3MV AB040.

I have to test the VFD as soon as it arrives, after some time waiting for the bloke to answer my email he asked me to send him an email saying I wouldn't...

I would expect it to be the same as the ones sold in the UK. So the same as mine. Mine is a V2. Glancing at the pdf's for the electrical stuff it doesn't look that easy.

All the motors are 200V...

watching this with interest.

I have a pendant panel I want to letter, first idea was
anodise and silkscreen than seal the anodise? I don't know if that show they do it. Just done my first...

Any idea when these will be for sale?

A rotary isn't hard to make and would cost a few hundred with new parts, I can let you have drawings and possible places to get parts.
The Bridgeport is going to have a vfd and if it's anything like...

I would be switching from the oil pump to having both pumps running.

Seems the answer is get a vfd and see.

Would it be possible to run my lubrication system[10W motor continously run] and the coolant[motor about 5inch diam by 4inches long[no plate]] pump, from one vfd? I am guessing the coolant motor is...

I used a cordless 24V drill battery to power the motors
on my mill while cleaning it.

I was cleaning a showa YMAS pump, only partially stripped and cleaned it so far.
Doesn't look like it should work! the piston/plunger has an output one way valve but no input valve?
Does anyone...

I have the showa PSS metering units. The metering units were in need of a clean.
I was told that they should just be replaced, one price I got was around 20 quid[pounds] each and there are in excess...

Ask over on the mach forum, or the smoothstepper forum.
I asked someone with video's on utube. From what he said everything was much smoother and he increased his rapids till it got scarey;-)

I have yaskawa motors, I also have the relevant servopak. I found yaskawa PDF's online that covered, motors servodrives and combined pdf's that covered drives and motors. I just searched google. When...

Don't think I am talking about that;-)
The pss units I meant are the same as the bijur meter units.

I assumed it would just bolt straight back on. For some reason the coupling must have been removed from the motor, I don't remember doing it. Anyway it was fairly obvious how it shoud be assembled...

I stripped the PSS1 valves on the z axis and cleaned them.
A squirty oil can seems to be a great way to preoil.

I just started on the Y axis. I cleaned the PSS valves on the manifold nearest to...

I was looking at used bridgeport interacts, seemed better than cnc-ing my mill. One concern was getting it in the door. 69inches with the door open, that sounds wrong but it's not 79. Anyway low...
