Does anyone know if it's possible to replace a ttl signal monochrome crt with an lcd?

The original crt is 9" and it's in a mitsubishi controled machine.

Can i just connect the video, v sync, h...

I had the crt monitor on one of my Leadwells die this weekend. It has the MO control. The CRT is an MDT-925 PS.

Has anyone replaced one of these with an LCD?

The monitor was acting funny for a...

Just a side note,
I had this error start popping up on one of my R2E3's when the batteries died. I would start there if the machine was running fine before and sat for a while.

Hope that helps,...

I Found it! My appologies to who-ever posted this previously. I can't remember who it was. Here is some more info on spindle pulse for lathe threading. This is the wiring diagram I used that works.

Hi Bill,
No plot to thicken here! Once you hook up the sensor, in Mach 3 you calibrate the spindle and Mach3 automatically recognises how many slots or tabs you have. It really is easy. I will try...

Nice looking build,
I am the guy Keith mentioned with the 9x20 converted.
I used a magnetic switch Keith had given me and added 2 tabs to my spindle. I put the switch under the front nameplate on...

One other note, they (B-W) also say that if the guide rail...

Hi Sean,
I have a router with the v guide rails (practical cnc) I use a dust hood but I still have trouble sometimes with stuff building up on the rails and causing binding. I am going to install...

Hi,
I use one of these on my router, It uses indexable carbide inserts and is made to be used in a router. I paid ~ $140 when I got mine. You need to get the cutter and a Shank for it. Once you...

Hilbilly,
I have a series 2 Boss8, It has the heidenhain encoders on it. I am pretty sure they are 500 count encoders but I will look tonight. I am pretty sure the screws on mine are .1" lead as...

Hi,
the back cover plate behind the "soft touch" key pad is exactly where the battery was on mine. Mine is a Boss 8 but I am pretty sure you will find the battery in the same place. From what I...

Hi,
Did You do know there are 2 sets of batteries on the R2E3? 1 set is behind the front control panel with the LCD, the other is in the Electrical enclosure behind the swing-out panel.

that's...

Hebert,
If the builder used permanent loctite on those screws, you are pretty much stuck with either heat or drilling them out.

I would like a look inside that spindle also!

I assume that...

Thanks,
i am waiting for a call back from Tech suport.

Thanks for the screen shot,
It doesn't look like I have the ability to backplot under the predator editor. i looked under the lisence menu and there are no checks there.
I will have to call bobcad...

1234567,
thanks for the reply,
maybe I missed something or maybe I worded my question poorly,
I am looking to see if there is a way to estimate the machining time with V23.

I can post, I can...

I just upgraded to v23 pro from V21,

Is there a way in V23 to do a run-time estimate? i can't seem to find it if there is.

thanks for any help,
Cutmore

If you need to do a bunch of these, there is an easier way in my opinion,
I machine UHMW and can hold +- .005" easily.

Make a vacuum hold down plate. All you would need would be a 3/4 or 1" thick...

RoboFutbol,
What makes you say the controller is bad? I have a 2005 vintage practical router. On mine the "control" is just a box with 3 IMS stepperdrives, a power supply, and a board that connects...

Hello,
I am looking for the same items for my 120. There is a group on Yahoo for the 120 now. There is a drawing for the bolt pattern on the spindle posted on that group as well.

If you come...

Thanks for the quick reply!
My A setting on X was 350. i set it to 50 last night and noticed no dif.+

Thanks for the tip on the F acel, I will look to see if that is set on my machine.

Last night I was running my Practicalcnc router(steppers)

I was routing plastic, the roughing went o.k, (all linear paths) but when I was running the finish program the x axis was definitely...

Hi NLH,
I posted a screenshot of the page in the programming manual about the high speed mode.

THe difference seems to be that in highspeed p1 you can use tool diameter offset, and the speed is...

Hi NLH,
the high speed mode is a g code, G05 P01,G05 P02,
G05 P0 cancels the mode.

I haven't used it yet, but maybe it will help you.


Hope that helps,

Hi NLH,
I have 2 Leadwells' with the MO control, which I think are less advanced than the M2. Mine do not run like that unless I am really running them with programs that have tiny steps(.0005")
