Which of these is most user-friendly?
Will I save a lot of time in toolpath calculation if I buy a faster pc with a faster motherboard and a faster cpu?
Anyone here with experience?
It is for an old Taig mill that I want to sell as soon as possible. I have run it on a parallell port for years and I now run my new Taig ball screw mill on parallell port so I think it will be good...
I now have a chance to buy a small PC: Dell optiplex 760 for only $45.- Will that be good enough for this purpose? Can I install Win XP on a PC like that?
Do you have a link to these adapters?
Will an IBM t42 laptop be good enough for driving a Gecko G540 controller? I´ve been offered to buy one with a paralell port.
Thanks for your answer.
Will the IDC to DB25 cable be a cheaper alternative than the UC-100? When I searced "IDC to DB25 cable" I got a lot of pictures of different flat cable connectors but none...
Will it be possible to connect a Gecko G540 controller with other connections than a paralell port? Are there any electronic converters that can be used for that purpose?
Are there any good freeware speed/feedrate calculators on the web? I mostly do woodwork.
And how can I find the max feedrate for my machine?
My old standard mill didn´t have any stop plate at all at that side so the end of the screw hang freely in the air at that side and that allowed the x slide to travel 4 - 5 cm more. My thought was...
I recently bought a Taig ball screw mill and it has a shorter x travel than the old standard mill. Are there any thing to do about that? Will it be pssible to cut the end stop plate in any ways so it...
I need to change the bearings in order to get less heat when engraving at higher speed and need to know if I can use the 6203/C3 option that will give an extra play when it gets hot. Anybody here...
I tried to install the gecko g540 today which had been on service and there is still problem with it. When I turned the current on, it came a litle cracking noise and there were not any lights on it....
I was blaming Taig for ghosting me. They just stop answering my mails without any explanation for doing so. It´s also the manufacturers that have the responsible for ensuring that their products...
I had a regularly conversation with Taigtools until I sent the pictures of the spindle and then they ghosted me. I have measured the rpm with a tachometer and I know it hasn´t exceeded 10 000 rpm....
I have been in contact with Taigtools but they don´t answer me anymore. They asked me to send a picture of the spindle and nut in the housing and I sent a picture where it also show that it was...
Anybody here who has tried this?

Will it be possible to use a spacer that has been made of pvc or other plastic materials or do it need to be steel? And do you know the exact lenght of the spacer that wil be suitable for a taig...

Which spindle will then be the best alternative to use together witn a consew motor?
The problem is that I bought it from an ebay dealer (deepgroove) and even if he accept a return, the shipping cost from norway to USA is very expensive, so it will maybe be a cheaper option for me ...
I tried to do that but it didn´t rotate better. I´m now running the spindle unloaded at a very low speed and will see if that helps after som hours.
Any improvements with the spindle? I have exactly the same problem with a new Taig mill I bought recently.
I bought a new Taig mill from Deepgroove and the spindle doesn´t run easily and it gets very hot after just some minutes on 8000 rpm. It doesn´t help to loose the nut at the top, so I need to know if...
Are there different types of mica. When i search on the web there are many places that cescribe mica as a termal insulator....
Is mica sheet an electric insulator and a good termal conductor? And what about the termal paste if some of it squeeze beyond the sides of the sheet, can that transfere current? I use Arctic Cooling...
I thought I would get a better termal conduction with termal paste than the layer, but didn´t know it would shortcut anything.
Is the hard anodizing a better termal conductor than termal pads? How can I fix it? I´ve heard that the temperature inside can reach 200 degr. C so I believe I need somthing else than normal paint.
I think the only damage that happened was that the 10 a fuse blow out. I´ve now replaced it with a new fuse and mounted the drivers one at a time and now the green led lights with all drivers...
Here and here are some pictures.
