What are you going to use to convert the acorn's step and direction signals into the dc servo drive signals?

We've gotten a bit further into the disassembly of the table (x-axis). The spanner wrench I made worked on one nut (motor side), but broke on the other. That was ok though because we found out that...

Have any of you dismantled your x-axis table? I was thinking of doing so to really clean out the insides and check it out. But, I'm not exactly sure the best way to do it or what to watch out for. ...

That's a great shade of blue! Five years is a long time. Nice to see the results thought.

What a day. Lots of wrong turns. Lots of dead ends. But, the problem with the servos has been isolated to the +/-15Vdc servo supply. I'll attempt to figure out what is wrong with the power supply...

The conversion to 240V single phase is mostly complete (still have the VFD to hook up). Turns out the rotary phase converter wasn't the source of the problem. M1 still fails at the same point:...

I hooked up M1 to the rotary converter, powered up and I was able to load the master program. I tried jogging the axis, but got a fault error. This happened several times. Moved on to M2. Same...

I'm very excited. I've read through your thread multiple times now. It's like a good movie where each time you watch it, you see something you didn't see before. Anyway, yours and Bob's threads...
