Mactec54 Yes I have single phase 240v. I'm not running the low legs to ground, as I value my life lol. What I am doing is running the 2 hot legs of my 240v single phase to the L and N terminals on my...

The spindle motor is a 5.5 kw 3phase servo spindle motor running a 3 phase pulse/direction drive.


The servo for my z is also a dedicated 3phase drive.
So as far as I can tell 3 phase is...

Thanks Jim,

I will definitely give them a call tomorrow, thats where I was at as well but I wasn't sure if that was just due to my more limited understanding of all of this or if there...

Sorry I mis-spoke, I am actually going to be using the PT-355 from Phase Perfect. I was originally looking at the ARC but the phase perfect seemed a much better application for the CNC.

Anyhow, My...

Will likely be 240v from an American rotory phase converter.

Hello,

Looking for suggestions to get single phase 220v for my servo drives as well as 110v single phase for the PC running the machine.

Any suggestions are appreciated!

Thanks

It's alive!

That worked great, I'm trying to figure out now though how to get the jog function on the drive working to test. I enabled parameter 95 to override the servo on command and the servo...

Al so I should be ok to just connect my two hots to L and N?

I also checked to make sure there was not continuity between N and the case as a precaution.

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to figure out how to get "Chinese 220v" in the US

I purchased some overseas Servo drives for a project that were listed as 220V single phase and didn't think much...

Very interesting, can you give us an idea of what "very reasonable" pricing is?

Jonne, you have done an great job on your retrofit, I am jumping back into mine this week. I noticed you said you broke your toolchanger. I just happened buy two complete tool changer assemblies that...

Al, this is more along the lines that I am thinking of, though this dose not have a full keyboard that I want..

Rustedout any pics of your panel?

So I have been on the forum for a while now. I have a build thread going on a brother TC225 that I have been working on doing a full rebuild and retrofit to pc based control on.

One thing that I...

Hey guys,

I have been using Camworks for about two years now, but its been a year since I have been using it since then as my new job did not have Camworks. None the less I have a relatively...

Try this link for the manual download, the other host removed it for in activity. If anyone has some free space and wants to host the file that would be awesome.

BROTHER TC225 TC215 INSTRUCTION...

This is what I came up with if you get a chance take a look and let me know what you think. If I was going to buy a new transformer specifically for this, should I look for a 240V or 230V step down...

Al what is a TFR? a transformer?

And your saying that the phase converter only generates one leg so the other two I can use just like I would the two hots for 220 single phase? and then If I...

Sorry for the caps I have been typing notes into a print for the last 30 min. and forget to turn them off lol

AL, DO YOU MEAN LIKE ONE OF THESE?

(THESE CAME OUT OF THE MACHINE ORIGINALLY ONE IS HUGE, I CAN BARLEY LIFT IT OFF THE FLOOR THE OTHER IS OF REASONABLE SIZE.)

YOU THINK ONE OF THESE WILL WORK...

and Al how would I handle the 220 Single phase. I noticed that print was 400V but I assume I just need to find a Transformer from 230 to 120?

Ok guys this kind of goes along with my original question. The spindle motor and Z Axis servo are powered by 3 phase 230, while the X & Y axis are single phase 220 and the PC requires single phase...

Fenza,
Sorry I missed your post. The motors are all servo motors from MIGE servo Company. two 1KW, 4NM, 2500 RPM for X and Y and one 1.8KW, 6NM, 3000RPM for the Z Axis.

The CS LABS stuff is...

WIzard,

Even at full load amps I would be JUST inside 8ga's capacity but I will be running 6 ga for a good safety factor.

As far as the cable chain goes, the chain and cable wont see much major...

Al just paypal'd ya thanks for all the help.

Al that would be great! Sorry I didn't notice you'r reply sooner. I think I will do 25' to be safe, if you would PM me a total price and your PAYPAL info and I will send the $ over to you!

Al I will likely need about 20' or two 10' runs since the Z axis encoder cable appeared to be poorly shielded. If you have anything laying around I would be interested in purchasing some from you.

AL I doubt I will ever get to that full load amps.

As far as the Spindle power cable goes you are saying that I would just be manually twisting the three MTW and then running a ground MTW...

Thanks Al,
I was hoping you would chime in!
