Hello,

I am working on retrofitting an old Shizuoka AN-S mill with 6MB Fanuc controls. The mill has three Fanuc 0M servo motors (A06B-0613-B031 Fanuc 0M - 12A peak, 56V, 2000 rpm, 2000 count...

Can anyone give me some advice on this VFD (GE/Fuji AF-300 E11)? I am looking at using it for the 2.2 KW, 3 hp motor on my Shizuoka ST-N.

Attached is the 2 page brochure.

I would think it...

Thanks for the response, but I do not understand what you mean by "low voltage low wattage globes".

I've got an ignorant question; can a three phase transformer be converted to run on single phase?

I was wondering if it could be done as follows:

The Fanuc motors are type ao6b-0613-b031, dc servo motor model O.

Would this be enough information to find out if they have encoders or resolvers?

The alarm given on the Shizuoka with 6M...

I'll have to get back to you on the Fanuc motors.

I am currently looking at retrofitting either an early eighties Shizuoka ST-N with a broken Fanuc 6M b control or an early eighties Wells Index 762 with a working Bandit I servo controller.

Here is a photo of what I came up with for my Z axis on my Enco mill/drill.

The large drive sprocket is an interference fit to the hollow angular contact bearing shaft. That shaft has internal...

After looking at the other pre-loaded ballscrew designs out there, I think I've found an easier solution.

Just thought I'd post my design for making a simple preloaded ballscrew. There is only...

Thanks for the help Gerry.

I guess I'll go ahead and order a HobbyCNC board on Tuesday if I don't hear anything from the software vendors I've contacted or anyone else here.

I recently purchased a ScanTek Micromill 2000 (basically a Denford with different labels) off ebay for $350 shipped.

Its a small, enclosed, CNC mill used mainly for education and training. The...
