    Re: TB6600 drive from EBAY

    Depends on what burned up. If just the sense resistors burned up then yes swapping that will fix your issue. But if the driver IC or PCB burned up then changing the resistor will not help anything....

    project is not only still alive it has been done for a while. Just finally getting around to editing the video.
    More to come.

    Re: TB6600 drive from EBAY

    Just verified the MIB JY6600SW project and schematic included in the zip file attached here opens fine in KiCad 4.0.4 stable. Guessing either your download got corrupted or there is a incompatibility...

    Re: TB6600 drive from EBAY

    jfong posted a link to the datasheet. Looks like a 4A 50V with 1/32 microstepping driver. Fact that it is in a QFN package tells me it is of newer tech than the old TB6600. My guess is a newer more...

    Re: TB6600 drive from EBAY

    Not sure that is a TB6600 driver have not seen a TB6600 in a BGA package before. Can you carefully clean of the heatsink compound from the top of the IC and post the part numbers marked on top?

    Re: TB6600 drive from EBAY

    Yep that is within a tenth of what I calculated and your correct that Vref is in the "safe zone" for the input. Another side note for the sense resistors there are 2 sets on every card. The 3 on the...

    Re: TB6600 drive from EBAY

    Yes there is a formula but need some more info off your board. On the other side there should be some large sense resistors. Need to know the values of these resistors (number code on them) and how...
  8. Re: Pimp my lathe. Converting a HF 44142 3in1 to 3 phase

    Some minor updates to the wiring diagram had to run one main contractor off a switch on the other. If I tried to close both at the same time my transformer would brown out and they would chatter and...

    Project is not dead yet.
    Had some time while waiting on parts for another project so pulled out the stepper driver plate and worked on it some more.
    I think I am going to go with a motion board...

    Re: TB6600 drive from EBAY

    Just got done reversing the latest batch of Ebay TB6600 cards.
    This one is marked BL-TB6600-V1.2 D412
    Note in the photos the one without the heatsink I moved all the tall components to the back...
  12. Re: Pimp my lathe. Converting a HF 44142 3in1 to 3 phase

    Semi final wiring diagram done and attached. Just placed the order for the parts I was missing. New Lathe motor mount and motor installed now.

    Another update video here:

    Got another junk motor (out of a snowbank no less) and rebuilt it with acceptable results. Has a slight whine at high speeds...
  14. Re: Pimp my lathe. Converting a HF 44142 3in1 to 3 phase

    Some minor progress today got most of the wire strung in the house and the service disconnect output all buttoned up. Just 1 more hole, 1 board, 3 wire staples, and 7 screws till I am done :)

  16. Re: Pimp my lathe. Converting a HF 44142 3in1 to 3 phase

    The voltage/frequency curve is flat from 60 to 120Hz in my current setup. Would think for a given speed increase the work needed to spin the motor would go up with speed. (bearing / air drag) If that...

    Feeling motivated tonight here is another video.

  18. Re: Pimp my lathe. Converting a HF 44142 3in1 to 3 phase

    Seems overpriced. Automation direct has similar motors for ~$50 less. More than likely will just try and find another used motor and rebuild it myself again. Save quite a bit that way and my hobby...
  19. Pimp my lathe. Converting a HF 44142 3in1 to 3 phase

    Re: Rebuild log Universal Laser Systems 25PS

    All of the reading I have done on DC tubes have stated their run life is much shorter than a RF tube for engraving. Agree the cheap china tubes are the shortest of the bunch. But even on the US made...

    Re: Rebuild log Universal Laser Systems 25PS

    1.) Check your mirrors and lenses. They by far are the most common thing to go bad and the cheapest to repair.

    2.) If not that tube is the next thing up to look at. cgerber post is a great on...

    Re: Rebuild log Universal Laser Systems 25PS

    The lenses and mirrors you want to look at are the "flying" one on the moving arms of the machine. Just take a flashlight and look at them. If there are spots and pitting they are bad. If they look...

    Re: Rebuild log Universal Laser Systems 25PS

    Yea the RF tubes are great for longevity and are regularly re-gassed and put back in service. Downside is they are 10x the cost of a HVDC (exposed glass) tubes new. My setup came without the laser...

    Re: Rebuild log Universal Laser Systems 25PS

    Is your laser air or water cooled? (since you said it was similar want to make sure it has a air cooled RF laser on it)

    If so have you checked the fans / airflow?

    Since the laser is working but...
