Chris,
Looks like you responded last night, so not sure why I just got an email notice for your response.
I did get it figured out today. The screw was the part I was missing.
Thanks!

I'm a bit unclear on how to get this z-axis shaft out. Even if I were to remove the C-clip (#822), I can't see how the shaft would some out.
Some please educate me.
Thanks

Hmmm... yeah, you're right about it being a double radial bearing. I had contacted them (as they're close to me) and was pointed to this specific part number. I'll keep searching.
Thanks.
I'm getting ready to machine a ballscrew for converting a G0602 to CNC. I've read the stickies, but have some questions still...
- Is this (drawing below) the correct way to machine the screw? ...
I got one of these several years ago, and recently dug it up and want to install it now. But can't find the instructions, so looking for any help in figuring out which parts go to where. I did find...
Ah, I left these guys a message last week, but hadn't heard back... I had found the C11G, but not these spindle-only boards.. The C69 and C6 looks like what I need. However, I've never setup Mach 3...
Al,
I don't have a model number, but these pics below show the machine, controller and spindle-control board (I'm avoiding the term "VFD" as I'm not sure of the specific drive method. However, I...
Hmmm... no one? Or should I ask a bit higher level, what do I need to drive a 0-10V spindle controller from Mach 3?
Can anyone recommend a simple board that takes a USB signal (will be from Mach3 on Windows 7) and puts out a 0-10V analog signal?
More context: I was helping someone get one of those ebay 6040Z...
Got a pre-hacked laser from someone. I believe it's an X700. Short version is I need to wire up a Ruida controller to this laser, but I'm not sure what the connections on the power-supply are for. ...
Somehow I expected this. Sharing mill and lathe is no issue, but if I can't get a decent finish, then I won't bother.
Thanks.
So I've done a bunch of research on this and a large enough bore will be required to make this viable. And a lathe which has that is too large for my space currently. I also need to get a CNC mill...
Good find on the BDtools kit. Yes, I'll have to run some tests to see if 3"-4" protrusion is too much... this would have to be consistently repeatable though.
I'm in Orlando, FL.
I am also...
Jim, With it's 5/8" length, I was expecting/hoping that I could load up a piece of aluminum tubing about 3"-4" long and make 4 or 5 pieces, then chuck up another, etc.
It's a custom part (covers...
I made this part ( http://orlandorobotbuilders.com/stuff/VXPA-C02.jpg ) which is approx 2"D x 5/8"H manually on my G0602, but I want to make a thousand or more now. I'm looking for a "quick/simple"...
Ah, gotcha.
Thanks.
he1957: Somehow I expect this answer (re: combo mill/drills).
RussellCoID: Why or how do you come up with 15k, since this machine is $7.5k?
Thanks.
I need to make a couple thousand small parts (turn and mill) of about 2.5" dia and a couple inches long, and looking for a machine that can handle these. FWIW, pricing from existing suppliers has...
Okay, I've revised so I'll now cut first, drill, then insert in to the jig (pic attached) and hand-bend (with large thick garden glove). I'll test first to ensure the holes aren't stretching.
...
See, I was expecting some major revelation in fabrication processes :)
I use/drill 5052 for other reasons and not found it to be gummy. Holes should be about +/-0.008". I don't see an issue in...
I need to make about 100 pcs of this part (attached), and need it ASAP, so want to do this myself. The part is made of 0.5" wide strips of 0.090" 5052 aluminum (which I already have). It's about 2"...
Couple quick notes:
- I ship USPS for work a lot and on a few occasions they marked packages (Priority Mail) as delivered when they were not. The customers went to the post office to complain and...
At this point also, I've done enough circuit tracing to determine that the input to the motor controller is analog, and that's one of the three white (striped) wires, and going into an op-amp. The...
The motor control board is definitely not Oriental -- it's got "APS" on the bottom, which is the manufacturer of the reflow oven.
Does that mysterious book explain how I can control this thing? I have 2 options here now... (1) Figure out the control signals to the proprietary board, or (2) get a controller that works with that...
So my next obvious question is "how?", as in how did you come to that conclusion?
So the motor pretty much looks like this. And it seems the capacitor (similar markings too) is one of these.
But the more important question is about the controller -- and more specifically what...
Pic of the motor.
Pic of the controller board.
Pic of the wires/connections and capacitor.
I'll get a pic.
In the meanwhile, I was able to get enough access to determine that the gearhead on the motor is Oriental Motor 4GK180KA. I could not find it on Oriental's website, but did find...
Hi all,
I'm trying to figure out what type of motor and associated controller I have (in a conveyor reflow oven), and hoping someone here can help...
The motor has 3 wires out the side near the...
