Hello all,
I have my classical Chinese CNC 6040 for some time now, and it works fine ( I do break bits sometimes but much less frequent since I figured out that my spindle was turning the wrong way hahahah )
I know the basics, I know how to 2.5D cut, or cut out stuff as I need, but I would love to make some changes to the CNC and learn more thing like how the hell to use the 4th axis ( lathe ), how to use the "touch" zero thingy...
But first some safety. I would love to add homing and limit switches... any ideas how to wire them ( I know where they should be ) and set them up in Mach3 ?
Here are some pictures of controller ( I guess the switches should be wired into it?)
