Hello everyone. We have a Multicam Series I router at work and am upgrading to Mach 3. I am familiar with Mach 3 and ARTCAM and have succsesfully built new controllers for the motors which all work fine.
The Problem however is that when we turn the spindle on (a PERSKE spindle with its own controler) the Z axis moves up or down depending on it's last movement. We have derived that it maybe back EMF causing the stepper to move but short of putting a new spindle on what can we do.
I would like to keep the existing control boards KTA-263 from ocean controls http://www.oceancontrols.com.au/moto...ontrollers.htmand their breakout board. Do we need a different driver board or would sheilding the spindle be a better idea?
Thanks in advance.
