For those looking at this machine, here is my experience so far.
I ordered this right before the Chinese new year, so was not sure as to the delivery time and such. I received no tracking info, but got the machine in two heavy boxes 2 weeks later (I live in Wisconsin, USA). I was pretty good with that. Things were packed well. One small piece that holds the wiring channel was broke, but very minor and still holds ok. The rest of the machine looked great. I was impressed with the build as it is a robust machine for the price.
Set up is pretty easy, although they supply nothing saying how to do it. I put the gantry on backwards and wasted 30 min, but upon changing it around, it was done and ready to go.
Bad side is it came with no paperwork or software to assist communication and running the machine. The quick start guide is online here and other spots and that helps alot. You can get Mach3 and install that, but if you do so, it will not talk with the machine. When you plug in the USB, it did not recognize the USB card like they say. This had me worried. I went back to the quick start and found a file needed to be put into the plug ins area, but Carving -cnc did not send any software or files.... I found it on the internet in one place on a shady looking file site, but I downloaded it, put it in the plugins area of Mach3 and held my breath. I restarted mach, plugged in the usb and it recognized the card and it worked!
The spindle is robust and quiet. It seems reallys solid. The water pump that came with it does accept 120V (unlike they said) and works fine. The lines are very thin, but upon pumping, they uncrimp and work fine. X Y Z movement is solid and smooth. Fan is a bit loud on the box, but nothing terrible.
I made a program with photoVcarve and when I got to the point of loading it. Even though I had the units in Mach3 set to imperial, when I brought the program over, it barely moved. I soon realized I needed to set my program in mm when I made the program as my inch movements were interpreted as millimeters when fed to the cnc. I also saved the programs to the mach3 code format, but that did not work, so I outputted code as general gcode (program name.tap) and it worked fine.
I am having a few problems that I assume are related to Mach3, not the cnc. When I loaded in the program, the first few times it only pulled in a portion of the program. I did not catch this and upon running the program, it would go until it ran out of code and stop. I shut down mach3 and rebooted. I pulled in the same program and it all came through (the view of the cutting looked complete). I ran the program and it stopped a ways into the cutting, slightly farther than the prior time. I then looked at the code and most of the program was missing. It was there before as I looked at the end of the code and all the shutdown codes were present. I have a registered version, so not sure why this is occuring. Also, even though my code had a spindle start, the first few times, the spindle did not come on. Last versions did, so this may have been related to issues I was seeing prior.
Any help would be appreciated. I will update this as i learn things about this machine. So far it is solid other than the lack of documentation.
