G-day mates!
IM completelely new at this and am happy to find info like this!
Im building a retrofitted (mini mill 9x1 super) a c1 lathe and a router all at once..just recieved my steppers and power supply with controller yesterday,did what the instuctios say..but no action on the steppers...this is going to be 1 long trek i can see.....oh well its started so no turning back now...the contoller seems to be working as it puts a emergency stop on the steppers but it wont run any codes...and when the codes are running the corosponding axis led lghts up to show its doing its thing ..still no output
driving me nuts!
right back to some hair pulling and coffee
cheers guys
Howdee Again!
Finnished setting the system up for testing..and it Works! the software was the problem...found a working version supplied with a controller on e-bay and installed that and 1 hour later all 4 axis had action..
just thought as you are all such a friendly bunch you would like to know
have a good day!
Great to see you got it working.
The problem is generally always something simple
Where's the pictures?
Some progress this weekend just finnished buiding motor mount and spindle holder and 1st gantry truck!
YEEEHAAAA!
its happenning in a BIG way now!
Looking good haydn !! keep those pictures comming.
Hope you got your 4 axis working ok.
well its been one long night!..
the nema23 240oz/in dont have the power to lift the axis.....so need more powerfull motors or im not getting the full tourque out of them...anyhow some pics for you guys to see my design its a mashed up version of a few machines ive seen and liked....
olso managed to blow an axis on my controler so hope to be able to fix it ordered the new chip so hope its the only one that got creamed!
YEEHAAAA!
finnished and test run the Z axis gantry
COOOL!
Cool alright.
You are using very heavy ally sections so it should be rigid enough. I'll keep watching with interest.
I'm from your part of the planet.

Hi Vanhelli,
Looks great so far what you have done. I am new here also and have previously built a machine before i had others to bounce ideas from.n My machine is on www.lowcostcncretrofits.com.au. Keith there was very helpful and i have another machine in design stages to be 2050x3050x200 process area.
