You can prolly get a connector from Mouser.
It looks to be an Amphenol type.

Bought a rotary table for my DM2800 like I've seen in pictures. Two issues:
1. The motor housing rotates. Is there a set screw missing? (first pic)
2. Classic square peg in round hole. Table has a different connector than machine (2nd pic). Any suggestions?

Hi,
Your yuasa table is set up for DM 2200 SMALL MILL. It has the correct plug for that mill. Also, the stepper is also wrong for the DM 2800, it is the stepper used in the DM 2200 axes. The stepper used in the DM2800 yuasa table is the same as the axes motors on the DM2800. You cannot just change the plug,it is metric For you to use the yuasa table you have make or find the axes assmbley housing and related parts. This is what has happen to me. I made or bought all the parts needed change from a unit that was made for a DM2200 mill to a DM2800 mill. About the first question,yes their is a set screw to lock the stepper housing from turning.

David,
I REALLY appreciate you taking the time to post. This is valuable information and sets me on a new course. I pulled the motor covers off and noticed they were different, and the rotary has what looks like it's own driver board. You saved me countless hours experimenting with wiring configuration. Now I need to decide whether to make this one work or try to find one made for the 2800. Thanks again.
BTW I got the motor locked down, I found 4 set screws that were loose.
Do you still have the Dyna rotory table and do you want to sell it? I am looking for one.
sitting here but determined to get it working unless I can find one for the 2800.
I know it's been over a year but the wife thinks kids activities ALWAYS come first.
Why not replace the stepper motor with a new larger one and change the male and female plugs?Originally Posted by mfgbydesign
Why are there so many wires on the connector? Max number of wires on a stepper motor is typically 8. Is there a brake or a home switch?
Marty,
Thanks for the idea. Looking for specs on the original DM2800 4th axis stepper motor. The driver appears the same as linear axis.
I believe they used the same stepper motors as the axis motors. If you know the specs on your current stepper motors you should be able to find a close match.
You could change out the connector to a Circular Pin Connector (CPC) or a DB9 connector such as used on the Gecko G540 drive. You should only need 4 wires to drive the stepper.
