I am almost complete with the rails, table and gantry. X axis is 11'; Y axis is 52"; Z axis is 30". I am using 4 GECKO G230V. They are mounted on a large heat sink. I am using the C11G breakout board. The question comes, where do I purchase an 80 volt transformer and how do I size the capacitors. I have access to just about any tools and pushbuttons what seems to be the popular buttons and lights people like on the outside of the door. My control box is 24x24x8. It is a NEMA 3R enclosure with gasket.
Questions:
Where do I buy an 120 or 240 to 80 volt transformer?
Where do I buy the capacitors and how do I size it/them?
What are the popular controls and indications on the outside of the box?
What are the popular connectors to connect to the motors and to create an easy disconnect between the box and motor cables?
Thanks in advance
Robert
Mouser Electronics in Texas has everything you will need. What does gecko recommend on the cap? How many and what size steppers are you running and how many axis do you expect to have going simultaneously?Those will all have a bearing I am sure.
