Well.. i have ordered 3 "whale controllers" and got a delivery date that is almost too good to be true.
We will see in a couple of days when they arrive (just have to go to the bank and transfer some money tomorrow)

You can buy at our online webshop: http://shop.cncdrive.com ,
or write me an e-mail (info(at)cncdrive.com), with the required products and quantity.
Reply to your e-mail, I'll tell you details on payment and shipping.
We ship worldwide with EMS express.
Gaaaah
I wrote a long post that disappeared in cyberspace.
but to make a long post short yes the controller arrived to sweden 19:44 the 31 may just a couple of hours after Balazs posted in Pecs 13:02 (accoding to the EMS tracking number)
Pecs-Budapest-Malmö in 6hr 42min Thats impressive
However the swedish mailservice "Posten" wasn´t quite that impessive ssince it took them until thursday the 7th of june to deliver it to my address.
I have tested a controller with a isoflux servo (not fixed to the mill at this time)
test run with the following setup
servo
92volt 4000rpm
torque 2,4nm at 10,9ah cont. rating
intermittent 10,6nm at 45ah
encoder with a resolution of 1250
lab powersupply capable of 20ah 30volt
And it worked as intended. (Good)
Beware of that this was a testrun witout any load, but i don´t think it will cause any trouble when i go up to the intended voltage of 75 volt and apply some load.
Next weekend i´m (hopefully) going to test the controllers with EMC but since i´m lack of money for this project it will probably take a few weeks before i´m mounting the servos to the mill, i´m missing pulleys and belts.
No, our servo controller is only able to run brush servomotors, not steppers.
We have a 3 axis steppermotor controller, but I don't have the manual in English(translation in progress), we only sold the steppermotor controller in Hungary, yet. It's a well tested controller, we sold out more then 100 pieces in our country. It supports full and half stepping mode and can be configured from the PC.
If you're interested, take a look at: http://hun.cncdrive.com/hun/step1.htm
The site is in hungarian language, only the picture can be interesting for non Hungarian speaking people.
The reference to USBCNC is because I have contacted Bert, the developer of Usbcnc and I will design a board with his ucontroller, I will make a custom PCB, change the connectors to fit our servo drives.
With the steppermotor controller MACH2 and 3 and KCAM4 is well tested and working well.
About the powersupply, you will need a 5 to 6V DC regulated powersupply for the logic part(min. 200mA) and an unregulated, but buffered DC powersupply for the motors, the recommended minimum buffer capacitor size is 1000uF/Amp.
We are also manufacturing and selling toroid transformers and 10000uF 63V capacitors and 25Amp bridge rectifiers.
If you like, send me an e-mail with your questions. If I remember correctly, there are some of our steppermotor controllers working in Romania
thanx for the quick and detailed response
i think i need a complete package from you because i'm 0 at electronics.
i'm sending an email to you right now
