On the EMI question, I’m still not certain if it will be a problem but as a precaution I’ve added ferites to all of the connections to the...
Added a "spy cam" to the dust show in order to see how things are cutting as well. [ATTACH]
Largely remains to be seen. It's well grounded and shielded but I've not yet run any long jobs on it where it's actually cutting much. I should...
I gave PD073 a try and it did limit the VFD from dropping below the specified frequency, but the issue is that it just keeps the VFD spinning at...
Does this look right? PD073 Lower Analog Frequency Set Range:0.00—400.00 Hz Unit:0.01 Hz
It doesn’t work for my VFD, at least when I tried before the spindle wouldn’t fully stop.
This (or at least the 5V version of this board), is what I was adding to my VFD. This is a voltage comparator circuit, it's allowing me to add a...
Well don't I feel silly, I must have had the 24V supply turned off. Everything looks good now. Thanks for the reminder to check the obvious :)...
All of a sudden I'm not getting more than 100mV or so on the tool output when M3 S24000 (100% for my spindle). I've confirmed the wiring is...
I just followed the instructions in this link. OpenBuilds/OpenBuilds-CONTROL If you've already followed those I'm not certain why it would be...
Thank you Peter!
I finally got the Aspire trial loaded, but I'm running into issues trying to save the tool paths. When I attempt to save the toolpath it is...
I've gotten though checking things to the point that I'm confident that movement is working as expected. In order to stress test CONTROL on the...
Good to know as well. Hopefully the faster RAM in the Pi 4, and the fact that the version I'm running has 4x the amount of memory will make all...
Thanks Peter, I'll give that a try once I get everything dialed in again. Good to have criteria for an adequate test. If I run into issues...
I'm in the early phase of testing a Raspberry Pi 4 running OPENBuilds CONTROL with a blackbox. Thus far I've been able to successfully install...
Very nice, I had seen something similar on commercial panel saws but wasn't sure how to source something similar for the given weight needed for a...
I found a good article that discusses VFD noise and shielding issues. I thought I would share with anyone that runs into issues or just is...
I'm not certain that would work. Here is a link to a guy that built a DIY panel saw, I think you would need something like he implemented for the...
I would worry about all of the weight of the Z having to overcome gravity when the X is moving, having a counterweight would have the X axis...
