Re: Touch probe
It looks like to me some calipers and radius gages would get that into CAD much faster.

Re: VFD control voltage
Well, the fact that you get 10V without the VFD connect pretty much narrows it down to the VFD loading the analog out. You might try a signal isolator:

Re: Torchmate accumove 2 conversion
Acorn will use the steps per rev first before the revs per inch. So if you tell it to move a certain distance and you have these settings wrong it will default to the steps per rev that you have entered in the wizard... Almost there. Acorn operates in steps. People operate in inches or mm for those...

Re: Torchmate accumove 2 conversion
What do you have your motor steps set to on the drives? In the Wizard?

Re: Torchmate accumove 2 conversion
You need at least 3 motor revs per inch of travel for correct positioning, so you need add a belt drive between your motor and screw, or replace your screws with a smaller pitch.
Just setting the revs/inch to 3 will not work

Re: Acornsix yaskawa sigma2 issue!
Make sure your spindle motor wires are properly shielded. Separate the spindle wiring from control wires and if they have to cross, make sure it's at 90 degrees.

Re: Acornsix yaskawa sigma2 issue!
If the motor drives are not showing errors for list steps, then it is probably a noise issue. Try re-running your program with the spindle off.

Re: NPT + Threads in Intercon - Workflow
I cut 0-80 and M1 all the time. You need an extremely sharp tool and very small infeeds. As for cutting into your shoulder, where are you setting your Z0 for the threading tool. If you use the point of the tool, you'll have to reduce the ending Z by 1/2 the width of the tool. I set my Z0 to the side...
