New AjaxCNC Tech Bulletins added 3-18-13

Post by cnckeith »

fyi... several new Tech Bulletins have been added to the AjaxCNC covering PC requirements, new voltage ratings on our Servo drives (now up to 180 volts!) and other good installation information..

Is there an updated list somewhere? This stops back in 2013 and I have TSB 296 on setting up a spindle load meter so there are quite a few missing.

Thanks,


Tom

Thanks, Keith. Can't wait to see the new Centroid DIY website. My Oak board should be here soon and I'm looking forward to jumping in.

Hmmm....the spindle load meter just gave me an idea. I'll have to check the vfd specs in the cabinet. The system is cnc10, but if it has an analog output on the vfd no reason I couldn't add a separate indicator somewhere. 8-)

yeah. you can always buy a little analog volt meter and use the analog output of the VFD to run the meter. check your vfd, often its 0-2 volts vdc output for load... so just buy a volt meter in that range.. and wa la you have a spindle load meter the old fashion way.
