I hope people see this and this is where I start my build thread I'm told?. My god, it's been one year since I posted last, my apologies and I hope to get things moving with my build/retrofit. I'm still recovering but I had a close call as I woke months ago only to discover I couldn't breath, off to ...

sorry wockie i forgot this was your post mate... my apologies, i reread it just now and anyway how did you go?

im just thinking like welders where voltage and amps go up together on the auto machines. anyway set at 50;1 like all are saying cant be wrong as every man and his dog run the xp range. Why I have you here, for me to get all the hypertherm installed cut settings and thicknesses speeds etc is that ...

cheers Joey. I thought so! This is why I got confused at the start months back. But totally get it. Resolution is smaller\ hence more accuracy. As stated the gears I have are tiny 11 tooth on the motors, workable as the old motors did, so i will go with that for now as I need it up and running plus ...

cheers joey, and thanks for reply. i forgot to answere, when im up and running i will read voltage output from cpc output and see what it reads, hang on, i cant really unless its cutt ing at full amps to check voltage level? cheers

thanks mate. i didnt realise i hadnt answered and thanked you, so cheers

Centroid CNC Plasma Manual error? Looking Back I now know why I was confused. Also a question. This sweet spot area of a motors performance, its gearing to put its usable rpm, much like a car, in the speeds of our requirements etc...readable in that chart.
Now they word it ....."more is better" the ...

How did you go? Im doing a new build and cant think of anything.... I have the CL57T drivers and nema 23 closed loop steppers. I wired up one motor through the board to do a bench test and got it jogging one way and the other. Now if you say you have that, will that would make me think its not ...

Cheers Shawn, thanks, thought it sounded the same lol. i thought it went to the acorn board but no its the isolated tx board. Yes Ive bought 3 flush sensors and I will turn up my own circular float and crash ring thingy. Just finished making my own machine torch out of a hand torch. Im in australia ...

Is there any more information on electronic gearing or settings, that are explained for the less experienced ? cheers Keith and I appreciate all yours and others input and time.
