Re: Hardinge CHNC4 Retrofit
Is it possible to use external drives with an ALLIN1DC? I have a bunch of gecko drives that I could use to test my servo motor... For some reason I think it doesn't like step and direction. I am trying to do some test with a board that can't drive my servo motor.

Re: dxf import
I'm using Rhino, but not very experienced. I do know that Rhino has an export with origin option. This could be what I need to figure out. I am not familiar with Rhino but I expect there is a way to show an X-Y and Hopefully Z axis or plane. That is the origin. in Fusion360 and Creo items are often...

Re: dxf import
What CAD are you using? Some systems allow you to set the origin of the drawing. There are a variety of options for exporting DXF files some work better than others; it will depend on your CAD as to what's available

Re: Hardinge CHNC4 Retrofit
Hi Lavrgs, just curious, does it blow the fuse with every thing unhooked? The short answer is No. I do have the servos disconnected and perhaps the contactor didn't close... Several days ago I did a swap of X and Z and when I did that I got no motion from the X axis terminal, now driving the carria...

Re: Hardinge CHNC4 Retrofit
I did not find any resistance in the wires Red and black were open to ground and when connected together on one end there was about 1 Ohm across red/black

Re: Hardinge CHNC4 Retrofit
Update to the motors; I rechecked the Z axis motor, at the motor, and things seem to be more like you would expect; red to black 1.9 Ohm and for both blk to gnd and red to gnd the numbers are ~2 MOhm. I also looked at the X axis motor, at the motor and the results are similar to what I had earlier 2...

Investigating motor issues; The motor is a Centroid p/n 3879 17 in/lb 2350 rpm @120 vdc I took he X motor out, spun it by hand no problem. then I shorted the two wire and felt it dragging. I also ran it with 12 vdc and it spins freely. I measured resistance; red to black 1.5 Ohm. Red to gnd open Bla...

Re: X Axis problems Hardinge Lathe
Probably should have checked earlier but the X axis fuse was blown and the replacement blew as soon as I powered the board. I will need to start the process of returning the board. This was bought August 2023 what is the warranty period?

Re: Hardinge CHNC4 Retrofit
It's the one on the board. And I noticed #2 was blinking later. BUT
I checked the X fuse on the board and it was blown. I'm pretty sure I heard the replacement go...poof...yup it blew as soon as I turned on power.
I would think that could be why Z didn't move when the swap happened...

On the ALLIN12DC one of the limit defeat switches is blinking green - specifically #3
