Here is a picture of the cabinet.

Jefco MSI from West Alexandria Ohio did the installation for me. When the install was being performed, I was informed that they were much more used to installing Yaskawa servos with their retrofits and the only Estun servo drive installs they performed before my retrofit was with Acorn boards. In ...

Ok, so from fooling around with it some more, I believe the problem may be the servo tuning. whenever I use the MPG to jog the servos, the servos end up getting a little unsettled. This issue happens primarily with the Z-axis servo. when I use the MPG to jog it and I stop, I notice that the "load ...

No, I don't believe I have set the date and time correctly. Also, the control computer that is currently on the mill is not the original as the one I purchased in 2018 had a graphics failure. So, this version I have is a CNC12, not a CNC11.

that is correct, it works wonderfully during a program. no ...

Sure thing. When I posted last night I was already home and not at the shop. Here is the report.

My mill is running a 2019 M400 with Estun servos & drives.

I am having this issue that seems to be getting progressively worse. It happens whenever I want to use the mill manually such as jog it or press the tool check button (during non-program moves such as setting z heights and such). Basically ...

I am not exactly sure what the ratio would be. I would need to go back out to my shop tomorrow and take note of what the DRO says and what the VFD outputs. I do know that the VFD gets to 60hz far before the control makes it to it's 6250 number. Sounds like that would be expected as as 6250 would be ...

For some reason, my spindle does not have any change in speed for the spindle commands in g code. If I want 1000RPM or any other RPM value, it will simply just give the VFD the max 10V analog signal and the VFD will output its max frequency based on its parameters, in this case being 60hz. I have my ...

Does the Z axis need to homed in order to use the tool height offsets? I am under the impression that the only figure the tool height offsets use is the tool number used to set part zero for the Z.

Ok, I see. That makes sense. Thank you, Keith.
