Re: Grizzly G4003G conversion

So I think I understand. 12 to 24 volt PS to take power to servo enable, I assume this has to be hot in order For the servo to work, Then set up each internal speed command for forward and reverse, running the 24 volts through the forward and reverse switch on the lathe. Of course run the 24 volts ...

Re: Grizzly G4003G conversion

Re: Grizzly G4003G conversion

I would agree with the 3 phase and vfd normally being cheaper, however not in this case. The link is to a servo motor with a controler and timing gears and belt for $444.00 that will bolt right up to my machine.

Its been a longer than I thought project, but worth it. Building the control panel was more work than I realized but taking my time to make sure I had it straight in my head paid off. I have successfully cut test parts today, and aside from the typical plasma table issues they came out great. My ...

There is absolutely ...
