Hello, I’m at a crossroad in my CNC project and I’m looking for some advice going forward. I have retrofitted my Eumach MC800P with an Oak controller and the add1616 card still using the Siemens Simodrive 611 analog VFD and servo drive and the Siemens 1.8kw (11 Nm) servos that I have fitted the Cent...

Re: SIMODRIVE 611 system on VMC

Re: Keep SimoDrive 611 ?

Two separat encoders per axis. I only changed out the 500 line that was hooked up to the heidenhain 407 controller with the 10000 line hooked to centroid oak.

Re: Keep SimoDrive 611 ?

Re: Keep SimoDrive 611 ?

I did keep mine and got it working good so far. I did change the main encoders on the servos. does yours have two encoders on the servos? one to the controller and one to the 611 drive?

Re: Spindle fan time on adjustment

Is there a way to make this relay turn on for 2 minutes every 5 minutes or any other custom time confi...

Re: Help with Eumach MC-800P retrofiting to OAK.

Re: Help with Eumach MC-800P retrofiting to OAK.
