Wow! Looks damn good to me.

Thank you!!!! That’s is all SUPER SUPER SUPER HELPFUL!

I’ve got a call out to Mitsubishi support as well.

Yay! This gives me something to check and one more issue to check off the list.

Wow! That’s beautiful!!!

You have Parameter 256 = 1, suggesting you intend to use analog velocity mode. That would be my choice too, starting out.

For that to work, however, you need to have non-zero gains in Kp, Ki and Kd; and ideally have a fairly large value (between 50 and 100) in Kv1.

Try Kp = 0.01, Ki = 0.0005, Kd ...

Thanks Marc!

I’ll give that a try in the morning! Thank you!!!!!

Good Day all! After a couple months off with "life", I'm back on this build and looking for some help. Again.

YES! Thanks Tom. Thanks for chiming in!

1) is that spindle equipped with an encoder, or do you have a way to mount one?

2) if yes to mounting your own does it meet the Acorn specs?

3) is the encoder capable of same rpm as the spindle?

4). Why would you need rigid tapping in wood?


I would purchase the encoder installed from the ...

Hello there all!

As I get a bit deeper into my retrofit, I thought I'd ask the opinions of you all.

I will be upgrading the spindle on my router to a new 13HP, ATC with HSK63 taper.

I'm debating if I should get the encoder as well? I'm asking a GENERAL question here. Yes, I know a person needs it ...
