Re: Spindle issue after using a gcode program

You can set VFD Enable and connect nothing to test if m3 is working after this.

Re: Spindle issue after using a gcode program

In the PLC SpindleEnableOut_M is required to activate M3, maybe with no VFD Enable, after M5 it will not be set again.

Re: Spindle issue after using a gcode program

How do you make sure that the VFD is enabled, if not sending an enable signal?

Re: Rigid Tapping Question

The video I showed you is with forming.

Forming will not work in all materials, must be with >15% elongation at break.

Predrilling needs to be bigger than for thread cutting, follow manufactures recommendations.

Re: Rigid Tapping Question

My settings with Servo set to 0.2 s acceleration.

Try 0.5s Spindle Accel/Decel Time first in the Wizard

You can do some air tapping to watch if it seems to work.
