Re: DC1 Wiring Question

The green and black are connected internally so i powered it up with the black wire on common and green wire disconnected. The DC1 fired up fine and went to 1 on the LED. Just wanted some input to make sure I didn't fry the DC1 right from the get go. :oops:

Thank you for the reply's!

DC1 Wiring Question

I have a simple question on wiring the DC1 Power supply. The Schematic refers to the center 2 wires as 5v return. One is a black wire and one is green. What terminal do I hook these to on the meanwell supply? Also, where do I connect the bare Shield wire?

Re: Southbend Magnaturn 612 Acorn retrofit DMM Servos

Marty, You were right, I programmed a rigid tap cycle using Intercon and it works. I can see where the Gcode is different. I also recalibrated the x and z axis as described in the Fine DRO Adjustment and I was off about .003 per inch on the z and .001 on the x axis. The threads are right on now. I h...

Re: Retrofit on fadal 6030

If I remember correctly my Fadal has the encoder on top of the spindle motor not the actual spindle.

Re: Southbend Magnaturn 612 Acorn retrofit DMM Servos

Marty, That's correct. The encoder, cable, and pigtail all came from Centroid. I am going to check my Ballscrew ratio as far as the od threading goes. It is barely off. The OAL of the Part is about .003 different than spec. May just be tool setup on the length or My ration is slightly off. As far as...

Re: new and learning

If it has DC Servo's already on it Go with the All in One like Marty Said. Going with the Acorn at that point would be going backwards.

Re: Southbend Magnaturn 612 Acorn retrofit DMM Servos

Marty, Sorry, I forgot to put I did have to put in -8192 right after hooking it up as it was backwords. It still faults out with a 438 Spindle encoder position error when trying to rigid tap. The tap goes in the contacts kick out and it errors before the spindle ever tries to reverse. Here is the G ...

Re: Southbend Magnaturn 612 Acorn retrofit DMM Servos

Running into some problems with threading. When I try to rigid tap I get a 438 spindle error. After trying to get it to run with no luck I tried a part with single point od threading. The machine cut the threads but the pitch is off. When I use the MID screen and enter spindle speed and rotation it ...

Re: Southbend Magnaturn 612 Acorn retrofit DMM Servos

The encoder is from centroid. It's for a 8mm shaft 2048-line AC Encoder. Centroid Part Number 6019, Pigtail Part Number12976, 12 ft cable Part Number 10830, and Zenner Diode for 0-10v acorn spindle output Part Number 1759. All this is plug and play. Encoder fit perfectly in place of the original whi...
