Hello again, I have spent another little time on this project and I have been doing some tests with the tool changer and I have managed to make some tool changes but giving commands to my delta drive externally and it seems to work, now I would have to make some program so that the software is in ch...

Parameter 65 is only needed if the ratio changes when you shift gears. If your machine has only one gear range and only one belt ratio -- so that the speed ratio between the motor and the tool does not change -- then you do not use Parameter 65. You just set the maximum speed, in the Control Config...

Spindle speed commands are strictly proportional. Your Delta spindle drive should turn the motor at full speed when it is given a +10V analog speed reference; at half speed when given a +5V reference; at 1/10 speed when given a +1V reference; and so on. On the Centroid Control Configuration screen,...

Good again. This week I am going to try to control the speed of the spindle, I think I have to connect the signal to the encoder connector number 6 on the oka board and configure the parameters as the manual says. I have a question, my machine has two encoders, one in the motor and the other in the...

Hello again, today I have been making configurations in the z axis and I have managed to make the spindle rotate when it is coupled with the tool drum, I have achieved it by canceling the upper switch and configuring the upper limit by software, I can use this switch in the plc or in the macro to co...

Hello again, I am going to leave a link to a video of a machine operating correctly, and a link to a manual that can be seen on page 30 on the operation of the tool changer. There are two switches, one for the work reference of the z axis, and another to know when the spindle is engaged with the dru...

Thanks for the quick response, but I missed a detail in the previous explanation and I think I can't do what it tells me. The problem is that my z axis uses two switches, one at the bottom that is the work reference, and the second at the top that is the limit, the second is the one that blocks the ...

Good morning, these days I have started again with this project that I had to park for a while, I have started to study to be able to make the tool changer work, I think I have solved almost all the logic but I need someone who can program that logic for me .Another question that has arisen, is ther...

Good morning, sorry for answering late, I had to pause the conversion for a season, due to other problems that have arisen, nothing to do with the machine, but I think I will be able to continue shortly, thank you for your attention anyway
