Centroid Community CNC Support Forum

Keith, thanks, I would appreciate any help you can give. I've found PLC program on the console for Redoak with swing arm ATC and it looks like it's just about right for what I want, maybe I can modify it, but maybe I'm wrong too, I'm that confused now that I don't know whats what... cncsnw, Thank yo...

Owen, i'd plan on buying some tech support time. install the swing arm plc program when installing cnc12 and follow this typical swing arm schematic as a guide. HI Keith, Sorry to hijack an old thread, but I can't find a swing arm plc program for Oak, where would I find one? Anyone have one that wo...

Thanks I'm using Oak, but like you said, it should point me in the right direction.

Thank you for that, I know absolutely nothing about editing plc but it looks like I’m about to take a crash course... that schematic is the most detailed one I’ve seen for the 4th axis, thanks for that.

HI everyone, sorry to hijack, but I have a golden sun rotary table with Yaskawa drive, I'm in the process of converting from Anilam to Centroid Oak, and I cannot for the life of me find any wiring diagram, schematic, or tech bulletin that shows the connections to the Oak board (clamp solenoid, Clamp...

Hi Matry, Thanks, I guess I don't think of it as a nice machine, Since I've bought it i've had so much trouble with it, So when i look at it I just see a bunch of wasted time and money (in Australia we call it a WOFTAM, I'm sure you can figure it out). But I think Centroid will solve all of my probl...

HI Stephen, Yes I have the Frenic 5000MS5, and mine has the option card as well. The option card is where the problem is. The Frenic manual gives you a wiring diagram which I had already matched up with the Centroid before I purchased it, I thought it would be a walk in the park, but then when I cam...

HI Marty, this is probably the only photo I have of the machine, I have thousands of photos but they're all specific component photos. I took this photo yesterday, as it currently sits. I have photos from when I bought it and got it delivered but the guarding is all removed etc, so this is the only ...

Hi Marty, I bought the M400, Oak, and conduit Kit. I'm in Mackay, Australia, in the whutsunday region. I Read the page and it said that if you order the M400 or the conduit kit (i ordered both) then you didn't need to order the cable, Otherwise I would have ordered it. Anyhow, it's done now. Fortuna...

Thanks Stephen, I really appreciate any help you can send. As I said, I will happily buy you a beer next time I'm down in Brizzy, and I'd love to take a look at your machine, maybe I can help in some way from my own experience. Marty: I lost 3 months of milling work because of my old controller play...
