Got the front control display back from laser cutting and did a test fit of monitor and keyboard before sending it off to powder coating.
will have more update on progress by this weekend.
Removed old components and labelled the wires. plan is once the display unit comes back from powder coating will start off with Computer unit & Software then all servo motors test before connecting them to Allin1DC.
My this week progress. didn't get much time on this, finally at the stage of power up. Still have few more checks.
will take more image of last 2 days work over the weekend.
The estop turned out too small so I have swapped it to the normal size.
Tried my best to keep wiring tidy as best as I can.
Couldn't wait to cut some chips, 1st video without fine DRO adjustments 2nd video after tuning the motors and shows high range to low range gear change before performing ATC orientation.
last few weeks I have learnt a lot, how to edit PLC programme and making macro files. its was intimidating at 1st then after researching and watch Centroid YouTube channel it all made sense and you will be surprise how much information is available on this forum which you can use the use the basic and adjust to your requirements.
I had to create macro and logic for Gear change, Red/green beacon light, cycle start/ feed hold external buttons. Aux button for chip conveyor and Orient solenoid control macro.
will be busy next few weeks with other jobs but would like to fine tune the plc logic or macro's for a quicker gear change and speed up the tool change process.
Thank you all for the help you guys gave in my other posts.
