A couple of questions about converting to Centroid
Posted: Thu Aug 11, 2022 6:22 pm
I’m reconfiguring my current DYI plasma cutter with the Centroid components as shown on their web
site.
I'm planning on using my existing Stepper Online DM542T stepper drivers (at 24VDC) and would like any info on how they perform with the Centroid components. I'd like to use then to save on cost. My plan is to wire them as shown in schematic R15033.r2. It's a different model number but the configuration seems to be the same. Any comments?
My assumption is that the 24V/5V power supplied is adequate to power the Acorn board, 4 DM542T stepper drivers and the relay board. Am I correct in this assumption? I have a separate 24 VDC power supply for the motor power and it looks like the RX and TX boards have their own 24 VDC power supply.
Are there any schematics that describe the physical characteristics of the 3 boards (dimensions, mounting hole placement, etc.)? Everything is on order, but I’d like to get a head start on the layout.
Any help would be appreciated,
Tom
