Hi
I have just bought a used mill that i consider converting to Centroid (acorn or acorn six)
It is a Style BM8 which is Dutch machine builder.
Based on Taiwan casting and spindle with Nidec control techniques AC Servodrives and motors. and a 20 tool tool changer
The control system today is a win98 based style's own control software, targeted conversational milling.
From what i can read from to the drive manual it supports :
analogue +/- 10v(which it runs today) ,
quadrature
Pulse direction.
But i can not find any information on the inputs (polarity, or if it's supported 24c or 5v signals)
also the spindle drive is +/-10V , but can these drives normaly accept 0-10V and then using cw/ccw inputs?
Possible retrofit Style mill

Re: Possible retrofit Style mill
yes sure:
this is the servodrive manual
https://www.nidec-netherlands.nl/media/ ... 015-08.pdf
spindle drive manual
https://www.nidec-netherlands.nl/media/ ... 002-11.pdf
Think i found the information on the spindle drive to comfirm 0-10v input (page 370 spindle manual)
