    Re: Box Wrench for Leveling Feet

    you sir, are amazing! the wrench is now up to 8.99 still cheaper than home depot's 28 bucks.SKU(s) 95494, 60707

    Re: Paxton Patterson CNC Mill Schematic

    I don't see why it matters to you which motor runs the Z. You probe the pins, and whichever axis moves when that pin is pulsed is which axis it is. It makes no difference what order they are in.

    Re: Paxton Patterson CNC Mill Schematic

    no, you change the wires on the back of the switch, you just open the cover. or change the active high/active low setting in the software. The control software in your case in the RasPi. The "Shield"...

    Re: Paxton Patterson CNC Mill Schematic

    This is an easy fix. A} To fix this in software change that pin from Active Low to Active High. or B} To change it in hardware look at the microswitch. it has 3 terminals. The bottom is common. The...

    Re: Paxton Patterson CNC Mill Schematic

    I've got most of it in my head, but i have a thread on here that lays it all out.

  7. Re: Need help to buy desktop cnc router for metal engraving!

    these machines comes in a variety of flavors. 400w, 800w or 2.2kw spindle. parallel port or USB motion controller.

    the usb 2.2kw is the machine you want.
  8. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    Just wanted to close this thread out. Dr. Dos was right on the money. The A06B-6087-H126 power supply unit dropped right in and worked like a charm. No other changes necessary. Been busy getting...
  9. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    Awesome news!

    Thanks!
  10. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    Will i need to make any parameter changes or will it just be plug and play with a higher Ampacity?
  11. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    Alright got it figured out. Power supply has 2 blown IGBT's.

    So the question now is can i replace my A06B-6087-H115 /B 63A with a A06B-6087-H126 /C 102A?
  12. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    Well **** balls my dudes. Disconnected the 3 big power lines between the 75a contactor and reactor. Fired the machine up.

    Pumps come on, everything seems to be doing its thing. Not blowing...
  13. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    I don't know why posting it here flips the pic sideways. But in this pic the bottom left corner {real life top left of cabinet} is the master disconnect switch. Top right of the pic is where power...
  14. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    no, there is no transformer between the mains and the machine.
  15. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    The reason i am chasing the "2 ohms" across the legs is because ohms law tells me that 2ohm coil on 220v source is going to pull 110amps. This is more than the plaque states for max amperage of the...
  16. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    Machine and shop are 220v.

    There is no mains transformer :)
  17. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    However i don't see how this would be the problem. Should it not be blowing the 5a breaker instead of the main breaker on the wall?

    I don't see how this transformer could pull enough current,...
  18. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    So i isolated the transformer and took an ohm reading across the terminals {not sure this means anything}. On what i believe to be the input side of the transformer there are two pairs of terminals...
  19. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    Now what I've discovered is that whatever has 2 ohms of resistance between the legs, is beneath this 5a breaker. If i take the reading at the top of this breaker it has 2 ohms, click it off, the...
  20. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    Ok plodding along. Here are some pics of the cabinet.

  21. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    I circled the two pairs of contacts where I'm getting the 2ohm reading at.

    My next question is what exactly is the main transformer of the machine? I will post pictures of the cabinet here...
  22. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    So I'm running around poking stuff with the meter today. What i notice is that these 4 contactors at the bottom of the cabinet. The two on the left have a resistance of 2ohms between L1 and L2...
  23. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    i can't measure current, it blows the breaker as soon as i try to power it up from the front panel, before i can make it around back. I'm also a one man show.

    Will have to ask around see if...
  24. Re: Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    The only "transformer" type thing i see is a line reactor that looks like one of the coils may be damaged. i attempted to test it with the meter, could not find any shorts to ground....

    Re: Fanuc 6m Manual reference return

    reach in and turn the ball screw. if the axis doesn't have a break on it, it will move easily.
  26. Femco Lathe w/Fanuc control blowing breakers at startup and idle.

    I have a femco durga 25e lathe with fanuc OT control.

    The machine was running fine, shut it down, came back a day later to fire it back up and it blows the breaker as soon as i hit the machine...
  27. Re: Wiring Fanuc control to Rotary Phase Converter. Femco Durga 25e {In over my head

    Which can you tell me about your cut off tool?

    I was looking at getting an Iscar style blade and holder like that, but it seems to me the tool holder covers the cam bolts that would tighten it...
  28. Re: Wiring Fanuc control to Rotary Phase Converter. Femco Durga 25e {In over my head

    Yes, i am vaguely aware of the "safety block", but i do not have anyone here to advise me what is wise to put in this line, learning by trial and error on this one I'm afraid.

    The "master tool"...
  29. Re: Wiring Fanuc control to Rotary Phase Converter. Femco Durga 25e {In over my head

    Chich, i am going to walk through your steps and mine to see if there are differences.

    I know right off the bat, i am not using the ".", for the most part my machine likes for me to give it coords...
  30. Re: Wiring Fanuc control to Rotary Phase Converter. Femco Durga 25e {In over my head

    The camera is in an underwater case. I don't think the microphone pics up much more than the sound of it being moved around.

    The video wasn't meant to be instructional, as I'm still not sure what...
