Any idea what size and pitch ballscrews you're looking for? I have one under a bench in my shop. It was the wrong one for my raptor, but maybe it's the right one for yours.

Any idea what size and pitch ballscrews you're looking for? I have one under a bench in my shop. It was the wrong one for my raptor, but maybe it's the right one for yours.
I have a fully functioning, 60x40 raptor that I may be willing to part ways with. Would include the steel stand, computer, Teknomotor spindle, and all the tooling that I currently have. Great...
Yes, sir.
Thanks for the suggestions, guys. I'll be trying to some of them out in the morning. I played around with the model a little bit tonight, and set it up with a roughing pass, and then z level finish...
Here you go. I had to zip them up to attach them. Also, there is two files, but they are both the same model. Just different actions in each, as I wanted to make sure that I could post process...
The model is at the other office, but I may be able to get it sent to me. I'll upload it as soon as I have it. Really appreciate the help.

No. I was simply using what I knew would work, which was the "pocketing" under 3 axis profiling and pocketing. I didn't want to venture too far out into something that I didn't quite understand. ...
I'm new to MadCAM and CNC in general, so go easy on me. I'm working on cutting a pocket for some inlay work, and am doing two passes to complete the work. One with a .125" endmill, and the final...
So that is from the feed rate being too slow? I was at 4586 rpm and 41.27 in/min I believe, when I made that cut. I tried halfing that feed and the molten lava pieces were twice as long.. Do I...
Well, I thought that everything was working great. The test cuts in my 6061 aluminum test piece were working out great. Tonight, I changed to the real work piece that I'll be using and started the...
This is what it was doing with the 1/2" drill mill:

Ended up getting the 1/2" countersink looking good by going with the following:
Material: 6061-T6 Aluminum...
The stub drill worked great with the standard speeds and feeds. I am trying to countersink with a 1/2" drill mill now though, and the same thing as the other drill mill. It really seems like...
I ended up with some hartel screw machine drills in bright. I'll keep the TiB coating in mind for the future. So when calcing the feeds and speeds for these drills that are coming in today, do I...
Ok, I tried just about everything that I could imagine, except using a coolant. I'm not quite setup for that yet, so I want to avoid the mess if at all possible. I tried using a peck every .125"...
I've already run into some issues with the .5" hole. I was trying to keep within the specs of what the manufacturer wanted for the sfm and feedrate for their drill mills, and that's why I used the...
I have some aluminum extrusions (t-slot table top slats for my cnc) that I need to drill, and counterbore. I want to do this using the cnc. I've purchased a 1/4" drill mill, and a 1/2" drill mill...
Hey Dan,
Is this posted anywhere that I can get it? Would love to check it out.
Thanks,
Jason
Here is my setup:
Mach3
Warp9 Ethernet Smoothstepper
Leadshine MX3660
Hitachi WJ200
Teknomotor 4147C
I have my spindle working using mach3 to control the speed via PWM to the MX3660 which...
I am brand new at this... In fact, I just ran my first bit of g-code about 20 minutes ago. :banana: I didn't break a bit, just burned up some wood! lol
Here is what I am doing: I am trying to...
PROBLEM SOLVED!
First of all, thanks to Jeff Alessi for letting me call and walking me through the trouble shooting on this.
Problem 1:
I had the pin in ports and pins set to 9, when it...
The only power that the econo-probe is getting is the 12vdc from the input terminals. I would guess that the commons are the same since the inputs are powered by the controller (MX3660)?
I'm in the final stages of setting up my machine and getting all dialed in. One of the last stages is setting up the probe for setting z at 0 and whatnot. I ended up going with the Wildhorse...
Ordered 25' of the IGUS CF-31 today. Definitely seems to be the best bang for the buck. Thanks for all the info, and help guys.

I guess that makes sense, since you would be breaking the shielding to have the connectors, defeating the purpose of having the shielding to begin with..

I've put in a request for an estimate on the Belden, I'm sure it is expensive though. I received a quote yesterday on a Trex-Onics Cable. It was $4.82 per...
Here is my setup:
Hitachi WJ200-022SF VFD
Automationdirect LR-23P0 Drive reactor
Teknomotor 4147C 2kw Spindle
The spindle will be controlled via Mach 3 and a Leadshine MX3660.
I've read...
Ok, the good.. the bad... and the ugly....
The good: The power supply is now working exactly how it's supposed to.
The bad: I had an idiot using the multimeter, and he didn't have the switch...
Just got this from Antek. You were right about the unregulated power on the 48V and the regulated on the 5v. I'm still confused on the use of the + and C instead of + and - though.

There is a terminal in the center of the 48v rectifiers terminal block that is marked with a C, which I assumed was common. What is so confusing to me, is that I keep thinking of DC current like a...
