HI
NOOB warning
Just finished converting a Proxxon MF70 (really small mill) only took 3 years.
I have a Hobby CNC 4 AUPC REV 2 all axes set to Async and 1/8 step.
i run at 12V now (12Ah battery) which should be ok for testing right ?
Now my Japan Servo Co., Ltd. KP56QM2-001 is speced to 1.4A/ph and that works (on Z) when setting the vRef for this (1.4*0.18) but my Astrosyn Minebea 23LM-C352-08 is marked 1.3 amps on the motor but i need to crank it up to about 2.2 amps (vRef 0.398) to run.
OK it might work on a little lower but i winged it.
*why is this?
*is it safe
*should i multiply the A/ph and number of phases to see the correct Amp to use ?
*should i still be able to stop them easily by holding their shafts by my fingers?
