Some more progress - I love work like this! 😊

Next Steps:

- Perform the initial controller test.
- Wire the stepper drivers...

Setup Details:

Running the software on an HP Core i5 vPRO 10th gen (32GB memory) with a 21" ASUS touch screen.

It looks different from the wireing diagrams and the power supply images on the site

I`m in Europe running 220v

Some progress – stepper driver power is OK.

Currently working on the emergency-stop setup.

From the tracking information, it seems like my controller will arrive tomorrow.

While I wait for the Acorn controller, I am using the time to work on the rest of the components in the control cabinet - I have mounted the rest of the components, but haven't started the wiring yet.

This is a project I started several years ago. The project has stalled multiple times due to other projects taking priority. Now, I have decided to finally get this machine up and running, and in that context, I have chosen to use a Centroid Acorn controller.

I like to build things myself and learn ...
