Yes, you would replace your manual forward/reverse switch with an output relay programmed SpinFwd and SpinRev
Look for schematic S15008

Factorymation.com TD series. Do you want spindle braking or can you live with coasting. They start at $200 for a 2hp single phase input TD200. TD200 can not do braking, TD400 can for about another $90 plus the cost of a brake. You can always adjust your own spindle speed until you decide what you wa...

That should work with a signal insulator, but I would replace the weak 2hp motor with a 2.6kw servo, JMC and Lichuan is working well. Easy to wire and lots more low end torque, or depending on the reduction rate of the belt drive same torque and more rpm. Uwe Hi Uwe, Can you post links to the sugge...

I have no idea why they would use such an odd VFD requiring 0-12VDC (cheap to manufacture) I personally would replace it with a standard VFD Otherwise, you could contact CNC4PC and Discuss using their C89 board. https://cnc4pc.com/c89-10vdc-analog-speed-control-board.html You don't state what the HP...

Nice work Uwe!

Really nice work!

Reading all of the above posts I feel comfortable with my intent on using the "Z" axis CL86T stepper servo wired as the Acorn schematic using the DB25 BoB as drawn. Then, wiring the 2 - CL57T stepper servos for my x & y drives as the schematic is drawn using the H2 header on the Acorn...

Nice work. Would love to see the control cabinet, console and some info about the machine. Perhaps some overall pictures of the machine.

Slow going but got proximity switches on all axes, X and Y home out correctly, but Z is homing out in the Z- direction, is there a way to Invert it? The axis otherwise is moving correctly. When you jog Z in the negative direction, is it moving in the negative direction? Please ALWAYS post a fresh r...
