Need Help! Contamination under black light on aluminum anodized

$
0
0
Hello,

Recently we recived a costumer complaint regarding contamination in an aluminum part that is anodized (we bought this part), this contamination was detected in an inspection under black light (UV).
We are having a hard time to find the root cause of this issue and I would like to know if anyone here have some expirence with this type of issues.
Until know we have identified some conditions that change in the current process of these pieces:

The contaminated pieces were finished using a sand blasting process. the normal process should be polishing.
Contamination can not be removed from the parts.
This part are covered to be protected with a blue film, one of the teories is that the contamination came from the adhesive of the blue film, this happened due the surface after the sand blasting is more abrasive and the adhesive of the film came into the porous crated by this process.
I don´t know if this sound logical to you guys I´m not an expert on this area but what we know is the pieces leaves our company in good conditions, we have several inspections to validate this conditons and we never detect this issue.


Attached is a picture from the issue that we have, I really apreciate your help to get information about sanding process, anodizing on aluminum and contamination.

Gecko G540 vs. KL-4030 drivers (and break out board)

$
0
0
Hi all,
I was looking at the 4 axis kits using 270oz/in motors.

This would be for a Sieg X2 conversion.

One kit has the Gecko G540 and the other has KL-4030 drivers and break out board.

I was wondering what the functional differences are between the two drivers?

Does the Gecko G540 actually do something more than the other drivers or is only a matter of quality ?
Are there functions that the G540 supports that the others don't?

Need Help! What's causing my mill to do this?

When I rapidly move my mill's toolhead up (z axis), it makes an awful groaning sound and eventually binds to a stop. Moving up slowly, or down, are no problem. The video below illustrates rapid up and down. I've oiled the ball screw and ways, but I still have the problem. What might be causing it? Thanks for any tips.

Is the Powermax 30xp ok to run on the Plasmacam?

If so, do I need a dedicated compressor for this system or can I use my regular Woodshop airlines/compressor?

Thanks!

cincinnati milacron and step up transformer

I'm not sure if this would be the right forum for my problem, I have 200 amp single phase coming into the building and have a 40 HP rotary phase converter, from that it goes into a step up transformer 240 to 480 25 KVA . First question is will the rotary phase converter handle the transformer? If it can then I'm having a problem with the phase converter itself. It's powering three other 240 v three phase mills (one at a time) with no issues. The transformer was tested on power for a day before it came here... I hope some one has a simple answer... Thanks

Need Help! Gcode file splitting

Is it possible to split the Gcode via the post processor and how do I do it? I am helping someone out who owns Artcam 2015 r2 but is finding some files are too large for his Chinese router when carving (1.5milllion lines). So I was hoping to split it into 3 files with 500k lines each.

I am more familiar with vectric post processor where its called tape splitting. Thanks in advance.

PID tuning waveform issues

$

I have been trying to tune my Gecko G320X drives for a while now and really need to get back after them. I have them tuned by ear currently and that is not nearly good enough to successfully run a program without having to babysit the machine and reset it all of the time. I am using Mach III and a PMDX-126 BOB. When I hook up to the test locations on the G320X and set either of my oscilloscopes to the same setting as in the Gecko setup/tuning video I get nowhere near the correct waveform out of any of my 3 drives. I have a Fluke meter with the O-scope function as well as a Tektronics unit. It looks like the signal I am getting is not what I'll call solid and I can't figure it out so I was hoping someone here could give me some guidance. The machine is a little different as the encoders are separate from the servos so I can't bench test it. Please give me some help as I think this is the last piece of my puzzle to get a good running NC machine.

Thanks

Need Help! HURCO Hawk 5M Control Pictures Needed

$

Good Day,
I recently purchased a HURCO Hawk 5M. It was running but the PO pulled 3 boards and had them repaired/cleanup. After getting them back, he had no time to re-install to run it. In comes me with the purchase. The PO is very reputable and I'm sure this will run. My issue is that I have no reference on which slot to insert the boards into and cables to hook them up inside the control box. Does anyone have a 5M that you could post pictures of the inside your control box for me so I can see where your boards are inserted?
Thank you,
JB

Need Help! Anilam 4200T

Hi there everyone

I work in a computer repair shop
One of our customers came in with an Anilam 4200T system (just the silver control box with the boards and hard drive in it)
and showed us a picture of the issue
The system is getting stuck during post when switched on, it detects the hard drive shows the model and that SMART is detected but disabled and then just sits there doing nothing.
None of the buttons on the cnc respond.

All I can do is get in to the BIOS with the use of a keyboard, I have reset the BIOS to defaults with optimised setttings, even tried cloning the hard drive and trying another hard drive, but this has not worked.

I do not have direct access to the cnc machine so any help that I can tell the owner of the machine would be helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Need Help! Yaskawa V1000 / Mach3 modbus connection

$

Hi there. I have just got a Yaskawa V1000 and as it can use rs485 decided to have a go at getting it running for more precise control and on screen feedback.

To be clear I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing, it's been a bit of a make it up as I go along sort of thing.

I started out following two YouTube guides for different inverters (Bosch EFC5610 and Hitachi WJ200) and using their manuals to compare and try and gleam the information I needed to set it up to mine. Where that fell down was I just couldn't figure out the VFD address values to put in the Address ModBus (Var). The manual says things like 0001H and as you will see on the link below I don't see how he came to 2, 36 and 38. I was also unsure about what types of input and output to use as both guides used different types for the same function.

I was also getting a CALL error on the VFD screen and the alarm led flashing up, and still am.

Then I found this guy had run the same VFD and posted his settings, so I copied them exactly and downloaded his brain and screen set.
http://www.cnczone.com/forums/commer...-software.html


I still have the run command configured to digital input, because I could figure out the address value to do it through modbus, and this works ok. Then frequency response to the VFD and current and rpm from the vfd to mach via modbus. None of this works in either direction.

My ModBus Configuration under Function Cfg's looks identical to his. ModBus run says no error on the com port.

I have checked and double checked all the relevant settings in Mach3 including ports and pins and also the parameters in the VFD and they are all correct. Again with the wiring (which is T/R+ to R+ and S+ / T/R- to R- and S- as per the manual) checked and double checked, there is no short between loose strands or anything and is correct. I also tried with S+ and S- disconnected.

I have dip switch S2 set to on but also tried it off just to see if it made a difference.

The baud rate set in mach3, in the com port settings in windows device manager and at the VFD are all matching. In fact I tried two different baud rates - 9600 and 38400.

The USB to serial driver is working ok according to windows device manager on the correct com port and with correct drivers.

I have even tried removing the reverse rotation prevention in the VFD (b1-04) and changing the run command type from FWD/REV to START/STOP in H5-12 and have tried both enabling and disabling RTS control in H5-07 and in Mach3 and every combination between them.

I seem to have no communication between the PC and the VFD via ModBus. The spindle still turns on and runs ok when I change the frequency reference in the VFD to accept analogue instead of serial, and this also removes the CALL error. In fact the CALL error only comes on the VFD when I change either b1-01 (frequency reference) or b1-02 (run command) to accept serial instead of digital/analogue.

So the digital run command works and DRV flashes but the frequency setting via modbus doesn't and there is also no feedback coming from the VFD to the PC.

I bought two different USB-serial converters just in case there were any compatibility or driver issues, but both are fine and I've tried using both to no avail.

I also have the VFD set to remote mode, it works absolutely fine operated by the control panel in local mode as well.

I cannot figure out why it's not working.
