Rotary 3-phase converter

February 28, 2018, 5:44 pm
$

I have a rotary phase converter that’s capable of running a total of 20 hp. According to the data plate, although it will handle a total of 20 hp, it will only start a maximum of a 7 1/2 hp three phase motor.
Y
My dilemma is I want to run a milling machine that has a 15 hp spindle motor.

Considering the 7 1/2 hp limitation, they have to be considering motors that start under load, like compressors or pumps, etc.

Since my spindle motor would never start under any load I’m wondering if I could use this particular rotary phase converter on the milling machine.

Does anyone have any experience relative to my question?

Thanks,
Chuck

Build Thread BrokenHorn 4'x4' Router

Hello Everyone,

Like others I've been lurking here for a couple months, but haven't posted anything. Last July I decided I wanted to build a router and this forum has been a wealth of information, so thank you to everyone for posting their experiences.

I'm going to be starting my build soon (hopefully this coming weekend), but before I do wanted to start this thread so that I could share what my intentions are to build. I've never worked with CNC equipment so any feedback is appreciated.

It's going to be a 4' x 4' router built using 3060 aluminum extrusion and steel tubing/plates. It'll start out with a wooden base (budget reasons), but that will get upgraded eventually. The idea was I wanted it to be expandable/modular while still retaining rigidity. I know those don't necessarily go hand-in-hand, but I'm trying to balance it. I did some load studies in Fusion 360 and it showed very little deflection, so we'll see...

Eventually, I want to expand it to an 8' x 4' machine and add a rotary axis. The bed frame (can't think of a better name...) that my spoil board will sit on can also be moved up or down 3" to provide extra Z-clearance if I want it or provide room for a vacuum table without sacrificing the current Z-height. The first image below is with it up high and the second image with it lowered.

The gantry supports are 3/8" steel, but made up of 4 separate pieces and welded throughout. The steel plates that make us the Z axis are 1/2" thick and all of it will be powder coated.

Here is a short list of components that I intend on using and some images of the 3D model I came up with. I've purchased some of the components, but it's not too late to make changes. I look forward to using this as a platform to share the build process. Please let me know if you have any feedback or recommended changes.

- CNCRP PRO Rack & Pinion components for X & Y Axis
- 1605 Ballscrew for Z Axis
- 465oz (6A) NEMA 34 Stepper Motors
- 48V Power Supply
- Masso Controller
- TBI-TRH20 Linear Guides
- 2.2kW air cooled spindle and VFD

Newbie Blender, Rhino, Aspire or Fusion 360 for guitar design and milling?

Have been working with Fusion 360 for about 6 months and have milled a few guitar bodies both semi-hollow and solid and pickguards, done a little engraving - but making necks is proving to be rather difficult. Just wondering if any of the other programs are a tad easier to learn? After all, not interested in rendering or making models but real world guitars.

Morbidelli Old Machine Expert help needed

Dear Friends,


Hope you are all well.

I am trying to help a friend with his morbidelli NUM 1040 Problem.

I am not experienced in CNC machines but in IT.

Comparing to other forums, I see here a lot of request for help but no responses.

So I thought to open this thread to ask for contact of forum members which are experts in Morbidelli machines.

For sure All we are busy with our daily job so no body should expect free help for support but at least to be cheaper than Official support or free at least for a user guide.

Hope this will help other members also

Thank you in advance for your understanding and Help

I have a Baleigh 3 axis router that I believe I might need a new stepper motor. The motor has no name on it but has this type number, 85BYGH450B-060-43. I cannot find a motor with this exact number but I have found some that are
85BYGH450B-06. Does anybody know if this is the same motor?

Hi Everybody,
Do you have any idea from where can I obtain the Monitor.exe and Delide1.exe programs to connect a PC to Deltadrive units. I've been searched on the net but unfortunately I didn't found anything.
I have 4 Deltadrive units with the same symptoms and I would like to see what is the problems with them. LED 4 red (Rap halt) is on, LED 2 green (speed =0) is on, LED 6 green(controller ready) is on, LED 3 green(address = numberof blinks) is blinking (which is normal);
Thank you in advance.

CNC Build Advice, Motors and motion parts

Hey all,

Looking for some advice on my upcoming cnc build because I just cant decide on so many things!

What i do know....
My aim is to build 1000x1500, ill buy the frame and support structure in that stock length, build area will end up smaller. Z-axis i dont have a set height in mind.
Looking to cut a bit of everything, mdf, perspex, aluminium.
Going to buy a 2.2kw watercooled spindle.

I cant decide on what to use for motion. Eg. SR20 linear rails on top of aluminium tube frame, or linear slides, rack and pinion, ball screws.
It's really quite confusing.

I dont't want to build anything rediculously cheap, but i also dont want to be unhappy with the results.

I was looking at 425oz nema 23s, but should i go for nema 34s?

Any advice would be great as im not sure what to do.

Thanks heaps

I have version 30 and my post processor is not posting a G43 code or a H number for my tool length offsets . I opened up the post processor and on line 14 and line 45 it shows the G43 in there on those lines. I just got Version 30 coming from version 26 so is there something I need to do different so the G43 and my H number will show up in my post. Thanks in advance for any info. I have googeled and searched how to fix the problem with out any luck.

so i was finally able to convince my boss to buy a compression bit, its a whiteside solid carbide compression bit, 1/4 cut 1/4 shank, can compression bits be plunged into the cut like the other bits, i have seen other posts about ramping into the cut and im wondering if that is something i have to worry about with a compression bit, i would like to avoid any potential failures if possible as this is my first time using a compression bit, im running a kongsberg xn and have always plunged into my cuts without any problem

im using the compression bit to cut 4" coasters out of 6mm plywood and the current settings i have for this are
rpm - 15,000
ipm - 125

Once our engraver is turned on during the system reset, the laser moves to the top right corner (pictured) and hits both the back and the side rail. I have attempted to replace the limit senors, but to no avail. Not sure if it was a poor installation or a parameter issue or what. If you have any guidance please let me know. Thanks!
