The second is YAM CK-1a control fanuc O-T year 1991.
Machines work.
They do not have electrical documentation.
Maybe someone owns such a machine?

Need Help! Spindle will not turn on Lagunmatic 310 with Delta 20
I recently acquired a Lagunmatic 310 with a Dynapath Delta 20 controls. I am brand new to programming any CNC. I am going through the machine to get it ready to run and from this point everything seems to be in working order except that I cannot get the spindle to come on. When I manually turn the spindle on nothing happens. I can manually adjust the spindle speed knob (making sure its not set to 0 or the highest limit) and still the spindle will not turn on.
I am getting no faults and the machine is not in E-Stop and again I am getting no faults and I can hear the E-Stop brake in the spindle release when I press the machine on button.
With the manual spindle switch in the on position and the manual spindle speed knob set to 1/2 way, when I home the machine, at the bottom right hand corner of this screen, the spindle speed reads:S0000 (I may have added an extra 0 or need to add another one as I am doing this from memory from earlier today). Once the machine homes, while in this screen, if the spindle is manually on, off and the speed manually adjusted, no matter any of these conditions I still get the same Spindle Speed reading of S0000.
The machine has a newer Yaskawa VFD (I am assuming this is running the spindle speed) and it appears that there is no signal going in or out of the VFD (once again I am a total beginner at VFDs).
I have also tested power to the spindle when I turn it on and I am getting no power at the leads at the top of the machine on the spindle itself. I also have the manual speed lever on the top right hand side of the machine set to high (the lever forward) and have tested the roller plunger switch for the speed selection as it is not stuck reading low speed.
The spindle oiler is full of oil (however I have not changed the oil as it is the same oil that was in the machine when I got it.
Is there a way to turn the spindle on through the controls?
Is there anything else I should be checking?
Thanks in advance for the help!

A newbie question, cutting art in plywood
Hi
I am new to CNC so might be using the wrong terminology, but learning quickly....
I want to cut out a pattern in thin plywood (attached below)
What's the best practice to keep the piece on the working surface, so it will not move?
If the frame will be cut out firstly then the whole piece will move

ISEL 4030 CPM Machine - SolidWorks/SolidCam MSc student in need of some help!
Hi all.
Firstly, if you're reading this - thank you for taking the time to have a look at my thread.
I am a fresh MSc Product Design graduate with a few years' experience with SolidWorks and various machines, however am COMPLETELY new to using a CNC. A few months ago I was given the opportunity to purchase and ISEL 4030 CPM machine, and took up the offer.
I have the CNC successfully running with CAD parts modelled in SolidWorks - exported as STLs, toolpaths created in DeskProto, and read on-screen with KAY.
I've managed to CNC a few pieces so far, however am struggling with the CAD/CAM transition from part to toolpaths readable for the ISEL 4030.
I am looking to upgrade from DeskProto as I have found it to be incredibly limited in relation to various capabilities such as part feature recognition (eg. lacking the option to select specific faces etc. to mill), and well as its machining strategies.
I have a copy of SolidCam and Fusion 360.
However:
- SolidCam: I am struggling to add the ISEL 4030 to the CAM Machine library. Is it possible to enter the machine in or have SolidCams directory search & source from an ISEL 4030 file with machine parameters that I can download? Does the 4030 need its own parameters put into SolidCam for it to work? Do I just plug & play by creating toolpaths in whatever machine is selected? Is there a universal setting that i'm unaware of as a newbie - and in actual fact it should be fine?
- Fusion 360: I have briefly read online that there is compatibility with the 4030 to Fusion, however I've only used the CAD software a handful of times vs years with SolidWorks (although am willing to use Fusion if it is compatible/workable with the 4030 CNC).
Summary:
I am entirely willing to take suggestions on what to do, what software's to go with.. I would really appreciate any guidance/advice, as as I have mentioned i'm new to this machine.
Overall i'm just looking to ditch DeskProto to find a software that will create toolpaths from a part/.stl that the 4030/KAY will read
(I'm looking to CNC small pieces from various woods sized <300 x 250 x 50).
Thank you in advance its greatly appreciated!

fiber laser engraver newbee
I an a gunsmith in New Mexico and am researching American made laser engravers and have narrowed the search to two companies with 20 Watt galvo lasers. LaserStar in California and TYKMA Electrox sold by Inovative cutting Systems in AZ. Both are in the budget range of under 30K. Is 30 Watt that much faster and deeper?

Need Help! Isel with mach3
Hi Everyone
I am new to this whole CNC world with my only previous experience being secondary school.
I recently acquired a Isel cpm2018, after a bit of faffing, computer buying and head scratching I have managed to get the machine to move with the trial version of Kay.
I have already put more money into this endeavour than any sensible student would ever do so therefore I am not super keen on purchasing the full version of Kay.
I do however have an old copy of Mach3 that a friend gave me...
So after looking through what seems like thousands of forum threads, I am struggling to see if it is even possible to use Mach for my machine. I have spent enough hours staring at the ‘ports and pins’ section on Mach3 scratching my head with the limited information from Isel.
The only other thing is that I do not want to mess with new motors, drivers, breakout boards etc.
So my questions to anyone out there are...
Do you have an Isel machine?
Does it run?
What do you run it on?
If you have switched to mach3, how did you achieve that?
Any information would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks

Selling product to Home Depot
Does anyone have any experience with selling product to Home Depot. I heard they are very good testing new product, in local stores first and then if it sells well, that store manager will have the know how to try and get it into different regions. Hoping others have recommendations for attempting this process. Chad

Building CNC Control Panels to Comply with NEC and NFPA 79
There has been some discussion on here about power sources, grounding and wiring control panels. NEC Section 670 (675) covers the Industrial Machine area pretty well, also the Code requirements for Grounding and wire sizing also applies to any panel built.
NFPA 79 is a guideline for panel builders and its not mandatory except to comply with OSHA.
This is a good place to start with NFPA 79, unless you want to purchase the 2018 Edition which is $65.

Motor stops under load
I have a General 40-915x cnc router that I got a few years ago and used to use regularly. General never really made their way into the CNC market - I have one of the few out there. It's a very entry level machine but it's worked fine for me up till now. I haven't used it in about a year and went out today to do some work on it. For some reason the router motor stops turning as soon as the bit is under load. I have to slow down the jog speed to the slowest and take ridiculously light cuts to keep it from shutting down.
To recreate this I've taken a known good file, opened it, then just turned the spindle motor on. If I grab the spinning bit (the shaft above the cutting area of a 1/4" straight bit) with a needlenose plier and apply even the slightest pressure the motor will stop.
I understand that these motors will shut down if you overload them but I don't know how overload is sensed or how to determine where the problem is.
The motor in it says Madeson BLDC-55 115VAC 21,000 RPM motor from World Gaudih Industry Co. Ltd.
Any advice on how to troubleshoot would be much appreciated.
