Yep, in particular do not use the wizards, instant trouble.

In the end i made up my own custom screen set with just the functionality i needed.

Could have been entertaining ;)

Well, there's salutary lesson in checking things again and again....

Fitting the new PSU, drilled holes, mounted, went to check the connections and.......found what was the original fault !
...

Thats what i thought, i'll keep that idea as a final option. I think i am right that in this instance I would continue the earth connection through to the machine as well, for static and safety...

Nah, i looked inside the one i have and it has semiconductors bolted to the back case panel.

I could make an adaptor mount panel easily if the sizes work out, if not i'll have to drill some holes.

Ordered a unit on AliExpress from Cloudray, paid extra for DHL shipping, still cheaper than eBay ;)

Thanks, Lee,

I'll order a cloudray unit, its the same code but different mounting so holes to drill etc :(

I have opened it up, no visible signs of any fault, its just leaky i think, just...

Hi all

i have just moved my China Red/Black laser form work to home and its now blowing the RCDs at home, we only had MCB's at work and they were fine.

The PSU must be leaky so need a new one....

Nice, thanks for clarification ;)

I would probe the work piece each time unless running batches of same parts.

Tools are good to have in cam library it makes collision detection easy, simulation works as well, you will generally...

Yes its not really hard to learn, just that its so powerful, most users will likely only ever need to learn 10% of the functionality :)

I knew nothing about 3d and after about 3m of messing about...

Amazing build, has to be the heaviest Z axis I've seen yet.

I would go with a 600W psu for 4 x 4Nm motors

Yep, completely reeks of scam but with PayPal in between, nothing to lose really.

Wow, thats a price i cant resist, one on order!

I'll put it on the mill, if that lives more than a day i'll get one for the plasma cutter.

Only concern is the resistance touch panel, not as...

They are very good though ;)

Don't beat yourself up over it- probably someone that does not even know what it is. The videos are perfect - detailed, informative, light-hearted where needed and very clear.

I usually let them do it, its a bit of faffing about that i can do without for the sake of 3 or 4 quid, plus getting the grub screws as well :)

will be 10,000 i think - they call it "all edges" so it senses 2500 rising edges plus 2500 falling edges and then the same again on the quadrature output so 10,000

Sometimes known as Mic6 or Mic-6 ;)

3mm will be fine, the switches have no mass really so vibration will not be an issue.

If using R&P, yes spring load the pinion against the rack - this takes out 99% of the backlash, but also fit a stop to the motor/plate to stop it being able to disengage or jump the rack if...

Yes, output is directly related to input, that is a very high input.

If it were my supply i might unwind a couple of turns off the transformer secondary, but thats just me ;)

Not too many ways to fine tune the voltage really.

Maybe also look at an...

I would not bother with pre-charge, this supply is not big enough to need it, as long as the rectifier is big enough to take the inrush as well as a slow-blow fuse in the input it should work fine.
