Hooraaaaaay this poxy chinky spindle has finally started up and spinning and the problem was in the wiring now its running in reverse but that just needs a wire swapping over i am sure ?????? .

...
But now to swap the wires to get it running the right way .......any ideas please

What is the best speed to run this spindle at

Swap any two of the UVW leads to reverse the spindle.

Thanks for reporting back - it's useful for anyone with similar problems.

Speed?, that's the next learning curve for you - depends on cutter size, flutes, material you're cutting, feed rate etc.

They are notorious for being poor performers under 8k rpm.

One last thing was bugging me - is this a water cooled spindle or air cooled?

EDIT: Changed YUV to UVW - apologies - my job involves video systems and YUV was a Freudian slip of the tongue.

Hi Doddy
It is a water cooled spindle 1.5kw.
I only get freudian after a load of JD

Thank you Doddy for staying with this to help us and if you ever need any eurothane block or sheet let me know

Nice one Doddy! Make sure you have your Diff Phase corrected and Pic:Sync ratio at 70/30 before going to air!

Run VT!
