Thread: Ideas for an upgrade build
-
24-04-2023 #1
Hi everyone I've just purchased one of these (https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid...00063881355248) and it needs upgrading to Mach3/4 i have a few new but never used parts lay around from another build that didn't happen, eg Ethernet smoothstepper, also a PLC4x-G2 breakout board and 3 x Leadshine EM806. Was just wondering should i use these parts or start again? the machine has (just roughly measured) 4 start 12mm or 1/2" pitch screws on X and Y which seem a bit coarse so not sure what motors to go with. at the moment they are Nema 23 bolt pitch. I will be mainly machining oak and the odd piece of aluminium. i dont have the machine in my hand at the moment its in storage till i sell some stuff to make room so the build will be over the next few months.
just looking for ideas for my shopping list.
any ideas would be appreciated........Many thanks Daz.
