800w spindle - noise & controlling remotely

[HankMcSpank]

Hmm, that's annoying as I just deleted the original so it'll have to stay like that. In the rest of the video I put the radio on again to demonstrate how you can't hear it with the old spindle running and also commented that it's all a bit insignificant compared to the noise generated when cutting unless perhaps what you're cutting uses very small/light cuts.

No worries you went above & beyond the call of duty - pont taken about the noise of the actual cutting itself, but for me it's mainly gonna be just 0.1mm deep into FR4! (so the noise of the spindle is likely to be the main contributing factor wrt strained man/wife relationships!)

So, something arrived in the post today, from Italy ...



...yay!

About £120 delivered (thanks for the heads up silyavski).

Sure, I can buy cheaper if I go the Chinese path, but I've had some horrific experiences with chinese electronics over the past couple of years (TB6560 anyone?), so I decided to pony up the extra forty quid which will hopefully save me some grief!

Great so is it running yet.? . . . . If not why not. . . . . .Think you'll like it.!!

A bit more heads up:

The Speed and corresponding frequencies in HZ, measured carefully with a device, you r can be slightly different but not so much. Open it in new window to see it better and enlarge it with "control" + "+" , or PM if you can not read it:





The typical connection / check well the manual/

cables from left to right
- trip ,
- PWM control,
- ??? i forgot , not so sure, but it was enable to the BOB, in case of power loss it stops everything/

Looks like section 6.18.3 shows how to configure the display to show motor speed.

Unfortunately I'm not going to get a chance to wire it up for a little while yet (probably some time over the weekend)....got to think this one through & decide just how 'integrated' (wiring wise, remote control, speed control etc) I want to make it for my present or predicted method of working.

I'm figuring most folks have their VFD actually mounted near the machine?

The non-working machine I bought had its VFD tucked away in the 'enclosed' control box (well that is, before the VFD stopped working & they removed it!)

I prefer to have it near machine so can see the Amp's it's pulling while cutting. I set the RPM then display Amps and just have Start/Stop under machine control.
