Ah Les just in time for me to test. I recently moved off the grid and now use a generator to run my machines. The "soft start" will help a lot. My lathe gearbox spindle component is not all that successful either. I am about to upgrade all my machines to the latest LCNC as well.

Subject: [Emc-developers] Another spindle + gearbox component

Another one from the vault...

This component will control a spindle with adjustable acceleration and deceleration. It is designed for use with non-servo spindle drives that have separate fwd/reverse inputs, such as DC drives and inverters. If a spindle encoder is available it is can tailor the acceleration and deceleration to the spindle load. If not the spindle speed is simulated. The component allows for gearboxes with up to 16 gears. Each gear has individual control of speeds, acceleration, driver gain and direction.

I originally wrote this for my lathe as it makes the lights in my workshop dim if it starts up at full acceleration.
