I have a lathe setup using Jons Universal PWM controller and DC brush Amps I want to set it up so the spindle can be used as an a axis
I was think of using the 4th servo port to control the spindle with one of his amps. the spindle has a 90v DC motor on it the spindle has a 500 count incremental AB index encoder on it that I'm going to attach to the 4th encoder input on the controller board I just a can't figure out how to connect the hal to the spindle controls then switch it back to A axis I want to be able to turn down the part then change the tool to drimal type cutter tool and cut a pattern into the peace with one gcode file Is this possible? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
