[Emc-users] Power Supply. was Re: ini.fiiles (aaron Moore)

2008-05-28 Thread Daniel Kavanagh
Aaron,

  Try splitting the power supplies, one to x, one to y and z ummm,

  Z and side to side, other to the big heavy gantry alone.

  If it's also happening in Mach then it's prolly power supply.

  I looked up those power supplies, they are switch mode, as opposed to 
chunks of transformer. Copper and Iron are your friends.

  I tried a switching supply on my router and it acted crazy, worked on 
one axis at a time but on multi axis moves it would stutter and stall.

  Dan

  P.S. My first machine was a hell of a learning curve. I think I made 
every mistake possible.

or even watch a multimeter on the voltage when running a program, and see if
it's dropping.
