OK you install ClearPath integrated Servo so do you have to change the driver's which we saw on the earlier videos ?I'm interesting in your upgrades, I think if you manage the speed and sound from the servo still the sound from makita loud, unless you install water cooling spindle
Hi Franco, Great job, I ve been follwing your vlogs for a while coz am planing a similar project ( mach 3 +6HB250-118B+HB860H) . so why do you need a dedicated power supply for each drivers ..? If those drivers can run on 30-100VAC can I connect them to 230V AC (230/4 Steppers = 57 VAC roughly) Mains in series? Please advice.
Can you give us the model number of the Clearpath motor? I don't know how to compare torque rating of servo to stepper, thus not sure which clearpath model to pick. And yours work well enough with Workbee? What material do you usually cut?

You are correct. I only use one switch per axis to set the home position. The Centroid software uses "soft limits" to make sure you don't exceed the travel of the axis. With closed loop steppers or servos, this methods works great. I've used it on my Mill for quite some time and I have not had any issues.
@@FrancoCNC any reason you're homing on the y+ side of the axis? I'll be curious to see how the auto square works out for you as well. I was going to do a video on it but my video skills are a work in progress right now.
@@FrancoCNC you can do what I did and home at y - but set up the tool change position to y + maximum travel with g28 or one of the g30 locations and set up a macro on the MPG and or AUX button. Then you can use the tool change macro to park the machine instead of the park button. The only reason I mentioned it is because I initially had mine set up the way you do and it became a bit confusing being the opposite of what it should be. It will set your machine 0 at the wrong end y + and you will be dealing with - values for the y axis. Try it and you will see what I'm talking about.
a lot work, doing a great job! looking forward in your next few video's on wiring it up

Nice set, and construction !
but as for my opinion - servos are an overkill for that type of cnc.
I agree.
Hi,franco do you have a link for the enclosure and the cable track.thanks.
Keep up the good work.

Franco are you only using a limit on one side of the travel? Example the z axis, do you have just a switch on the bottom ie: z + direction?

@@ntlapparel I'm going to use Y plus so i can park the column on that side of the table. The router is going to double as a work bench.

Interested in the f360 file for the dust shoe. Thanks!

What is the dimensions of your table? You have the workbee 1010 i am assuming
Yes, it was the 1000x1000 model. On my setup, I was left with a working area of roughly 30"x 30"
hi, can you please leave a link for the motors and the drivers?
Hi. Look in the description of this video: ua-cam.com/video/NKUdPvWlMMQ/v-deo.html
where did you get the router mount?
eBay. Same people who sold the router kit.
