Just got mine in this morning and finally a product that advertises to be plug and play that is actually plug and play. Other than having to wire my own plug (my choice) I had it up and running in less than 15 minutes.
Hello @ddsGarmin, we've published the inventory here in our kb: support.pwncnc.com/kb/article/406-air-compressor/ The compressor needs to supply 95psi regularly. You'll likely need to run it through a dryer because you don't want wet air going into the motor. After the dryer, it'll need a quick-change receiver since our ATC System ships with a quick change end on the supply hose provided.
To get an ATC spindle this small only water-cooled is available. Bonus is our water cooled ATC motors are metalworking 4-pole with ceramic bearings capable of carving mild steel.
Hello Johnd5542... that 4-pin is for the tool-setter. It's available on our site as part of purchasing that product. The ATC comes with the required 5-pin connector... so no worries there. The ATC uses the already installed 6-pin connector we asked Onefinity to add to their machines... and the 5-pin we include with full instructions and assist with installing if you need it.
@PwnCNC Thanks for the fast reply. Thats what I thought. So the ATC system comes with the tool setter, or just the connector? Im in the process of building my atc and I dont have a pwn tool setter. However, I did buy the Ez from 1F. Will that still work with Atc? My guess is no, or else you would have just used the 1f 2pin connector. Im new to cnc and theres not much info on the atc. Everything kind of assumes you are converting to atc, with prior knowledge. Im a complete noob. There was a lot to learn just to get setup, and a ton still left to learn, lol.
@@johnd5542 The tool setter is actually a separate accessory that isn't really required. You can certainly use their tool setter vs ours. We design accessories for a variety of CNC machine brands and made that one available for those folks with Masso controllers "not" on a Onefinity branded machine... however it can certainly be used on the Onefinity if you wish. Yeah... not much info because I think we're amoung the first to come out with a viable low-cost (compared to other way more expensive options) ATC for any brand cnc machine. Our goal is to share our knowledge and bring some pretty cool features to folks no matter the machine they own. There is most certainly a ton to learn... stick with it though. Once you find something you LOVE to make it gets exciting and it can really be a side-gig that makes you money; if you are enjoying it that's a bonus.
@PwnCNC Ok, makes sense. I figured the tool setter would come in handy in certain situations. Ya, it's been a bit challenging and sometimes a bit overwhelming. But I can say PwnCNC has made this endeavor much easier than other options available, while providing high quality gear. Not to mention the phenomenal customer service. As a small biz owner, I can really appreciate the effort you guys put forth to take care of your customers. A+
That's a dream upgrade right there!
Thanks Jeff that was very helpful

I must have missed a step somewhere. I plug the 6-pin connector into the slot labeled "PWN" on the VFD box, and where does the other end go?
Did you ever figure this out? I am in the same spot. I feel like I'm missing something obvious!
@oseanmc Yeah, it's never mentioned anywhere, but if you have a Masso controller there's a receptacle on the bottom back side that you plug it in.
@@builtbybittle Doh! Yep, it was obvious! I think I have been staring at a spaghetti mess of wire to long today.
Thanks for the info.
@@oseanmc I was in the same boat, glad I could help out!
Nice video. It helped me a bunch. For the PWM(white cable), where does that plug into? Thanks.
Great video Jeff!!
Could you elaborate on the air source hookup and requirements?

Why isn't their anoption for air cooled ATC spindle?

What was the 4 pin connector on the back of masso that you installed but didnt show? Is it required for atc system?

@@PwnCNC HI ,,, do we not need to use the 6-pin connector ??
Thanks for the great video!
Good example on how not to make electrical connections 11:32
