Thanks Guys.
Johannes / Gerhard
The electronic controller is a commercially available unit for the control of the stepper motor - It's a "Parker Digiplan PK2" - effectively a complete controller for a single stepper. Mains input 230VAC - switch for direction - Potentiometer for speed (can use 2 speed pots if needed) and a pushbutton to make it go. I found a PDF on the web for the connections and configuration.

I didnt install limit switches as I need to keep the pushbutton depressed in order for the motor to drive (sort of like a dead mans switch).

A bit off a lash-up made during a weekend, I will tidy it up when I get a chance (Yeah - Right!)

Regards

Darren:

Hi Sean  :wave:



Sorry for the late and short hello.... I'm playing catchup still!


I like the neat mod on your mill (same model as Stews I think?)  I'm sure he will have a go at that eventually?



Right, 8 more to go!!




See you around the forum  :thumbup:
