Optimum Optimill MH50V CNC conversion

Excellent work. Could you share your configuration and the parameters of the spindle servo?

Thanks COFHAL, all the configuration for the spindle is included in this post:

When it comes to the servo drive for the spindle I haven't changed anything so far apart from the following settings:

- Pulses per revolution
- Encoder pulses per revolution
- Disable limit switches
- Increase max RPM

I haven't even ran the tuning function in the Delta software for it yet as I wanted to have the new spindle bearings in place and properly broken in first. So I'm sure there is a lot of potential for further tuning left.

I took the brave pill and tried rigid tapping for the first time this weekend. Even though it was nerve wracking to watch it worked like a charm.



I read through the documentation for rigid tapping on the LinuxCNC website but there was one thing I couldn't find. How do I do rigid tapping with chip breaking/pecking?
