Chinese AC Servo - MACH3 Setup (Vs. Stepper Motor)

How wire and set parameters on stepper motors
How to wire and setup AC servo
How to connect MACH3 for step/dir axis drive control

In this video I'll show how to setup AC Servo on MACH3 for axis drive. Some wiring of the servo drive, stepper drive (for compare purposes). I'll also do a quick compare how does a servo and stepper perform without load.

2:50 HELLO, SORRY FOR BOTHERING AND FOLLOWING YOUR CHANNEL FOR A LONG TIME BUT I AM BUILDING A NEW MACHINE AND NOW I WANTED TO INQUIRE IF EVERYTHING WAS CONNECTED CORRECTLY MY DOUBT IS I HAD TO SEND A SIGNAL TO THE ENABLE SO THAT MY SERVO WOULD WORK BUT I SEE THAT YOU CHANGE IT THE PARAMETER PN003 I THINK IT IS SO THAT I DON'T HAVE TO SEND IT A SIGNAL TO TURN ON BUT AS SOON AS IT TURNS ON IT ALREADY SENDS THE SIGNAL, WHAT I UNDERSTOOD IS CORRECT

Very good, great tutorial! I don't know if it's the friend who controls the language, if it is, it could release it to Portuguese. Thank you so much for taking your time and sharing your knowledge!

Hi, I wondered if you could possibly help please. I have a problem with my Chinese 6040 CNC router. The problem is on the Z stepper motor. It works fine until it comes to a slow curve in the project. Going straight up and down is working fine, but when it has to do a slow curve in the carving, it gives a loud grumble and continues cutting 1 or 2mm lower than it should be, leaving a step down in the project. I don't know much about the electrics of the CNC, so I have no idea what to do. Thank you for any help or advice you can give. Terry.

Thanks almost returned mine without this video!
Is the Pn098 to set it for the gearing that someone chooses? Say I wanted to gear the motors down 50% It would be 50 entered into there?

Hi GBWM, I have a question. Do you have to do the encoder settings in Mach 3 if you are using servo motors with a closed loop system for high accuracy?

[TrPrecisionMachining]

very very good video..thanks for your time

[OrangeCounty]

Thank you fort his vids. Do you know how I can switch between direction and torque control? I would like to change the torque using the -+10v input while it’s being controlled using location. Thanks!

Hello, the servo need cooling? i want to use to drive an spindle, thanks

[masiflohar]

Hello brother can you make a video xinje Ac servo motor use as a Spindle on using Mach3

Hi! Im building cnc milling machine, can i use servo 400w for XYZ axis? Enough strong?

[rickkubbenga]

Thanks for the video! How is the holding torque? It has no brake does it?

[sgicorporation]

Can we use stepper motors in industries in long term, are they accurate everytime?

[limitlessbuilds]

I have a question, hopefully you can help answer. I’m looking to build something to move a motorcycle shift linkage forward 1 inch, then return to center as fast as possible. It needs to do this in either direction. I would assume using a lead screw is best, but what motor would be best to use? Every time I try to search for servo motors, all I see is steppers. Maybe the stepper is better?
Would like the forward and return to be in the 50ms or under range

Hello. I have seen this video. I want to make some rebuilt of milling machine. Can you tell me which hardware have you used for connection between PC and servo drive? Thanks!

Dzięki za film. Użyłeś już może te serwa w jakimś projekcie? Jak się sprawują? Masz o nich jakiś wątek na jakimś forum, co by można było poczytać? Pozdrawiam!:)

Bro

Thoughts Please..!


I am really worried about the reliability and consistency of Mach3 when coupled with Industrial Grade AC Servos.!


What are the real benefits of dedicated CNC Controllers over Mach3? If any?
(Expensive alternatives like RichAuto, Weihong, Even Masso)

People say,
The Kernel Speed Mach3 Offers are insufficient for Servos..!
And as it is cheap,
USB Motion Controllers are highly inconsistent as there is a high chance of EMI penetration due to their weak control signal Voltage (5V)

I need reliable, fast, and consistent performance of servos, and even if not exactly the same I need the somewhat close performance of Industrial CNCs.

(I have an RNR USB Motion card)

From your experience and knowledge, Can We ensure consistent and fast performance of MACH3 with servos using that Cheap USB Motion card?
Even If the Speed is compromised a little bit, the consistency and reliability should nt be compromised..!

Any thoughts?

[mrmakinist]

Where did you buy the motors from. Do you have a link address?

[hienphan]

Can you share with me the parameters to calibrate the mach3?

[НиколаЙКотков-дм]

И где настройки? видел только подключение. Где нагрузка, ведь без нее ни как.

Tell me about the mate... Were are you from?
