CNC Mill

I convereted a PM-30MV Variable speed milling machine to a LinuxCNC controlled machine.

Overview

Installed CNC lead screws from Arizona CNC, two 4.8Nm steppers on the X & Y, and a 12Nm stepper on the Z. Control is programmed in LinuxCNC talking over ethernet to a Mesa 7i76e inside a custom control cabinet. It is currently programmed/wired with a MPG, touch probe, and tool offset.

Currently I do not have the spindle control wired into the Mesa board, but it isn’t really a problem at the moment.
