Yeah that HF start can definitely cause issues. Blocking some of the directional RF emissions with an appropriately-sized grounded mesh screen...
I mean... If you get it 220V, a 1.5kW ER20 isn't hard to find. Either underpowered from a step-up VFD or run on 240V (when the others aren't doing...
That technically gives you a horizontal mill, and is fine, as long as your vertical axis motors can handle the substantial additional stress-...
You're overthinking it, I think. Signals go to the same places as they ordinarily would. Nothing changes except you have a bunch of them in...
Makes me wonder about that breaker... You sure it's actually good? Yeah, looks like they use, essentially, the 1960s US standard. I don't see a...
Nothing technically preventing you from doing it, it's an easy technical project. Could even use grbl, there's no major software power required....
800W is about 6-7A. Which, multiplied by 2.25 is right at around 15A. An extra 2.5A isn't gonna work on that circuit, in theory. Maybe you just...
Yeah, exactly. I think the +30% I quoted was simply idle load in the compressor-based example I saw a few months back, your spec sheet calculation...
Of course, UGS. I thought there were at least two more than people have mentioned in passing at some point, but I never keep up with whether...
BlackBox is grbl-based. It'll work with any grbl1.1-compatible g-code sender. OBCONTROL is a good simple option, bCNC is great for more advanced...
Underpowering the VFD is Generally Considered Not Great, yeah. In an ideal world you want a VFD with twice the rated power as your motor to cope...
If it helps, https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B073WWPPWG/ are the most reasonably priced ones that I've found to have consistently the best...
Addendum: Played some more with Fusion, it'll actually let you manually pull in the linking moves. If you pull them in by half the diameter of...
Could one of the VFD cables be acting as the antenna instead? Either your spindle cable or injected noise into your mains cable. I'd try flex...
Just glanced through the code again. I see what it's doing. Fusion is thinking that your machine travel exceeds your part dimensions (which is...
Try getting rid of the "select x and y" thing, leave it as "model orientation" and just select your G54 WCS on the same corner as you have it, see...

Depends what your machine is. I would doubt that most of these cantilevered, plastic-wheeled extrusion machines have the rigidity to deal with the...
BlackBox is, simplified, an Arduino and some stepper drivers in a box, so you communicate the same way you would with any other Arduino system,...
Not more expensive for the same power level, generally speaking (it can be close sometimes, particularly with the DYN2s), though slightly more...
