Hi guys I am looking for a 2TB Hard Drive for my Synology 107+ I am not really bothered about noise as the drive is in my office - I stream media to my TV which is on the floor above.. I have seen a couple of drives though the spindle speed seems to be different, would I notice the difference between a 7200 RPM and a 5900 RPM The Hitachi seems like a good buy but I am ...

I just got the wiring in to my Roto-master motor type phase converter for my (1991) KM3P. As luck has it the legs were out of phase so the motor ran backwards... no big deal right, - Wrong! The speed adjustment motor started turning to set the spindle @ 2000rpm - going the wrong way and went way beyond the normal scale before it was shut down. Now I need to know how to get things ...

(Or "Spindle Upgrade: FAIL") Ever think carefully about doing something for a long time? And then finally spend the money to do it? And then get kicked squarely in the boys for your trouble? I'll put the bottom line at the top. For those of you with the series II controller/vfd, how is the speed accuracy? I.e., if you calibrated it at 500RPM, what's the speed at a commanded 1000RPM?...

Hello, This is my first post, hope someone has an idea!. I am running a Sherline cnc lathe with the Sherline control box and computer. I have installed Mach 3 as I found Linux Ubuntu a pain to set up. Everything is working OK but I would like to thread cut and need to control spindle speed from Mach3. Is this possible?. i.e. Does the Sherline controller have an input capabilityfor this. ...

was wondering if in the future, platter drives will come in a more 'storage only' design? the WD green drives are slow 5400rpm but still have quick transfer rates. i wonder if it would be cheaper if they made them spin as slow as laptop drives do (4200?). they'd be cooler, quieter and (maybe) need less power to run. they'd still have decent transfer rates too. might even be cheaper to make

I'm converting this machine to CNC and will use a VFD and new 3 phase motor for variable speed. There a several ways to skin that cat, resulting in a wide range of possible spindle speed ranges. I'm thinking that it would be nice to have the option of getting to around 3000 rpm, only for occasional use on small diameter parts. Can the bearings take this, with the understanding that most use ...

I'm looking for a milling spindle that can work in the range of up to 3000-5000 RPM. I've got a high-speed spindle installed on my DIY 8020 aluminum machine, and I find it somewhat limiing, for ex. I can't do any facemilling and I can't use any bits that are larger than, say, 1/4" (on metals, I mean). I've seen some people mention using servos as a spindle motors. Has anybody done that? How's ...

Swapping the phases to your spindle motor was the wrong thing to do. The motor that changes the speed is three phase also. This is why it goes off in the wrong direction to find it's speed. Put the phases to the spindle motor back as they were and swap two input phases to the machine.

Answered my own question - apparently the mill comes with two different spanner wrenches to fit the nut and the spacer on the top (back - whatever) of the head. As shown in the fignoggle link above: Also, the head doesn't come with a draw bar, so you'll have to make your own.
