Just got Water cooled spindle + Inverter + Spindle clamp. So today i do wiring and add Potentiometer to Inverter and then test them to make sure everything work fine and correct wiring.
Item arrive ::
Unpack the package
Start wiring ::
Note :: For single phase power use “R” and “T” but for Three phase power use “R” and “S” , or “S” and “T” , both will work fine.
After finish wiring then test run ::
Note :: Before start run it VFD need to parameter setting.
- PD005 = 400 (Hz)
- PD004 = 400 (hz)
- PD003 = 400 (hz)
- PD008 = 220 (220volt)
- PD072 = 400 (hz)
- PD144 = 3000
This parameter need to set up before start run spindle. Other parameter see document.
After test , It work correctly and everything good so next i need to add potentionmeter to font panel of inverter , it already have socket for putting potentionmeter into it.
Done !!! lol

Finish build Z-Axis. More Picture see at my blog. iD2CNC.wordpress.com
I used cheap power drill that i have , it not accuracy and not precision but i can make it more precision and accuracy by process of drilling but some hole will have +- 0.2-0.5mm and how to make it still fit when mounting that was simple. OK how? if need to drill 3mm hole then just drill 3.3mm or 3.5mm hole then 0.3-0.5mm of hole will use for adjust aluminum plate when mounthing.

Inteteresting project. Build is progressing on nicely. Your english is fine. Curious what the cost of materials is versus the fully built CNC machines of similar size and capacity. I've always dreamed about having one of these for building kite boards, so would need a rather long bed, ie in the order of 1.7m, could never really justify the cost.
Regards,
Norman.

Thank you, For this machine above include water cooled spindle + inverter + aluminum profile table top , cost about 2,000$ but if need to save cost by using wood router replace water cooled spindle and replace aluminum table top by wood then cost of this machine about 1,400$.
But if need to build 4'x4' by using same design above , cost would be about 3,000$ or may be cheaper than 3,000$ , i think it should be about 2,500$ because it all same component but need more length aluminum profile and more length of ballscrew but other component still not change.
