never thought wiring the control box would take so long lol
Well @Gary_Wilson when your layout and craftsmanship trump those of highly paid commercial electricians, the time is well spent!
Great bars and wiring.
I’ve been wondering though, at the cost of sounding dumb, what is the large circular object, can’t make it out.
@Brandon_Satterfield its the 60v 20a torroidal power supply then between that and the vfd is a 5v 30a supply there is also a 12v supply but that will have to be mounted on the side of the case or i can take it from the torroidal supply if i dont need more than an amp
Looks good tho! well worth the effort i say.
thank you
But this is so nice looking. I am drooling.
Looks very much like you have built a panel or two before? How did you segregate noisy cables from low voltage sensors? What voltage did you use for limit switches?
@Peter_Fouche looking at that picture I posted all the power cables are run on the right of the drivers and all the signal cables from the Bob are on the left (there is only about an inch or so of crossover). For the limit switches which are inductive sensors I’m thinking of using 12v as they’re rated at 6 - 36v also this is the first panel I have ever done but I have been researching and planning for about a year.
Your planning and research shows. Good luck with it!
Super clean, looks great!
What’s the correct term or name I should search for to find that white or grey block that you have labeled 5V or 60V?
@marmil those are din rail terminals and the orange stripe on them are 10 way terminal bridge to link them together
@marmil
They look like terminal blocks to me.
Thank you for the info.
@Gary_Wilson looks very nice and clever, 6 drivers?, where did you buy a terminal blocks din and plugs phoenix connectors? thanks
@Eugenio_Villaverde I got all the din rail stuff from RS Components in the uk. What are Phoenix connectors? 6 drivers for X, Y1, Y2, Z, A and a spare
@Gary_Wilson down of the drivers the connectors blue, gray and white with plugs in orange (i dont know what is the name of this joint…)
@Eugenio_Villaverde those are what we were discussing earlier the terminal blocks
Very neat and tidy. Nice work!
