Re: My new lathe

Really nice project! :D

Where in Sweden do you live? I live about 50km from Halmstad. Are the old parts for sale? I don´t have the same servo cards, but you might have some useful parts.

How much does the conversion cost?

Re: Cyclone TU150U Won't start up

Hello!

I haven´t used mine in a long time, and the last time one om my servos didn´t start so I´m pretty irritated on mine :oops:

It´s a computer that has to start, it´s good to have an external keyboard (a really old one with the giant round contact), that you can attach on the side where the ...

Re: USB Floppy emulator on my TU150U

I haven´t used the machine so much, so I can´t say it´s reliable solution. But it´s has worked the times I´ve been running the machine, maybe 5 times since this thread :oops:

Re: Denford cyclone TU150E Threading problem

Maybe it´s like on my TU150U, there is a possibility to adjust the "spindle override" on the operator panel which gives a higher or lower speed. In your case it could be possible that it´s set on 140% override.

USB Floppy emulator on my TU150U

I tested the Gotek USB Floppy Emulator on my Harrison TU150U today, and got it to work. Have not done any longtime test, but it work fine tonight when I was making some test on the lathe.

I tested different setups on different "floppys" on the USB-memory, and the 4th one with DOS 7.1 did work ...

Re: Harrison TU150U with Baldor servo

I think I got it to work decent now!! :D

To get rid of the bananas-movement, I changed
SLAVE_GAIN_X 1
to
SLAVE_GAIN_X 0.5

and when I measured the movement, 1mm became about 1.23mm IRL, so I tested to change:
SLAVE_MMCONVERT 500
to:
SLAVE_MMCONVERT 410
and got a decent result!!

Wihooooo!

Re: Harrison TU150U with Baldor servo

Actually, today I managed to get pretty far in my plan to get this machine to work again!
https://tipsarn.se/bilder/170506_01.jpg

But it´s a problem with PID-parameters or something like that. When using 1mm step, it goes bananas.

Re: Harrison TU150U with Baldor servo

Hello again!

I bought a used servomotor from Germany and today I got a kit with some drivers and smaller servomotors from Angel-Tech here on this forum!

I changed the motor a couple of weeks ago, and with my old "communication-card" in the drivers I got today, it looks like this! Really nice to ...

Re: Harrison TU150U with Baldor servo

I took the running servo motor and connected it on the "burning position" and started the system without putting AC-power to the drivers, and the light was still red on the servodrive. It should turn green...

This is the drivers, and it´s the on at the left that is bad.

Re: Harrison TU150U with Baldor servo

Thanks! :D

I found one of my old laptops, hade one with XP and diskdrive, so I created a startdiskette and put files from your Drivers2-folder and also TU150-files in the root of the diskette.

And boy, this was a nice view!
