  • Your 2.2kw spindle w/inverter is out of stock for 110v, do you anticipate on offering these soon?

    We may deprecate these units as we had too many issues with them.

  • When will the 2.2kw 110v inverter be in stock?

    It's actually difficult to say when we will get our 2.2kW 110v VFDs (Variable Frequency Drives) in stock. The problem of predicting inventory stock with fluctuating sales is a challenge, especially at the price we offer. Please consider the 220v VFD, even if a 220 outlet is needed to be installed. We have found that the 220v VFD units performance to be better than the 110v VFD units.

  • What's the cure for 110 volt pumps (air and water) and a 110volt laser power supply, in a Blacktooth Kit sent to Australia, where 240 volts is pleasingly normal. The fan and other power supply are 220 volts.

    If your country requires 220 volt peripherals (water pump or air pump) for the blackTooth laser system, then we will either send the 220/240 volt equivalents, or we will have them drop shipped from another location in your country, or a country with compatible power requirements.

  • What would I need to purchase to increase the Z axis stepper motor up one size from the one that comes with the Blacktoe 4.1 with computer? I can't get Patrick to answer e-mails, so I'll try here.

    Thanks for the question. The blackToe z-axis motor is a NEMA 24 425 oz-in stepping motor and the next step up is a NEMA 34 651 oz-in motor located here: https://buildyourcnc.com/item/electronicsAndMotors-nema34-651ozin To make it work on the blackToe CNC machine, you would need to fabricate a new mount and the top bearing mount, or request us to fabricate it for you by calling the office. Curious, why the need to increase the size? If the motor is having a difficult time, there may be a deeper mechanical issue at play. One issue you may have is that the bearings are needing shim washers to separate the inner and outer races. If the two races are rubbing against the coupling or collar, the bearing may be difficult to turn under the weight of the assembly. If there is too much friction between the anti-backlash nut and the lead screw, you can add some 2-in-1 oil, or other similar lubricant. Thank you for using our Customer Service Live. Patrick often answers these questions. We prefer this system over email as these questions will benefit others. If you have additional questions or need more explanation relating to this question, please add to this answer. User response: I have added the shim washer between the bearing and coupling and have always used a light oil on the lead screw. I halved the acceleration on the Z-axis. Then I re-ran a topo that took two hours on the finish pass. No change in my results - the Z-axis slowly dropped until when the program finished and everything went back to the start point, the Z axis was lower by 0.378 inches than when it started at 0.800 above the surface. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Maybe I need more shim washers in the assembly between all the bearing surfaces? buildyourcnc response: Before you add a larger motor, check these first: 1. take the motor off by remove only the motor screws and removing the motor as well as the coupling half that is secured to the motor shaft. 2. Turn the lead screw by hand. This will still be connected to the z-axis assembly by the anti-backlash nut, so you will feel the resistance in the upward motion of the z-axis. Does it feel relatively easy to turn, or very difficult? 3. If the resistance is relatively normal with respect to gravity and normal friction between the anti-backlash nut and the screw, then you may want to half the velocity as well on the z-axis motor tuning, and even reduce the acceleration a bit more. Doing topographical layouts should not require fast z-axis motor travel. Be careful not to lower the z-axis acceleration if you are using constant velocity as this can make the topo "too smooth" where there may be features such as cliffs present. If you need to lower acceleration drastically, then use exact stop rather than constant velocity. Another gotcha that may be causing this phenomenon is motor cable/wire chafing. We had this same issue crop up where two wires were shorting only at a specific position because the wires moved just enough to cause these wires to connect. This was caused by a zip tie. Zip ties have a very sharp edge that can cut the insulation of the wire. A hint of this problem is if this phenomenon is only present after working successfully with the machine for a greater period of time. Use response: I bought a new lead screw, bearings, antibacklash nut, and shim washers (WHICH NEED TO BE IN YOUR ONLINE CATALOG) and installed them. (Like another commentor on this site, my lead screw wouldn't go through the bearings. Simple solution was to chuck it into my drill press and 400 grit smooth it until a snug fit was had. Lowest RPM.) Anyhow, I ran another Topo yesterday and got the same results. The wires are not frayed, the acceleration has been halved, the speed reduced to a crawl. When testing manually, twisting the Z axis up was very hard to do compared to lowering it. I have thought about a counterbalance of some type, but that introduces lots of other problems. Anything you can thing of will certainly help. I can send pictures, etc. Thanks! Buildyourcnc response What router/spindle do you have installed? User response: The one you sold me - 110 V, 1.5KW water cooled. User response: This problem of the z axis drift has been evident since I first started using the machine a couple of years ago. Lithophanes, stipples, topographic and other heavy z axis users have been particularly bad. It is to the point that I am turning away opportunities for lack of capability. Buildyourcnc response: I think all options may be exhausted. We will design a new mount that holds a large motor. Please give us a call so we can arrange to send that out to you. We just determined that the existing mount need to be adjusted by about one millimeter for the main mounting hoes for the larger NEMA 34 motor to fit. The overall mount will look the same but the outside hole spacing will be adjusted by a very small amount to match the larger motor mounting holes. This new adjustment will be included with all new machines. We will send you the new mount (consisting of two structural pieces) and the longer screws that will be needed to extend to fit the motor frame thickness. Additional Information: Additional Information: They didn't send the longer screws, nor the new required coupling, but I finally got it together and it works just fine. It returns to precise Z zero every time. But the motor runs pretty hot because I think it should be run at a higher voltage than the current power supply provides. Any new sales of Blacktoe 4.1 should include this modification. Cheers.

  • What would be your recommendation for "power supply 2 (24vdc)" connecting to USB motion card? Are there any videos explaining it's connection to the relay coil? (not quite sure what relay coil is). How do I connect the outputs on the Mach3 USB motion card?

    A 24V connection to the USB motion card is only needed if you are using limit switches (inputs), powering the spindle/VFD speed and direction, and for the outputs, for powering other devices (mist, coolant, etc.). If you are using a VFD (Variable Frequency Drive, also called Inverter) for a spindle, they typically have a 24V out terminal that can be used with our USB motion card. If you are not using a spindle/VFD (we highly recommend one), then you will need to purchase a 24v power supply to power that side of the board. The outputs mentioned above are to connect to external devices and will require a relay (a mechanical switch that is controlled by a digital signal). This mechanical switch can turn on a device like coolant and mist, or even a router, if you are using one. A relay is required to turn on these devices because the devices are typically higher voltage, like mains (110v or 220v). So, a relay can turn on or off a high voltage device with a lower voltage (24v) signal.

  • what size circuit breaker should I use with the 2.2KW VFD?

    The 2.2kW spindle has a power rating of 2.2kW or 2200 watts. If the VFD AC voltage input is rated for 220 volts, then 2200 watts / 220 volts is 10 amps, so a 15 or 20 amp breaker will work. If the VFD AC voltage input is rated for 110 volts, then 2200 watts / 110 volts is 20 amps, so a 25 or 30 amp breaker will work. Additional Information: Additional Information:

  • What is the Greenbull average power consumption in conjunction with 2.2KW spindle?

    You can determine you overall CNC machine current consumption be adding your spindle power plus your CNC motion power and the power that your computer requires. the formula to understand the current of each component is watts = volts x current, or W = V * I, or with some algebra, Current (I) = Watts (W) / Volts (V) For example: Spindle: The 2.2 kW = 2200 watts and you can find the current by taking the input voltage of 220 volt and get the current using the above formula: 2200 W / 220 V = 10 A (Amps) CNC motion electronics: The power supply that comes with our machines is generally 8.8 A Computer: The computer that you use to control the CNC machine will have a specific wattage. Let's say the watts is 500: 500 W / 110 V = 4.5 A Add them up: 10 A + 8.8 A + 4.5 A = 23.3 Amps

  • What are the power requirements for the Blackfoot setup? (https://www.buildyourcnc.com/blackFoot48v40.aspx) Volts & amperage? I would imagine it works from a regular, household 110 volt wall outlet? Thanks!

    The electronics and motors are powered by a 36 volt power supply running a max of 8.8 amps. You can configure the system to run on 110v or 220v. Additional Information: If you wish to use a spindle (recommended), you will need a 220V outlet. You can still use a standard router and this will consume around 11 amps, depending on the model and power of router that you choose. So, you can expect a total consumption of 11+8.8 = 19.8 amps.

  • What are the model numbers for your 2.2kw 110v and 220v VFDs? Or can you share a link to their documentation?

    Documentation for Parameter setup is included with VFD purchase. For spindle wiring and programming, please refer to the product pages for the spindles or VFDs (or the combo kit) and scroll down to instructions. For further assistance you can contact customerservice@buildyourcnc.com

  • Transaction EQEPB4915043, My 2.2Kw Spindle and Inverter showed up without any manual or instructions. Can you provide a manual? Thank you

    The spindle does not come with a manual, however the inverter should come with a manual booklet in the box. The wiring diagram and PD settings for the inverter and spindle (https://www.buildyourcnc.com/item/spindle-inverter-2!2kw-spindle-novfd) can be view together on the spindle page, also you can use a local hardware store extension cord (orange) to connect/wire from your outlet(220V) to your inverter and spindle accordingly from the diagram. Additional Information: I also received a spindle and inverter without a manual. While the diagrams on the product page were sufficient to get the unit running, there is no documentation anywhere to be found concerning the terminal block that is used for external control. What does one have to do to get a hold of the manual that was supposed to come with the inverter? Manuals for the 220VAC model are plentiful online; however, manuals for the 110VAC model are non-existent.

  • spindle not spinning

    Dealing with our spindle there can be a couple of things that can cause or have the spindle not turn on. (I will start with the simpler causes the going into more specific causes): 1)Does the VFD LED panel turn on at all even without the spindle connected? 2)Trying to connect a 220V VFD to a 110V socket, you will get a dL message on the VFD meaning there is not enough voltage going in to the VFD. 3)If you are trying to connect the spindle to our parallel breakout board, if you wired the specific wires going from S/P to DCM/FOR. see the link for specific locations (https://buildyourcnc.com/item/electronicsAndMotors-parallel-breakout-relay). 4)Also if your tried connecting the breakout board to the VFD, you will need to change PD 001 from 0 to 1. Which will be the form of communication from either manual or electronic on/off for the VFD. 5)When you wired the spindle, did you have it wired to the VFD according to the wiring diagram and set the correct PD settings in the VFD? (https://buildyourcnc.com/item/spindle-inverter-2!2kw-spindle-novfd#prettyPhoto/9/)

  • Single Phase 220 supply to VFD. R=Neutral, S=110 Leg, T=110 Leg?? Not sure after reading up on this..

    When connecting the VFD to 220v, use the wiring diagram on this page to properly connect the wires from the 220v socket to the terminals of the VFD: https://buildyourcnc.com/item/spindle-inverter-2!2kw-spindle-novfd Other than that, you will need a certified electrician to make sure that the wall socket is correctly wired to the fuse panel.

  • Shipping cost for CNC kits to Europe using Amazon is 75% cheaper, but do these kits automatically come with 220v inverters instead of 110v ?

  • I've buffered a PWM signal to a 0-10V analog signal and I would like to use that signal to run your 110V 2.2kW spindle and VFD. Could you please detail the correct wiring and VFD settings to get that working?

    This will depend on the VFD you have to identify the correct terminal. The terminal on the VFD will be labeled AI1 typically (Analog Input #1). You will also need to make sure to complete the PWM circuit using the GND terminal on the VFD. Additional Information: I have wired my 0-10V signal to the AI1 and GND terminals as suggested. I have also set the PD-01 and PD-02 settings to 1. Still nothing. Is there something else that I am missing? Additional Information: Thanks for the information. Can you let me know the model of the VFD that you have? Additional Information: VFD Model # YL600-2S-2K20 Additional Information: Thanks. I will check our resources and documentation to see if there is another programming setting that needs to be changed. Additional Information: Does your VFD have a VI terminal? Additional Information: No, it does not. The terminals for this VFD are as follows (seperated by dashes "-"). 10V-AI1-AO2-PLC-DI5-DI3-DI1-COM AI2-GND-AO1-DI6-DI4-DI2-FM-24V Additional Information: Do you have a PD070 parameter?

  • Is there a recommended cooling system for purchase that can be used with your 2.2 kW water cooled spindles?

    A standard water pump like this one will work: https://www.buildyourcnc.com/item/pneumatic-hydraulic-water-pump-370-Gallons-Per-Hour-220v-110v You will also need silicone tubing at 1/4" ID and 3/8" OD to connect from the pump to the spindle: https://www.buildyourcnc.com/Item/pneumatic-hydraulic-silicone-tubing And a bucket to hold the water. You may also consider CPU cooling systems which can actually be fastened to the back of the gantry. We do this for the Fabricator Pro machine. The CPU cooling I would recommend is a small pump and cylinder with a heat sink, or a small radiator.

  • Is a 110v 20a circuit sufficient to run the spindle (2.2kw w/110v inverter)?

    t might be a better idea to increase the circuit breaker above 20 as 2200/110 is exactly 20. You will not have a buffer there in case you need it. Alternatively, you can decrease the current draw of the spindle in the VFD programming process.

  • In the 3 Axis Electronics Combo, what is the AC input of the power supply (110v or 220v??). is it possible to specify a certain voltage when ordering?

    In our 3-Axis electronics kit, the power supply's provided are capable of both 110V-220V. You have the capability to switch between both in case you might decide to run 220v in the near future or will relocate where 110v is being used. Additional Information: Connect spindle to the board Additional Information: Additional Information:

  • I'm interested in purchasing your black tooth laser engraver and am curious what setup to get. I already have a cnc wired via parallel port to my PC. Do I need to purchase the black tooth laser with the integrated computer or can I just disconnect my current cnc's parallel port and connect it to the black tooth laser engraver? Also is the black tooth 110v?

    If you have an existing PC with a parallel port you will not need to purchase the onboard computer system on the blackTooth laser cutter and engraver. You will want to purchase the blackTooth laser engraver that comes with the parallel interface (breakout board). If you have an existing CNC machine that is being used with this PC, you can disconnect the CNC machine and connect the blackTooth to this PC. You will want to have two configurations for your control software. Additional Information: We have a version of the blackTooth that is 110v and 220v. We generally determine which is sent according to the requirements of the customer and in what country they live. Additional Information: 20 Additional Information: Parallel Port Configuration BIOS settings and Mach 3.

  • If I use your greenBull CNC with 110 instead of 220, am I taking a reduction in functionality?

    No, the greenBull CNC will function with the same performance in 110 or 220 volts. When the voltage changes, the current compensates for the different voltage. Make sure to select the appropriate products for the voltage. If the product does in list the voltage, make sure to give us a cal to inform us so we can supply the correct components in the package for shipping.

  • I'd like complete package pricing, for a 110 unit 2'x4'.we can talk options later ,just need a basic turn key price.ill be rough carving arch top guitar tops and backs mostly.thankyou Greg m

    Hi Greg, You are looking at roughly $2600-3800. We have to give you a range rather than a number because the options matter a good deal in this case, particularly depending what computer equipment and software you might already have and your comfort level with electronics. Please send us an email at sales@buildyourcnc.com to discuss the various options and which would be best for your use case. With a couple of questions we can tell you exactly what your price would be.

  • I would like my kit (34B888940C6150059) to include 110VAC option. Who do I contact?

    We will make that adjustment on your order.

  • i was a video where you used a voltage transformer to connect your vdf. i am new to vdf. i was wordering what kind of of volt transformer should i get. lets say a vdf is rated 10amp and 200-240 should i get a voltage transformer with 2000 watts or 2500 watts? also if i plug this into my home wall socket(110v) will be able to work with out tripping the circuit breaker?

    The transformer I used in the video was only to show the usage of the VFD and spindle. I recommend using a properly wired 220V outlet to to power the VFD. If you use a transformer, make sure that the power (watts) of the transformer exceeds the VFD/spindle wattage (i.e. 2.2kW spindle is 2200 watts). You can find the current: I = watts/V which gives you I = 2200/220V, I = 10 amps. However, not being a professional electrician, I cannot inform whether your circuit breaker will handle this current load. I suspect that with 110V, I = 2200 watts / 110 V = 20 amps, so you will probably want a breaker with more than 20 amp to provide a margin of safety. Please seek the guidance of a professional electrician since I am not, and you are working in an unsafe environment when connecting these high powered electrical systems. Thanks and let me know how it goes. Thanks.

  • I purchased the greenbull with the electronics assembled, where are the wiring schematics to wire to 110 volt inverter?

    There is another image on the spindle page here that shows another type of wiring using the R, T and E terminals for power. The image is one of the clickable main images on that page: https://www.buildyourcnc.com/item/spindle-inverter-2!2kw-spindle-novfd Additional Information: Here is a link to the image directly: https://www.buildyourcnc.com/images/SpindleWiring-800.JPG And here is the link to the alternate diagram: https://www.buildyourcnc.com/images/NewSpindleDiagram-800.JPG

  • I purchased a vfd and spindle from a friend, his set up is 220. I don't have 220 in my shop. My question is can I use your 110 vfd with this spindle??

    Depending if the spindle can work with this specific VFD, it might be possible. However we would not like to risk you working unit, with a possible match so we would like more details on your specific model and any information available on the spindle itself. Response The only info on the spindle is 2.2KW 400HZ 220V. Made by Zhong Hua Jiang. Was originally on a Delta C200 vfd. That is 220 single phase.

  • I have wired up my 110v VFD and my 2.2Kw spindle and I get an E.Lu.5 code. My wiring is correct and the parameters are set to those for the VFD according to your website I found in a previously answered question from someone here. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!!

    The E.Lu.5 Error code on your VFD is related to Low Voltage. The recommended action is: - 1. Check whether the input voltage is normal. (the voltage from the wall/breaker to the VFD) - 2. Check whether there is a sudden change in load. - 3. Check whether there is any phase missing. Unfortunately, these three recommended actions will probable require an electrician to test the line going into the VFD. Additional Information:

  • I have the 2.2 kW spindle and VFD for 110v, just wondering what amperage this draws, as my electricain buddy is telling me I need to put in a 20 amp breaker for this. I cant seem to find any amerpage draw on the INPUT label

    You can actually set a current limit in in the VFD using the programming process and the specifications in the manual that came with your VFD. You can expect the spindle at 220 Volts AC to draw (using the standard formula): For Volts, I will use 230 as the range is generally 220 to 240. Watts = Current * Volts Can also be written as: Current = Watts / Volts Current = 2.2kW (2200 watts) / 230 volts Current = 9.6 amps

  • I have the YL600-2S-2K20 P 110V VFD. I have configured it for using an external source to control the run. According to the enclosed documentation to set to forward run it shows using the X4 terminal. When I use X4 and tell it to run the Rev led lights. If I change to use the X5 terminal it lights the For led. Is your documantation that was included incorrect or do I have something set wrong?

    If the spindle runs in the opposite direction than what the VFD shows in the indicator (also when X4 and X5 terminals are used) that sounds like your three wires going to the spindle are incorrect. All you need to do is switch two of the wires and your spindle will run in the correct direction. Additional Information: I am still waiting for the cable to connect my spindle so that doesn't come into play yet. I am just looking at the results of the led indicators as being reversed of what the documentation says that I should get by using the X$ and X5 terminals.

  • How to display RPM instead of frequency on the VFD? I have the 2.2kv 110 volt spindle and inverter.

    There is a button on the front of the VFD that will cycle through RPM, Freq, and a few other readings. If there is a >> button on your VFD, that will work. If there is a mode button on your VFD, that should works as well. Additional Information: There is a >> disc button but it does not cycle through the display modes. Additional Information: Is there a parameter setting to make this button work to cycle thru the display modes? Additional Information: setting the starting rpm Additional Information: the vfd will not start the motor Additional Information: Any progress on this? I have the same issue. Additional Information: What model is your VFD? Additional Information: Mine is a YL620-G-5.5Kw Additional Information: That model will not be able to show RPM. You will be able to show the frequency, which can be used to determine the RPM. RPM equals the Frequency x 60. Additional Information: There is an Icon for RPM at the top of the display I cannot cycle through the different options to see the RPM Additional Information: At the top of my control panel is has 6 different lights which indicate what your seeing. in order from left to right they are COM, ALM, DISP, RUN, Hz, RPM I have seen the ALM light up on initial set up but that was fixes with a parameter change. The run light shows up when i turn the spindle on and and it is running. I am however not able to get any of the other lights to show or to get the RPMs to display Additional Information: If you do see an RPM light on the display, that panel sticker may be a sticker used for many types of VFDs and the RPM is not used. There is parameter: P00.24 which allows you to pick what to display. The choices a re: 0: Display current target frequency. This will display your knobs, potentiometer, setting, not the actual spindle frequency. 1: Display electric machinery run frequency. This will display the actual frequency that the VFD is currently sending to the spindle. 2: Display electric machinery run current: this will display the current the spindle is currently drawing. 3: Display input AC voltage. Self explanatory. 4: Display mother line voltage. This will display the actual voltage at the input. 5: Display output voltage. This will display the voltage at the UVW terminals for the spindle. 6: Display speed paragraph number SPx. I believe this displays which frequency is being selected (P07.00 to P07.07, or 1 to 8 respectively). 7: Display inverter temperature. This is the temp of the VFD, self explanatory. 8: Display input signal X1-X3/output signal. This simply shows the inputs/outputs associated with the external terminals. 9: Display user variable. This one I have not delved into, so it may be something to look into. 10: Display user count value. Same, this one could be useful. 11: Display temporary debugging variable. Haven't tried this one, so I can't inform of any useful information but it won't pertain to this subject anyway. 12: Display automatic multisegment run step and time. I haven't delved into this one either, but it won't show RPM.

  • How do I conect the VFD of the spindle to the RS485 connections

    It is not necessary to connect the spindle VFD (Variable Frequency Drive also called an Inverter) to the computer or CNC motion electronics. The VFD can be controlled independently using the control panel on the VFD. The control panel has the ability to control all aspects of the spindle including Speed, Torque, limits, etc. However, you can connect the VFD to the computer so the CNC control program can control the spindle during the CNC Machine operation. You will need to connect the VFD to the computer via a serial conection (in this case, it is the RS-485 protocol). The following are instructions on how to connect the VFD to Mach3 via this RS-485 serial connection. The first thing you will need is the dynamic link library to pair with mach3 called the Huanyang VFD Mach3 PlugIn. You can find this file at the mach3 support forum here: http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,14182.0.html You will also need to download the Microsoft .net 3.5 framework and install it: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=21 Follow the pdf that comes with the library file, but here is a synopsis of what you need to do (I also added a lot more information that may be useful during this process as the manual does not cover the main connections that need to be done): You will need to program your VFD so that it knows how to communicate with mach3 and the computer (go into the programming mode of the VFD and change these parameters): - PD001 - value 2 - Enables with communication aspect of the VFD - PD002 - value 2 - Enables frequency control from the communcations port - PD163 - value 1 - VFD address - PD164 - value 1 - Baud rate of 9600 (speed of the communication) - PD165 - value 3 - 8N1 RTU - 8 bits (that's the size of the word that gets communicated), N (No parity or no error checking) and 1 (1 stop bit) Copy the dll file to the PlugIns folder of mach3. Connect the RX and TX lines to your computer. There are a couple ways you can do this, but the recommended way would be to use an FTDI USB device which converts a USB to a serial com port. The device will have Rx and Tx connectors to connect to the VFD terminals with the same labels. This method is recommended since serial ports are not as common in computers these days. Next, you will need to configure mach3 to use the plugin library. Start mach3 and click on Menu -> config ->Config Plugins. Enable the new plugin by clicking on the red cross on the left column next to the plug in. Restart mach3 after doing this. No you need to configure mach3 to use the HuanyangVFD plugin. Go to the ports & pins configuration and select the spindle setup tab. Make sure that the Disable Spindle Relays checkbox is unchecked. We don't want mach3 to output a signal for a relay since the spindle will start up and turn off within the VFD and not from an external relay. Next, go to the HuanyangVFD settings by clicking on Menu -> plugin control -> HuanyangVFD. Set the parameters to the same settings you put into the VFD programming. The com port will be shown as new hardward when you plug in the USB FTDI device. A little bubble will be displayed at the bottom right where it will notify you that a new device is being installed (be patient while windows assigns a com port). Alternatively, you can use the windows device manager to see which port was set for the new USB FTDI device). You may need to restart mach3 several times until you get the correct information displayed in the PD001 and PD002 fields. When the com port is correct and the other parameters, like baud and VFD address is the same as you entered in the programming, then the PD001 and PD002 will show the number 2, otherwise, a 99 will appear which means that communication was not successful. You can now control the on/off and RPM of the spindle using the RS485 communication between mach3 and the VFD. Additional Information: The question was how to connect the spindle to the redfy. I did not receive a VFD. I have the redFly system and a 2.2kW Spindle - 110V how do i connect the spindle? Additional Information: If you received a spindle without a VFD, please contact us asap. Our spindle will not work without a VFD. Additional Information: Hi, how is this setup in mach4?

  • How can i tell if my laser supply is 110 or 230 VAC? there is no marking of any kind

    Only the 110v Version will have any indication of voltage on it. On the side of the power supply unit that has the black terminal strip and red wire coming out of it, there will be a silver sticker on the white side of the transformer that will state 110v, if it is 110v. If there is no sticker, then it should be 220v. Additional Information: 20

  • hi, would like to make a change on my order, i purchase this part 2.2kW Spindle with 220V Inverter $528.00, and would like to make it for 110 volts instead of 220v. please

    Sure, not a problem at all. You will need to call our office and provide your information so that we can change the correct order. Our phone number can be seen by hovering over the "Need Help?" at the top right of each page.

  • hi, what about, if I buy from you some elecronic parts like (3 Axis Electronics Combo) and I use them here in france , where the electric voltage is 220V 50Hertz ? thats gonna works? thanks

    Our electronics contains a switchable power supply that allows you to switch the input mains voltage between 115 volts (110/120) and 230 volts (220/240). the hertx range is not specified, but there are capacitors to smooth out standard frequencies to enable DC output.

  • hi am over in the uk and was looking to buy one of your stepper motor bundels but our power is 240v instead of 110v do u sell other power supply units to suit our voltage thanks.

    The power supply units that come with our Electronics Combo Kits have a switchable input voltage. There is a red switch on the side that allows you to switch from 220v to 110v.

  • Hello, I bought your 110v 2.2kw spindle and vfd. When I turn it on it reaches the full 24000 rpm, but will not let me decrease the speed. How Can I fix this?

    Are you using the control panel (front panel with the speed control knob known as he potentiometer)? Or are you attempting to use the computer to control the speed? Additional Information: I am using the control panel, however there is no knob on mine, just buttons.

  • Hello, I am a student working on a CO2 laser. We recently ordered two 40watt CO2 laser tubes and two 40 Watt CO2 Laser Tube Power Supply at 220V. However, our school is unable to use them due to being 220v. Is it possible to exchange these for the 110v supply, or is there a way we can go about connecting it at 110v instead of 220v? Thank you.

    Yes, if the power supplies were supplied by us, we will exchange them with 110v equivalent power supplies. Additional Information: Additional Information: Additional Information:

  • Good morning, we purchased the vfd with 220v but here in south america the standard is 110v, will it work? or should I adapt one power outlet to 220v

    If you purchased a 220 volt VFD (Variable Frequency Drive), you will need to use a 220 volt outlet. A VFD that has an input voltage rating of 220 volts will not work with 110 volts being applied to the VFD. We do sell 110 volt VFDs but you will also need a spindle that pairs with the 110 volt VFD.

  • Good morning, I would like to know if the strength of the 2.2kw spindle is weaker when using the 110V version of the VFD. Does it have the same power as the 220V version VFD?

    The 2.2kW spindle will have the same amount of torque and strength using either the 110V or the 220V inverter. Nothing will significantly change in either application since the 110V inverter has a small step up transformer which will increase the voltage from 110V to 220V to run the spindle efficiently. Additional Information: I'd like confirmation on this -- isn't there a cost in efficiency to having the 110v step up to 220v? Additional Information: Thank you so very much for explaining this!!!
