This is a very quick, high-level overview of the parts I am using for my CNC Upgrade. I am upgrading my CNC4Newbies NewCarve 1000 to an Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) and in doing so, need to replace pretty much every other electronic component from what came with the original kit. This was quickly shot on my cell-phone but the other videos will be significantly better. Please feel free to subscribe and click the notification button so you know when I upload my next video. A quick little background: I started off down the CNC rabbit hole a little over 2.5 years ago with a Openbuilds LEAD1010. I quickly upgraded that to a watercooled spindle then as I started doing more aluminum parts realized it wasn't very stiff. I then sold that and jumped to the NewCarve 1000 machine. It was still using the lowered powered NEMA23 motors on the OpenBuilds BlackBox controller with a spindle. Overall it has worked well but now that I'm getting into more complicated parts all the manual tool changes have become a pain in the butt and take forever. This is how I got to where I am now. I am upgrading my current machine to go full ATC with a spindle and in the process upgrading the controller, stepper motors, and controllers. Here is my current parts list: -Spindle: JGL-80/ purchased from here: ... -VFD: Sunfar E550 -Controller: Centroid CNC Acorn + Ether1616 Expansion + Wireless Pendent + Touch Probe -Stepper Motors: Nema 23 Closed Loop Stepper Motor Encoder 1000PPR(4000CPR) -Stepper Drivers: Stepper Online CL57T Closed Loop Stepper Driver 24-48VDC for Nema 17, 23, 24 Stepper Motor Driver -PSUs: 1x RHINO PSH-48-480, 1x RHINO PSH-48-240 (these are for the stepper drivers), 2x RHINO PSH-24-080 (these are used for powering ACORN and the other for the pneumatic solenoid valves) -Other Sensors: Fluid level for coolant, air pressure for confirming correct pressure for ATC ops, ends stops, DC OK from all PSUs, Toolholder confirmation if attached to spindle or not
