[00:25:24] <PetefromTn_> PCW I just mailed out my 7i77 to you guys this afternoon
[00:25:40] <PetefromTn_> As you recall I released the Magic smoke on it
[00:25:49] <PetefromTn_> hopefully it can be repaired
[00:26:00] <PCW> Maybe it can be resurrected
[00:26:14] <PetefromTn_> that would be sweet.
[00:26:15] <zeeshan|2> isnt it cheaper to buy a new one pcw?
[00:27:33] <PCW> depends on how severe the problem is I usually wont spend more than about 10 minutes on repairs of damaged cards

[01:50:12] <PetefromTn_> Any of you guys bought stuff from Aliexpress?
[01:50:20] <XXCoder> i did
[01:50:50] <PetefromTn_> what did you buy and how did it go?
[01:50:58] <XXCoder> well few stuff
[01:51:08] <XXCoder> one of em is wifi dongle for computer
[01:51:14] <XXCoder> works fine. just dont use their driver
[01:51:36] <XXCoder> in general quality isnt as good but many cases its fine
[01:51:58] <PetefromTn_> http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Best-price-great-quality-Servo-motor-set-2-39N-M-0-75KW-3000RPM-80ST-AC-Servo/1863383110.html Tempting
[01:53:03] <XXCoder> dunno on pricing but it probably will work. look for reviews
[01:55:01] <PetefromTn_> hard to say really.
[01:55:12] <PetefromTn_> But that is the motor size I need basically
[01:55:27] <PetefromTn_> http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-750W-0-75KW-ac-servo-motor-servo-driver-2-39N-M-80ST-80ST-M02430-3000RPM-/161454973914?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item25977763da
[01:55:31] <PetefromTn_> like this one.
[01:55:31] <XXCoder> well I'd say go for it and see
[02:00:41] <PetefromTn_> Yeah I've got some time to think about it while I repaint the machine and just generally R and R the thing.'
[02:08:21] <skunkworks_> PetefromTn_: why are not use existing servos?
[02:08:44] <PetefromTn_> well the one in it is a DC brushless with resolver feedback
[02:09:22] <PetefromTn_> and honestly I replaced the original servos in the Cincinatti with matched AC servos and drives and have been very happy with that decision so far.
[02:09:43] <skunkworks_> mesa has stuff for that...
[02:09:43] <PetefromTn_> nice to have brand new parts in there.
[02:09:56] -!- brianmorel99 has quit [Quit: brianmorel99]
[02:10:02] <PetefromTn_> the other thing is there is no Z motor
[02:10:09] <skunkworks_> ah
[02:10:11] <PetefromTn_> so I would need to buy one anyways
[02:10:18] <PetefromTn_> might as well get a matched pair.
[02:10:43] <PetefromTn_> the Teco motors and drives I used in the Cincinatti are working quite well.
[02:10:56] <PetefromTn_> they do not make a TECO servo motor that will fit the lathe tho
[02:11:19] <PetefromTn_> its a nema 34 750 watt motor 3.1 NM continuous at 2400RPM
[02:11:32] -!- amiri has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
[02:11:56] <PetefromTn_> The good news is since it is 1-1 belt drive and the mounts are very simple I am not tied to any certain motor really.
[02:12:10] <PetefromTn_> Basically anything Nema 34 or smaller will work
[02:13:16] <PetefromTn_> I almost bought the DMM servos for the Cincinatti and they actually have a motor and driver setup that would run about $650.00 per axis for AC servos.

[02:49:17] <cathode> :(
[02:49:19] <XXCoder> I finished my tap block internship project
[02:49:34] <XXCoder> it was interesting. first time I cut steel manually using cnc
[02:49:42] <cathode> heh
[02:49:47] <XXCoder> I didnt quite do it correctly so it was quite rough
[02:49:49] <cathode> manually using cnc?
[02:49:55] <XXCoder> yeah its big machine
[02:50:04] <cathode> you mean without working off a 3d CAD model first?
[02:50:53] <XXCoder> yeah I cant do it any way but manual.
[02:51:12] <XXCoder> no program
[02:51:21] -!- PetefromTn_ has quit [Quit: I'm Outta here!!]
[02:52:02] <cathode> ah
[02:52:33] <XXCoder> tap block isnt that complex though
[02:52:35] <cathode> so, i discovered (not surprising) that the cheap stepped bit i bought on amazon is junk
[02:52:42] <cathode> got pictures of it?
[02:52:50] <XXCoder> just certain block size then add bevel and 9 holes
[02:53:10] <XXCoder> I screwed up on holes camfers so it looks funky but otherwise nice
[02:53:39] <cathode> :/
[02:53:47] <XXCoder> before I sanded it (I didnt use facemill nicely)

[02:54:31] <cathode> looks like your chamfering bit was chattering a lot
[02:54:49] <XXCoder> yeah should have used single umm whats it called
[02:54:53] <XXCoder> flute
[02:55:15] <XXCoder> I can still do it but will make chamfer even larger
[02:55:22] <cathode> i just bought one of those. i had some 6-flute ones i got at .... harbor freight? they work fine when you're plunging straight into wood
[02:55:49] <XXCoder> I bought two 123 blocks for home use, but later found out I will make one evenually lol
[02:55:54] <cathode> but trying to countersink or chamfer an existing hole, the 6-flute ones jump all over
[02:57:06] <cathode> "if you want it done right, do it yourself", yes?
[02:57:11] <XXCoder> I used y flute I think
[02:57:13] <XXCoder> 6
[02:57:24] <XXCoder> I now know thats bad idea
[02:58:55] <cathode> http://www.hassay-savage.com/4242222/
[02:59:18] <XXCoder> get a quote??
[02:59:19] <XXCoder> jeez
[02:59:26] <XXCoder> if its quote I cant afford it
[02:59:34] <XXCoder> probably $300 or something

[03:00:27] <cathode> no idea if that one is any good or not
[03:00:38] <cathode> i actually have better luck on ebay than on amazon for "cheap stuff"
[03:00:50] <XXCoder> funny because it would work for all but last hole
[03:00:59] <XXCoder> its too small, last hole is .5 in
[03:01:12] <cathode> ah
[03:01:28] -!- AR_ has quit [Ping timeout: 255 seconds]
[03:01:30] <XXCoder> not planning to buy tool collection till later as needed
[03:01:33] <cathode> do you have a stepped bit? they do a good job of adding a little chamfer if you're really light on the application
[03:02:33] <cathode> i bought a set of 3 stepped bits at harbor freight for ... i think $9
[03:02:58] <cathode> they've drilled 50-100 holes each, some of that through steel and aluminum (with cutting oil used)... still very sharp
[03:03:21] <XXCoder> not bad
[03:03:58] <cathode> i have no CNC equipment in my shop (yet) as it's just a hobby-grade shop in my basement
[03:05:14] <XXCoder> I basically has tablesaw, drill press and parts of cnc heh
[03:05:15] <cathode> so i do my hole drilling with a floor-standing drill press. i just set the depth stop so that the stepped bit barely touches the next step while drilling, which deburs/chamfers the hole as i finish drilling it. with the depth stop, it's repeatable and requires no thought
[03:05:30] <cathode> heh, you can do a lot with just a table saw and drill press :)
[03:06:26] <XXCoder> yeah thats why I bought those twp
[03:07:28] <cathode> i have TS, DP, jointer, planer, three routers (one plunge, two fixed), nice bosch jigsaw, 7-1/4" circular saw, belt sander, pneumatic nailguns and staplers, a set of 18v Ridgid cordless drill/drivers and a plethora of hand tools... all packed into a 14x16 basement room

[03:24:30] <ssi> he asked a bunch of questions about the machine and how it was built, how it worked, etc

[04:56:12] <Connor> How goes the cleaning ?
[04:56:21] <PetefromTn_andro> I've been scrubbing grease and chips off the lathe all day.
[04:57:10] <PetefromTn_andro> I did think to check the run out on the spindle after captainhindsight asked about it
[04:57:26] <Connor> and ?
[04:57:42] <Connor> and did you verify the bore diameter ?
[04:58:08] <PetefromTn_andro> I put my best brown and sharp dial test indicator in my mag base and stuck it up against the spindle bore.
[04:58:26] <PetefromTn_andro> It's a .0005 indicator
[04:58:48] <PetefromTn_andro> And the damn needle barely moved

[04:59:52] <PetefromTn_andro> It has clean looking oil in the headstock sight window
[05:01:02] <PetefromTn_andro> There is no other way on this machine that's for sure I don't even have a Collette or Chuck or much of anything for it yet
[05:01:21] <toastyde1th> no no, I mean there's no way to one-shot measure it period
[05:01:32] <toastyde1th> not without graph paper and some time on your hands
[05:01:34] <PetefromTn_andro> But the bearings seem tight and smooth
[05:01:58] <PetefromTn_andro> I understand what you meant and I have heard that before
[05:02:06] <Connor> I'm kinda stuck on stuff right now.. Waiting for my wire duct and wire furrule to show up.
[05:02:18] <toastyde1th> (doesn't actually matter, just something that's interesting for machine checking)
[05:02:37] <Connor> Dang China vendor shipped them, and was returned because they couldn't ship 1meter long wire duct.
[05:02:47] <PetefromTn_andro> Aah
[05:03:29] <PetefromTn_andro> I gotta get some nice epoxy or industrial paint for this thing here soon
[05:03:40] <Connor> told'm what sizes I needed the duct and told em to cut it and ship it if possible.. we'll see.
[05:04:00] <PetefromTn_andro> The parts I already stripped already have some light surface rust lol
[05:04:13] <Connor> Really?
[05:04:22] <PetefromTn_andro> Yeah amazing
[05:04:24] <Connor> developed AFTER you stripped ?
[05:04:32] <PetefromTn_andro> Yup
[05:04:58] <PetefromTn_andro> No biggie I will be sanding it anyway before I shoot primer on
[05:05:03] <Connor> Must be something in the degreaser accelerating the oxidation.
[05:05:36] <PetefromTn_andro> No I did not use the degreaser on those parts
[05:05:45] <Connor> Oh. okay
[05:05:56] <PetefromTn_andro> It's funny

[05:07:39] <PetefromTn_andro> So you would think it would be thick and rigid
[05:07:55] <Connor> Is it not ?
[05:07:57] <PetefromTn_andro> But it's like les than an eighth inch thick
[05:08:13] <Connor> Wonder how much stress it has ?
[05:08:17] <PetefromTn_andro> I can flex it easily with my hands
[05:08:35] <PetefromTn_andro> It is L shaped
[05:09:14] <PetefromTn_andro> I thought they did a nice job on the homes and limits placement tho
[05:09:53] <Connor> Probably not that much of a stress point and they figure it wouldn't affect the accuracy of the homes.
[05:10:08] <PetefromTn_andro> The x has a home and limit and they contact a piece of metal that has a slot with a taper at both ends
[05:10:29] <PetefromTn_andro> The z has a limit and home
[05:10:36] <Connor> Was looking at some of those lathes with the tool turrets.. I'm thinking you could make one out of a rotary table..
[05:10:55] <Connor> Just not sure about the backlash of the table.
[05:10:58] <PetefromTn_andro> The limit is fixed at a point that will keep the z out of the headstock
[05:11:11] <Connor> That's nice.
[05:11:47] <PetefromTn_andro> The z limit near the other end is actually on a tapered ram mounted to the tailstock
[05:12:17] <Connor> I'm basically going to have to do a complete re-config on my since I'm upgrading to new screws and using mesa now.
[05:12:24] <PetefromTn_andro> So no matter where you put the tail stock you cannot crash into it with the apron
[05:12:46] <PetefromTn_andro> Yeah probably will.
[05:13:19] <PetefromTn_andro> The z home switch is mounted in a fixed position about a foot out from the headstock
[05:13:29] <PetefromTn_andro> Pretty cool actually
[05:14:05] <Connor> That's one thing I'm going to have to finish up.. mounting the homes / limits those are always the last thing to get added..
[05:14:08] <cathode> can anyone reccomend an inexpensive videocamera that is durable enough to record in a shop?

[05:15:45] <Connor> Makes sense. Easy way to do it.
[05:15:58] <roycroft> cathode: i've been looking at gopro cameras for recording shop stuff
[05:16:11] <PetefromTn_andro> Yeah I talked to art about it. He has two rotabs with cnc
[05:16:12] <roycroft> they're not the greatest quality, but they're decent
[05:16:40] <roycroft> they're also waterproof, and they have heaps of mounts available
[05:16:47] <PetefromTn_andro> He did one with a dividing head
[05:17:08] <cathode> roycroft - ok
[05:17:16] <roycroft> ~$200 for a decent one
[05:17:18] <zeeshan|2> toastyde1th: still there?
[05:17:21] <cathode> i thought about that too but i was looking for a bit cheaper :P
[05:17:25] <roycroft> i don't know if that's what's in your budget or not
[05:17:25] <zeeshan|2> can you explain why you cant measure true spindle run out?
[05:17:26] <toastyde1th> zeeshan|2, yep
[05:17:32] <roycroft> and i don't have one and haven't used one
[05:17:34] <PetefromTn_andro> I might just try to get a manufactured one cheap used somehow
[05:17:42] <toastyde1th> 2 secs and i'll explain
[05:17:46] <zeeshan|2> :-)
[05:17:49] <cathode> there's some unbranded stuff from china sold on ebay in the $75 range, with similar specs to a gopro
[05:17:54] <roycroft> it's something i'm shopping for, though, and i'm leaning towards the gopro hero 3
[05:18:21] <roycroft> i'm sure there are plenty of other options
[05:18:32] <cathode> hmmm, $65...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Full-HD-1080P-Waterproof-Outdoor-Sport-Bike-Helmet-Car-Action-Camera-DVR-DV-Cam-/321389025963?pt=Camcorders_Professional_Video_Cameras&hash=item4ad4475aab
[05:20:03] <cathode> that thing is tiny enough it could be used (maybe) as a webcam attached to a machine
[05:20:18] <toastyde1th> zeeshan|2, the basic problem is that what you're measuring is some object that has nothing to do with the spindle bearing itself
[05:20:43] <toastyde1th> it just happens that through careful initial machining, it's kinda close to the actual spindle's axis of rotation
[05:20:52] <zeeshan|2> youre saying theres somting on top of the bearing inner race
[05:20:54] <zeeshan|2> that can throw error
[05:20:59] <zeeshan|2> *throw = add
[05:21:16] <toastyde1th> i'm saying that what one wants to measure is the hypothetical axis of rotation, which isn't even the inner bearing race
[05:21:29] <toastyde1th> it's a completely abstract line
[05:21:42] <toastyde1th> and it does move all over the place
[05:22:10] <zeeshan|2> that makes sense
[05:22:14] <zeeshan|2> this is why dynamic spindle runout
[05:22:16] <zeeshan|2> is different
[05:22:40] <cathode> i think i need to replace the bearings in my drill press...
[05:22:40] <toastyde1th> actually dynamic spindle runout is different again for different reasons
[05:22:44] <roycroft> it's a matter of what you want to deal with
[05:22:52] <zeeshan|2> im stupid youre right
[05:22:57] <roycroft> pay more for a name brand, and if there's a problem you can send it back to be repaired/replaced
[05:22:59] <zeeshan|2> its more to do with modes of vibration
[05:23:02] <toastyde1th> yep
[05:23:06] <toastyde1th> and there are two types
[05:23:09] <roycroft> or pay a lot less for a no-brand and just buy a new one if it breaks
[05:23:15] <toastyde1th> synchronous error, and asynchronous error
[05:23:39] <toastyde1th> synchronous error happens at some multiple of the frequenct of rotation, with the biggest errors being the fundamental and first harmonic
[05:24:02] <toastyde1th> with some other errors being linked to the harmonic based on how many bearing elements there are, etc
[05:24:24] <toastyde1th> also machine vibration tends to be synchronous
[05:24:34] <toastyde1th> (since the spindle's driving the oscillation)
[05:24:42] <toastyde1th> async is random
[05:25:09] <toastyde1th> on some machines, machine vibration looks asynchronous - it's not a hard and fast rule
[05:25:34] <zeeshan|2> thats the more annoying kind to deal with
[05:25:44] <zeeshan|2> the cnc grinders ive worked on
[05:25:46] <toastyde1th> synchronous errors are nice because they can be nulled out with the right equipment on ultraprecision lathes
[05:25:52] <toastyde1th> ya
[05:25:59] <zeeshan|2> were closed loop with the acclerometers monitoring vibrations
[05:26:07] <zeeshan|2> and compensated on the fly for em

[05:26:53] <zeeshan|2> have you seen those gauges before?
[05:27:05] <toastyde1th> not a grinder guy, nope
[05:27:19] <zeeshan|2> they measure live as the tool is grinding
[05:27:24] <zeeshan|2> gets the part to within 2 um
[05:27:50] <toastyde1th> nice
[05:28:10] <zeeshan|2> i could not find out how they measure..
[05:28:12] <toastyde1th> deterministic grinding is still a bit rough
[05:28:29] <zeeshan|2> ive been told they send ultrasonic waves

[05:29:12] <zeeshan|2> better image
[05:29:33] <toastyde1th> tbh that just looks like a lvdt or cap gauge
[05:29:43] <zeeshan|2> it doesnt make copntact
[05:29:44] <zeeshan|2> w/ the part
[05:29:53] <toastyde1th> cap gages don't
[05:30:13] <zeeshan|2> so similar concept to
[05:30:16] <toastyde1th> and if you're using them for relative measurements (high frequency feedback) they don't need to be calibrated, either
[05:30:18] <zeeshan|2> cap proximity sensor
[05:30:21] <toastyde1th> yep
[05:30:27] <zeeshan|2> i wonder why its got 2 of em
[05:30:41] <toastyde1th> it may be slaved to spindle rotation
[05:31:02] <toastyde1th> that's how you do an elementary true axis of rotation measurement
[05:31:19] <toastyde1th> you measure the same point on a part, 180 degrees out via spindle rotation
[05:31:38] <toastyde1th> if it's in the same place on both sides, then the spindle hasn't moved
[05:31:46] <zeeshan|2> btw
[05:31:51] <zeeshan|2> im looking at some old pics
[05:31:53] <zeeshan|2> it does make contact
[05:31:55] <zeeshan|2> im wrong.
[05:31:59] <zeeshan|2> so it must be a lvdt
[05:32:10] <zeeshan|2> toastyde1th: gotcha
[05:32:10] <toastyde1th> works either way, lvdt's dont have much hertz stress
[05:32:23] <zeeshan|2> hertzian stress?
[05:32:24] <zeeshan|2> contact?
[05:32:27] <toastyde1th> yep
[05:32:42] <toastyde1th> only a couple grams of force, i think it comes out to be like 19 millionths of an inch or so
[05:32:57] <toastyde1th> on most lvdts
[05:32:58] <zeeshan|2> haha
[05:33:14] <zeeshan|2> we moved away from lvdts in metal forming testing in the lab
[05:33:16] <zeeshan|2> its all camera based now
[05:33:28] <zeeshan|2> cause when we're doing say bulge testing
[05:33:29] <zeeshan|2> the thing explodes
[05:33:33] <zeeshan|2> lvdt gets owned
[05:33:37] <zeeshan|2> has to be recalibrated

[05:38:57] <cathode> Ah gotcha
[05:39:04] <zeeshan|2> i remember watching a documentary on hubble's mirror
[05:39:07] <cathode> and you need precise optics to put in other machines
[05:39:29] <toastyde1th> there's no good way to make aspheric optics other than machining
[05:39:51] <toastyde1th> although now there are lapping machines that have dynamically deformable laps
[05:40:04] <cathode> heh
[05:40:06] <zeeshan|2> yes
[05:40:11] <zeeshan|2> i think mit invented those
[05:40:15] <toastyde1th> but those tend to be economical on large diameter optics
[05:40:19] <toastyde1th> not on small shit
[05:40:39] <toastyde1th> and if you plan on making cell phone cameras, you HAVE to have aspheric lenses

[11:29:22] <Computer_Barf> I am considering getting a baldor flexdrive to drive a ac servomotor
[11:29:39] <Computer_Barf> but i want to use linuxcnc
[11:30:00] <Computer_Barf> it seems to have digital ins for step and dir
[11:30:56] <Computer_Barf> but it also seems to have rs232/rs485 inputs which seem to use some sort of serial language
[11:31:42] <Computer_Barf> "FlexDriveII has fieldbus options including DeviceNet, Profibus-DP and CANopen. Onboard I/O is programmable and can be interfaced to an external PLC. "
[11:31:49] <archivist> linuxcnc can use step dir
[11:32:18] <archivist> does it also have pwm or 0-10v
[11:32:58] <Computer_Barf> accept a wide variety of input command signals to suit specific application needs, such as the industry standard +/-10V, pulse & direction, or electronic handwheel input, and it may be used for control of both rotary and linear servo motors.
[11:33:37] <Computer_Barf> ""
[11:33:41] <archivist> seems very usable
[11:34:39] <Computer_Barf> im just wondering if this whole mint thing they are talking about is something I could access through a serial connection
[11:34:52] <Computer_Barf> at the end of the pdf there are a ton of commands
[11:35:24] <Computer_Barf> "RS232 and RS485 serial channel, user selectable"
[11:35:44] <archivist> you may need to set it up via serial for the more sensible mode you want to run it in
[11:36:32] <Computer_Barf> you mean i might need to get into the serial first before using step dir?
[11:37:37] <archivist> I have not read that manual :)

[14:09:28] <pcw_home> let me try
[14:10:19] <pcw_home> do you have a RIP setup?
[14:12:10] <cpresser> no. just the debian-package via apt-get
[14:12:36] <cpresser> it seems to be a issue with the debian package. since it does not include the required files
[14:12:54] <cpresser> they are present when i compile from git-master
[14:13:07] <pcw_home> Yeah thats harder for me to try here
[14:13:22] <cpresser> ill see if i can fix the debian package
[14:13:49] <cpresser> for now, ill try to copy the files manually, or use RIP for the wizard
[14:14:09] <pcw_home> looks like module are loaded from lib/python/pncconf
[14:16:28] <cpresser> yes, and this path (and contents) is not part of the debian package
[14:18:03] <cpresser> anyway, path-handling in pnccong is not well engineered. when i preload a python-lib-dir via environment variables, pncconf cant find the images. they are coded relative to that path
[14:19:57] <zeeshan|2> hi guys
[14:20:19] <zeeshan|2> is there anyway to compensate in linuxcnc for ball screw lead error if i have a ball screw lead error map.
[14:20:26] <zeeshan|2> . = ?
[14:20:35] <pcw_home> Yep
[14:21:05] <zeeshan|2> im getting wonky links from google when i search "ball screw mapping linuxcnc"
[14:21:06] <pcw_home> max 256 segments I think
[14:24:44] <_methods> http://i.imgur.com/wo3D8.jpg
[14:25:07] <zeeshan|2> delicious
[14:26:05] <pcw_home> http://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini_config.html#_axis_lt_num_gt_section_a_id_sub_axis_section_a
[14:27:54] <zeeshan|2> when i click that link
[14:27:57] <zeeshan|2> it takes me to the top of the ini file
[14:28:00] <pcw_home> (scroll down to comp file)
[14:28:07] <cradek> http://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini_config.html#sub:AXIS-section
[14:28:26] <zeeshan|2> thank you!
[14:28:33] <cradek> I think that + in the example is bogus
[14:28:52] <cradek> (it was stupid to support two formats of comp file)
[14:32:03] <zeeshan|2> to clarify this
[14:32:21] <zeeshan|2> the very first entry would be the 0.000 position, in comp mode 0
[14:32:27] <zeeshan|2> so itd be 0 0 0
[14:33:17] <zeeshan|2> next could be 1.000 1.01 0.99 , 2.000 2.000 1.999
[14:33:18] <zeeshan|2> etc?
[14:33:29] <zeeshan|2> does it interpolate between the values
[14:41:38] <zeeshan|2> pcw_home: lol
[14:41:46] <zeeshan|2> as i was writing the email door bell rang
[14:41:49] <zeeshan|2> "special delivery"

[14:54:51] <tjtr33> ( like on 7i80DB ). It might allow closer spacing on DIN rail.
[14:55:26] <pcw_home> Probably not since we wont have one in stock
[14:56:05] <tjtr33> can order without connector ? ;)
[14:56:49] <_methods> can you use a right angle adpater on the card?
[14:57:00] <_methods> http://www.dx.com/p/pci-e-right-angle-riser-card-55277?tc=USD&gclid=CNyPgMyP0sECFbNj7AodJXYAEA

[14:58:58] <tjtr33> uh, this is a DB25 connector, and yes an adapter could be sued if i wanted even more pin2pin connections, its not a riser card
[14:59:25] <tjtr33> and btw riser cards for pic/ppcie have been talked about here, they were not liked

[15:01:23] <zeeshan|2> looks cool

[15:05:33] <tjtr33> huh? but mesa uses vertical db connectors on 7i80DB "( like on 7i80DB ). It might allow closer spacing on DIN rail."
[15:05:34] <_methods> so it should be fine then?
[15:05:38] <CaptHindsight> i use them all the time

[15:26:33] <zeeshan|2> on the internet it says
[15:26:39] <zeeshan|2> a C14 connector is max current 10A..
[15:26:48] <_methods> there ya have it
[15:26:54] <archivist> although the real kettle connector has a groove so a standard IEC wont fit
[15:26:58] <zeeshan|2> then how can this drive be possibly
[15:27:01] <zeeshan|2> drawing 2256 W?
[15:27:04] <zeeshan|2> that makes no sense at all..

[15:27:55] <zeeshan|2> fans
[15:28:31] <zeeshan|2> im mounting them vertically
[15:29:21] <archivist> so the bottom ones can heat the higher?
[15:29:37] <zeeshan|2> no
[15:29:45] <zeeshan|2> im talking about the drives themself
[15:29:52] <zeeshan|2> instead of mounting them flat, ill mount them standing up

[15:30:34] <zeeshan|2> i might be moving the bottom box to the top
[15:30:58] <zeeshan|2> or putting them side by side
[15:31:06] <zeeshan|2> so that way i can just have fans on the top, intake on bottom
[15:31:57] <zeeshan|2> so can anyone make sense of that nonsense? :P

[15:34:48] <archivist> zeeshan|2, they are up to 16A depending on class
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60320
[15:35:11] <zeeshan|2> archivist: it says c14 in the documentation
[15:35:12] <zeeshan|2> for this drive
[15:35:19] <zeeshan|2> which is 10A according to that wiki article
[15:36:52] <CaptHindsight> they don't mention how they arrived at Maximum Power Dissipation at Continuous Current W 119
[15:37:47] <zeeshan|2> FEA? :P
[15:37:51] <zeeshan|2> experiment? :P
[15:37:58] <archivist> I do not trust the WP article
[15:38:09] <CaptHindsight> if I knew which devices they are using for the outputs it would help, then I could just run the numbers for the cooling required
[15:39:06] <archivist> I assume they dont expect max continuous to ever occur anyway
[15:40:22] <archivist> we use 13A fuses for those connectors here, so that wp article has to be wrong
[15:41:16] <tjtr33> "Please improve it by verifying the claims made and adding inline citations"
[15:41:19] <_methods> some of the prongs onc the c13/14 are only rated to 6A
[15:41:20] <archivist> but kettles use the c15 version which will handle the temperature rise a bit better
[15:41:30] <_methods> they use thin connectors
[15:42:02] <CaptHindsight> the thermal management is based on what the maximum ambient temp will be and all the thermal resistance back to the internal die temp
[15:42:09] <archivist> I think the spring is stronger in the kettle version
[15:43:04] <zeeshan|2> <- just emailed the manufacturer
[15:43:10] <archivist> but you will never reach full load continuously unless being silly

[15:44:28] <zeeshan|2> According to the BE25A20AC Servo drive documentation, Max. continuous power is 2256W and the AC input is 120VAC. I = P/V = 2256/120 = 18.8A. Multiplying a safety factor of 1.25, the wire size rating should be 23.5A. According to this, I would require 10AWG wire. I looked at the data spec sheet and it says "Standard IEC 60320-C14 AC Receptacle (male pins)" for the AC input connector. Looking up thi
[15:44:38] <zeeshan|2> s spec, the C14 connector is only rated for 10A. 10A*120VAC = 1200W which is no where close to the 2256W max continuous power number. Could you please explain why there is such a big discrepancy and also what size cable I should be using?
[15:44:43] <zeeshan|2> fair enough question?
[15:45:23] <CaptHindsight> the next question should be clarification of the thermal specs
[15:45:32] <zeeshan|2> whats so confusing about it?
[15:45:52] <zeeshan|2> its saying it disspiates 120W when it's under full strain
[15:46:02] <zeeshan|2> thats as much as an old school light bulb
[15:46:09] <CaptHindsight> it's like their power specs, not enough information
[15:46:10] <zeeshan|2> easy enough to deal with :P
[15:46:29] <archivist> it is all specmanship, they get away with standard duty parts rather than continuous duty
[15:46:56] <zeeshan|2> theres no way that c14 connector would blow up even drawing 30Amps
[15:47:05] <zeeshan|2> the terminals are thick and big enough
[15:47:07] <zeeshan|2> it might run out
[15:47:07] <skunkworks> zeeshan|2, the drives are usually rated peak - continuous is usually Amps/2
[15:47:09] <zeeshan|2> but it wont set on fire
[15:47:09] <CaptHindsight> what does dissipate 120w mean?
[15:47:24] <CaptHindsight> it's a meaningless quantity
[15:47:24] <zeeshan|2> CaptHindsight: it means if you'ree in a closed system with the drive
[15:47:27] <archivist> internal heat of the drive
[15:47:32] <zeeshan|2> you'll notice 120W of heat generation.
[15:47:33] <skunkworks> so 25a peak 14amp continous

[15:47:49] <CaptHindsight> no, thats not what it means

[15:48:43] <zeeshan|2> skunkworks: hehe
[15:48:44] <zeeshan|2> :)
[15:49:07] <zeeshan|2> CaptHindsight: i am confused.
[15:49:12] <zeeshan|2> i think of it like a lightbulb
[15:49:19] <zeeshan|2> 100W lightbulb maybe uses 5W to generate photons
[15:49:26] <zeeshan|2> the rest of the 95W is heat
[15:49:53] <zeeshan|2> i'm thinking its the same way for this drive. when it's drawing 2256 W continuous, 119W of that is waste heat
[15:50:03] <zeeshan|2> which needs to be dissipated from the chamber that it's in
[15:50:47] <CaptHindsight> that's not it at all
[15:50:54] <zeeshan|2> why?
[15:52:06] <Rab> zeeshan|2, that seems like astonishing efficiency.
[15:52:15] <zeeshan|2> haha
[15:52:16] <zeeshan|2> :D
[15:52:17] <CaptHindsight> I'm trying to find a good article for you. Wakefield used to have a great overview
[15:52:29] <zeeshan|2> hey i fully admit
[15:52:34] <zeeshan|2> im not an electronics expert :P
[15:52:40] <archivist> depends how good the mosfets are
[15:52:56] <zeeshan|2> rab 120W of heat generated is unreasonable?
[15:52:58] <pcw_home> Drives are very efficient
[15:53:11] <zeeshan|2> i thought that weas the whole point of modern electronics
[15:53:18] <zeeshan|2> more efficient, less waste heat
[15:53:20] <zeeshan|2> smaller package
[15:53:22] <pcw_home> 120 probably means IGBTs
[15:53:47] <pcw_home> MOSFETs are more efficent but mainly for lower voltages
[15:54:01] <Rab> zeeshan|2, ~95% efficient. I don't know if it's reasonable or not, just impressive.
[15:54:06] <pcw_home> (well SIC Mosfets are changing that)
[15:54:23] <zeeshan|2> rab arent SMPS 99% efficient? :P
[15:54:29] <pcw_home> Yes that reasonable for a motor drive
[15:54:31] <zeeshan|2> like the meanwells
[15:54:33] <archivist> they vary
[15:54:34] <Rab> zeeshan|2, ha ha ha, no.
[15:55:34] <pcw_home> maybe high 90s (99% is very unlikely for a power supply)
[15:55:35] <zeeshan|2> haha
[15:55:38] <zeeshan|2> its 87% efficiency
[15:55:43] <zeeshan|2> for the 24V 10A
[15:56:07] <zeeshan|2> seems like they get more efficient for higher voltages
[15:56:09] <Rab> The 24V 10A I just looked up is 89% efficient, better choose that one. ;)
[15:56:41] <pcw_home> effiiciency costs money (and space)
[15:56:55] <PetefromTn_> Thank god for simple green LOL
[15:56:56] <zeeshan|2> high efficiency --> less cooling needs?
[15:56:56] <Rab> Oh, it's 3-phase 340-550VAC input.

[18:40:18] <PetefromTn_> I am actually thinking I quite like the cream white color inside there.
[18:40:38] <PetefromTn_> Plus I would not have to paint the inside of any of the cabinets just everything outside if I used that color
[18:40:51] <PetefromTn_> AND it would match my Cincinatti kinda which is also a cream color
[18:40:57] <PetefromTn_> light beige sorta
[18:41:25] <PetefromTn_> I refinished my old RF45 in a color like that and I quite liked it.
[18:41:29] <jdh> orange woudl be good for the Cincinatti too.
[18:41:37] <PetefromTn_> SHows dirt easy tho..
[18:41:42] <jdh> Bengal orange and black.
[18:41:56] <PetefromTn_> Purple with pink Polka dots?

[18:46:55] <PetefromTn_> Damn things are dangerous LOL
[18:47:21] <JT-Shop> tjtr33, when you cut with the grain that is noodling as the wood that comes out looks like noodles
[18:47:24] <PetefromTn_> I used to have a nice older one but it died and I could not fix it.
[18:47:35] <JT-Shop> you get chips when you cut across the grain

[19:26:00] <Tom_itx> got tired of taking the chains in for sharpening too so i got a grinder for that
[19:26:21] <Tom_itx> i like the little one because the handle is in the middle... very well balanced for tree climbing
[19:26:29] <Tom_itx> doesn't wear ya out near as quick
[19:26:44] <Tom_itx> top handle
[19:26:45] * JT-Shop doesn't climb trees any more... I bring them down to me
[19:26:51] <Tom_itx> me either
[19:26:55] <Tom_itx> not much anyway
[19:27:03] <Tom_itx> still got all the stuff though
[19:27:22] <Tom_itx> stihl are hard to beat though
[19:29:38] <JT-Shop> yea, I got the 021 in '97 and cut some huge trees down to build my house
[19:30:11] <Tom_itx> i got a spare bar for the old mac for trunks
[19:30:15] <Tom_itx> save it just for that
[19:30:44] <Tom_itx> it may be the 24", i don't recall
[19:30:52] <Tom_itx> i think i could get a 28 for it but didn't
[19:30:55] <JT-Shop> nice, that's big one
[19:31:15] <JT-Shop> the MS-291 is 20" max
[19:31:17] <Tom_itx> i did cut one down it wouldn't go halfway through though
