    The CNC journey is far from over, but this video is the last in the series of construction and components videos that I've made over the course of one year. In this finale we are looking back at a common Chinese 2.2 kW spindle and its VFD, .... does anybody want to write descriptions for me?

    A machinist once told me that the "mild steel" that we buy for projects is a melted mixture of all kinds of scrap steel, including ball bearings. Sometimes they don't quite melt completely, so you can indeed run into "nuggets" of really hard material within a block.

    • @Volt64bolt
      @Volt64bolt 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Never heard that before. I guess if it’s cheap stuff from China, but most graded mild steel has to conform to specific standards

    • @craigperry5662
      @craigperry5662 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sorry but I think that is complete and utter rubbish, even the crappiest of Chinese steel is better than that. The reason the tool got red hot is because it was spinning way to fast. The surface speed is critical to tool heating and therefore tool life. Spin it too fast and it will last but a little while then go red hot and then it rubbish.

    If you freeze the bearing and heat up the holder you can put them together easily, since the bearing will contract and the holder will expand. WHen they get back to room temperature, they will be a perfect fit "impossible" to remove.

    The sparks as you approached break through on that helical ramp are due to the material thickness being so low, and therefore also the work cutting surface rigidity, that the tool simply rubs against it rather than cutting it. At work we just let the machine run as it does this, it doesn't seem to have an consequences, but then that condition on our machines only lasts for a second or two.

  • @Giblet535
    @Giblet535 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I covet your CNC. I focused my money/effort on DIYing rigid CNC gantries, and I cheaped out on a "spindle" (Makita mini router) for the proof of concept. I'm surprisingly happy with the results, even using a crap spindle, and even though that spindle is the source of nearly all defects in the system now, I'm happy. It will easily mill a PCB with your test PCB artwork, cutting copper clad to the depth of the copper only, but not the adhesive. So, what proof did I achieve? I proved that the spindle is important, but lies in that broad category of increasing costs, diminishing returns. The gantries/drive are the most critical pieces in the system, so that's where the greatest ROI is found. Don't cheap out on those.

    Yay, never thought I'd see components of my employer here (the blue one)! Cool :-)

    Wow... That's more than amazing! 😮
    Some day I want to build a CNC machine... But a hobby grade one, let's say. 😬

    Great build. Really well documented, and edited. Here’s some suggestions for more rigidity, since I’m in the business of designing cnc components.
    The clam shell clamp that holds the motor could be made as wide as the horizontal linear rail spacing. Grab motor as low as you can go with clamp. HSK is a great tool holder, but with excessive tool stick out, you know you’re sacrificing rigidity. Choke up on the tools as much as possible. Use proper end mills in climb milling mode, high feed low radial depth of cut if you can, it’s like a Daytron build size wise. Rapids and feeds?

    A great video. Thanks for sharing. I was very much looking for it.

    Awesome video! I think some coated high flute (5 or more) end mills will offset your lacking torque at low rpm’s.
    High surface speed causes the raw carbide to heat up very quickly in steel.
    Very impressive machine!

    Awesome! This is something that I would love to do!

    My CNC has been in storage for a few months while I move. I have a Huanyang Spindle/VRD. Um, perhaps I will test the VFD--with the motor disconnected. I am sorry you were bitten by that, but thank you for sharing.
    But, but, you passed over stack of belleville washers. I feel that every time someone makes something from then that's not an anti-personnel mine, perhaps they deserve a little credit.
    I've read on CNCZone.com that people have reported less rusting when using distilled water instead of tap water. I made some Koolmist up for my CNC, always stronger than recommended. It works nice. I have also used some to cut a 120mm fan hole though a 3mm stainless plate--with a battery powered saber-saw : ) Without cooling a bi-metal blade only made it 25mm. With it, it finished 2 cuts.
    You have a great channel. Thanks for making videos.
    Though, I guess my channel will grow to the point where I get free swag in the mail : (
    (Scuffs feet, looks down.)

    Marco, I am always happy to receive & watch your videos; even if I have no particular interest in the subject matter. :) Ausgeseihnet!

    Watch out for your CAM's default helix entry radius size, that tiny cylinder of material standing in the center of the of the pocket can chip end mill teeth when it breaks free.
    Great project, & great videos to go with!
