Looks good! Are you using a Pokeys or how did you implement the knobs?
What's the screen set you have there?
Dan

Hello all,
Thanks for positive feedback. Yes Dan you are right I'm using Pokeys for control panel and also for pendant. Screen set was made by me. Here are some more pictures.

You did a good work with screen set, Peter. I like the look.
Dan

Thanks Dan. What you are seeing in the pictures is automatic screen page. I have a total of 12 screen pages (still need to finish some). I have a main page and from that page you open 11 other function pages (automatic, edit, mdi , tools, reference, jog, probing, I/O,....). Some of the pages are activated with the knob on the control panel. For example if I want to run a program I need to choose automatic screen. and then press start.

Really nice job there, Peter, may I ask what the little LCD is on the lower side?
And may I also ask what keyboard that is?
Thanks for sharing,

Hello Dave, that blue LCD is from the computer. It's showing CPU temperature and some other things. Keyboard is TRUST, here is link http://www.trust.com/products/productpictures.aspx?artnr=16705

Very neat job Peter. The keyboard looks a little inconvenient when you need to type in MDI. Where did you get the pendant box.

Hello Zafar, I'm not using MDI that much but when you need something to type in it is not that inconvenient. At the begining I first plan to mount keyboard just below LCD but then I've changed my mind because I'm using control panel more often. Regarding pendant box I ordered it from RS Components.

Thanks Dan. Also I'm attaching picture of the cabinet which is almost finished, still need to add driver for rotary axis.

Cabinet looks neat. What are the drives you're using?
By the way, don't think you got any room left for another drive...
Dan

Hello Dan, drives I'm using are ESTUN EDB-08A and you can believe me there is plenty of room for another drive ;D

Very Sweet !!!

Hello,
I have made a little update to my machine. I have raised Z axis for 200mm to have more space underneath the bridge for use with longer tools.

Peter
