General Mach Discussion / Mach Spindle Load Meter.
« on: November 27, 2005, 08:23:05 PM »
Hi Guys
Just finished signing up and reading all the interesting posts. Man, this CNC stuff is exciting. Can't get enough of it.
I do have a question on installing a Load Meter for the Spindle Motor and having it show up in Mach. I am planning to use a 3 phase Motor and a VFD. From what I have found so far, most of the VFD's do not have any type of output signal for the amount of currant the Motor is drawing? I will also be using a Peter H. IOMod Board if this would help? Has anyone installed a Spindle Load Meter? Thanks for the help.
Regards
