General Mach Discussion / Motor Problem
« on: October 15, 2011, 12:50:47 AM »
Hi everyone!!

I'm having a little trouble getting my motors to work/spin/move.... When I first received my motors/drivers/breakout board I wired them all together and while using mach 3 it all seemed to work.

12 months later I have now finally finished my mill but can't get the motors doing much.

I have been following mach 3 installation instructions but with little success. Whenever I try to jog the machine sometimes I hear the motors (high pitch noise). Other times the shaft does 'spin' but its more like its grinding; very slow and noisey and in only one direction. My limit switches and e-stops all work fine.

I have checked my wiring all seems fine. I've checked to see if I have voltages where appropriate.

Changing the velocity and acceleration slides doesn't seem to have any effect on the motor?

Any thoughts Cheers.
