General Mach Discussion / Re: Spindle stopped working, help!

« on: February 01, 2012, 04:25:43 PM »

It's fixed. for some reason I thought of reinstalling mach3 and it actually worked out well.

My problem with mach is that i have to use the version 1 wich the machine came with, if I install the version 3 I can't open big gcode files cause I don't have a licence for the newer version and I don't know what licence this machine came with but runs my files well

Thanks for all the help!

You can change the speed but only trough mach3 and I even tried to increase it to the max or min and nothing happens. It's actually the only part that is not responding, all the axis move perfectly

Yes, it flashes like if it was running normally but the router doesn't start. I checked the config a couple of times, turned off and on the machine and pc and still same problem.

What can I do?

Hi guys,

I have a very strange problem here. I was running my CNC machine this morning and it was running fine. I turned it off for about 4 hours and when I came back and tried to run a cut the spindle would simply not work at all. all the axis move perfectly and I even plugged the spindle directly to check if it's running and it's fine, but it's not running from mach, either if I try to make it run or if I run a program.

Can someone help me please?
