General Mach Discussion / servo motors overheating and losing steps when jogging
« on: August 14, 2015, 09:02:11 PM »
Hello everyone this is my first post here.
I am troubleshooting this mill, using gecko 320x and a smoothstepper board, with a power supply kit from automation technologies.
Motors heat up very fast when on idle, and when i try to jog continually i get steps, even with the MPG i still dont get continuous movement. and sometimes it goes the opposite direction a couple of steps.
Any ideas?
Thanks
