My New Control Station
« on: January 29, 2011, 07:32:58 PM »
This is my control station for my new CNC Router

I'm happy its completed and I may add without "blowing" a fuse since I dont have experience with electrical staff.

If you see something wrong pls let me know (its working now)

Thanks

Looks pretty good to me. Only thing I would change is the wire nuts. I never like them in any thing automated. Just adds to the trouble shooting later.

Use DIN rail and contact blocks.

I used terminal blocks on mine.  They are really easy to set up.  I just finished redoing my control box and will post Picts too.
