Video Description:
It is time to take Dr. D-Flo’s barebones CNC mill and upgrade it with components that will improve its throughput, repeatability, and cut quality. The goal is to have a capable machine for eventually producing products to sell. This is the first video in this upgrade series and is focused on improving the linear motion of the mill. To eliminate resonance (i.e. vibration) and other movement anomalies, Dr. D-Flo is swapping out the open-loop stepper motors for DMM AC Servo motors. Dr. D-Flo discusses the differences between Servo and Stepper motors and how servo motors are “position-aware” through closed-loop encoder feedback. Dr. D-Flo walks through the process of tuning a servo motor, which is much easier than people on the forums make it out to be.
In addition to installing the servo motors, Dr. D-Flo also adds the Mini FogBuster Mist coolant system. The FogBuster is a Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) device that works perfectly for open-air mill setups because it dispenses just enough coolant to keep the endmill cool, which minimizes the mess associated with coolant/lubricant. Further, the FogBuster uses a patented technology to prevent the generation of aerosols (known as atomizing), so when you are in a small and enclosed space like Dr. D-Flo’s garage the amount of coolant you will inhale will be kept to a minimum.
These upgrades combine to create some awesome parts, so if you enjoy watching a CNC mill at work then stick around until the end! Get subscribed because there will be more awesome upgrades to come.
