The bottom frame of the cnc has been rebuilt. This was due to some errors in the machined surfaces that led to problems when assembling the machine. I figured it would be easier to remake the Y-axis and the X-axis frames than trying to fix the old ones. I now had access to better manufacturing methods and tools that allowed me to make a better product. This extra step will hopefully save me from a lot of headache later!

Kondor needs higher gantry side walls. So I thought why not make them from steel. Turns out, that is quite feasible indeed. By no means is this highly productive, but its good fun.
Cutting data and tool information in the video

Brief info on the machine:
CNC router made from Aluminium extrusion and plate
Roughly 675x1250x200mm working volume
Driven by 400W Delta Servos
Spindle: Jianken JGL80-2.2 ISO20 on VFD Hitachi WJ200
Controlled through linuxCNC

Today we’re converting a manual milling machine to CNC. We install high quality ballscrews, ballnuts, and angular contact bearings on first the Z axis and then the Y and X axis. We also install stepper motors. This video features tips and techniques that I have developed over the past 10 conversions or so. You’ll even see hardware from the first CNC conversion I ever did that was made on a manual milling machine. I learn something new every time. Please share your own CNC conversion tips and experience in the comments below.

This conversion utilizes the Centroid Acorn control board. Let me know if you would like to see video content on my specific setup:

Welcome to part 1 of a video series documenting the build of our new CNC plasma cutting table. In this video, I’ll explain the basics of plasma, applying it to the CNC process and the major components I will use.
Upcoming videos in the series will demonstrate testing the electronics, building the table, setting it up and finally, cutting some items on the table.

Items mentioned in this video, include:
Unimig Razor Cut 45 plasma cutter: https://www.unimig.com.au
4 axis CNC kit including 3Nm NEMA23 stepper motor, stepper motor driver and power supplies
Proma Elektronika’s MyPlasm CNC controller and plasma interface unit: https://www.proma-elektronika.com

In this video, I will start making a CNC plasma cutter with my own hands without experience and I will also conduct the first tests.
Join me and let’s see together what happens 😉
