Spindle does not work Micromill 2000

Re: Spindle does not work Micromill 200. by Martin » Mon 02 Nov, 2009 10:29 am. The Micromill is fitted with a 90 volt DC 0.37KW motor. You will need to set Switches S1 & S2 to 50-100V. S1 = off. S2 = on. Then set the pots to the same position as the on the faulty unit. The motor will not be stable at very low rpm.

If it's a denford or micromill from the same general year model they will be exactly the same. I don't know how far before/after the year 2000 they didn't have any changes, but from my online reading it appears that they used the same basic control board for quite a few years with minor changes (upgrade to USB, slightly different safety …

Denford or Boxford CNC mill

These seem to be an easier path to follow compared to a manual mill conversion. My initial research suggests a Denford Novamill might be a good option - newer and better spec than a Starmill, and smaller than a Triac (which wouldn't fit!). Alternatively a Boxford 190 VMC could work.

G code errors

My only assumption is that QuickCAM 3D, VR 5 and newer machines understand G19. So when it is post processing it is creating a program which contains commands that the Micromill 2000 machines don't understand. This is why VR5 is crashing mid program as the micromill doesn't understand what the command is and hangs.
