It's ALIVE! and running on Solar energy.
The ODrive system along with the Brushless DC Motor (BLDC) is very accurate, fast and has so much more torque than required to mill anything this machine can take.
This video covers the following: -
* Manually milling some aluminium features on each part.
* Assembling the drive unit (alongside CAD).
* Testing the ODrive at different speeds
* Testing the accuracy
The drive system uses 5M HTD (Heavy Duty Timing Belts and Pulleys) at 15mm Width to reduce the BLDC drive to 4:1, so that current can be reduced by a factor of 4 for each axis, allowing it to run well off small Lead Acid batteries.
The batteries are charged using a 50W Monocrystalline Solar Panel, giving around 250 to 300Wh of charge a day, this should be enough to run the mill (when it's complete) for around an hour (may need an upgrade).
The milling machine is an Axminster Sieg X1.
Once complete, I will share all the files (CAD, Arduino Sketch, G-Code, etc) on my website www.dev255.uk so that you can build one too. Plus I will include all the costs at the end of the project also.
All of this CNC Mill upgrade is to speed up my other project, a 24 Motor water-cooled power unit to drive an MG F vehicle through its existing gearbox.
Feel free to comment or ask any questions in the comments.
