Proma 150 in depth look

[@billg1871]

Your video is better explained in common sense detail than even Premier's THC setup video. I am having some issues with diving and the torch moving my plate during a cut, rendering the part bad. Still playing with the height....

[@practicalfabricator]

Thanks! If it's diving keep increasing voltage

[@jamesrossmotors]

Great video. Thank for all that valuable information

[@MicroMachinesSask]

If you would run self test on THC , if you measured voltage from Up and Down signals what would they be? I'm having issue, everything is set up as you have it but if I try to run test without plasma on my UCCNC does not receive any signals, and if I select active low , depending which side i select the axis moves to that direction without THC giving any signals

[@practicalfabricator]

As far as the signal it's switched. It's dry contact in the proma 150. Voltage in is the same as out

I saw your gantry moving at the end of the video as you were talking about the SD- so unrelated to the THC: are you able to program limits into your Mach 3? I tried it and reversed the A and Y motors. I would love to know my table can't crash and I saw one video explaining it but it wasn't able to do it.

[@practicalfabricator]

You can, but it just doesn't work well. You'd need a better break out board that can have physical limit switches

[@reillyloayza1963]

thank you for your video I wanted to know if you programmed something in mach3 in plug-in control configuration? Thank you

[@practicalfabricator]

Nothing special. In Mach3 I assigned THC up/down in ports and pins

i could use a little help on your post processor in sheetcam what post processor are you using? the one i have is premiere plasma if this is the same as yours did you have to make any changes to the code in the post processor other then the offset. for the THC

[@practicalfabricator]

I'm using the premier post. I'm my other video I mod it to go negative. Otherwise all stock

[@enigmamotorsport]

Hello great video! Question did you still need to have a switch for floating head acting as probe? Thanks

[@practicalfabricator]

Yes. That is handled by the post processor in Sheetcam and allows it to stay on zero. This can also be done manually however.

[@enigmamotorsport]

Hello again, can you share the test that you show on your video? I finally has the proma to work on test mode, but no able to get it to work on mach 3. Thanks

When you change input signals is when you have proma sd , for this proma 150 this is not necessary
