Relocation of SLB, VFD and wiring

Hey all, just thought I’d share my mods so far.

Built a small shelf on back side of my Altmill where I relocated my VFD and SLB to.

Rerouted the wiring to the back, replaced the cable chain with a slightly different one and switched which way it runs.

To my ocd this is a much cleaner setup.

I am working on making some mods to my gControl setup as well, building off some one else’s design.

Also, the rotary will be getting a different home at some point as well.

Hi There, What is a VFD and a SLB. I am really really new.

VFD - Variable Frequency Drive - the thing that powers the spindle and sets the spindle RPM’s
SLB - Super Long Board - the thing that drives the position and speed of the spindle, the heart of the CNC router. It’s controller.

Hi Jens,

Thanks for the information
