    Triac dimming

    It sounds as though you have SMPS switch mode P.S.'s, these do not take to SCR dimming, the most reliable is a linear supply, either standard EI transformer or Toroidal, these will often take Triac dimming on the input, but secondary is best, if possible. M.

    Connecting wires

    You did not mention what part of the CNC system this involves? If it is integral to the machine, although I see you are in Lithuania, there are usually regulation's in place for installations in an industrial environment, for e.g. in N.A. we have the NFPA79 which covers the electrical codes for...

    Which relay should I use?

    Relays made to switch very large DC inductive loads have special qualities built in in the form of arc quenching such as magnetic arc-blowout etc, when a contact carrying this type of load opens that does not have protection, a plasma arc can be produced that continues to conduct Well after the...

    Help with sensing a stopped sprocket

    I have initially worked on the premise of Relay energized to run, this makes it fail safe in as much as if the power or the unit should fail, it will stop the VFD. Otherwise it could have failed without the operator knowing it. Also it would be a nice advantage to use the Up-To-Speed feature out...

    Varnish vs enamel

    That appears to be a form of Conformal coating which is aimed at circuit boards etc, if so it is a little different from winding varnish that is very hi-temp rated and can be dipped and baked as in motors/coils etc. M.

    Help with sensing a stopped sprocket

    The method I have used is the VFD is stopped when any two pulses are longer than the min setting. It will automatically reset when when the sprocket starts up above the min rpm. Craig, did you say the when the VFD is stopped this way, does it automatically stay stopped until manually or...
