I want to add a stepping motor or servo motor to my M7130 grinder on the handwheel so that he can realize automatic feed. How can I achieve this?
Mechanical, you can put the hand wheel into gear, a gear and then mounted on the stepper motor or servo motor, the stepper motor or servo motor is fixed, the program, with a small PLC and a touch screen on the line, write your own program, MITSUBISHI is OK, easy to use. If you use a stepper motor, I suggest you better add an encoder or a grating ruler so that you can detect the position of the wheel. Hope to adopt
Then look at the tool holder on the lathe
