Hello and Happy New Year to All..
I have an Electronic Variable Speed Manual Lathe and would like to set up a CSS function. The Frequency Drive Unit is a Yaskawa G7 and according to the engineers there, the drive will support this function, but they could not provide any specifics on how to physically set up the cross slide or what was needed to accomplish this. Since the Lathe has a spindle speed sensor and tachometer, I am assuming that all that is needed is some sort of scale that puts out an analog signal (but I am just guessing) to send to the EVS. I would appreciate any information that you guys could provide. I should also mention that the lathe has a Fagor 2 axis DRO, although I dont know if this helps.
Thank you,
Steve
