    • Z Axis travel

      To clarify the Z Travel, this is not the max cutting depth or the travel range of the actuator. Z travel is the distance downwards it can travel before hitting the spoiler board supports.

      The SharpCNC has two spoilerboard support configurations. One with a travel of 66mm, and a lower one with a travel of 106mm. The reason for the two configurations is that if the machine is always used to cut thin materials, for accuracy reasons it is better to have the work piece as close to the Z-Actuator as possible, so in this case the machine should be setup in the higher 66mm travel configuration.

      The higher configuration has a Z travel of 66mm, with a 12mm spoiler board, this will reduce the Z travel to 54mm. In this case 54mm is maximum thickness of material that will fit on the machine.

      To calculate the max cutting depth for a chosen piece of material it is:

      Max Cutting Depth = Z travel – Material Thickness

      For instance a setup with a 12mm spoiler board, the max Z travel is 54mm, so when cutting into a material 30mm thick the max cutting depth would be:

      Max Cutting Depth = 54 – 30 = 24mm

      This means with a 30mm piece of material it would not be possible to cut it the whole way through.

      The max thickness that can be cut the whole way through is half the Z travel. So with a Z travel of 55mm, 27mm is the maximum thickness of material that could be cut the whole way through. And for the lower configuration the maximum thickness that can be cut the whole way through is 47mm

      *IMPORTANT NOTE: We do not supply any of the 240v wiring for the PSU. Electrical safety regulations in Australia require that all 240v work be carried out by a licensed electrician, as such we discourage DIY wiring of the 240v wires. Any DIY work done on the 240V side will void any warranties on the entire kit.

       

      **NOTE: We carefully adjust your stepper drivers to suit your motors prior to shipping please be aware of making any changes to these settings not to overdrive the motors.

       

      The specifications of the stepper motors are as follows:

       

      2.45n/m

      Specification Value
      Step angle 1.8° ±5%

      Inductance per phase 4mH ±20%
      Holding torque 2.45Nm
      Detent torque 45mN/m

       

      Spindle Add-on

       

      Our 1.5kw Spindle + VFD option accepts ER11 collets only. The spindle is Air cooled for easy installation and maintenance.

       

      The 1.5kw spindle is actually a 3 phase spindle for extremely quiet and vibration free operation, Typically we ship either a 1.5kw or 2.2kw VFD (Depending on availability) to drive these spindles. The VFDs will accept either a single phase 240v or 3 phase input depending on what you have available.

       

      The diameter of this spindle is 65mm.

       

      IMPORTANT NOTE: We do not supply any of the high voltage AC wiring for the VFD or spindle. Electrical safety regulations in Australia require that all 240v / 3 phase work be carried out by a licensed electrician, as such we discourage DIY wiring of any high voltage wires. Any DIY work done on the high voltage side will void any warranties on the entire kit.

       

      **Please note:

      Due to the volatile nature of VFDs, CNC3D provide minimal support for configuring and setting up any VFD.

       

      Under Australian Law all 240V work MUST be completed by a licenced Electrician.

       

      If you do not have experience setting up VFD's, we do not recommend changing any settings yourself and to seek advice from your licensed electrician that is installing your VFD for you.

       

      Failing to configure your VFD correctly may result in catastrophic events occurring such as the VFD physically exploding if settings are not configured correctly prior to powering on any VFD - this may void your warranty

       

      Many domestic electricians do not have experience working with VFDs as they are often used in industrial environments, so you will want to check with your electrician before booking their services to ensure they are comfortable programming and wiring a VFD.

    • Build Difficulty

      Difficulty Rating: ★★★★☆

      To keep the costs of these machines down, they are provided as a full kit and you are required to do every part of the assembly, including wiring and setup.

      There is a lot involved in this and will require some mechanical knowledge on behalf of the person putting it together.

      We don't have a set time that this build will take. For someone with lots of hands-on experience with this sort of kit it can be done over a weekend, for someone who has never built anything like this before it can be a long process over multiple weeks.

      There are also certain parts that will require an electrician. Under Australian law no work may be done on any mains voltage wiring without holding a current electrical license.

      In the SharpCNC kit you will need an electrical license or a licensed electrician to wire the 24v power supply to the mains, as well as the 3-phase 240v spindle wiring to the spindle and the VFD. Not all domestic electricians are experienced or offer their services to work with VFDs as they are not commonly found in domestic environments. It may be worth calling around before placing your order to make your build as seamless as possible.

      This can be a challenging and time consuming build if you have not worked with a kit or machine like this before.

      If you aren't confident or need a faster solution, we offer our QueenBee and QB2 machines fully assembled, wired and tested for plug-and-play installation. You can compare machines here: https://www.cnc3d.com.au/compare

      CNC3D DOES NOT offer a build service for SharpCNC kit machines.
