Control Panel use of KB emulatBy 2003-11-09 08:09:43 UTCon
This is a full preliminary draft design (for comments) of a control pendant for a full function machine tool (mine is a Bridgeport). It uses a new design based on a keyboard emulator to reduce cabling complexity. The dessign was coordinated with MACH2, but should be pretty generic.
- Bridgeport Controller Pendant 1 .jpg Internal/External cabling diagram showing degree of simplification achieved by using a keyboard emulator. All components are available from multimple sources/manufacturers and the design is pretty specific hardware agnostic.

- spintube3.jpg hexapod actuator - Closeup of lower end of spin tube, with nut affixed to tube. As spin tube rotates (caused by a motor, located at the top of the spin tube), the nut is forced to turn on the screw (the screw being prevented from turning by a universal attachment to the tool platform). This turning of the nut around the screw shortens and extends the screw/tube pair, thus functioning as an actuator.
