Hi Mike,

Any luck with pricing on power supplies and motors yet? I'm going to spend the money either way, I might as well support you if I can get what I need.

MetalHead Tue 16 November 2010 21:55

I sent you a PM .

Cables
 
Ok everyone. I need to get some feedback on cables. I am about to order rolls of the F-CY-JZ in

20 Gauge

2 Core - Pricing now
4 Core - Price will be .88 per foot
8 Core - Price will be 1.32 per foot

I know from research we should be fine with the 20 guage wire.

What you will get will be a total length of your desired wire core count. NO CUT CHARGE.

Shipping will be about $25.00 for what ever amount you order.

I just want to find out who is interested in cable so I can get this piece moving.

Mike,

Count me in for the total quantity that will be needed ( 4' x 12' table ) for my build. As for the exact amount, when the time comes, I will need your help in trying toi figure it out.

Quick rough sketch of wire length required:

GL = Gantry Length; TL = Table Length; DCB = Distance to Control Box; WL = Working Length for strain relief, stripping, connections.

From Y-Car, or Gantry Far: GL + TL + DCB + WL + WL
From Gantry Near: TL + DCB + WL + WL
From Y-Car to Gantry Far: GL + WL + WL

For a 60" x 120" (4'x8' working area) table with 24" (2') allowances for connections and a wall mounted box needing 72" (6') to reach:

(3) 4-core for motors at 5'+10'+6'+2'+2' = 25' * 3 = 75'
(1) 4-core for motor at 10' + 6' + 2' + 2' = 20'
(1 ea) 8-core for low voltage sensors and controls, 2-core estop at 5' + 2' + 2' = 9'
(1 ea) 8-core for low voltage sensors and controls, 2-core estop at 10' + 6' + 2' + 2' = 20'

So 95' of 4 core, and 29' each of 8 core and 2 core. For the 4' x 12', 111' of 4 core, 34' each of 8 core and 2 core.

Don't forget the 25' (or 29') of spindle or router feed (for a router, that's a standard extension cord).

Mike,

Any plans to carry the standard IGUS cable carrier. I've reviewed several threads but so far have not found part # for what everyone is using. The other thing I have not found a source for is the gas shock, but that's not electrical.

smreish Fri 18 February 2011 07:34

McMaster Carr is a good source for both

Reid Supply also has the igus carrier or igus.com will sell you it from the online store.

Mike
Is this cable still available, or is there a newer better product available? What connectors are being used to connect the stepper motors back to the control box?

MetalHead Mon 23 July 2012 20:25

I have plenty in stock. This is good motion wire. Most have opted to omit connectors and wire from the motors all the way into the box through grommets to terminal blocks. Fewer fail points. The BC01 kit I also have in stock has a lot of the basics needed including a 20x20x10 NEMA 4/12 box.

Mrayhursh Mon 23 July 2012 21:17

Mike, I have already purchased the BC01 kit and 4 640oz NEMA 34 motors and 1 matched power supply from CV Supply great people to do business with. Talk to Mike (ha! ha!). What is the cost per foot of the 8 wire cable. How much is generally needed? Any other cable needed.

MetalHead Mon 23 July 2012 22:08

Ha !!! Guess I should check my records before responding :) !!! Wire is a kit. 82 feet of 8 core and 164 feet of 4 core. I just got two spools and need to check and make sure the price per sqft foot is going to hold as before. I'll PM you with an update tomorrow.

jask Tue 24 July 2012 00:02

per SQ/FT !!!? that is a lot of wire....:)

MetalHead Tue 24 July 2012 06:24

Oops that would be a lot of wire !!! Thx !

Mojo Fri 08 March 2013 15:21

Tom Ayres Fri 07 June 2013 14:23

Mrayhursh Fri 07 June 2013 14:52

Tom Ayres Fri 07 June 2013 16:41

I'm sorry for the confusion Hurshy, I am talking to Metalhead Mike.:)

ChuckS Wed 08 October 2014 18:05

Are there any updates to the offerings? All things (close to) equal, I'd rather support Mike, and maybe save myself some shopping headache.

MetalHead Thu 09 October 2014 06:18

This kit is still basically the same. A few changes have been made, but not many. My kits do save you a good bit of time for sure.

I have aditional parts as well and I can PM you a list.

hevertg Thu 09 October 2014 19:53
