Cnc Engraving Machine - Fgi Fd100 Frequency Inverter With High-speed Motor Control | Automatic Operation, Low Energy Consumption, Computerized Plc Control, Exceptional Torque At Low Speed

1. CNC engraving machine has been widely used in various industries, especially in advertising, building decoration and stone processing and so on. At present, the main transmission system of CNC engraving machine adopts stepless speed control, of which there are two kinds of frequency spindle system and servo spindle system. Generally, the spindle is driven by DC/AC motors with a transmission belt or a reduction gear inside the belt and spindle box (for greater torque). Because of the wide speed range and stepless speed regulation of spindle motor, the structure of spindle box is greatly simplified. Therefore, inverter is widely used in CNC machine due to the high cost efficient. And FGI FD100 series frequency inverter has rapidly risen on the application of CNC machine with its unique performance and superior cost efficient.

2. The mainstream of CNC engraving machine is composed of computer, controller, and engraving machine body. Its working principle is as below:
The specialized engraving software in computer will perform pattern design and type setting, and then the related information will be transmitted to controller by computer, and be transformed to pulse signal driving stepper motor or servo motor by controller, to control the carving knife position of X Y Z axis in engraving machine body. At the same time, frequency inverter will be started by controller to drive the engraving head to rotate at high speed, cutting, drilling, and milling the material on host table. At last, the various flat or three-dimensional reliefs, figures, and characters designed by computer can be carved, to realize automatic engraving operation. Different special configurations of knife tools can be adopted in accordance with the requirements of different materials and process.


3. Solutions of FD100 variable frequency drive

Adopt the following control modes with FGI FD100 series AC drive

(1) Select control mode to be V/f;

(2) Select terminal control as command source--two-lines terminal control: FWD is forward running, REV is reverse running;

(3) Select analog setting as frequency source (computer control board outputs 0-10VDC), and only need to input frequency command to AI1 terminal;

(4) Running speed is around 0-24000 r/min, corresponding to running frequency 0-400Hz (2 stages high-speed motor);

(5) Set ACC/DEC time according to customer needs, which is usually around 3-5S. And the inverter with braking unit is needed due to the high-speed operation;

(6) Need fault output signal (relay output) and fault recovery signal.



4. Conclusion

The CNC engraving system with FGI frequency inverter could achieve steady and reliable operation, and gain high economic benefits for customer. And FD100 solution is highly praised by customers through the actual production test. The specific advantages are as below:

(1) Small speed fluctuation within the full speed range;

(2) Large torque at low-speed, which guarantees the low-speed cutting;

(3) Short ACC/DEC time;

(4) Low temperature rises in high-speed operation of motor.
