Unfortunately & reluctantly I am selling my 2006 Shopbot 48x96 PRS Standard, due to family needs and involving Hospice. Asking $11,000, due to like new condition but negotiable. To collaborate, email...

Thanks for the replies guys. I'm going to try and post a video of the problem, which will probably help figure this out. I've never had this problem until recently and I've carved several projects...

I own a 2006 PRS Standard. The 2d seems to cut fine, with no position loss.

I'm carving three 6"Lx4.5"Wx1.125"thick moulding profile samples. I've carved several 3d carvings in the past with...

Thanks for the response.
So how do you tighten the spring tension and where is it located?

William

No I haven't tried that and that would be a good idea to do that. Just checked the voltage for the Gecko 202's and it states as follows:

G202 TERMINAL WIRING

POWER SUPPLY HOOKUP

(TERM....

Thanks. Yes Frank did. I checked the voltage and it was 52V so I cranked it down to 48V. Well I don't cut more than 2.75 ips on any material but I did slow it down to 1.25 ips on the cutting. Now...

Gene,
I'll have to check that on Monday. It should have enough though because it is dedicated just to shopbot and artcam and I purchased the computer within that criteria.

Thanks for responding,...

I meant to type ips and not ipm. Is it possible to edit these threads once posted?

In the video the motors start just fine but once a load is applied it just stops and vibrates. I've been having issues with one or the other sounding...

Thanks Scott.
Unfortunately since I am an amateur tech guy and know very little about the inner workings of the electronics in the control box, I was confused about the description of these parts....

It's Vexta stepping motors, model A7243-9412KTG 2-Phase 0.5deg/step

It is a 2006 prs standard with the tower control box and not the newer aluminum control box.

Having issues with position loss. This is different than past position losses. I called shopbot the other day and went through steps afterwards of potential problems. Following is what was happening...

Thanks for the tips guys. I definitely want a drag knife but I have only this weekend to finish this project.

Well, unfortunately the coating would not allow the water color to work properly on the paper surface.

I need some advice on cutting 1/8", 3/16" & 1/2" foam core board. I would use gator board, however, my daughter is working on an art project using water colors and her professor instructed her to use...

Thank you Brady, I suspect the switch is bad. I appreciate the information...William

So #3 & 4 are correct and #2 should be, what color? The tool is not sitting on X prox but light is on, so could it be a bad switch?

Just relocated my shopbot PRS Standard and hooked it up just as before. I attempted to home the X & Y axis, using the proximity switches, however, port #4 displays a red outer circle with green in...

What size CFM dust collector do I need for my ShopBot?

Thanks Butch.

I need a source for 3d vector art with cows in a field or rolling hills with some trees in the back ground. I checked vectorart3d.com but only found the cows. What other sources or website are out...

I looked at those lasers. The price is good but I dont see how you install it on a cnc. They're big! Guess I figured they were a lot smaller. About the size of a spindle motor or something.
