How To Install a Spindle Upgrade on Longmill CNC Routers
Рет қаралды 3,526
Күн бұрынThis step-by-step tutorial explains how to install a spindle upgrade on the Longmill MK1 and MK2 CNC routers.
If you are upgrading your Longmill CNC router to a spindle, I walk you through the prosses each step of the way. We are installing the PwnCNC spindle plug-and-play systems in this video.
Be sure to check out PwnCNC spindle kits for Longmill, CNC4Newbies, Onefinity, Millright, Xcarve, Shapeoko, and spindle kits for other benchtop machines.
The spindle kit we are installing in this video is a PwnCNC 80mm, 110v water-cooled unit.

check your spelling, (prosses) is not a word. I think you mean process!

Can I purchase the quick disconnect for the spindle? I have a spindle and pump. Great job!

This was exactly what i needed. looking to order my longmill next month along with the spindle and wanted to make sure i had everything for the water cooled spindle.

JNKBCS, glad to hear this one helped you brother! I bet you are excited to upgrade.

I'm thinking, why not make the holes for the fluid lines with the cnc, before starting the project of upgrade. Also, i would have cut a groove in the bucket to just under the line of the lid. That way the lid will be pretty tight against dust and debris. Just my thoughts. Thanks Garrett for an awesome video.

ernsteliden6719, that is a great idea brother! I like that. Give it a shot and see how it goes.

I recommend adding a flow indicator to any water cooler for a spindle. This lets you know at a glance if there is good flow.

Hi Garrett, I designed a fan shroud for the fan on top of the VFD. The shroud should stop wood chips and shavings getting inside the VFD. I put the design files on cults3d.

QUESTION: Do you have a link to buy that larger Drag Chain or have the digital file?

Hi Joseph. Yes, here it is → amzn.to/3uVoX8b

Just watched the video, thanks for the info because my MK 2.5 is ordered, the spindle is ordered, so I'm trying to learn as much as I can about the installation process. Question, why 3 larger drag chains if the router only uses 2?
@IDCWoodcraft Ай бұрын
mikewalden2243, Congratulations on your new MK 2.5 and spindle order! The reason for three larger drag chains is to provide flexibility for potential future upgrades or additions to your machine setup. It's always good to have extra capacity for any enhancements you may want to make down the road. Happy woodworking!

What do i need to do to the z axes motor
@garygraham3915 4 ай бұрын
Pls don't forget to mention that moving to a pwncnc spindle you loose the ability to use the sienci labs laser unit. I use both. Love the pwncnc spindle just bought one.

garygraham3915, good point on that one brother! It would be amazing to be able to have support for both.

I don't see the link for the flowmeter
@IDCWoodcraft 27 күн бұрын
Gemitaur, Hey there! Thanks for checking out the video. I recommend reaching out to PWN CNC directly for more info on the flowmeter! They should be able to guide you in the right direction my friend!

why not use automotive antifreeze for coolant? My understanding is that windshield washer fluid is pretty corrosive.
@IDCWoodcraft 4 ай бұрын
jayfluegel7401, that would work well too brother! You need to keep antifreeze safe around pets thought as it is toxic.
@ernsteliden6719 2 ай бұрын
I was thinking the same, but then a thought that in case of a leaking i much rather have etanol on everything then glykol. No mess with wider fluid.
