PwnCNC and the XYZ touch probe

Hey John, hey Jim @JimHatch, hey all,

@Aiph5u

But what other users have done, finding the Mechatron and other german industry manufacturers too expensive, was not to buy a cheap Chinese spindle, but a more expensive Chinese spindle,

It is worthwhile to look at this direct comparison in terms of vibrations, between a cheap ebay spindle vs. a Jianken spindle (video)

Also my excellent Omron MX2 is produced in China by its Japanese Designer too but I would never come the idea to compare it with a cheap chinese VFD. The Omron MX2 or Hitachi WJ200 VFDs are excellent VFDs used in the industry. They are very smart and state-of-the-art and not comparable to the cheap chinese VFD crap. I would also always think of the Invertek Optidrive E-3 since it is produced in the UK (not only this means that it is not produced in China, but I think the UK manufacturers need our support more than ever). I pay € 283,71 here: Invertek ODE-3-220105-1F42. That’s a good price for a VFD with Sensorless Vector Control that is not made in China!

I am happy to get my PC motherboards made in Germany to build PCs and CNC controllers with them.

PS: John, have you seen this list of spindle manufacturers?
