Hello my friend. A good choice. Thank you for the introduction and information. Best wishes. Tests and trials are successful. See you. big greetings. Stay healthy and happy....
Looks like a good machine for the money. If possible put the cutters up a bit higher into the collet. Reduces vibration and less chance of breaking cutters.
I have one too, but I’ve already remodeled it. Because that Usb driver isn't really good rather bad. And the whole machine is inaccurate. On my own, the 2 axes of the X-axis are curved or already curved. The Z axis is also swinging ... I have replaced the controller with a UC300-5LPT Ethernet so you can now handle the limit switches, Normally the shape can be measured. At YT, the videos don’t completely cover reality ... not a bad machine but not a good one either. It needs to be dealt with a lot to be able to mill meaningful things to size (± 0.05). and 10l more coolant is very little, I have 40l and 40-45 ° celcus for 4-5 hours of milling.
I think you got a faulty cnc from the start. Mine runs great, makes a lot of projects for me. I use it for mass production and i didn't changed anything on it. I'm happy with this cnc for it's price.
Hello there, I bought the machine a few days ago, installed Mach 3 however the machine doesn’t seem to connect to my pc, do you still have the instructions to set it up at hand by any chance? Or what to do with the files you provided. Thanks beforehand.
I just bought it today. I don't think it'll run candle, tho. I think you have to run Mach3 (or the like). Reason being, this machine doesn't understand g-code, only direct stepper motor control. I'll let you know when I get mine
Hey there, new to cnc and I just bought one of these. Would I be able to pay you to help me with the set up and installation to get things going? Going back and forth with the manufacturer is a nightmare.
Salut. Am cumparat un CNC la fel ca al tau si acum invat sa lucrez cu el. Poti te rog sa imi spui ce lichid ai pus pentru racire? Antigel? Ce concentratie? Multumesc
So will this machine work on 110v. I seen where it saying 220v. Is there a switch to change it over, and I also saw it works better with a 32bit computer _ what's the issue if you only have 64bit.
There is no switch for 110v. I used windows 7 with 32 bit but worked just fine on windows 10 x64. No problem there. You need to check with the seller the voltage question.
Hello thanks for the video, I got the same machine and did everything but the machine does not start, do you know if there is something I have to change in the settings I mean in the software (mach3)? I'll appreciate any help.
Salut! Ma bate gandul sa achizitionez un astfel de CNC pentru a taia placaj de mesteacan cu grosimea de 12mm. Din experienta ta, crezi ca merita investitia?
Da, mi-am făcut treaba cu el. Am tăiat destule până nu a mai făcut față și a trebuit să iau mai mare și mai puternic. Trebuie avut grija la viteze, eu am abuzat puțin și mi s-au dus rulmenții de la spindle in câteva luni.
Hello. Great video. It helped me to assembly my 6040. I have only a question for you: about blue liquid you insered with water, is this anti algae??? thank you
@@DanielH Thanks. I have access to Vcarve Pro at school and I'm using the trial version at home to practice. Not sure if Vetric will allow me to export Gcode from the school program. Can't really afford aspire right now. Doing very simple design for rotary 4th axis on the chinese 6040.
Salut Daniel. Urmeaza sa-mi cumpar si eu in cateva saptamani un 4060 cu 4 axe. Poti te rog sa-mi spui cam ce nivel de zgomot produce in special pe metal? Nu stiu cat de izolat am eu spatiul destinat si sa nu deranjez vecinii. Voi fi nevoit sa las masina sa lucreze si noaptea la cateva proiecte. Multumesc anticipat, cu drag Florin.
Pe metal nu am lucrat dar pot spune că în lemn face zgomot destul de mare. Depinde de ce prelucrez, cu freza noua e silențios, pe măsură ce se uzează, face scandal. Daca veți folosi cu freze de gravat, cred că nu va fi așa zgomotos. Oricum nu e o avere de făcut o cutie izolata fonic și ai scăpat de griji.
For hobby use it's good. I tried to make mass production and the spindle bearings started to make sounds and the ball screw started to loose parts and needed to reduce the speed because was blocking and loosing steps. It's a good machine but I pushed it over the limit. For hobby use or maybe just prototypes it's perfect
@@DanielH alright.. my primary use would be cutting alu parts for my rc collection maybe occasionally to make a couple bucks and i would like to cut a waterblock for my watercooled desktop. Not sure at what point it would become mass production though?
Daniel I just bought the cncest 6040 and with no instructions I have been in contact back and forth with my supplier and have gotten no where I got the vfd set up and working I downloaded Mach 3 and installed it I am using a windows 10 Intel i7 10th Gen lap top I can run the spindle in manual mode from the vfd only I can not get any axis to move. I did receive config. Settings from my supplier and still can get nothing working in Mach 3 ican see the dro reading but none of the axis move Can you offer any advise? I am new to cnc
I went up to 2000mm/min but the bearings on the spindle were done in less than 6months. But 1500mm/min with 4mm endmilland 2.5 mm/step works like a charm. Depends on what you're working on also.
@@DanielH Yes I can manually turn spindle on from the controller. How you turn spindle on from Mach3? I run the G-Code with M3, it runs the line and moves on but the spindle doesn't turn on.
Yes. But don't go like me, i used 6mm end mill, 3.5mm per step and 1500mm/min feed rate. I killed the y axis ball screw and spindle bearings. If I were more careful, this cnc would still be running.
Hi Daniël! Looks like you got it working right from the start? Didnt you have any problems figuring out how it works with Mach3? I judt received mine, but everything i do doesnt work. I will try you configfile tomorrow. Its kind of my last resort. Perhaps you can do a video on how to setup mach3 with the cncest6040?
Hi! Thank you for this video because I am interested in this machine. I would like to know how the installation takes place on PC, where should we put the configuration files for it to work with mach3? Is there a PDF or a tutorial? I prefer to be sure before buying! Can you explain to me please? I would be grateful to you!
Yes i did have it. It's in the first comment. But other people who bought something similar with mine didn't. It's a lottery. After you get it, i will instruct you to connect if you don't have any instructions

How do you resolve the spindle not turning on? You set the frequency from 50hz to 400hz?
This is how you made my keychain. Thanks!
No no, it was made with a laser. Video coming soon..

Foarte buna achizitie, sa-l folosesti cu bucurii
Nu prea e bucurie când ai de lucru. Dar mersi de urare
@@DanielH 🤣🤣🤣 tare răspunsul, nu ma așteptam.
What hardware are you using to mount the spoil board to the aluminum bed?
Looks like a good machine for the money. If possible put the cutters up a bit higher into the collet. Reduces vibration and less chance of breaking cutters.
I know now. I tried and it can feel a difference

pls
which post processor did you use for the machine?
I like how they sent instructions and software with yours... WOuld be nice if they did that with all of them... :|
They are different sellers and different manufacturer. Some of them care about their customers, some don't
Someone needs to make a installation software video on this Machine. I was thinking on buying it .

You need to check with the seller the voltage question.
Did it come with the top wood board?
No, just aluminum board. The mdf was added by me
Hello I have same machine and I want to notice you that the cables of spindle and step motors are poor quality. If you can change them.
Thanks for the heads up.
Does the spindle start automatically or do you have to click a button?
Can work both ways. I use vectric aspire and by default before moving from home point, first it starts the spindle automatically.
Hello what is that blue wire connecting to the input of the back of the CNC spindle controller? And does that go to your computer
I think it's the USB connector. That way you control the CNC
@@DanielH thanks mate

It's a little hard without limit switches but still usable. Also the maximum work area is somewhere around 580x380mm.
