Love your work mate keep it up

Congrats, very nice job, I know the amount of work it represents.

Great job, Maxim! I am thinking to replace my Clough 42 ELS with yours.

you did such a fantastic job that you have inspired me to try by myself. I will do it on a slightly bigger lathe and for now with one only motor. I have to tell you that the design of the controller is better than of a profesional company. Very well done. In my opinion you might contact one of this lathe companies and do a deal with them. Bravo. Best regards from Florence, Italy

@@MaximKachurovskiy You are right, but it could be an idea. For example you pick the company of your lathe. They would be surly interested in selling a lathe with a ELS that would make them quite competitive. You can tell them that you make a package that suits PERFECTLY their lathe, and provide the ready kit for them. Sorry if I do YOUR business, but it would so nice for you as you have put so much effort. Ah,ah,ah...now the business man is speaking out of me 🙂

Mate! Great work and next on my wish list from Australia. Would be good to add on your website what’s included/what we also need to get in the way of an encoder that works best for you. I can make and adapt from what you provided, as I intend to add a joystick as well, but you may increase your customer base for those that aren’t quite capable of extrapolating and making things work. I was going to make something like this for myself but for the price you’re offering, I think would be far more cost-effective grabbing one of yours.

Thanks! You're right, there's a lot to be done in terms of documentation - we'll get there :) A joystick will fit nicely in the 2 remaining terminals. It's supposed to be cost-effective for everyone to have some people to specialize :) Nice Shopify store you got there!

@@SharafV it's actually nice to keep those things independent since you can speed up or down or pause the cut any time with a big familiar potentiometer. It makes sense to stop the motor on command from the controller when the operation is done though, will think about it 👍

Hi Maxim, watching your channel for some time. I like your projects very much. Now waiting for my RC210E-600 lathe coming from China. There is no HW available at your site. Old one sold out and H4 not present. I would like to upgrade from the single axis to your H4 controller, but will I have to do all the HW stuff myself? Another question: The chinese controller has combined display for the RPMs and leadscrew parameters. How shall I combine it with H4? Keep the Chinese controller for RPMs and tap the signal from encoder to H4 while keeping the signal from encoder to the chinese controller, so that it gets what it needs to display the RPMs. Thank you in advance for help.

Hi @tutinek69! Thank you. I'm only shipping to 8 countries so sadly looks like I won't be able to sell one to you yet. On hardware, I'm selling just the controller - you might be able to reuse rotary encoder from your lathe and the stepper motor. Not sure if you'd be able to reuse the stepper driver - sometimes they are integrated into the main board and can't be controlled externally. H4 has the RPM display but I agree it's nice to have it on that top display. Perhaps you'd manage to connect one encoder to both controllers? That'd be a bit risky of course, some kind of electrical failure could take out all of them. At least make sure that encoder operates at 5V. Cheers!

Максим, сама разработка контроллера великолепна, но почти всё, кроме нарезки резьбы и конуса, просто не к чему, абсолютно не расчитано на производство деталей в большом количестве, так как оси уже управлаються моторами, легче создавать УП и резать детали десятками и сотнями, даже для изготовления одной какой-то более менее сложной детали через управление твоим контроллером займёт больше времени, чем созданная на компе УП, а в основном конечно респект
