Techsoft TS400 Main Board - looking for

[paolo8453]

I'll post this for any future visitors to the forum. Or any visitors from the future!

Anyone that is breaking a TS-400 give me a shout as I'm after a main board.

Cheers

Hi Paolo,
doesn't sound good....what is the nature of the problem?

Regards,
Allan

The main board doesn't power up. Power actually comes via the spindle board but I've swapped the spindle board out for a known working one and still nothing.

The main board is pristine with no damage or dodgy soldering to be seen anywhere. It just stopped working.

If I could get the spec for the brushless motors from Roland I'd just do a retrofit with some drivers and motion controller.

UPDATE - Roland flatly refuse to give the specs of the motors. This machine was obsolete long ago so what's the problem with giving out useful information? I guess they'd rather users just skip their old machines rather than fix them. I expected more from Roland...

Could you send pictures of the board?
To see what can be done.

The board is immaculate - I don't have it just now as someones having a look at it. Possibly an issue with the main processor...
