3.2 Spindle Configuration

3.2.1 Spindle Pulley Setup

For Mach3 to know how to scale the analog voltage output, the maximum RPM for the spindle motor must be
defined. If the machine has different gears Mach3 can have multiple maximum speeds. Mach3 uses a different
pulley for each different speed configuration.
For example, one pulley could be set to 75 to 300 RPM for a low speed (at 300 RPM the control will output
10V). A medium speed pulley could go from 300 to 1200 RPM and high speed pulley could run from 1200 to
2400 RMP.
To change the pulleys, go to Config->Spindle Pulleys. The Pulley Selection window will appear as shown in
Figure 22.
