  • Page 17: About Masso

    I have both a Mill and a Lathe, can I use MASSO to run both? Yes, MASSO can be used to run Mill, Lathe or Plasma. When you purchase your MASSO you are given access to all software and can change between software when you power on your MASSO.
  • Page 18 There is no extra cost for using multiple software's on one MASSO controller. Can I load a DXF file into MASSO No, MASSO is a CNC controller and uses only Gcode. You need to write or use CAM software to create your Gcode Where can I get a post processor for my CAM software? MASSO has links to some CAM software post processors in the documentation.

  • Page 19: Masso Touch - Frequently Asked Questions

    MASSO-G2 model is designed to connect to VGA screens with a 15pin VGA connector and can't run LED/LCD screens. NOTE: Even if a small add-on module to connect the VGA connector of the MASSO-G2 controller to the MASSO Touch screen is made available, MASSO-G2 does not have the memory to add MASSO Touch capacitive touch drivers or screen layouts to support full touch features.
  • Page 20 Both the models will have exact same software features and user interface. MASSO Touch was developed as per client and OEM requests to have an integrated design and also to solve issues with 3rd party touch screen not working.

  • Page 21: Purchasing Masso

    I ordered 3 Axis but need 5, can I upgrade? All MASSO units use the same hardware that is capable of running up to 5 axis. You can purchase the axis upgrade at any time and new software will be added to your myWorkshop portal for easy download.

  • Page 22: Machine Conversion And Builds

    What inputs and outputs you need. You need to evaluate each existing item to see if it conforms to the MASSO standard and replace those items that do not comply. If you are unsure about a specific piece of equipment please consult the manufacturer's documentation.
  • Page 23 MASSO MASSO Documentation Relay module Homing sensor MPG Pendant Optical encoder for Spindle Estop switch https://www.masso.com.au/product-category/sensors-accessories/ We do not provide other products and you will need to source them from other suppliers which specialize in these components. v5.18 - 08 Apr,2021 www.masso.com.au...

  • Page 24: Motors And Drives

    When connecting servos the encoder connects directly to your servo drive which monitors the position and will send an alarm to MASSO in the event of position loss, the drive is then wired to MASSO using STEP/PULSE and DIRECTION signals. There is no need or option to connect the encoder from motors to MASSO.
  • Page 25 This is outside the field of the CNC controller. Please consult an engineer who specializes in this field of machine design. What motors and drives do you recommend? MASSO does not recommend any specific 3rd party equipment. v5.18 - 08 Apr,2021 www.masso.com.au...

  • Page 26: Plasma

    Does MASSO supply an THC to use with MASSO? In the future, we will be adding a MASSO THC to the MASSO range, designed specifically to work with the MASSO CNC controller. At present, there is no scheduled release date.

  • Page 28: Encoders

    Can I use absolute or linear encoders on axis? MASSO does not support the use of absolute or linear encoders to determine the position or home the machine. Homing sensors or switches are required on each axis to home the machine.

  • Page 29: Spindles

    MASSO provides a 0~10v, CW and CCW signals to control spindle speed (RPM). Two open-collector optical switches for forward (clockwise) and reverse (counter-clockwise) signals. If your VFD conforms to this format then MASSO will work with your spindle. https://docs.masso.com.au/wiring-and-setup/setup-and-calibration/spindle-vfd-examples How do I connect my Spindle? It is not possible to provide wiring diagrams for every VFD or provide advice on how to configure specific VFD’s.

  • Page 30: Tool Changers

    Will MASSO work with my machine's tool changer? MASSO has built in a range of tool changer logic for both Mills and Lathes. Please have a look at the current list of tool changers available and compare their logic to the logic requirements of yours to see if there is one suitable for your machine https://docs.masso.com.au/wiring-and-setup/tool-changers...

If your spindle does not have speed control you can still do threading as the spindle encoder will track spindle speed for the threading operation however constant surface speed will not function as this requires active speed control.

  • Page 181: Setup Rotary Axis

    MASSO MASSO Documentation 7.5. Setup Rotary Axis There are 2 types of rotary axis used on a CNC machine. The Maximum and minimum travel settings will change depending on which type or rotary axis you are setting up. The first and most common is a 4th axis traditionally use on a Mill. This is usually the A axis and it rotates the stock in one axis only while the Z axis moves along it's length in the manner of a lathe.
  • Page 182 MASSO MASSO Documentation 5 Axis Rotary axis settings are angular and not linear. There is no advantage to using huge step rates with large gear ratios. Breaking one rotation into a million steps will not help accuracy and give you a rotary axis that is slow.
  • Page 183 MASSO MASSO Documentation INFORMATION: MASSO has a rotary axis unwind built into the G28 command. G28-return-to- machine-home My Rotary Axis moves Slow This is caused by confusing linear and rotary speeds. Your axis will move at the rate of the slowest axis and reasonable linear speeds can be very slow when changed to degrees per minute and in the worse case scenario can make the machine look like they are not moving at all.
  • Page 184 INFORMATION: If you do not wish to install one then set the rotary axis to Home in the Homing settings and MASSO will zero out the machine coordinates for the Rotary axis when you home the machine. This is a common setup for a rotary 4th axis.

    Use a continuity tester to identify if your switches are normally open or closed and wire accordingly. Always used normally closed if you have the option of additional safety. HINT: All MASSO inputs are optically isolated and require a voltage of 5V to 24V from your sensor to register an input.
  • Page 186 MASSO MASSO Documentation record the results in the table below. If the voltage is greater than 5 volts record a 1 otherwise record a 0. Ignore the polarity shown on the meter.
