Description
This is an adapter plate to mount a 5065 outrunner to the spindle of a Carbide 3D Nomad 883 Pro. The motor is a Flipsky 5065 sensored outrunner. It has an 8mm shaft and I used the stock Nomad to mill out an adapter from 6mm aluminum plate. It currently has a 40t pulley on the motor and the stock 20t pulley on the spindle with a 150-2GT belt. The current setup is great if anyone chooses to use it. Its currently got a BLCD-8015C driver that is interfaced directly to the original Carbide3d motion board through the original spindle driver socket. I have also added an external power supply dedicated to the spindle that has an adjustable voltage. Right now I'm limited to 36v due to the motor driver. I will be putting a either an Odrive or a VESC in its place, probably the VESC 6.7. This will require an Arduino/esp32 to convert the PWM duty cycle spindle speed signal to a PMM signal for the VESC to have accurate speed control.
