Yeah, we're troubleshooting. I'm going through the steps in via email with someone from the company. It looks like we're getting power, according to the LED located on the servo amplifier. Got a few more steps to try today. He's made himself available over the weekend for me via him home email...very cool of him.

A coil winder is exactly that. It winds coils for things like transformers, tattoo guns,, spools of wire...basically, anything that needs a coil of wire, it will wind.
I can even rewind a broken coil in the clock of a 911 that was recently posted about in the technical section....
I use it to wind electric guitar pickups using wire finer than the hair on your head - all day, every day.
It has a motor which spins a bobbin or coilform. It has an automated mechanism to guide the wire, or I can guide it by hand leting the wire slip through my fingers. It has complete programmability, so I can tell each turn of wire where to lay.
Sorth of like an extremely advanced Lathe.
It is a complicated, expensive, $15,000 piece of German crap right now.
