The hissing sound in fast decay mode is normal. I leave mine in fast mode. I'm an electrical design engineer. I've looked at the spec sheet for...
Absolutely it can go away mysteriously by simply sitting there. I don't want to doubt your troubleshooting but Gray made an excellent suggestion....
Jack I've had similar sounds before and they were caused by a loose screw somewhere. Actuating the steppers causes you to hear it. Adjusting the...
My xPro Controller v2 is still running the original firmware it shipped with: 0.9. Anyone know if xPro V2 is compatible with Grbl v1.1? Don't...
I've seen this article before, but most people don't fully understand what it means. You DO NOT lose torque or accuracy by increasing the number...
Thanks. I did do some tests. MDF can't tolerate the mist over long term. Yes it swells up. So my plan is to use HDPE for the spoiler board.
I have a Cool Mist system I've mounted on my CNC. I haven't run the coolant through it yet. It's for cooling/lubrication while doing aluminum...
I agree with Rick, plus... Even if you simply make the sides taller and the Z-axis longer there's a limit because of the configuration. The...
As Rick says, you need to go by the bearings, not the wheels. The "sidewalls" of the wheels don't touch anything.
Mark, how are you measuring the deflection on your C-Beam?
Dave, See my post #790 Jan 19, 2016 in this thread. I've isolated it and most of the deflection shown in that post is from the wheels. As Jim...
You can't see a few or tens of thousands of deflection. It must be measured. But that doesn't mean it's not significant.
Yes, there's a fair bit of deflection. My testing shows the weakest link is the extreme wheels. Tightening the eccentrics a bit more doesn't...
