If you are going to cut these I would recommend looking for the Ox Heavy duty, which uses the much better c-beam x gantry and z instead of the...
If your acceleration is very low you can have issue with this as well, every little segment it will slow down and never get up to speed. Just...
NO or NC doesn't matter too much, can invert the inputs, as long as NPN, I think most people run NC. Cheers
The first pic above isn't backlash that's a whole bunch of missed steps, in other words the motor stalled out. Is this with a Blackbox? big...
To add do the confusion, when changing direction I've only ever swapped one coil, like 1234 to 2134 maybe Peter has a reason for swapping both? Gary
Sheared? the bolts broke? or you mean you stripped the head out? aka the 3mm tool just spins.. if it's stripping then you can use a standard head...
Which UGS are you using? I just looked at my "UGS-Platform" and I only had 0.00, I cant see a way to change it either. 0.001" precision is...
You can 3d carve an stl file. I use Estlcam but I'm sure other ways are available. Cheers
I find grounding is often overlooked but good grounding of everything helps a bunch. And as Shell said get the spindle power away from the rest,...
Hi Donald, the best way to rule it out would be to download something like UGS Platform (any of the free grbl g-code senders) and run the G-code...
The 1/2 diameter is a rough guideline for starting out. And it's not a HP constraint. You will get chatter from flex on a hobby machine before...
Hi Arthur, maybe, depends on what you have now? Struggling with power? Your depth of cut and feed rate is more constrained by machine rigidity,...
Should be fine, the continuous average current is lower than the max, and 0.3+0.3 would be 0.6A which is still less than 1.0. 0.3a steppers? these...
Hi Adam, there was a very similar post a couple weeks ago and he found it was the dust shoe bristles lifting the z axis at each direction change....
Hi Jim, You can make the drawing any way you wish using just about any program, while not connected to the machine. You use the Openbuilds CAM...
I recommend setting up the dust shoe brushes so they don't move up and down with the z axis. Gary
Good! I was looking at that pic and was thinking, I bet that dust shoe is getting smashed down too much!
Hi Fabien, did you setup your 0-10v output? As per the Docs? Cheers Gary
The wheels should be snug but still able to spin them with your thumb. The nut block should be easy to spin but no slop. Cheers Gary
Hi Kendall, Almost looks like your Z coupler isn't tight and you are not getting a reliable z position. Another thing it could be is backlash...
