Yeah shows for me.
That seems very slow for a "high energy" machine, even at a foot or two diameter, but at least it explains the gearing/belting then! If you used a...
Ok, just looked into it a little bit. Not sure the finishes are necessarily any better, depending on media, but the "high-energy" thing for very...
What's the advantage of the rotary unit over a traditional vibratory option? It appears to generate the same tumbling action, and other than...
So you're not purely relying on your VFD software to make your spindle safe after power events, any floating pins on your control outputs at...
Does it happen everywhere across the machining area? Odd that the lines are spaced differently, but the terminal serifs are equal lengths in the...
Yeah I like the idea- and you could probably test it by modifying the HAL on a basic LinuxCNC config, so mostly in software; 3 axes, 5 joints....
I have no current intention of releasing the files- in general, I have a blanket "no files" policy, including 3D print files, etc. It's also not...
o_O I hadn't even seen this, but I'm assuming most people were put off by the stream of consciousness wall of text? Maybe organise your thoughts a...
Yeah should be fine. Your VFD documentation should have a section on how much of a load it can decelerate using the internal resistor.
Seems unlikely- the energy stored in the coils that it would have to break is buffered by the VFD [/your braking resistor]. There is usually some...
I'm assuming that those drop-in units are using custom drivers, to be honest, but they all essentially do the same thing. The BlackBuck is...
Standard Acro frame with a servo- or pneumatic-operated petal grip (pneumatic would allow you to adjust operating pressure instead of building a...
Would racking between the beams be eliminated if it were center-driven like a dual-rail-single-screw Y axis? I know there's probably not a plate...
Either way- the point is just to ground the plastic throughout its length, which is what gains the static charge via friction with the moving...
Bare copper is the way to go. If I were planning to do a dust hose (I haven't figured out my dust/chip extraction yet), I'd use flat braided...
I actually do like that idea, it's a good way of thinking around the situation, but... ...The solution is homing. You don't need to use machine...
Igus ChainFlex is what I'm [will be, when I get that part hooked up] using as VFD cable. Industrial automation is what it's designed for, so both...
Nope. The homing option was for if the OP was having the issue during homing, because they didn't specify when it was during operation that I saw....
Yeah, I get that. Information overload can be tough. You'd want to work backwards- what do you want to do with the machine, and then figure out...
