It's been on my wish list since the very beginning of my build along with their controller (up to 9 axis), drivers, etc. At the time, PlanetCNC...
You could use standard 1500mm length of V-slot for your X axis to get 4+ feet of width. Some bolt these into single piece for extra 'strength'...
Worked around the problem ... I did an outward offset of half the bit diameter of that complex curve, after a weld so it be a single curve. Then...
Skis and maybe snowboards have a curve (front and back), no ? Would you be doing more of a form / mold to shape the skis/boards with ? [MEDIA]...
On what might be the low end of options (less than 5k$) and even portable (!) is the SawGear : [MEDIA]...
One could be fixed - the reference saw, while the other - blade at 90 degree to first, slide to cut length. You could rig steppers to do both...
You definitely want to automate and stay precise at those volumes ... the last has to be as good as the first.
Upon further inspection, turns out the 'curve' I was trying to follow was actually thousands (really!) of tiny line segments itself. :duh: The...
I understand quickly, you just have to explain slowly ;) Got it ... my message had too many points, eh ? I'll have to come back to your...
Indeed. I was thinking more to do weird cuts such as needed to join tubing for structural framing. As for the 2x4s, a mitre saw can't do all...
Not certain what you mean or how it applies to the sliding downward of the Z axis. However, the NEMA23 has fixed the 'sliding' issue, with and...
Thanks for hint. I did scale the design before and, I am almost certain, a tad AFTER selecting the cut lines. So it is most likely as you say....
The machine I'm alluding to would be capable of doing much more than picture frames ... think structural framing, cutting tubing (with proper...
Could you do some sort of clamping system ... maybe hydraulic or just spring loaded with a foot control to 'pinch' the material being 'cut' by...
Interesting ... why not keep a 'normal' OX configuration with a narrow X (width of largest framing member to be cut), a short Y (basically enough...
YES ! myOx is now in business ... 1) Changed the little NEMA 17 (Z axis) for a NEMA 23 a bit earlier today and what a difference it makes !...
I guess that was way too obvious for me to find, eh ? :oops: Thanks for the link. I will look into it shortly ... myOx is back in business ! :)
That's an idea ... could just align through holes on each layered pieces for placing dowel at stacking time. Just have to get an easy way to...
It's not dropping when unpowered, it is sliding under the weight and slight vibration of the router when it is powered. Just sitting there, all...
Hmm ... a magnetic brake / clutch certainly would take the 'load' off the stepper. That's getting into some more 'industrial' setup, no ? Sorry...
