There are a few other things I forgot to mention. I'll directly answer your questions after this. Ramping: End mills might not seem to have an...
It's nice and convenient when you can do the work yourself. I look forward too seeing this take form. Have you thought about electronics yet?...
I'm by no means a pro, but this is all of the information I have gathered AND experienced in the real world. This stuff can be and usually is the...
The thing about using extrusion for the entirety of the frame is that you can fudge the shape square. With this style, you have to make sure your...
A longer end mill only exaggerates imprecision in the router as well of flex in the gantry. How long of an end mill are we talking about here?...
I've been busting my butt trying to learn the different aspects of a core xy. The main focus for me has been the frame and type of linear motion....
It's essentially using the principle of an i-beam, while keeping weight and use in mind. By use, I'm guessing you still want to use wheels. If...
I'll be home in about 30min. I'll get straight to it.
The only way to really fight deflection is to have as much surface area away from the center of the beam. If the objective is to keep the...
I'm guessing you want one belt to drive all four corners. An alternative would be to have one belt drive two corners. Then connect the two sides...
Woah, slow down there. I was only using the ball screw as a reference to a designed machine. That machine pushes a heck of a lot more weight...
I can tell you from now that wheels can barely handle an 800W setup. any 20mm profile rail is going to be way stronger than any amount of wheels....
What belt do you plan to use for the motion? The resolution increase is great, but I'm sure even the stepper by itself can shred belts. 1275oz...
I'm just pulling numbers out of my rear, but I don't know if it would do more than 1000mm/min. Even cutting with small (3mm - 1/8") end mills can...
When I said what I said, I didn't mean degrees, profession, or computer know how. I meant drive. Only you know what you have in front of you....
You'll just be stuck running at relatively low feedrates. Whip is a result of rotational velocity.
Looking at the wiring diagram for the Gradus shows that each axis has it's own ground. Ultimately, ground is ground. It doesn't matter if you...
This might sound really disrespectful, but what's the point of having all of that tech without having the technical design background (or...
My ninja edit wasn't so ninja. Check my post again. The 6 pin connector was also missing from that pic. You only need one ground for them all....
I actually made my own breakout board based on the circuit below. Each axis has a positive as well as a negative input. They are connected in...
