Wow, I can't even measure 5 microns. If you can achieve +-0.1mm on your machine you will be doing fine.
Hi Alex, yes from what I recall of the Fusion posts, that is fine, so long as the G55 is output before any G00, G01, G02 or G03 motion block in...
Great job Shawn, and good to hear that you have automated the spindle on/off, doesn't sound not much of a benefit, but as you say it does make a...
Ignore my last post, I am assured that this isn't necessary - the problem may have been from "Out of Limits" error that turns off the spindle...
Sorry don't know about Blackbox, but coming back to Duet, I found another problem with M5 (spindle stop), this is executed before finishing...
To clarify Duet connection to PWM to Analog board which is tricky to confirm without a scope [ATTACH]
Good stuff, just about to tackle the same problem on a Duet board. I noticed that you have specified a PWM frequency of 100Hz and that the PWM to...
I'm afraid so Alex :(, CNC wasn't invented when I started about 50 years ago :(:(:(:( - up to my neck in paper-tape [ATTACH] :rolleyes: - ooh...
I'm personally more familiar with NC machines Alex, not so much CNC - good idea :ROFL::ROFL: Geoff
Alex can't believe you have a phone to do this and David I just knew that a youngster would know how to do it, so absolutely no use asking me....
Hi Alex, it would be great to see a video of your tool-changing in action, when it's finished - Geoff
Colin, ignore that last post, it seems that I have been using a default scale of 2, which I didn't set. You could try reducing the scale ??? I...
Hi Colin, I use the Cycle time from Vcarve a lot and I find that it's pretty accurate for my humble Arduino running grbl. If anything I would...
The cutter that you propose has non standard tool geometry so you would need to create a Form Tool to get the correct simulation, that said you...
I just knew you wasn't a Newbie;)
Good for you Alex, below is a simple test that fails completely on my system, (First Tool T1 - End Mill (6.35 mm)) T1 G17 G21G90...
I have created a single file like yours I guess where a manual tool-change could take place. That is, pause the program, jog the tool to enable a...
Not good news for my Arduino running grbl, it seems that M6 doesn't do anything and M0 has problems after resume. Having looked at others...
I've had a quick look at the Fusion 360 Post and if this works for Vcarve, it should be an easy job to do Fusion 360 also (JavaScript). At the...
Alex, I've changed the Vcarve Grbl Post-Processor to do Tool Changes, but my Control, like my Machine is in bits, I'll test it later, to see if...
