Further to my comment above, should I look at this motor, even though the stepper motor is heavier? See the attached.
I use the Openbuilds Nema17 stepper motors with the Meanwell LRS-350-24 power supply. My set-up needs a higher torque setting. I have increased...
That is strange. Based on the attached g-code file, I do not see how the X and Y-axis could have such large dimensions. I am missing something.
When simulating the g-code, the simulation window shows a 100 mm x 100 mm area. Is it possible to reduce this or is it picking up these...
Thank you great tip. And you again to everyone on this forum being so helpful to a newbie. I tried to use another system only two years ago and...
Thank you David, That is what I concluded just one chat ago, I think I must re-do the calibration. Thanks again.
Thank you, Alex, I am not thing my steps/mm may not be correct. But I highly appreciate all the background.
I will re-check the actual distance moved. Thanks again for all the information.
Thank you, Alex, for this comment and your previous comment. So am I correct that for my machine, wherever the X, Y and Z-axes are sitting in...
Thank you, Misterg. I have attached an image. I would instead send a command (serial console) then use the jogging buttons, as I end up crashing...
Let me rather ask my question differently. What is happening when jogging, is that absolute or relative?
Is it possible to choose whether Openbuilds control is in G90 (absolute) or G91 (relative) motion? Am I correct by default, it is in G90 mode...
Thank you for the explanation.
My apologies! Misterg, I had missed this g-code. I appreciate these examples. This is extremely helpful. Thank you again.
I have included a workspace and the g-code generated from Openbuilds CAM. I understand it has created a G1 g-code due to the polylines. But, I do...
Thank you for this. Very helpful.
I need to set up a "home" for my machine. Do I use the G28 or G30 option to set the position? Do I then use G28.1 or G30.1 to find a home? I...
I will test both methods in a cut and see what I find. Thanks again.
Apologies, I am unclear in regards to your answer. Are you saying the G1 polyline method for creating a tool path is easier than the G2?...
Hi Peter, yes, you are right I have not tuned the "max rate". I will do that. In regards the not bothering with arcs, I do not mind. I was just...
