Hi Balu, It is always best to run a CNC machine from it's own, dedicated PC. To this end it may be prudent to source and older (perhaps second...
Hi Greg, An extremely intriguing design you have there, I look forward to following your progress :thumbsup: Tweakie.
Perhaps best to obtain your stepper motors and measure the shaft diameter before ordering the flexible couplings. They should have a shaft...
Hi Gray, I really don’t know all the answers. :) It is a law of physics that the ‘depth of field’ (a useful laser dot size) will increase as...
:) Tweakie.
Is this the one you are thinking of ? http://donektools.com/ Tweakie.
Now there's a coincidence, I have just ordered one of those HY drivers from China (for my B axis) £9.93 inc. postage. :) I have no idea if they...
Still a long way to go on this. Once I have resolved the timing issues and I am able to break the "5 stitches per second" barrier then I'll post...
:D:D:D You could say it's so funny that it has you in stitches or that you are getting thread-up with reading about it ?? Tweakie. [ATTACH]
Brilliant work Rob, thanks for taking the time to write-up all this information, it is most helpful and informative. :thumbsup: Tweakie.
Hi Rob, Certainly great food for thought - please keep the ideas coming :thumbsup: Tweakie.
Good luck Brian :thumbsup: - perhaps get Boo doing a bit of overtime and take care of you back (and toes) when lifting the completed frame into...
I will have to start another thread on this topic because machine embroidery it is a lot more involved than I had first envisaged. Here I have...
Hi Rob, My apologies if I gave the wrong impression, by "servo's" I did not mean RC servo's but rather the CNC machine type servo's...
Thanks for the kind words Brian. I think I have now got to grips with the Tajima file format (which appears to be one of the insdury standards)...
Yup, you got in one Brian :) this will either work or it won't but I think that there is a lot of learning for me to do before I get it right. :D...
Hi Rob, Servo driven systems can be operated much faster than stepper driven systems and of course, do not suffer with the lost / gained steps...
Hi @sausagePaws , Well I have just got to give this a try after you put the idea in my head (which has now been fermenting for a couple of months...
