Excellent work Carl. :thumbsup: Tweakie.
You could try checking (with everything switched off) that you have your Y axis motor connected correctly – use a multimeter / continuity tester...
Generally flat spots on circular cut-outs are caused by back-lash (slack) in the system. From your photo the flat appears parallel with the Y axis...
Hi John, What control board are you using ?? What control software are you using ?? Tweakie.
If the authorities can find a way - and I am sure they are working on it. :D Tweakie.
Hi Ed, Just in case the issue does not get picked up here on the forum you can ask your questions directly using the form located on this page;...
Good choice. :thumbsup: Tweakie.
The output voltage of the power supply will determine the voltage applied and it will be the same voltage for all motors used. Yes it is OK to use...
How true. :D:D Tweakie.
That depends to a large extent on your Velocity and Acceleration settings but a 2.5 Amp NEMA 17 would be a powerful motor for it's size. Tweakie.
It's certainly a very interesting idea and I suppose it all depends on the weight of your Z axis, the type of work you intend to do and the...
Just in case it’s of any interest… This is the test rig and stepper motor the HY-DIV268N-5A has been driving at 48 Volts, 5 Amps...
I suppose we should all be aware that like most cheap stuff imported from China there are the genuine items and there are the rip-off or clone...
Hi John, You are quite correct and teeth on wheel times pitch of matching belt is the way to calculate actual movement per one revolution. Tweakie.
Hi Guys, On two machines I use the parallel port connection and get 100% reliability. On one machine I use USB connection and although it is...
Hi Gray, The HyCNC driver has arrived, and has been tested. It works well at 48 Volts driving a 5 Amp stepper but, as suspected, it does require...
Hi SausagePaws, Thanks for the heads-up on Janome. I have not had time to investigate the various ‘industry standard’ formats yet – something...
36Volts would, I think, be a good choice for the TB6600 drivers. :thumbsup: Tweakie.
Hi Balu, At your suggestion I have made a start on an "Electronics 101" but it is a mammoth undertaking to cover all aspects so it will take some...
Electronics 101. Please bear with me, this is perhaps a bold undertaking and it will take me some time to complete the whole document. There are...
