Did you try to import the parts as .stl files into Fusion? I do it all the time and then rework them.
Since you don't mention what kit it is I don't know what your limit switch looks like but if it is just the bare switch, like the image below,...
Most likely yes. You can try masking the area with masking tape before the engraving. And of course, make sure the bit is really sharp. Even a...
Just to add to Rob's correct explanation. Let's say your motion actuator, be it a screw or a pulley, advances , let's say, 3 per revolution...
I wonder what the 'static belt' is. Is that when two belts are used, one glued/fixed to the rail, acting as a rack, and the other meshing into it?...
I haven't tried it recently but the last time I tried it imported it like it does with imported .stl files. It imported it in triangles, which is...
Yes, they do whip but there are two things you can do to mitigate it. One is getting a thicker screw and two is to slow down the cutting speed. I...
My Z axis has a lead screw and not belts and it doesn't slide down at all when the machine is off.
The .skp files are SketchUp files. You can find SketchUp online for free. Get an older version, like 2017 or earlier. Google it.
That sounds to me like your x axis is not calibrated properly. It's off by a frog's hair. Recalibrate the x axis and it should be OK then.
Is it possible that you didn't set up the bit diameter correctly?
Could it be that you have small steppers? They should really be NEMA 23 with maybe 260oz/inch torque
If you do that make sure you don't cut all the way through the material or you'll damage the bed. The MDF is there to prevent exactly this scenario.
Very nice machine. I like the anodizing. Way above my paygrade. :( You better be careful and not cut all the way through your material or you'll...
This is my personal opinion and YMMV. I don't think you'll need that much support for the MDF. The MDF is quite rigid. Three or four 20x20, or...
Second machine
Jimm, is there a question somewhere?
That is a 3d printer??? For a moment I thought it was a CT Scanner for people! :D :D My printer will fit nicely in the corner of this machine and...
Yes, I understood already yesterday when you posted the other picture of the smaller machine. I just didn't realize that you are going to put the...
It sounds like that you solved the problem. The switch is wired wrong. Like Alex said, make sure it's connected the same as the other two switches.
