If this is a grbl machine are you; A) using the openbuilds post processor for Fusion (docs:software:fusion360 [OpenBuilds Documentation] B)...
There is no "between the blackbox and stepper drivers" - the stepper drivers are integral to the blackbox. Your suggestion is theoretically...
Nice clear guide to the principles involved. Alex.
Yes - that should be fine. Alex.
Yes, lots people have come across this - from what you have described it sounds like backlash - the motor turns, but the axis doesn't move. Show...
How are you ensuring that your pcb is perfectly flat to the spoilboard? Personally I wouldn't use screws to hold the pcb down, I'd use masking...
When choosing stepper motors bear in mind that you shouldn't run them above about 80% of their maximum rated current. What are the specifications...
As long as the cnc is firmly attached to the torsion box you will not lose any adjustments. Your steps/mm are stored in your controller, so the...
Do you have a vfd/spindle? If so where have you put the cables? Vfd's & spindles create tons of emi (interference). Keep the vfd away from the...
Homing the machine sets the MACHINE co-ordinate system zero ($130, 131 & 132 in your grbl settings set the other end - max travel - of each axis)....
What size is your machine? In fact can you please give us as much information about your machine as possible - especially what controller you are...
@trevor sachs what controller set up do you have? If its a grbl controller can you post your grbl settings? Alex.
Wow! And I always thought they were rolled into a hot bar. Alex.
I suggest that you search the forum for references to solidworks. If I recall correctly it came up in several posts about a year ago but there...
If that code was produced using the Openbuilds post processor for Fusion why don't you change it there? @sharmstr - I'm on my phone - have you got...
If that is a picture of your blackbox it does have a toolhead connector, or do you mean it doesn't have the four pin connector to plug into it? Alex.
As far as I can tell from the link you provided the opto-couplers protect the signal inputs to the stepper driver (step, dir) from emi. I don't...
@Peter Van Der Walt has already answered this in your other post - your cam software and grbl take care of that. You can design in inches or...
Oh, that's not actually a good solution - the reason there aren't eccentrics on the top wheels is you need a fixed reference. If you think about...
The Xpro v5 runs on a 32 bit fork from grbl - it won't be entirely compatible with OB Control. Basic g-code commands will work of course. Spark...
