Are you the Martin on Planet CNC with the circle problem? Can you give some information about which stepper motors you're using? The advice of...
Planet doesn't seem to have the same or a similar routine, Andrej is not a big supporter of the limit switches on the slave. I'm a bit puzzled,...
Hi Martin, It is not so difficult to do. Just take a double length of timing belt suitable for the axis you're working on and add about 200mm...
My Buffalo did this today! [MEDIA]
Thanks everybody for the answers. I'll give it a try with higher amps. Since it's only temporary until the new drivers arrive it might just last...
Thank you Robert! The last sentence I can fully agree with (now, after screwing 1 driver up!). Just hooked the 2 Y axis up to one driver and it...
Yep, see what you mean. Here is a picture of the TB6600 I'm using now. I see no diodes in there, do you? If possible this year, can somebody help...
"Goes to show one needs to measure EVEN the pre-cut lengths. It's the old : "measure twice, cut once"." I tried to explain that to you about a...
Robert, since you have the same motor drivers as I have and one of mine blew up yesterday, do you think it is possible to have two steppers on one...
I would make a video to show this, if it were not the case that one of my motor drivers blew up. Have to wait for a new one to make the vid.
Put the center of your router bit (or a pin point) just above the table, put a ruler at 0 exactly under the center parallel to the axis you're...
Rhinofart, 5mm/min is slower than a dead turtle! Try 500/min as a starter. I jog with 3000/min and use 500/min and up for cutting. 5mm/min is...
@ Rhinofart, I calculated it again and again, the settings for the GT3/3mm pitch belt with 20 tooth pulley and Nema 23 at 1/8 micro steps should...
Stepper=generator when you turn it by hand, I knew that! Even when I pushed the gantry forward just a little, I was aware of that effect. No smoke...
Me too! Same way. Connect the A+ and A- to see if the stepper engages (turns more difficult than without the wires connected), if so, no harm done...
@ David, opened a conversation with the files attached.
@ Mark, have this odd thing going on with Sketchucam, see screenshot of the gcode in CNC USB Controller. On the right upper corner you will see...
Ok, here it is.
Are the following settings correct for the stepper motors: Nema 23 1.8 degrees, 1/8 micro stepping, GT3 belt 3mm pitch, pulley 20 tooth is...
@Robert Hummel; what resistance should I measure on the TB6600 for 2.8A? Thanks in advance.
