I am using a 1/4 bit and 30 degree ramping. 0.5mm step down and around 1000 mm/per min. I think the issue was more the fact that somehow the z...
EDIT: Looks like the z car has somehow lost the pre-load I put on it and there is some play I need to get rid of. First piece on the C-Beam...
Use on x and z?
I hope I didn't get us side tracked with the shortcomings of the C-Beam Machine. When I bought the machine I had mixed expectations. I think...
Thanks for the replies guys. I am sure quality cuts can be made as long as the machine is not pushed very hard. I just wanted to make sure I was...
I know it has been mentioned before, but I am to the point I am finally cutting, but am noticing a fair amount of deflection in the Z when pushed...
You will need an Arduino running GRBL $25. A Gshield $50. 6 amp or more power supply $30. A router...I am using the Dewalt DWP611 $120....
It's just a more complete and robust set up. Don't get me wrong...what you have will work fine and should drive your steppers with plenty of...
Save yourself some brain damage and use a gshield. I got a 24v 6.5A power aupply Meanwell.
Can't you get an adapter for your current collet?
I bought Estlcam for $50. Great program. Check it out.
Another option to test software easily is have someone with a working and calibrated machine make you some gcode to run and see what the results...
Have if you are using the stock steppers than your 200 steps per mm are correct. Have you measured your bit?
Are you measuring cuts or just movements? If your steps per mm are off your error would get worse over longer distances. If you are seeing this...
When you change the settings in GRBL panel you have to double click them one at a time. Can't change a bunch and then change have to do them one...
I bought the C-Beam Machine so I could use it as a way to upgrade other projects and build new ones. Also the cost of getting up and running was...
Once I get fully up and running will prob do it. Also put a second router mount so there are two holding the router.
C-Beam™ Gantry Plate - Double Wide Any major benefit you think we would see using this on the Z vs the standard plate?
Google Super-PID
Have you tried seeing how it looks climb vs conventional? And then tried doing one in one direction and the other in the other direction back to...
