Like the others have said, I usually design what I want in CAD first, and it's then a logical step to use CAM to generate the gcode (it means I...
(; they would read the Grbl wiki, honestly, that's all I know more than a novice (: No idea! But a) a 1510 is not an aluminum cutting machine...
comments cannot contain anything but plain text (as stated in the Wiki) , and no embedded comments so (this is a comment (with a sub comment))...
thanks <-: I would use 'the paper method' to find the surface of the waste board with the tool before mounting the stock. Note that you need...
thank you super usefull. I manly work on opb cam but will have to try fusion. fusion is a steep learning curve
You don't say what controller you are using but lets assume a Blackbox type runnig GRBL. GRBL understands G28 as a 'go to stored position'....
Thanks Joe, this sort of helps a little. I think if I do go for a CNC I will start with the DQ542MA drivers for sure. Not sure why to go for a 48V...
So I’m working on building a cnc plasma table, will have thc, and floating head. I’ve been tinkering with marlin and 3d printers for about 8...
yes in Fusion360, , in the options for each cut there is a section for 'compensation' with options for in computer in controller in computer...
I think a better way is probing so you can set the WCS correctly from what you have and then run the Gcode relative to that WCS (or even more than...
Hi I am going to add comments to the gcode below to explain what it is doing (Made in : Autodesk CAM Post Processor) (G-Code optimized for Grbl...
you need to be using the Openbuilds post processor for Fusion360. It will automatically generate a gcode file per tool, since grbl does not...
Our Fusion360 post creates a Gcode file per tool. If are using other CAM software then you should do the same. GRBL has no facility for storing...
oh, this is probably the actual issue. Industry standards dictate that machine home is at the positive ends of axis travel (from tool travel...
get yourself a C-beam kit and get some experience before embarking an a huge build. LinuxCNC seriously? read this GitHub - gnea/grbl: An open...
macro: (googles definition) noun: macro; plural noun: macros; noun: macro instruction; plural noun: macros instruction; plural noun: macro...
I was just looking at fusion 360, I think it’s the paid one that does 4 Axis, I shall have a look at the other DeskProto as well. I’ve tried with...
Firstly, have you measured your cutting bit? If you don't use the actual bit size in the CAM, you will not get the correct size cut. 2nd, what...
If you've got the money then skip the GRBL hoops and buy the ESS, run through a G540 (or Bob with drivers), through mach3/4 or LinuxCNC(free)....
ok, so whats happening here is im a complete fool. I couldn't figure out why my bit was dropping so I figured it was the machine...it wasn't. it...
