Hi there, I've come across the need for a horizontal mill. One that will be used to engrave the ends of rubber blocks of varying lengths. I've...
Yeah, fairly certain, did the whole "hold wire a to wire b, if hard to turn, that's a pair." thing. With the tutorial, the driver didnt like the...
I think I've decided to do four buttons.. Maybe. Maybe just two. But two momentary buttons that will drive the stepper CW or CCW. And maybe two...
Nothing's changed since I've replaced the driver, rewired the entire circuit. If anything my blood pressure has risen. It's unfortunate doing...
Something interesting maybe, it's been hooked up, powered on but I haven't been moving the encoder at all - but the driver chip is too hot to...
Parts came in, but didn't really get too far. Everything's wired to this post. I made sure to plug in the "zones" of the stepper motor into their...
Dimensions for bends are at most 001". So that's what I'd like to be aiming for. I like the idea of a fine adjust with the encoder but a much more...
I saw that when I was looking it up, definitely pricey - I feel like it's a bit overkill for us. Just gotta figure out how to drive a stepper via...
Well, I've realized a reason to want a stepper turn the ballscrew rather than try to do it mechanically. This is the style of press brake's we...
Agreed. Maybe I'll design something that's able to be motorized later down the line - I'll try this DRO, I think that in itself will great improve...
Some really cool stuff. I do really like the idea of the programmed bends - currently we would set up the backstop, bend maybe 50 parts, reset the...
I also realized that a servo is overkill after sifting through some videos. My lack of electronics knowledge lead me to believe I needed some sort...
Hi there, Wondering if someone might be able to point me in the right direction as I've had little success via Youtube; where videos expect you...
