No, I think you've misunderstood. If you're using Openbuilds Control, you can set the active Work Coordinate System (WCS) in the DRO at the top...
You can change the WCS origin ("zero point") using the G10 L2 [...] command: G-Codes Remember that you will need to set it back again if you...
G Code looks OK to me. It still smacks of something loose, but your workpiece is pretty substantial, so I doubt it's that that is flexing. Is the...
How are you holding the workpiece down?
It's a reminder that no matter how rigid we think something is, there is always a certain amount of flex - even within the tool itself. The...
Thanks very much for the feedback, and glad it's working OK for you :) I'm not actively working on it at the moment as it suits my needs, but:...
Did you transfer the maximum speed and (importantly) acceleration settings for X, Y and Z from the old controller to the new? Even if you did,...
There's some info in the posts above (I suggested 2mm). The bit manufacturer's recommendations are likely made from the point of view of...
Sounds like you are doing things right - can you attach the gcode file here so we can check that it's a valid file?
Glad to hear you're making progress :) Yes - you get things like scorch marks when cutting wood, or the cutter rubs and grabs intermittently....
The curse of AI! :D It’s a starting point, but it clearly isn’t working for whatever reason, so you need to change something. It’s not a magic...
Difficult to tell from the view angle of the video, but you seem to have a quite a lot of tool stick-out.Tool deflection will contribute to...
I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding your explanation, or if you're not quite understanding the process... The machine only needs to travel to...
You may want to experiment with that before committing too much to it - my experience was that the TLO got cancelled for a multitude of reasons...
As above, it worked without problems. The device in question was from SIIG. It was a 4 port one, which would likely be overkill for what's being...
Thanks - that makes sense. Will have a look at sorting it out in due course.
Where have you set the origin for your CAM setup? The machine needs to be homed, then moved to that position and the WCS (G54) set to zero....
Not a Black Box, but a remote terminal for a CNC controller… All worked as advertised: looked like a USB port at each end, but LAN in between. I...
There’s no particular workflow needed - obviously the machine needs to be homed after power up, and you need to set a reference tool before you...
Yes. You may not need the resistor - try without, I *think* it will be ok. No - later in the Macro thread there is one I posted for finding the...
