Thanks for the detailed explanation @Giarc ! My foam cutter has a fixed toolhead and the piece of foam I’m cutting will always be located at the...
I looked it up a bit and my understanding is that you cannot add auto homing into the gcode header with grbl. I thought you could do as you do...
I generated a gcode file and did a dry run and it all went good! I have one more question. What do I need to add to the gcode header to perform...
Great plans! Can't wait. Looks like there's a lot work ahead. I noticed that the wifi portion was left off in the new experimental firmware. I'm...
@terjeio, will this change (hack) to the source code be merged permanently to grblhal? @Peter Van Der Walt, will this new binary be available...
Next step is to try to run some gcode and see how it behaves (just dry runs for now). I'm planning to use Profili Pro 2 to generate the gcode to...
I connected the A and Z limit switches in parallel and hooked them in the Z-limit port in the X32 controller. Flash the firmware with the new...
If that might help, triggering the limit switch plugged into the probe port does not trigger an alarm like the other ones.
The latest software removed the alarm and $46=8 enables the a-axis homing. I had to invert the homing direction by using $23=15 (all my limit...
Something is wrong with the limit switch connected to the probe port and I can't figure it out. Maybe the Xtension limit switch is defective? It...
I got all my parts and put the machine together. I got the BlackBox X32 in the end. Now I'm trying to setup GRBL using the CONTROL software I have...
Just quick question then... say I get the BlackBox X32 for my 4-axis foam cutter: 1- Can I use the interface with a 4-axis machine? The graphical...
Oh... I see. The limitation is the firmware, not the hardware. I was planing to "borrow" the blackbox 4X from my CNC mill. I guess that won't...
@Peter Van Der Walt, connected everything and noticed that the 4-axis firmware is only available for the new BackBox X32 in OpenBuilds CONTROL...
Alright, so I've placed my order to my Canadian OpenBuilds distributor, @Makerparts. While I'm waiting for the parts to arrive, I was wondering if...
I think this is how it's going to be: 2 x V-Slot NEMA 17 Linear Actuator Bundle (Belt Driven) - 500mm 2 x V-Slot NEMA 17 Linear Actuator Bundle...
Only the lead screw actuators have screw heads in the middle to hold the anti-backlash nut that would prevent the extrusion to sit flush on the...
Thanks for all the time you put into helping me with my project @Rick 2.0!!! It's much appreciated. I really like your first drawing with the...
That's the dimensions I had in mind(x:500, y:250). I used the 500mm actuators in my 3D model for the y-axis because that's what was available on...
Exactly! I think OpenBuilds should offer a NEMA 17 bett driven linear actuator where the gantry rides on the large side of the extrusion. That...
