G0704 mach3 steps per
I recently finished converting my mill to cnc. I am having a issue with dro not reading correct. When I jog the table 1" by measuring with ruler, the dro reads 4.043. The only way I can the dro to read correct was to set the steps per to 8088 and it close, not perfect.
Setup:
520 oz on x and y
1605 ball screws on x and y
Kl8056d driver
906 oz on z
2505 ball screws on z
Kl8070d driver

What do you have the dip switches set to on your driver? seems to be 1/8.
The 8056 can be the same as I have for the 5056 here on #6.
FAQs
This would be for 1/8 microstepping so the steps/per would be 200 x 8 x 5.08 = 8128
200 is the steppers steps per rotation
8 is for 1/8 microstepping
5.08 is the 1605/2505 ballscrews pitch imperial, 25.4/5=5.08

I set the dip switches, the way you said to do on you page.

ok, set the steps/per to 8128 and you should be good.

Will do, when steps per is set to 8088. For x and y volecity is set to 100 and accel is 100. For z the max I can do is volecity 50 and accel is 45. If I do anything else it freezes.
