Also in the display window it show the rod with toolpath. The line goes across the center of the rod. Maybe i am wrong but i swear that line should be on top of the rod....maybe this is my issue?
I am so frustrated. My computer died, i bought a replacement old windows xp just like my old one was. Installed mach3 and the profile for my cnc mill from the factory cd. Mach3 should be completely...
Ok, I will try again to continue.
It was just a axis that was out on the board. The China board has all drivers on a single board, I suppose it could be possible to use y to drive a, I don't know. ...
I posted more, every time I post it says I must wait for approval
Sorry, got delayed awaiting approval. Sorry iPad sometimes does upside down photos :/
Anyhow. So it's started out, my 4th axis started to shutter. As a noob I suspected the motor, a not to...
I do not actually require help, I title this thread to assist others when they search for help on this machine, which we all know is going to happen! I am not a cnc expert by any means, I am only...
So set the driver at 1 and use 10,000 steps for motor tuning is what you guys are suggesting, correct?
Thanks Russ, so I went with your first conclusion...it isn't set at 1/4. You were correct, It was supposed to be 1/4 but I guess I got confused on the dip switches. I changed all 4 drivers, then your...
What would you do if it doesn't like 4064 steps? At that setting if you move 1" it is only 1/8". At 32000 steps it moves 1" but that number of steps per inch seems absurd.
Could easily be I read it incorrectly. It's 80 mm hapless harmonic drive off eBay
So maybe the motor is 200 rpm like most steppers are and the 50:1 translates as .036?
Using Mach 3 calibration it...
I am so bad with math, watched videos and what not and I just can't figure it out :(
I rebuilt the electronics in an hy3040 column engraver since they took a crap and now none of the old motor...
Machine settings are supposed to be 26.666, 1000, 300
If I crank up the 26.6 to say 1000 then the motor actually spins but still lags. Tried changing the settings on a axis to dozens of different...
Here's a pic of the 4 axis I ordered that I was thinking I could basically just plug and play by changing a few settings.
I bought this machine from China a few months back. It's actually been working great until last week. Although I like the machine, the 4 axis is junk, always has been. It will cut a part perfect but...
Thanks learn. I was able to find some help on the Mach forum. Reversing was the problem but it was A that was running backwards.
A very curious thing I didn't notice before. The machine physicall jogs in the correct direction. There is an image on the screen, the toolpath image. The toolpath image is wrong too. I see a face...
I finally got my 3040 chinese column engraver 4 axis to run. It is manual operated spindle. An issue I had in setup was I believe x,y and a ran backwards when I manually jog machine. Solution I did...
Doh!! Never mind. I forgot..a axis...must go to settings, click tool path, enable setting radius then go to the big green screen and type in the radius of the rod. All works good, just a matter of...
Update...my machine now jogs correctly, I had to revers a few homing switches. I load my code, set to zero, manually turn on spindle and then execute the file. The machine moves over to what looks...
Hmmm, i used the settings off the cd for ports and pins. In manual jog from Mach, the z moves correct but the x,y,a move opposite directions that they are supposed to. If I toggle them active then...
Ebay item 151352091207. Is a motor from same seller. Possible same or similar to the spindle motor comes in the machine. Reading the description it says to use pwm control Mach 3 you must disconnect...
I just received one of these same machines. I was able to get x,y,z,a to respond to Mach. I am not able to get mach to turn on the spindle for me. It's sounding like from what I am reading, that the...
Btw I do have the factory xml file installed but it's not enough, just gets you started.
I meant to for a few years and never got to taking photos of my Mach 3 settings for my 4 axis x5 speed master. Hard drive crashed on pc, I loaded Mach to a new pc and can't seem to get all my...
Well, I don't think I can get it into win xp, I think i have to stay with win 8. You figure that's the real issue? Do other people experience this same problem? I have to think that eventually the...
Oh...just in case you ask...no the computer is not online. There's no internet in the shop. It can go online but would have to be unhooked and carried to the house.
Wasn't sure where to ask this general question. My computer is a basic box type machine, relatively new, windows 8 I do believe. I have screensaver setting completely off.
Every few days,...
So...you've used the machine for months, no real issues, life is good, made lots of extra cash and now you just need to take a break. You turn off the computer, the Syil X5 and unplug it and go...
Your syil pm box is full. I need to know what to set the motor tuning at for the x5 speedmaster, X,Y,Z and especially A, using mach 3 controller. I need the Acceleration and the velocity numbers.
