I figured I would ask anyway. There some very talented folks around that could that by hand.
What CAM software to you use if you dont mind me asking?
where those done by hand or a cnc mill? They look amazing.
good to know, thank you. I use some of their product but did not know.
Thank you guys. Yes it was odd.
Thank you, I will try that next time.
I had a small project that started with 0.125" stock. I want to face mill it to 0.100" What would be the best way to do this then without warping it?
The plate is 15 x 8
tell us about that art so I can start practicing it
So if I wanted to make the head sink shown in the video above, of even better a fixture plate for my machine, is there any value to cast over formed/extruded (Is that what the other kind is called?...
Good morning, I was wondering what is the number on industry standard when I comes to CAM programming. Recently fusion has taken off amongst the hobbist but I imagine there are other proven tools in...
Are you saying that as long as machine 6061 and allow it to cool down I can re machine it and not have it bow?
First off guys, my terminology could be wrong but when I say extruded I am talking about T6 6061 sheets and bar etc that you can get online, and how it differs from mic6? Cast aluminum?
I read...
Thank you , What is the 320 number so that I can try to convert your formula to imperial?
Alum. 1/4 with a 1/8 2 flute drill.
What is TSC?
Hi guys, im was never able to understand how to calculate feeds and speed for drilli g opeartions on a mill or cnc machine.
I am family with how horizontal feeds and chipload work, but does any of...
Hello guys,
I am looking to be able to cut alum plates or stock to use on my CNC machine. I found the thread from 2005 where some of the recommendations where to use a jigsaw or table saw (yikes...
While it true that is could be a 3040 from ebay, I have come to realize that most machines will cute and do what you ask of them as long as your run they properly and not push them beyond their...
Old thread, but why? If you have the right know how, why not? I think you would need a spindle w lottle runoud and the right feeds as to no make the machine flex. I think it is certainly doable.
have to ask then, what is the advantage of the clear path servos or hybrid steppers then?
So then, going back to your other posts, there is no hard "brake" like there is in a standard stepper setup ? I recall my nema34 would stop colt turkey whenever I hit the E-stop. However, in the...
I want to understand a few things please:
1 are these servos a close loop for step / position?
2 what happens when you hit the E-stop button when you realize there is a problem. Does everything...
SOLD!!! please close
Hi guys, I was looking at the clear path servos myself. So I am understanding is that when the machine is off, the Z drops because the servo motor just rotates because of the weight of the Z ?
I...
Thank you ! I appreciate your help.
Thank you !
good thread, need to be a sticky. I am too running into issues with UCCNC.
Question, are the motor settings also unit-less?
Thank you for your response. Do you think that is the issue - although my program was done in imperial units and the size of the past was correct?
Is this something I missed on the help file?
I...
Good Morning guys.
I ran into and issue earlier where my curved cuts looked like straight segments. I looked at the preview in the UCNC window and setting to check that I was running in CV mode...
