Hello

Just ordered the mk3/4 controller with the 16 pin “breakout board” for connecting a mpg pendant.
It is exactly the same mpg as offered on the Planet CNC website.
I am wondering how it...

I will try to do that even though I made a new discovery last night.

I tried changing the pulse edge, I believe it is from falling edge to rising edge, on the drive. Oddly enough it was still...

Yes, it seems very likely that it is the cause!

I am just wondering what software supports changing the delay/timing of step/dir signals?

I know that Planet-CNC can change the pulse width,...

Hey



I am using Mach 4 and a Smoothstepper, I have not seen any settings regarding the timing of pulses, only in Mach 3 I believe.


Regarding my testing today I found a piece of code and...

Yes, I know that.

What I mean is that the error that is occuring is the same, ie. the same numerical error on the drives. That seems strange in my opinion, although I am defininetly not an expert...

Hello

Here is another link to a similar unit:...

I just made a short video showing the error with the positioning gradually getting worse, I have tested it on all 4 drives with load and without. This error is very sporadic, sometimes it is there...

Hello

I have just been finetuning my new homemade CNC-Router.

I am using these on all axes: ...

Hello

So I had the chance this weekend to tinker with the system.

I was right about it not being backlash or anything loose in the system. I went through all the settings on the servo-drives...

Regarding the speed - I tried cutting the circle at 3000mm/min and acceleration at 500mm/min which is where the measurements at the drawing are coming from. I tried several slower feedrates but no...

Hello
I am having a bit of a nightmare with my CNC. I have recently changed to a Chinese knockoff of the Leadshine Easy servo series, more specifically these motors and drives https://goo.gl/2uFKXr....

Hey
Yeah, I know they require some rather High rpm..
But the datasheet says they go up to 2000rpm. I know there is little to no chance of getting up there. But 1000rpm should be possible? And they...

Hello

I just finished building my CNC-Router.

And I made the stupid mistake of going big in the stepper department...
I bought a kit from eBay with 4 1200oz. Steppers and the DM860A drives...
