Thanks you guys. That's what I was looking for.
Gerry, I know you told me the AM882 is your preferred driver, and the two AM882's I bought for my other project are working amazing. I am...
Wondering if I could get some opinions/advise on building a CNC router
I want to contour, engrave, and carve 3d images in all kinds of wood.
Size of router will be around 36" x 36"
My question...
here is a video of my completed project. I had help from hfjbuis on cnczone with the program. The guy is amazing programing an Arduino.
I only go 800 RPM. It will work faster, but not 1,300RPM...
Well thanks to hfjbuis, my Arduino programming is complete. Many emails back and forth with little test programs.
here is a little video explaining how it works
...
I want the display to count revolutions. For example if I have 500 on the display. I want to turn the switch on, (the switch on the top left side of the box). then the motors will turn 500 turns and...
[QUOTE=KH0UJ;2190850]Shoot you back an email :)
Choose which one you like to drive a stepper driver + stepper motor
I have an Arduino UNO, Leadshine AM882 Digital Stepper driver, and here...
KH0UJ and hfjbuis
I sent you both a PM. Thanks
Really have to google what this is trying to do, just to make sure I don´t need one of these :D[/QUOTE]
LOL james_III
go to youtube and search "specialty archery super server" and there is a...
Thanks hfjbuis
I might have to try what you are saying eventually. I'm just tired of learning new things right now, I'm going to try to find some help first.
Here is a picture of what my friend...

dharmic. That is exactly right. Thanks

I have a video on youtube. I tried to copy and paste the address but it don't work.
if you go to youtube and look for this, it will show what I am doing.
thanks
No Problem....Huub, not sure of a time frame. I've been trying and I'm just not smart enough for this programming stuff. The sooner the better I guess
Here is what I made. It is for making...
Hi,
I have a couple projects that I built and would like to hire someone to help me program an Arduino.
Does anyone know who I can talk to? Or maybe looking for other options other than an...
About 20 years ago, I made a wooded skeleton clock. It works, but it doesn't keep the best time and I have to lift the weights up every day.
There is a place on the back of the clock where I can...
update on my project.
I got everything built except a box to hold power supply, and drivers.
Mach 3 is running the motors at 1,300RPM
Here is a link to an archery forum showing it, and a link to...

hey guys
I just giving an update on my project. thanks to Gerry for recommending a Leadshine AM882, with the smooth stepper, I am getting about 1,500 RPM's from the big NEMA34 motors I bought on...
"Currently, feature rich PP breakout boards from China are cheaper than ever, like this;

I don't need 1,500 RPM speed, but I'll take it. I will go as fast as I can get it. I don't need much torque to do the task. I just bought the kit I have now because I wanted to play with...
"That thing says it twists the string at only 600rpm, so I'm not sure what it does at 2500 rpm."
it can add twist in the string at 600 RPM and it serves the string at 2500 RPM
serving is.......
Well Gerry, that's kind of disappointing. Maybe you can help me determine a better combination of stepper and driver to get a higher speed? I'm not against getting something different if I know it...
I haven't had a parallel port on any computers for probably 15 years
is the 1/2 and 1/4 stepping from the drives? how do I do that?
I tried all the different combinations on the drive for...
Thanks Gerry, yes I do know you can't use a stepper going that fast. I'm just trying to learn what everything means.
I am a toolmaker of over 20 years, so electronics are somewhat new to me. I...
Can someone help me out with a couple different motion controllers.
Go to this website ......... USB-MC MOTION CONTROLLER - Audiohms
this place has a couple videos on youtube with this motion...
Jim, do you know for sure this will work? If you try it and it works, I think I would buy that. Does it only work if you input in how many turns?
Specialty Archery is selling a machine with steppers right now. If you use any other motor, I think you would need a driveshaft to go all the way to the other side with some gears or cog belts to...
thanks Jim
I have been told they will only work with one motor/driver. I guess it is cheap enough to buy one and try it.
I am hoping someone can help me. I want to drive two stepper motors from zero to 750 rpm together sycronized. I don't want to use a laptop. Is there a stand alone programmable driver that I can do...
Hi,
I bought a bridgeport with an mx2 controller.(southwestern industries) It boots up on a 3.5 floppy and stores simple programs on the same floppy. Is there a way I can update this 3.5 floppy...
