No im only missing steps on the Y Axis - however if i load a program on the pc while it is running, it will lose steps everywhere... not sure what motion board it is. Yes ive tried a different USB...
OK, so the stepper motor is fine. The twist in the bed isnt the problem. im 99% sure its the CPU clock cycle. I opened NCplot during a run and the machine pauses and continues about 300mm out on both...
good luck gettign a response from MW. i have the original 327 software if you need a copy
ok so i noticed the bed was a bit twisted. and i have leveled it the best i can. now after 30mins of running it loses its place to about 2mm on the axis. so im guessing there is a tiny bind somewhere...
yeah i had that problem years ago. i swapped all the bearings out for some better ones with dust sleeves. ran perfect again.
currently running another test. then swapping the motors
ok - so ive now tested the problem on two different pc's - same result. and ive pulled apart the ball screw on the y axis - its fine and clean. seems to only be the y axis now. so - i swaped the...
x6-1500 usb from omiocnc
ball screw for x and y
stepper motors. i dont have a pic of the control car, but will open it up tonight and have a look
yes everything is lubed and greased. manually moving feels effortless and fine.
Hi all, running my X6-1500usb lately I am missing steps. I have tried adjusting the motor tunings and lowering the acceleration and velocity, everything lubed up well and now even tried a different...
Not sure I understand why you would do this? Your outward perception is but your inward reflection. Enjoy your poor attitude.
the code attached is for simplicity. When i have a code with multiple radius, spring points, and varing thicknesses - i cannot simply adjust the radius as per the offset amount. it will give an...
Its rather irrelevant why i would do something. And what do you mean by roughing cycle. I work with timber. nothing is cad cam based and everything is purpose built codes for a specific task for the...
In many programs I take multiple passes to get to a finish size. I am running a NCT204 controller which runs a Fanuc Macro B controller.
For simplicity sake -
If I want to machine a circle to...
If your running an old Masterwood, your best option would be to split the code with an 'IF' statement.
#100=0 (front=0, back=1)
IF #100=0
(insert front half of code)
IF #100=1
(insert back...
Too easy. I agree with what your saying. However while complex at first, in the end will make my job very simple and quick to configure. thankyu for your help
What masterwood machine are you running?
Ive just come across another aspect i cant get my head around. When calling a sub or macro, we have 33 common variables we can pass through. How do you pass them all through. Just running a test i...
I guess your in Antarctica (lol) so you got no wood lol
is this an antivirus ?
I would say more so a virus lol
i have no clue what timber is ...
timber....? timber = wood (material)
this means more programing time, if codes are long-handed ......
Thanks Deadlykitten. Im not really doing anything with them 'yet'. im just exploring the possibilities of them atm to see whether they will be useful for my job. Essentially I have to rewrite all of...
Thanks Deadlykitten for the long winded answer. I am very aware how to code and how linear progs are more processing power efficient than parametric etc, and how variables are used .. I am merely...
Exploring the NCT Faunc based controller we have now and im trying to get my head around macros. I understand how they work and how to pass an argument though. However while it is probably not...
Ok don't worry - I have resolved my dilemma. The code structure has to be much more specific than what ive been using for the last 5 years - MW309. Hope this helps anyone else with a similar issue in...
Hi all, we recently got an old masterwood 327 retrofitted with an 'NCT 204' controller. It still has alot of work, but the basics are functioning. Ive been writing parametric programs to perform the...
can anyone who uses a Masterwood 365 give a little insight as to the ability to to access the machine parameters and settings. basically i find almost every area of the machine password locked - and...
yeah the one i have doesnt have them either - this is trying to help a worker in the business looking at another secondhand machine. i assume their just pins - they should retract before a cycle...
oh where's the fun in giving all the information, have a guess, lol.
thanks - i forgot to attach the picture.
On the Masterwood P327 (and many other machines) you have locator pins (vertical) to position the work piece in the designated field of work.
Can anyone tell me what these are and how they should...
yeah i think we need someone to come do the whole thing. now the problem is - is apparently MW australia doesnt want to help because we didnt purchase the machine through them. so essentially we are...
Put them online? rather large upload. I found on the beckoff website they have everything available to download (which is a win finally)
source data for Master AT and masterworks? what do you mean?...
