Hi all,
Im hoping someone can help me. I have just built up a DIY CNC router but am having issues when it comes to the stepper motors. When i power up the units then some of the motor lock up while other are able to move by hand. Also I have found that when I start cutting the vibrations when cutting are making my z axis move into the job. I have tried to look up information but am getting so confused as I have little experience in this field.
I want to find out is there a setting i can do to make sure that when a stepper motor is not being used it will stay locked, be these via a setting in GRBL or putting more amp to the stepper. Like i said before I have little experience in this and if someone could explain it in dummy form that would be great.
Much appreciated.
Derek
