    Re: Chinese XK7130 a complete experience Review!

    I like those screensets, are these built under QtPyVCP with the help of Kurt and Turboss? I have been using LinuxCNC for a few years and just got started with making my own screensets, I can't believe how much power LinuxCNC has, it is literally completely customisable! If you're open to it I'd love to have a look at a copy of that screenset. More than understand if you'd rather not though

    Re: Chinese XK7130 a complete experience Review!

    Firstly I wanted to congratulate you on your achievements since getting your machine. You have done amazing job.
    I'm in the process of rewiring a 500Kg desktop mill switching it from Mach3 to LinuxCNC and would love to try your screens out.
    The other comment was the Servo control, when your had LinuxCNC doing close loop had you disabled the close loop on the servo drives ? and I mean have you disconnected the encoder wires from the drives ?
    Cheers

    I recommend going with still over a none branded non us company. The after sport had been horrible from this manufacturer so no I would not recommend runfa.

    New graphical user interface in testing wanted to post up a teaser video. What I can recommend strongly after using it in testing the probing routines of the interface is this touch probe from Drewtronics, its bang on for accuracy and repeatability and economically priced for the quality and craftsmanship put into them. Highly recommend!!

    Hoping to get some more videos up soon!! Been a long time making with the new interface build, anxious to get some chips flying!!

    Chris

    Another video and overview of the reparability of the machine and probe as well as a little overview of the probing functionality of the new gui!

    Is this the Pathpilot GUI or did you go with one of the myriad LinucCNC GUIs? It looks fantastic! I must admit that having left my original LinuxCNC system in the box and opted for Centroid and Newker on my 2 machines instead, I'm thinking I should have held firm.

    I don't know if you are aware that there is now a Fusion 360 post processor that supports WCS probing functions for PathPilot. This allows you to probe mid-operation to pick up accurate dimensions.

    Thanks for posting this epic adventure! I hadn't noticed it until now and it's inspiring to see how others have gone about creating their own special solutions.

    Muzzer, as stated above, this is a gui built on a new platform of designer, qtpyvcp. It's totally it's own gui running on linuxcnc. We hope to expand it as time goes on with conversational subroutines and one touch solutions!

    It's been some time since I spent any time on the LinuxCNC forum. I see there is another major thread there on the development of this GUI. It's great that you put so much effort into sharing your work for others to learn from and give inspiration!
