Ok.. converting my mini mill to CNC.. just got the X and y up and running and wanted to calibrate my axis. I have done lots of reading and used auto cal.. and I am stumped. .
Here is what I am running
KL5056 drivers in 8 microsteps.
Nema 23 276 Oz motors
Cnc4pc C10 BOB
C7 1605 Ballscrews
MACH 3 under win 7 32 bit os
So here is what I get..
If I do the math..
200×8×5.08 I get 8128...
I put that in the steps
I have DROS mounted as well and used a dial caliper to check movement
I tell MACH 3 move 1 inch and I get .189 of movement
So I then tried the auto calibrate function.
And it calculated 40000 some steps..
And I still don't get the 1 inch though I am closer.
SOMETHING Just Seems Screwed up..
I have not changed drivers. . Could I have a bad driver..
Or am I stupid. ..
Any advice or help is appreciated. .I have several months upgrading machine..
I have been using Hoss' plans..
Thanks
