Homing with "X" axis with "A" motor as the SLAVE
I have now added switches so I can HOME and SQUARE the X axis. I have a question about how this should work. Here is what I get when I hit "REF ALL HOME" The X axis moves in the - direction (AS

Who supply the HTD pulleys? Will for sure source them ¨C the better my system works the better I am. I noted another issue- when doing a test in the air with this code, I noticed the spindle does not

Re: Support
Great ! So, with the lower acceleration, the error does not appear, yes ? Now, to confirm, put it back up to 100 again, and see if it now appears. If it does, with high confidence, you have

Re: Support
I did the tests a few times and the z-axis comes back to the correct zero position. This is after I have reduced the acceleration. Sent: 17 February 2015 02:41 PM To: mach1mach2cnc@...

Well let me explain what I do. Remember my machine is using a manual tool change, so every time I execute M6, it will go to the tool change position, I insert the new tool. Then I press OK. The cnc

Re: Where do I find the extra 0.0003"
I can buy (and live with) a rounding error. I'm not about to start diddling the screen at this point, I'm still a babe-in-the-woods with most of this stuff, so if it ain't broke bad enough to actually

Re: Where do I find the extra 0.0003"
Could maybe be roundoff. Its small enough. What the DROs state is not exact .. they are a truncation (? or rounded ) from the internal representation, that was something very accurate. 32 digits maybe

This is, by far, the best method. The most important thing in troubleshooting is to only change one thing at a time. And, if you think you have discovered simething important, go back and verify it

Re: Support
I didn't know you could do that. I've learnt something. If you change tool number (length dia etc) wouldn't you have to change the rest of the code or you'll be cutting over or under size. I confess,

Re: Support
Andre, Your statement that you changed Z heights to above the work and ran the code with no problems and always have problems with the next tool when cutting makes the scenario Art was describing fit.

Hi Yes. This way the zero position is always a fixed position and is just easier for me. I found that sometimes when zeroing on top of the material, the board tends to bend on the corners sometimes,
