CNC aluminum with simple G code -early testing
3 years ago
94
Early testing of my CNC machine on aluminum to document progress. I just wrote a short G code file to make the simple moves show to see if the machine would lose steps or have any other issues cutting aluminum. There are all sorts of stepper motor settings which combined with power supply voltage and gearing affect performance and movement rates.
Setup:
1. Unknown CNC machine (old) kit.
2. New spindle motor and controller.
3. Tiny G V8 pcb with on-board motor controllers.
4. Chilipeppr control software: https://github.com/synthetos/TinyG/wiki/Chilipeppr.
Result: Success. No lost steps or broken parts.
