Hi All I am using Kflop+ kanalog with 4.12 frimware. However, the encoder channels on channel 1 is not working. i checked the Digital I/O its in the input...
Hi Azeddien, The way differential signals work is that you must put one input high and the other low to control the output. Putting the + signal at +5V and...
Thankyou Mr. TK very much for ur immediate response, however i have another question; what is the maximum number of axes i can have with Kflop+ kanalog...
Hi Azeddien, KFlop currently only contains 4 single ended quadtrature encoder counters. Kanalog converts these to 8 differential inputs. The 8 remaining...
Hi Tom, I am working on robot project where six axes of encoder feedback is needed. I will try with SanpAmp. however, if there is one board with six encoder...
Azeddien, Let us see if we can add more encoder channel to KFlop. It will probably take a week or two. TK ________________________________ From: Azd Md...
Is it best to use rotary encoders on the screw or linear glass scale encoders on the actual table? The CNC Brain uses both and I wanted to see how this...
I think this is a interesting question. You might be a bit more specific. Are you referring to steppers or servos? Obviously linear glass scales as the...
Hey TK, Had to chime in here. :) Are you saying that 1 Kflop is capable of handling both encoders and glass scales at the same time?Say.. for a 3 axis mill ;)...
Hi Troy, Yes it is looking like we can increase the number of encoder inputs from 4 to 8 which would be necessary also. TK ________________________________ ...
I was thinking of using servos with a rotary encoder connected to the driver and then using glass scales through the motion controller. I have been reading up...
Hi, I have algoerithms with morer complex data types such as structurs and classes. does the Kflop supports that, or is it possible to use Code composer studio...
The included free TCC67 C compiler is 99% ANSI C compatible so complex structures and such are certainly possible. But TCC67 is a C compiler not a C++...
Hi, does anyone is using mach3 with those control cards? I would like to... so wich one do you recomend me? I have a set of Yaskawa Junma servodrives...
with the talk of backlash comp using linear and rotary encoders I was wondering if you have room in your device to enable lead screw comp instead with both...
Hi, Is there any function to set the axis to another reference position simillar to Zero(n) without disabling the axis? In many cases the homing position is...
Hi Azed, I'm not sure I understand your issue completely. It is probably impossible to set your position without a possibility of at least one count change ...
I would think if your system has glass scales it would be better to use that to close the loop rather than to try to map errors. Our KMotionCNC software...
- ... that way you are always chasing the backlash be ok if I was running with nice new screws with nearly zero backlash even then new cnc machine tools will...
I am converting an old Bridgeport Boss mill to PC control and servos. I will be using AMC or Copley +/-10V analog servo drives and Sanyo P5 servo motors, they...
Hi Steve, Yes that should work. I believe the Sanyo P5's are brushless motors so the encoder signals will probably need to be connected to the servo drives...
... Yes the P5's are brushless motors. I already have 20+ drives that I want to use with these so no snap amps at this time - good to know they will work for...
Need help determining stepper/servo motors and DynoMotion products. Machine is large (5'x10') CNC Gantry Router with two heads. Rack/Pinion on all 4 axis,...
there is not really enough information provided to recomend a motor size. we need to know running torques and gear ratios of rack and pinion to give you a...
