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...
Unfortunately I purchased the machine used and do not have specs. I can remove covers and measure gears and racks, and will get back with that information. I...
I am familiar with the Applied motion motors. I know the RapidSyn is a Superior Elec/Danaher motor and I have used their Servo SloSyn but never the stepper...
Collected some further information: Machine requires 1056.25 steps per inch with stepper driver set at full-step mode, steppers requiring 200 steps per...
This MPG Pendant shown below has been interfaced to KFLOP using a simple User C Program. There is a User C Program in the Files section of the Forum called ...
When i jog or use GO the table does not just make a quick halt when done. It moves past the stop point and then reverses i few mm then halts. What parameter...
One possibility is that the system is configured to move faster than your power supply/amplifiers/motors allow. If the motion trajectory is too fast the...
This problem i solved. I have belived that i should use encoders with as high count as possible. I was using ecoders with 41615 counts / inch. Today i set them...
How does the Kflop work in conjunction with Mach3? I know there is a plugin and I saw the online step-by-step documentation about how to configure it. Here's...
Hi Wes, When using Mach3 with our board, Mach3 is still interpreting the GCode, doing the trajectory planning (accelerating/decelerating), and scaling inch or...
OK, I see what you are saying about Mach just sending down xyz coordinates for a point and separating all those points by 2ms of time and buffering on the...
Well the buffering does cause feedhold delay if handled by Mach3. Since Mach3 runs under MS Windows which may occasionally "freeze" for a few seconds there...
Wes I am running a Kflop,2 snapamps, and 3 protobyte steppers. My machine uses 2 servos on X,1 on Y and 3 steppers for my 3 spindles. My X and Y rapids are...
THANK YOU FOR THE RESPONSE. I like the looks of the Kflop (and the price.). I didn't get any responses on the other forum. I'm just trying now to see if...
How do i make a subroutine work? I made a program galling the subroutine with M98 P22 (22.ngc is the subroutine) But all i get is "subroutine not found" Both...
KMotionCNC currently only supports subroutines in the same file. Such as: G20 G0 X0 Y0 Z0 M98 P100 (Call the Subroutine) M2 (Stop) O100 (Subroutine Label) F40...
We don't support that; the obvious workaround would be to make the call 4 times. _____ From: DynoMotion@yahoogroups.com [mailto:DynoMotion@yahoogroups.com] On ...
I need some help writing a code that sets a bit to 1 with a push on a button, and the same button should put the bit to 0 if pushed again, if its set to 1. ...
Try This: #include "KMotionDef.h"  #define BITNO 46 // change this to the bit that should toggle  main() {    SetBitDirection(BITNO,1); // makes...
I bought the MPG from kelinginc and connected it to my kflop. All worked great apart from the enable button on the MPG. It works when i dont hold down the...
Stefan, Isn't that the way it is supposed to work? I found this: http://cnc4pc.com/images/MPG2_F.jpg I think that S1 is the enable switch and basically is...
This is a sefty feature. It should not work if u dont hold down the button. That way u cant by misstake jog. If its the other way around the enable button...
I want to modify my machine so i can program M3 and M4, now i have to start and stop the motors manualy. I need a C code that when M3 it checks that the pin...
Good question. Below (and attached) are 3 C programs that I think do what you require. If an M4 is called after an M3, then the M3 bit will be turned off,...
