I have built a wire cutter ( really cool ) it feeds the wire out via 2 rubber rollers through guides then chops it off using a shear blade . The length is the...
Hi Bob This is about the way I tried but it will not do anything I used cut and paste to make sure I didn't type it wrong . When I hit run it drops to the...
Hi Ron Are you using the full version of CNCPRO? Not the lite? I use this subroutine/looping all the time. One thing I did have a problem with one time was...
BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG The sound of success Thanks Bob that did it God it is great to see something you created come to life . It is now spitting out...
Hi Ron You are quite welcome. I have had CNCpro for a long time also, bought from Doug on ebay years ago. It runs a 4-axis flatbed mill---I really like it....
Hi I have tried to use constant contour on several occasions ( on 3 different machines and 4 different computers up to 1.1 GHZ.) but have never gotten good...
I assume from the defining silence that the constant contour is not working for for the rest of you either Ron ... -- Ron Kline American Precision Ceramics...
Ron, I regularly use constant contour, don't know if it helps but I haven't traced any problems to it. Most of my work is jewellery scaled contouring using...
Hi Ron I have not had stalls, but I can't say that it really works. If I am running a file that has a lot of short line segments, like when I'm engraving...
Well I guess I need to keep working on the problem , all I'm doing right now is putting a 2" radius on the corners of a Plexiglas table . Seams like an easy...
Yes with stepper motors on short line segments I keep getting a "growling " sound sometimes losing steps and sometimes not . ... -- Ron Kline American...
Now you've got me all curious about how you built your wire cutter! How did you actuate the cutter up and down? I can see that the rollers would be just a...
Hi Mike Actually I gave up on the rubber rollers and I'm using a ball bearing on top and a ( can't remember the name of it but they use them for rubber springs...
What a great solution! Was the 48v solenoid run at 48v? Was it accurate in the length? Why not just post pics here in the group as well? Mike ... bearing on ...
... Yes , I used a variable power supply and a HUGE cap because I needed a large current for only a fraction of a second . ... As long as the points were clean...
Cars have a condensor across the points to lower the amount of arcing. Maybe that would help. Pics? Mike ... get ... rubber ... ground on ... current ... shaft...
Hi Mike I posted 6 photos in the photo section under "Wire cutter" folder The resolution is high enough that you can click on the thumbnail and get a 3X3 but...
Sweet! Looks like it could cut 10 million parts! So the cam is on the innermost part of the shaft, then the rubber roller, right? I've been around alot of...
... No cam , just a stepper motor with a piece of hard rubber glued to the shaft . Do you know how to fire this solenoid without burning out the solid state...
OK, so the roller or cam is made of rubber right? I designed a circuit for firing a solenoid. It could be fired by your points, but they would never need...
Has anyone noticed this site: http://www.ronchinimassimo.com/cncpro.htm I can't read Italian but it appears they are selling/promoting CNCPro. Pirates?...
CNCPro has had some good exposure in Model Engineer Workshop in the UK, with at least one Euro vendor selling the package. I suspect it's legitimate. I...
