Cheap 4th axis tear down and re-grinding
Просмотров 30 тыс.4 года назад
I bought a cheap 4th axis from China, and combined it with a 1kW AC servo motor (also from China). The result is a super fast 4th axis, that can do precise positioning for 4-axis milling and indexing, and also reach 1000 RPM for turning operations. But how good is a $150 spindle mount? In this video I measure the run-out, and improve it by regrinding the mounting cone on the CNC mill. Visit my ...
Riding my self-made recumbent trike

Full-suspension recumbent trike, built from scratch. It has double wishbone front suspension with 15cm travel (using extension springs to save space), and a rear swing arm from an old mountain bike. The frame is welded from mild steel, with a few parts over-wrapped with carbon fibre for extra stiffness. The front suspension is dialed in to have a lot of dynamic camber, to exactly balance the ro...
Wirebender - better, faster version
Просмотров 57 тыс.4 года назад
Sligthly improved version of my DIY wire bending machine. Parts are printed on an Anycubic Photon S printer. For control, GRBL on an Arduino Mega with a RAMPS board is used. GCode was written by hand, and optimized through trial and error.

Lathe threading with GRBL (testing)
Просмотров 11 тыс.6 лет назад
I started adding a spindle synchronisation mode to GRBL, to enable threading on the lathe. First I added the G95 mode (feedrate per revolution), which measures the actual spindle speed with an encoder (on this lathe, a 4 tick/rev magnetic encoder), and adjusts the feedrate continuously in real-time. This works pretty well, but does not synchronise to the absolute spindle position, so repeat pas...

    Hey man, I know this is an old video, but I hope you see this comment. 1. This is really good work and a lot of people don't appreciate the differences between CNC mills and lathes. Probably about half the G codes are different. 2. On a lower comment asking about what happens at the end of the thread; the default mode is that the x axis just retracts at rapid rate, usually leaving a clean end of the thread. You can usually set parameters that will let you control how long this retract takes, e.g. you can have the thread lead out over 5 turns (good for not leaving a high-stress zone at the end of the thread.) 3. On some of the examples it looks like your thread pitch is a little inconsistent (I don't know if that's just the marker being flexible or not). I can't speak for other controllers, but I know that on older FANUC controllers when you do normal G1 feed cutting the machine will adjust the motion to compensate for changes in spindle speed to maintain a constant feed per revolution. In thread cutting it takes a different approach: First it moves to the start point of the threading, then it waits for the next zero count of the spindle encoder, then the Z axis moves at a calculated feedrate in feed/min and any errors are not compensated for as the thread is cut. For this reason most controllers disable spindle and feedrate override controls on the panel. As long as your spindle speed stays constant, your feed/min on your Z axis stays constant, and you start your Z axis movement at the same encoder count, you should get nice consistent threading.

    @trevortighe 3 года назад

    I like your loop idea instead of two independent pins. The loop over the top gives the plastic enough strength to bend the wire. I used your idea in my own bender. But I used a wire loop. The wire loop can bend wire of the same material and diameter. And it can do tight bends. The ability to bend both ways is great. And it does not take up space and obstruct previous bends. See a demo of my version here ruclips.net/video/6MN7tmMBlqI/видео.html

    • @codemakeshare
      @codemakeshare 3 года назад

      Very nice! It's a good idea to use a wire loop. The resin-printed bend gate lasted for a while with soft copper wire, but eventually broke. When looking for other wire benders, I saw a lot of commercial machines with a retractable single pin, which is a lot more complicated. I think this version works fine for a lot of use cases, and is a lot simpler. It's great to see your machine bending in 3D, and that the 2-way bend with the loop works there as well!

      I don't have it available right now, but there's nothing special in it. With the soft copper wire, the trick for smooth bends was to rotate the aperture, and then just feed wire. The bend radius was trial and error, my gcode was just hand coded and tested until it looked right.

      that's a separate issue - the belt pulleys aren't perfectly centered either. The bearings are tight though, and I don't think that any wobble from the pulleys transfers to the axle. After re-grinding, it was almost perfect.
