What ever I did to my old machine I could not get this to work. I just changed the pulses in vendor settings and all operational, all i can put it down to is the old stepper drivers are probably 20 years old and they're not talking to RDworks old CW260's running fractioned microsteps. Will have to have a chat with Matt when i make it out to one of his workshops. Cheers Ryan
great video. thanks. Before watching this we had bad luck today. Wouldn't dial in the way my friend was showing me, the rotary even was really hot. Monport 80watt co2 with the same type B rotary you're showing. Hopefully after watching this I can get things set up.
Hi, I was wondering what diameter do you use when you need to engrave a vase shaped object. Do you use the diameter where you want to engrave or the diameter of the vase shaped object touching the rotary tool driving wheels?
Thank you so much for putting this together. I have struggled the last few months through various posts and videos and none of them described so clearly what you have here nor provided the proof that it worked. Or maybe I just wasn't getting it. In any case, thank you very much. I will be trying this out in the very near future. Would you be able to share the spreadsheet you set up for the recalculations?
i have a 2 phase roller just like the one in your video but i need a 3 phase for my new laser. can i change it to a 3 phase. if yes what motor do i need to get. Thanks P.S. Your videos are very helpful
You can replace with a 3 phase motor with the same mounting and shaft length as your current 2 phase one. If you need assistance selecting motor email me matt@mwlaser.com.au Cheers
An outstanding video and very helpful. I've been under utilizing my laser for years and now am confident enough to move forward. Great job. Question however... I'm running a Chinese Red/Black. The stepper drivers are not labeled. How can I tell which one is for which axis? Liked / Subbed
Thank you. If you cannot trace wires to the motor, the easiest way to know which driver is X & Y, is to remove the connection plugs from one driver, then power on machine and see which axis does not move.

The best video ever to calibrate rotary. Precise for every diameter object, well done sir.

Awesome info!

Thanks!
Fantastic Video. Thank you!
Glad it helped!

This could be done by measuring where it contacts the drive wheels
Question I don't have "other" under my user menu. Where else would it be? I'm using RDWorkds. Thanks
what version of RD Works are you using?
You can update to V8.01.48 here mwlaser.com.au/sdm_downloads/rd-works-v8-01-48/

The 80W Red and Black i ordered comes with DM545A Drivers, will that unit work the same with the drivers i have?
Yes, Select the 2-Phase Step Motor option when purchasing.

@@_Vinyl-zs8fe No prob. Cheers
good
Thanks
hi Matt love your videos i have gained a lot can you send my a diagram of the ruida rdc 6445s wirring diagram for the rotary axis please
you will find this in the user manual for your controller
Super Video, Funktioniert bei mir leider nicht.
thanks
