[00:02:04] <skunkworks_> pcw, are you around?
[00:02:58] <PCW> Yeah
[00:05:00] <skunkworks_> so - I took the 5i20 config and set it to 5i25.. I installed the firmware (picked one that seemed to have stepgens.. dmmbob1x2
[00:05:09] <skunkworks_> I don't get anything on the step pins..
[00:05:14] <skunkworks_> dir seem to change
[00:05:29] <skunkworks_> I have to be doing something stupid
[00:05:30] -!- asdfasd1 [asdfasd1!~332332@94.0.109.96] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:05:57] <skunkworks_> if I run the feedrate way down (scale is only 1000) I don't see step changing.
[00:07:47] <skunkworks_> From what I gather - pin 2 should be direction pin 3 should be step (for the first stepgen - x)
[00:08:55] -!- asdfasd has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]
[00:11:31] <PCW> Yeah that should be right (did you cycle the power after writing the new firmware?)
[00:11:45] <PCW> (or look at dmesg)
[00:11:56] <skunkworks_> yes
[00:12:06] <skunkworks_> I was looking at dmesg to figure out the pins
[00:12:21] -!- jleh has quit [Ping timeout: 265 seconds]
[00:12:25] <skunkworks_> it didn't run initally (because no stepgens in the 5i25)

[00:19:35] <PCW> well that config seems to work for me (at least the step I/O is where its expected and works)
[00:19:47] <skunkworks_> darn
[00:20:01] <Jymmm> XXCoder: Hell, you could backup a lo-boy, and print-on-site.
[00:20:20] <PCW> step pulses to short?
[00:20:32] <XXCoder> I wonder if one could make cnc builder. one that also does electric system and such lol
[00:20:35] <skunkworks_> oh - that could be...
[00:21:10] <Jymmm> XXCoder: You know have they have cranes that just raise up as the building is built? Like that.
[00:21:43] <PCW> you can always try quadrature mode if looking with LEDs
[00:22:08] <Jymmm> XXCoder: It has wheels on the ground, then as the walls are printed, they also serve as linear rails
[00:23:03] <Jymmm> Much like a tuck has those attachments for running on rialroad tracks

[00:24:15] <skunkworks_> thanks

[00:40:19] <XXCoder> cnc that shit
[00:41:15] <Jymmm> For me, laser it
[00:41:30] <XXCoder> I want a laser too
[00:41:54] <Jymmm> I have a laser
[00:43:29] <Jymmm> Whats funny is if you laser a large area on wood, what happens is the various veins of the grain go deeper/lighter and change in height
[00:43:55] <XXCoder> lol thats cool
[00:44:44] <Jymmm> Yeah, it's an unexpected effect, but the wood density varioies in it's interaction with the laser.
[00:45:31] <XXCoder> I suppose to get constant depth you have to make it look and compeste
[00:45:48] <Jymmm> I did some cocobolo once.... that was bad, real bad.
[00:46:23] <Jymmm> there is just so much resin in it, that the laser mostly charred the resin before efectign the wood

[01:37:48] <malcom2073> for 3d printing I mean
[01:40:36] <Jymmm> malcom2073: You should be asking them

[02:14:19] <zmi> I have installed linuxcnc ubuntu
[02:14:34] <zmi> i have problem with video and network
[02:15:54] <zmi> in the channel ubuntu they say no support there because this ubuntu is different for linuxcnc
[02:18:23] <jdh> did you run the latency check from teh live-cd before installing? (not really related, just curious if the chipset is suitable anyway)
[02:18:49] <XXCoder> I should do that test. next time
[02:18:54] <zmi> i dont know much about this OS
[02:19:08] <XXCoder> does it say if latency test was good or not? or does it just state number
[02:19:20] <jdh> just the numbers

[15:23:53] <CaptHindsight> archivist: that display can be made for less than the cost of an LCD display
[15:28:11] <Deejay> LC display or LCD
[15:28:12] <SpeedEvil> CaptHindsight: really, really debatable.
[15:28:15] <CaptHindsight> their £1.2m grant has run out!? what were they doing spending it on parties?
[15:28:25] <SpeedEvil> CaptHindsight: It also has onerous power requirements likely
[15:29:11] <CaptHindsight> I just ran the numbers, power is not an issue
[15:29:54] <SpeedEvil> Using what data?
[15:30:31] <SpeedEvil> Also - 7" LCDs are well under $20 in bulk
[15:30:41] <pcw_home> those electrostatically driven elastomers would be lower power (assuming you could get enough motion)
[15:30:53] <CaptHindsight> Joules/per dot ate required height
[15:31:34] <CaptHindsight> it's not electrostatically driven, it phase change wax
[15:31:43] <CaptHindsight> ate/at
[15:32:01] <pcw_home> I'm not talking about the wax one
[15:32:17] <CaptHindsight> yeah, I can make a wax based display for a few $$
[15:33:00] <CaptHindsight> PCW: sorry yeah, ends up the EAP's are ~100V/um of travel
[15:34:14] <CaptHindsight> i was trying to use EAP's but they either require too high a working voltage 4-5KV or a cantilever
[15:37:20] <CaptHindsight> the wax display is mainly a pcb with a silicone film with conductive wax cells and a frame for the dot channels to expand and contract into
[15:39:42] <pcw_home> similar wax as car thermostat wax?

[15:43:44] <CaptHindsight> if the wax is also the heater then the pcb is even easier to make

[15:48:49] <pcw_home> seems like for that you just want a standard component (tall and skinny) that mounts to a PCB

[16:57:35] <tjtr33> a buddy wants to use reprap to make quik&dirty models of car parts before using cnc to cut metal.
[16:57:44] <tjtr33> is it practical in time & materials to ( for instance) model a caliper mount to really see interference as we turn the wheels?
[16:57:46] <tjtr33> is this a reasonable use for reprap?

[16:58:04] <CaptHindsight> it's cheaper to make a DLP resin printer
[16:58:09] <CaptHindsight> they are also faster

[16:58:40] <tjtr33> any links to projects?
[16:59:04] <tjtr33> yah yah i can google it, thx for the tip
[16:59:30] <CaptHindsight> https://code.google.com/p/lemoncurry/wiki/main but go top down projection
[16:59:59] <CaptHindsight> the projector and vat are stationary only the stage moves
[17:00:48] <tjtr33> ok might use my epson and sable 2015 hacked up :)
[17:01:10] <CaptHindsight> the z-axis with stage is the only moving part
[17:01:17] <tjtr33> is it really a single axis? just Zposn++ ?
[17:01:20] <tjtr33> wow
[17:01:36] <CaptHindsight> you dunk the stage under the resin and lift it to the desired layer thickness
[17:01:47] <CaptHindsight> expose, dunk, repeat
[17:02:14] <tjtr33> oh Zposn-- :)
[17:02:41] <tjtr33> will read up thx
[17:02:53] <CaptHindsight> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKk2vRysioE starts around 1:00, but use a projector vs laser and galvo
[17:04:10] <CaptHindsight> the distance between the surface of the resin and the last cured layer below sets the layer thickness
[17:04:19] * SpeedEvil wonders about e-beam selective sintering.
[17:04:25] <CaptHindsight> it works
[17:04:51] <CaptHindsight> same for e-beam deposition
[17:05:28] <CaptHindsight> most of this stuff is 10-20 years old but has been suppressed by the patent holders
[17:05:42] <CaptHindsight> if they can't have their way then nobody wins
[17:06:05] <tjtr33> oh upside down from my 1st mental image, stalactites

[17:07:08] <CaptHindsight> the bottom up uses a clear vat that you project the light onto from underneath
[17:07:48] <SpeedEvil> how does the stuff not stick to the base?
[17:07:54] <CaptHindsight> the issues are separating the cured part from the vat after each layer is cured
[17:08:10] <CaptHindsight> if you use top down it's not an issue
[17:08:34] <CaptHindsight> if you use bottom up then the resin acts like an adhesive

[17:09:32] <CaptHindsight> even if there was no adhesion there is still a pressure differential so it acts like a suction cup
[17:10:16] <CaptHindsight> there are some tricks to the materials used for the clear vat bottom and how it gets separated
[17:10:54] <tjtr33> are the parts delicate? could i hold it in place to see fit & interference w/o having it crumble?
[17:10:59] <CaptHindsight> PTFE or high oxygen containing films plus tilting for example
[17:11:21] <tjtr33> i dont expect to bolt it up
[17:11:31] <CaptHindsight> tjtr33: I'm making parts that you can hit with a bat
[17:11:43] <tjtr33> this sound good
[17:11:45] <SpeedEvil> tjtr33: 3d printed stuff is generally as strong as most other non-structural plastic
[17:11:54] <SpeedEvil> Think your average toy
[17:12:08] <CaptHindsight> tjtr33: I can hook you up with the resins/photopolymers
[17:12:13] <SpeedEvil> If it's a thick section, it can be quite strong indeed
[17:12:20] <SpeedEvil> Even with PLA
[17:12:31] <tjtr33> hmmm charles prints of venus were a bit fragile ( wichita )
[17:12:47] <SpeedEvil> It depends on the material
[17:12:58] <SpeedEvil> you get everything from sand to inconel.
[17:13:07] <SpeedEvil> Inconel isn't noticably weak :)
[17:13:11] <CaptHindsight> I'm blending metal resin composites that have qualities similar to 6061
[17:13:30] <tjtr33> Capt thx, will see if my epson is strong enuf for a DLP
[17:13:45] <tjtr33> SpeedEvil, what about your vacuum?
[17:14:12] <CaptHindsight> yeah no problem, I even blend for sensitivity into the Blue 470nm
[17:14:45] <SpeedEvil> tjtr33: I have a vacuum pump that's basically adequate to evacuate a chamber well enough for e-beam sintering
[17:14:49] <CaptHindsight> tjtr33: you can use the epson as is, it might even be an LCD vs DLP

[22:17:12] <CaptHindsight> zeehero: the arduino shields like RAMPS are for controlling tiny stepper motors, motors that can run a small cnc machine
[22:19:27] <zeehero> Hmm, I suppose my next question is why 3D printers tend to use USB to connect to the computer and CNC controllers seem to almost always use parallel ports instead - why do CNCs need real time OS communication and 3D printers don't?
[22:20:23] <Jymmm> zeehero: Uh, have you seen how "precise" or lack there of printers are?
[22:20:53] -!- jerryitt has quit [Quit: Connection closed for inactivity]
[22:21:02] <Jymmm> zeehero: and there isn't really a lot of tightly coordinate moves in a printer
[22:21:03] <kengu> zeehero: the usb is used to transfer gcode, parallel port is used to transfer ste&dir
[22:21:40] <zeehero> kengu: I see, so the difference is that the machine is sending direct instructions in the case of cnc rather than being parsed at the machine level
[22:21:58] <zeehero> er, computer is sending direct instructions
[22:22:01] <kengu> yeah.
[22:22:14] <zeehero> Jymmm: I've never had problems.
[22:22:28] <Jymmm> zeehero: linuxcnc can do 8 axises simultanously
[22:22:50] <Jymmm> No, you haven't, but you are not moving very fast or difficutl either.
[22:22:51] <zeehero> kengu: So I'd need to use a real time OS like a linux (obviously, given the name) to properly communicate
[22:23:19] <zeehero> Jymmm: I'm not subtracting material with my printer, no resistance, so understandably it's easy to run one and get precision - nothing's holding it back.
[22:23:38] <kengu> to communicate with stepper directly, yes.
[22:23:58] <Jymmm> zeehero: printing isn't very precise at all if you think about it there is a LOT of slop in it
[22:24:11] <zeeshan|2> jymmm lies!
[22:24:16] <Jymmm> lol
[22:24:17] <zeeshan|2> i did a print test on my laser printer :]

[22:24:38] <Jymmm> zeehero: Care to put $100 USD via Paypal on it?
[22:24:39] <zeeshan|2> it was dead on in the horizontal direction but 25 thou out in the vertical direction
[22:24:45] <zeeshan|2> i guess the roller had runout
[22:25:03] <zeehero> anyhow, what kind of requirements are needed of the computer driving the port?
[22:25:08] <zeeshan|2> i was just wondering, cause i print out designs
[22:25:15] <zeeshan|2> and lay them out on metal
[22:25:23] <zeehero> Since it's rather hard to find machines with those ports that aren't rather old or specifically ordered
[22:25:28] <zeeshan|2> its fairly accurate way of quickly laying out :]
[22:25:54] <kengu> zeehero: some "office desktops" lenovo/hp
[22:26:07] <zeehero> kengu: hmm, would an ancient thinkpad be able to handle it?
[22:26:28] <kengu> laptops are not always able
[22:26:40] <kengu> I was not able to get real time os working on one
[22:26:41] <zeehero> Hmm, that's concerning, what're the reasonings behind that?
[22:26:52] <kengu> but it is working on two other laptops
[22:27:02] <kengu> google rtos+laptop
[22:27:11] <zeehero> I will, guess it's not a simple answer then
[22:27:24] <kengu> or google rtos+[your laptop model]
[22:27:30] <zeehero> I've got old desktops to throw at this, though, so it's largely a non-issue
[22:29:00] <zeehero> I guess the last couple questions I have for a moment are : what's the desired strength of stepper (would 128oz-in do alright?) and what should I look for in router spindles?

[23:20:16] <zeeshan|2> i need some adsvice
[23:20:25] <zeeshan|2> anyone hear of 'hydraulic servos'
[23:20:30] <zeeshan|2> whats the proper term
[23:20:58] <CaptHindsight> hydraulic actuator maybe
[23:21:11] <CaptHindsight> if thats what you are referring to
[23:21:59] <CaptHindsight> or is it a valve?
[23:22:17] <PCW> relatively common on old CNC machines (and flight simulators)
[23:23:09] <zeeshan|2> CaptHindsight: im doing a lot of research in forming
[23:23:12] <zeeshan|2> and im going to be working with
[23:23:26] <zeeshan|2> instron servopress 150
[23:23:27] <zeeshan|2> and
[23:23:41] <zeeshan|2> interlaken servo press
[23:23:43] <zeeshan|2> 150ton
[23:23:50] <zeeshan|2> i'm just trying to do research on the machines
[23:23:56] <zeeshan|2> so i have a clue
[23:24:01] <zeeshan|2> never worked on this sort of equipment before
[23:24:18] <zeeshan|2> http://mmri.mcmaster.ca/mfl/facilities_interlaken.html
[23:24:26] <zeeshan|2> from the brief look i got
[23:24:32] <zeeshan|2> its got 4 'actuators'
[23:24:41] <zeeshan|2> i think ive heard them called 'hydraulic servos'
[23:24:54] -!- toastydeath has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[23:25:09] <PCW> probably some force/bandwidth trade-off where hydraulic makes more sense then motors/screws
[23:25:19] <CaptHindsight> yeah they are pistons that respond to voltage , so more than just ON/OFF
[23:25:27] <zeeshan|2> so
[23:25:33] <zeeshan|2> voltage is directly propoertional to linear motion
[23:25:38] <zeeshan|2> similar to an electronic servo
[23:25:46] <zeeshan|2> but instead uses hydraulic fluid?
[23:25:48] <CaptHindsight> depends on the controls
[23:26:09] <PCW> yeah may be position or force feedback (or both)
[23:26:34] <zeeshan|2> okay, i need to get manuals for these
[23:26:41] <zeeshan|2> i wanna know em inside out!
[23:26:43] <zeeshan|2> 2 years is along time
[23:27:18] <CaptHindsight> http://www.moog.com/products/actuators-servoactuators/industrial/hydraulic/
[23:27:37] <zeeshan|2> wow
[23:27:46] <zeeshan|2> its a frigging hydraulic cylinder with an encoder on it
[23:27:46] <zeeshan|2> haha
[23:28:05] <zeeshan|2> a085 seems to have a transducer on it too
[23:28:12] <zeeshan|2> so im assuming pressure feedback like pcw was saying
[23:28:13] <PCW> and a fancy Moog spool valve
[23:28:17] <CaptHindsight> and maybe a valve with an encoder and motor to control the amount it opens/closes
[23:28:33] <_methods> don't want your ram gettin racked\
[23:28:40] <zeeshan|2> what controls the valve open and close
[23:28:45] <zeeshan|2> i mean thats what prolly makes it a servomechanism
[23:28:51] <zeeshan|2> cause a regular cylinder is on and off
[23:29:04] <_methods> very bad if those cylinders get racked
[23:29:07] <_methods> they get stuck
[23:29:13] <PCW> The valves are sort of voice coil arrangements
[23:29:38] <CaptHindsight> or valve with servo motor or stepper to control its position
[23:30:00] <zeeshan|2> how do you control the extension length of the cylinder acutuator
[23:30:01] <CaptHindsight> so it can control the rate of flow in and out of the cylinder
[23:30:04] <zeeshan|2> when you can only control the fluid pressure?
[23:30:06] <zeeshan|2> through the valve
[23:30:07] <PCW> they are normally voice coils for speed
[23:30:28] <CaptHindsight> encoder on the piston as well as the valve
[23:30:43] <zeeshan|2> yes, but encoder on the piston is telling position
[23:30:46] <zeeshan|2> how do you actually control the position?
[23:30:53] -!- rob_h has quit [Ping timeout: 264 seconds]
[23:30:54] <zeeshan|2> by oscillating the fluid flow?
[23:31:06] <CaptHindsight> by opening and closing the valves
[23:31:17] <zeeshan|2> ahhh. and the voice coils makse sense
[23:31:21] <zeeshan|2> cause you gotta do it at high speed
[23:31:38] <PCW> many CNC machines of the 60's used this for axis position control
[23:32:01] <zeeshan|2> well when i search for cnc machines i come across thread forming cnc machines
[23:32:06] <zeeshan|2> and they seem to be still hydraulic based
[23:32:10] <CaptHindsight> you just play with the pressure on each side of the piston or use the load on the piston form return/retract
[23:32:12] <zeeshan|2> never looked too much into the servomechanism
[23:32:26] <zeeshan|2> CaptHindsight: makes snse!
[23:32:48] <zeeshan|2> so interesting. :]
[23:32:53] <PCW> still used for flight simulators and things that shake whole buildings
[23:33:16] <zeeshan|2> okay, one last question
[23:33:21] <zeeshan|2> its of a completely different subject
[23:33:40] <zeeshan|2> has anyone got experience in using 2 ccd cameras in stereo configuration to measure the depth of something?
[23:33:51] <zeeshan|2> the thing i keep finding online is
[23:33:55] <zeeshan|2> 'long range imaging'
[23:34:09] <zeeshan|2> but it doesn't give much info on how to actually do it
[23:34:12] <zeeshan|2> just describes the process
[23:34:18] <_methods> opencv
[23:34:25] <_methods> might have something for it
[23:34:54] <_methods> http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/features2d/feature_description/feature_description.html
[23:35:12] <_methods> eh ignore that
[23:35:33] <zeeshan|2> http://i.stack.imgur.com/UQUYY.jpg
[23:35:33] <zeeshan|2> wow
[23:35:39] <zeeshan|2> thats done using opencv...
[23:35:48] <zeeshan|2> thats exactly what im looking for
[23:35:51] <_methods> yeah opencv is great
[23:35:53] <zeeshan|2> im wondering if thats done with 1 cam
[23:35:54] <zeeshan|2> or 2 cams
[23:36:23] <_methods> http://docs.opencv.org/trunk/doc/py_tutorials/py_calib3d/py_depthmap/py_depthmap.html?highlight=disparity%20map
[23:36:25] <CaptHindsight> http://ojs.academypublisher.com/index.php/jcp/article/download/jcp0702399404/4328 and tons of similar papers covering the algorithms
[23:36:54] <zeeshan|2> CaptHindsight: i'm not a programmer!
[23:37:05] <zeeshan|2> okay
[23:37:07] <zeeshan|2> im gonan shut up
[23:37:09] <zeeshan|2> cause the paper you gave me
[23:37:11] <zeeshan|2> shows me the math :]
[23:37:15] <zeeshan|2> thank you!
[23:37:21] <zeeshan|2> whatd you search for?
[23:37:33] <zeeshan|2> you guys are awesome
[23:37:36] <zeeshan|2> so resourceful
[23:37:40] <zeeshan|2> <3
[23:37:42] <CaptHindsight> stereoscopic scanning
[23:37:46] <_methods> yeah i don't know shit.......
[23:37:52] <zeeshan|2> _methods: that link is good too
[23:38:09] <zeeshan|2> i've gott acome up with a quick and easy way to measure strain fields
[23:38:12] <zeeshan|2> for bulge stesting
[23:38:23] <zeeshan|2> we wanna investigate how much it'd cost to just build a quick rig
[23:38:27] <zeeshan|2> vs buying commercial units
[23:38:31] <CaptHindsight> whats the range of deflection and what res do you need?
[23:38:38] <_methods> CaptHindsight is the man he does all that micro shit
[23:38:46] <zeeshan|2> CaptHindsight:
[23:38:50] <zeeshan|2> do you know what a bulge test is?
[23:38:58] <zeeshan|2> and im not talking about the dirty one.
[23:39:23] <zeeshan|2> you take a blank disc
[23:39:40] <zeeshan|2> and you clamp it down around the periphery, and pressure one side of with thousands of psi of fluid pressure
[23:39:45] <zeeshan|2> you end up with a dome like this:
[23:39:48] <zeeshan|2> http://www.emeraldinsight.com/content_images/fig/1270830402007.png
[23:39:51] <zeeshan|2> and a very repeatable failure
[23:39:56] <zeeshan|2> due to biaxial loading

[23:40:46] <CaptHindsight> gotta go, but post the questions
[23:40:47] <zeeshan|2> what you do is spray on a spectral pattern
[23:40:56] <zeeshan|2> the smallest dot is 0.1mm
[23:41:01] <zeeshan|2> over the 6 diameter of the disc
[23:41:14] <zeeshan|2> and the sphere grows to about 3" in height
[23:41:17] <CaptHindsight> these guys will know
