[02:03:13] <ssi> I'm having a really hard time coming up with a drag chain configuration that can run 48" and maintain enough stiffness to stay out of places it shouldn't be
[02:03:17] <ssi> like in the beam :(

[02:04:15] <ssi> on the gantry car?
[02:04:26] -!- mhaberler has quit [Client Quit]
[02:04:31] <Tom_itx> yeah that might not work there
[02:05:16] <ssi> what's not helping is i have to run 1/4" nylon tubing through it, and that really increases the bend radius
[02:06:39] <ssi> also the gantry car completely encloses the gantry, so I have nowhere to attach a tray or ledge or something like that
[02:10:15] <CaptHindsight> please post pics of the problem

[02:28:47] <q_p> how I can unpause a cnc after I use M00 ?
[02:30:40] -!- sylphiae [sylphiae!~sylphiae@c-24-1-147-220.hsd1.in.comcast.net] has joined #linuxcnc
[02:31:37] <q_p> how I can unpause a cnc after I use M00 ?
[02:32:35] <ssi> CaptHindsight: here's the best configuration I've come up with
[02:32:35] <ssi> https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bs36U7GIcAA4rml.jpg:large
[02:32:39] <ssi> major sag on the near end
[02:32:44] <ssi> https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bs36XVdIUAA7I-G.jpg:large
[02:32:46] <ssi> lift on the far end
[02:33:04] <ssi> I think I can mitigate the latter by making a hook on the gantry car which constrains the chain height
[02:33:10] -!- badon [badon!~badon@pdpc/supporter/active/badon] has joined #linuxcnc
[02:33:15] <ssi> that at least will make sure it can get underneath that top left rail
[02:33:19] <ssi> which right now it hits
[02:33:38] <ssi> but the sag I'm not sure what to do about
[02:35:40] prtksxna is now known as zz_prtksxna
[02:39:31] <CaptHindsight> we usually position the chain so that it lays flat at full extension then curls up and back around when moving to the opposite end of the axis
[02:40:16] <CaptHindsight> or sideways like in your first pic
[02:41:02] <ssi> laying it flat and curling up has the same issue... when the car is at the near position, the chain is sagging and laying on the table
[02:41:08] <ssi> there's nothing to lay it on for support
[02:41:19] <CaptHindsight> are you cam bearings on both sides of the t-slot?
[02:41:24] <ssi> yes
[02:41:40] <ssi> laying the chain sideways is problematic too
[02:41:48] <ssi> because it'll bow either backward and interfere with the tube,
[02:41:50] <ssi> or forward into the beam
[02:42:03] -!- a_morale_ [a_morale_!~quassel@2-227-115-13.ip186.fastwebnet.it] has joined #linuxcnc
[02:42:09] <ssi> I'm investigating whether I can actually put the chain in between the gantry rails
[02:42:17] <ssi> it might require some significant rework
[02:42:33] <CaptHindsight> how about placing another slot or angle on the other side of the bearings
[02:42:56] <ssi> can't
[02:43:04] <ssi> the car fully encloses the gantry
[02:43:27] <CaptHindsight> yes, that why you could use a 2nd one
[02:43:54] <CaptHindsight> with space between for the bearings and carriage
[02:44:10] <ssi> possibly
[02:44:18] -!- a_morale has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]
[02:44:26] <CaptHindsight> the 2nd would be supported only at the ends
[02:44:36] <CaptHindsight> it would just give the chain support
[02:44:48] <ssi> yeah... looking at how much room I have on the endplates to do that
[02:45:07] <CaptHindsight> maybe use 1/8" angle with 1.5" flats
[02:45:47] <CaptHindsight> what's the span ~4 feet?
[02:47:07] -!- skorasaurus has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[02:54:43] <ssi> 57-3/4" between gantry plates
[02:54:49] <ssi> about to go try to find some angle
[02:54:54] <ssi> I think I've secured a good mounting spot for it
[02:54:56] <CaptHindsight> bbl
[02:56:43] <jdh> if I knew how to use solidworks, I would have noticed my part fit-up mistake before cutting.

[03:16:10] <ssi> CaptHindsight: got it, thanks
[03:16:12] <ssi> that's working out well
[03:19:11] <ssi> still rises a bit in the near position:
[03:19:13] <ssi> https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bs4E7y6IIAAkBsu.jpg:large
[03:19:21] <ssi> but it lays down nicely in the far position and clears that left upper rail

[05:28:10] <q_p> wow..!!
[05:28:22] <XXCoder> I do want to build some cnc that large someday :D
[05:32:35] -!- automata [automata!~Amit@114.143.56.30] has joined #linuxcnc
[05:38:26] <ssi> I'm probably at about $3000 so far
[05:38:34] <XXCoder> thats not too bad
[05:38:38] <XXCoder> whats major cost?
[05:38:54] <ssi> mostly extrusion, hardware, and lexan right now tbh :P
[05:39:03] <XXCoder> lol ok
[05:39:08] <ssi> $750 or so for motors, psu, drives, mesa gear
[05:39:14] <ssi> $600 for laser gear

[05:41:41] <XXCoder> laser cutter right?>
[05:41:44] <ssi> yeah
[05:42:05] <XXCoder> man pretty tempted to "hire" you for some cnc work :P but nah no money lol
[05:42:07] -!- gonzo__ has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
[05:42:09] <ssi> haha
[05:42:17] <ssi> wait and see if I get the damn thing working first ;)
[05:42:24] <XXCoder> nema 32?
[05:42:28] <ssi> 17
[05:42:46] <XXCoder> HUH
[05:42:55] <XXCoder> I use bigger motors nema23
[05:43:06] <ssi> me too, but not for this
[05:43:08] <XXCoder> but then laser dont need all that much power eh
[05:43:18] <ssi> nope
[05:43:23] <ssi> if it'll jog fast enough, it's enough power
[05:43:32] <ssi> and these 68oz motors at 48V should be just fine
[05:44:16] <XXCoder> nice
[05:45:07] <ssi> tired :/
[05:45:29] <XXCoder> because of late or lots issues>?
[05:45:40] <ssi> mostly because it's late
[05:45:47] <ssi> I want to get more wiring done
[05:45:49] <ssi> but I don't
[05:45:49] <ssi> :)
[05:45:54] <XXCoder> lol ok
[05:46:17] <XXCoder> I wish theres more local supply of exrusions
[05:46:23] <XXCoder> seattle is still quite far
[05:46:31] <ssi> I drive to mcmaster and pick it up
[05:46:42] <ssi> mostly because I'm impatient... they'd ship it, and everything is next day
[05:47:37] <XXCoder> lol ok

[05:55:12] <CaptHindsight> ssi: over time it will become more flexible and you can also add ramp to the left upper rail to push the chain down if that doesn't violate the minimum bend radius of whats in the chain
[05:58:57] -!- grummund [grummund!~user@unaffiliated/grummund] has joined #linuxcnc
[06:02:24] <ssi> CaptHindsight: it's not the left side that's the problem it turns out, it's the back
[06:02:53] <ssi> the opening for the lid is the size of the bed, but the gantry actually runs back behind that, and when the head is on the right side and jogs to the rear, the chain hits the top
[06:03:07] <ssi> but I think it will break in
[06:03:14] <ssi> it's mostly the nylon tubing for the air assist causing the problem

[10:08:46] <JesusAlos> thinking in create our own basic CAM software
[10:09:15] <JesusAlos> and don't have experience in route algorithm

[10:13:41] <jthornton> sorry but I don't understand your question at all
[10:15:09] <archivist> JesusAlos, just computerise what a manual user would do
[10:20:21] <JesusAlos> i need create a software to do this king of route: http://www.softpedia.com/screenshots/DevFoam_11.png
[10:21:28] <JesusAlos> but need knowledge about the matematical models to implement
[10:21:53] <archivist> use trutype tracer, it is very close to that
[10:22:04] <archivist> truetype
[10:23:05] <JesusAlos> but need customised the code
[10:23:21] <JesusAlos> there are documentation?
[10:23:28] <archivist> http://timeguy.com/cradek/truetype
[10:23:44] <jthornton> what is a mathematical model?
[10:23:58] <jthornton> the letter shapes?
[10:25:29] <JesusAlos> mathematical models for create a new algorithm for create tool path or routes

[10:32:15] <SpeedEvil> It contains no 'naughty bits' But it does contain pictures of girls backs
[10:33:16] <jthornton> probably contains no content related to the current language barrier conversation so a terrible waste of bandwidth for me

[10:34:32] <archivist> SpeedEvil, when there is difficulty in the channel dont spam
[10:35:20] <JesusAlos> Sorry for my explains
[10:36:13] <SpeedEvil> It wasn't spam, it was related to the topic in what I thought was an amusing manner.
[10:36:21] <SpeedEvil> Apologies for any offence caused.
[10:37:45] <jthornton> JesusAlos, can you tell us what your trying to do in simple wording?
[10:37:46] <archivist> JesusAlos, I think is you read the trutype tracer source code you can get algorithms too
[10:37:53] <archivist> is/if
[10:38:27] <archivist> make cam for a foam cutter to cut outline text
[10:38:48] -!- dimas has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]
[10:40:14] <jthornton> I assume then scalable letter size?
[10:40:27] <JesusAlos> archivist: yes need CAM for foam cutter 2 axis machine
[10:40:33] <JesusAlos> letther and shapes
[10:40:52] <SpeedEvil> Or any random laser cutter even.
[10:41:41] <JesusAlos> http://postimg.org/image/pd4alyvsz/
[10:42:28] <archivist> once you understand trutype tracer you can use that for the letters as a subroutine and shapes will be simple to do
[10:43:59] <JesusAlos> archivist: I go to try trutype. But in the future, my idea is develope our own software
[10:44:37] <archivist> yes I know, remember writing vectors to screen is the same as g1 to the machine
[10:46:30] <archivist> so if you can draw it you can trace it, the only " hard" part is deciding where to move from inner to outer of a shape
[10:46:39] <JesusAlos> so seek documentation to programming routes
[10:46:58] <archivist> and to cross from path to path avoiding wanted work

[10:52:28] <IchGuckLive> hi all B)
[10:52:33] <IchGuckLive> JesusAlos:
[10:53:04] <JesusAlos> hi
[10:53:10] <IchGuckLive> you need a lookup list that makes you a start event at the letter on ascii code you become by coustem entry line
[10:53:25] <IchGuckLive> then from that you calculate your start points
[10:54:18] <IchGuckLive> thats how devfoam works
[10:54:50] <IchGuckLive> you can also make a funktion where you lookup the sketch loop where is topLeft
[10:55:33] <IchGuckLive> epand to half of linespace and make a virtuell startline on witch every char needs to start
[10:55:53] <IchGuckLive> as simple as it is we taked about the truetype trayer

[10:58:11] <IchGuckLive> CHARA Ascii-> lookupstartpoint table (TopLeft Mid Right ) get the TopLeft point of sketch generate start point towards entry and get it out then move to entry point move loop get to startpoint
[10:58:18] <IchGuckLive> process nextt char
[10:58:45] <jthornton> my guess is you won't find documentation on how to program other than studying other programs like TTT
[10:58:53] <IchGuckLive> 2 if and one array
[10:59:34] <archivist> jthornton, in that series of books I mentioned (I have 4 out of the 5)
[10:59:57] <IchGuckLive> devfoam uses the same algorithem as truetype tracer or Awallins opencamlib its oly closed software for profile
[11:00:03] <JesusAlos> I was thinking that there are a mathematical functions, like the open voronoid project
[11:00:32] <IchGuckLive> TTT is better to interact as it processes the loops like you need it
[11:01:39] <archivist> must get of with my V carve addon for ttt
[11:01:42] <IchGuckLive> ord('a') is all you need
[11:01:45] <archivist> get on
[11:02:57] <IchGuckLive> to get the ascii and with a lookup as you fix by chars the startpoint Best not to go for a minloop search
[11:03:17] <archivist> JesusAlos, as you are path following you dont want volume clearing like open voronoi
[11:04:21] <IchGuckLive> im off bye till the evening needed to jumpo in as plamas heat is to high and waterchange every hour on 55Deg C Shop temp

[11:05:07] <JesusAlos> in my case mus be other
[11:05:19] <JesusAlos> but I think the best is study TTT
[11:05:34] <JesusAlos> as people here recommend
[11:05:55] <jthornton> anyone have a link to a decent twist drill feed per revolution chart?
[11:06:05] <archivist> simple follow the path, ttt wont have the best character to character move because it lifts
[11:06:37] <jthornton> JesusAlos, is this a hot wire foam cutter?
[11:06:52] <JesusAlos> yes, foam cutter

[13:43:33] <Tecan> ok i have thyristors hexfets and tip122's which ones are better to stack for heatbed on a reprap ?
[13:44:07] <Tecan> i have pwm working but a duty cycle of 20% seems to keep the hexfet cool but the heatbed hardly gets warm
[13:45:25] <Tecan> who knew dumping a load into a big resistor would be so confusing
[13:46:50] <pcw_home> Should be pretty simple 20% duty cycle is 20% power (assuming minimal losses in switch)
[13:47:11] -!- rob_h has quit [Ping timeout: 250 seconds]

[17:42:06] <archivist> you need yo measure the actual dir pin to make sure it is 0 or 5v ish

[17:43:05] <archivist> are you driving the right pin as well
[17:43:21] <seltecc> with halmeter?
[17:43:30] <archivist> is that pin configured as an output
[17:43:39] <seltecc> I check them twice....

[17:49:23] <archivist> not relevant to the current problem unless it does not rotate at all
[17:49:47] <seltecc> ok...
[17:58:28] <seltecc> yes, they both show identical signal, when y+ then 5 v wenn y- 0 v ...for ydir
[17:58:59] <archivist> so the stepper driver is faulty
[17:59:10] <seltecc> I compared it with x axis....
[17:59:26] <archivist> is the motor connected correctly to the driver
[18:00:35] * archivist would be using a scope on the opto on the driver to see what happened to the signal
[18:00:36] -!- FinboySlick has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[18:01:25] <archivist> did you remember to wire the other side of the y opto to +5 or ground
[18:01:39] <seltecc> whats odd is that the working (x) has only one led lit and working fine, and the y axis has both leds lit....
[18:01:59] <archivist> in fault mode?
[18:02:11] <archivist> check all wiring
[18:02:31] <seltecc> I have dualboot and checked with mach3 and there everything worked just fine...
[18:02:46] <archivist> longshine drivers self protect with bad wiring to the motors
[18:03:29] <archivist> then your descriptions do not match the problem
[18:04:02] <seltecc> so was it before i screwed up my config because of the dammed a and b axis that are new to my configuration....
[18:04:33] <Tecan> http://i.imgur.com/Sd84OBV.png
[18:04:50] <seltecc> its a matter of faulty hal and ini settings...

[18:07:39] <seltecc> cool, very important for me....
[18:07:55] <seltecc> yeah can I ask here again?
[18:09:12] <archivist> it is just a decade counter what does it have to do with the current problem
[18:09:41] <seltecc> "simple" I just want the LEDs stay lit when triggert with a momentary push button...?
[18:10:36] <archivist> not what a counter does
[18:11:20] <seltecc> so its not possible, is that what you mean?
[18:12:04] <archivist> insufficient information
[18:13:43] <seltecc> one pushbutton, a ic4017 and led that shall stay lit....what else?
[18:13:57] <archivist> wrong chip for that job
[18:14:07] <seltecc> suggestion?
[18:14:10] <archivist> it is a counter not a latch
[18:14:27] <archivist> flip flop
[18:15:23] <seltecc> the task is to lite up 1 push 4 leds and 2.push 8 leds and 3. all off.....
[18:16:52] <archivist> task.. school work?
[18:17:27] <seltecc> kind of
[18:18:05] <archivist> you need to learn how to decode as well
[18:19:24] <seltecc> decode what? the function of ICs ?
