[00:07:05] <SpeedEvil> andypugh: was this the 750kg lathe?
[00:10:45] <Frank__> hey guys i measured with the starret 98-8 spirit level the gantry flatness (1.3mts long) and i am quite dissapointed.. i measured both ends of the guide and i've got 1 and a half graduations each graduation means 0.005 in per foot
[00:11:05] <Frank__> someone has any advice for the guy who got robbed? haha
[00:12:09] <Jymmm> Frank__: Get a bigger gun, and keep it loaded this time?
[00:12:28] <Frank__> i think it means 0.03inch flatness
[00:12:43] <Frank__> or 0.8mm
[00:12:57] <Frank__> yeah, i should jymm

[00:34:44] <andypugh> SpeedEvil: Not all of it. Just the Variator
[00:40:17] <zeeshan> is there a website to buy snapon tools
[00:40:19] <zeeshan> at not list price
[00:41:28] <CaptHindsight> snapon down here is sold through the trucks only
[00:41:34] <zeeshan> same here
[00:41:39] <andypugh> SpeedEvil: Just checked, the Variator is listed as 75kg / 116lb. No wonder it felt a bit of a heave to lift it off the floor and walk across the workshop to the bench.
[00:42:21] <CaptHindsight> zeeshan: some are on their webstore
[00:43:27] <andypugh> https://store.snapon.com
[00:43:38] <zeeshan> :28] <zeeshan> at not list price
[00:43:41] <zeeshan> :P
[00:44:00] <CaptHindsight> I see them overpriced and used on ebay
[00:44:45] <andypugh> Why biy snap-on if you don’t want to pay Snap-on prices? Other manufacturers exist.
[00:45:36] <roycroft> some snap-on tools are ergonomically a lot more comfortable to use than any other brands i've used
[00:45:43] <roycroft> i have some snap-on
[00:45:45] <andypugh> I tend to go for Britool, Facom, King-Dick, Teng
[00:45:48] <roycroft> but i don't obsess over snap-on
[00:46:06] <roycroft> i have a mix of brands of tools, both hand and power
[00:46:23] <CaptHindsight> they all break and wear so I tend to buy with lifetime warr
[00:46:27] <roycroft> i have one blue point (snap-on) roll-about cart
[00:46:48] <roycroft> but most of my large tool storage carts are craftsman or homak
[00:46:52] <roycroft> snap-on are much more durable
[00:47:00] <roycroft> but i'm the only one who works in my shop
[00:47:04] <roycroft> and i don't beat things up
[00:47:20] <roycroft> craftsman tools still have a lifetime warranty
[00:47:33] <roycroft> almost all my socket and fixed wrenches are craftsman
[00:47:49] <CaptHindsight> though SK had lifetime it became near impossible to exchange a broken tool
[00:47:56] <roycroft> they perform well, the fixed wrenches are fully-polished, and they cost a fraction of what snap-on costs
[00:48:00] <andypugh> The last thing I treated myself with was:
http://www.amazon.com/Wera-05004034001-Zyklop-Ratchet-Switch/dp/B00IMF1B8K/ref=sr_1_29?ie=UTF8&qid=1452732434&sr=8-29&keywords=zyklop
[00:49:08] <CaptHindsight> I had difficulty finding a 3/8 torque wrench with a dial or digital readout
[00:49:43] <CaptHindsight> I use it to measure preload on bearings not just set torque
[00:50:49] <roycroft> i have a 3/8" craftsman torque wrench but it isn't a dial or digital readout
[00:50:52] <roycroft> it's one of the click types
[00:51:28] <roycroft> good for tightening to a particular torque spec, but useless for trying to measure torque
[00:51:29] <CaptHindsight> I picked up a Crafstman on ebay with a digital readout, ends up it's just for setting not reading torque
[00:51:40] <roycroft> oh
[00:51:46] <roycroft> so it's a click type with a fancy display
[00:51:59] <CaptHindsight> yeah, so a beam type or dial indicator is all I can find
[00:52:10] <zeeshan> http://www.ebay.com/itm/SNAP-ON-3-8-DRIVE-ATECH2FR100A-80-TOOTH-TECHANGLE-FLEX-LIKE-NEW-/231812699495?hash=item35f91d1567:g:PGwAAOSwJcZWhA0w&item=231812699495&vxp=mtr#shpCntId
[00:52:12] <zeeshan> looks nice
[00:52:14] <zeeshan> i think im gonna get it
[00:52:18] <CaptHindsight> it was even difficult to find a 3/8 beam type
[00:52:29] <zeeshan> CaptHindsight: i can send you like 10
[00:52:31] <zeeshan> i have too many
[00:52:35] <zeeshan> =]
[00:53:04] <CaptHindsight> heh, spent >$50 on the last one
[00:53:15] <CaptHindsight> only one place had it
[00:53:19] <zeeshan> considering this is going for 499 usd on snapon's website
[00:53:21] <zeeshan> mayube i should get this
[00:53:24] <zeeshan> cause its a good deal
[00:53:25] <zeeshan> half price
[00:53:36] <zeeshan> looks hardly used
[00:54:12] <CaptHindsight> http://www.ebay.com/itm/Craftsman-1-2-inch-Drive-Digi-Click-Digital-Torque-Wrench-25-250-ft-lbs-Tool-/151943955812 got this for $120 new in box
[00:54:30] <zeeshan> i look at it as
[00:54:35] <zeeshan> 250 for peace of mind
[00:54:41] <zeeshan> for a 8000$ engine
[00:54:45] <zeeshan> maybe i should buy it new
[00:57:12] <CaptHindsight> http://www.torqueleader.com/torque-measuring-tools/
[00:58:20] <CaptHindsight> http://www.torqueleader.com/torque-measuring-tools/digital-torque-wrench-torcotronic-with-angle/
[00:58:55] <zeeshan> really the beam type is most accurate
[00:59:04] <zeeshan> but youre subjected to reading error
[00:59:06] <zeeshan> thats about it
[00:59:14] <roycroft> if torque readings are that critical i would send even a brand new one in for calibration
[00:59:25] <zeeshan> from my understanding, these torque wrenches have a beam in them
[00:59:27] <zeeshan> w/ a strain gage
[00:59:53] <roycroft> and assuming that the used one can be calibrated, i think it would be just as accurate as a new one after calibration
[01:03:46] <zeeshan> man
[01:03:48] <zeeshan> now that im thinking about it
[01:03:52] <zeeshan> i really should get a dial torque wrench
[01:03:57] <zeeshan> no bs electronics to worry about
[01:04:06] <zeeshan> centuries of use
[01:04:06] <zeeshan> :P

[01:57:29] <cncnoob1979> hey! Im trying to wire my encoder on a bridgeport interact 1. Im wiring these through a 702b exe box to a 7i77. Im trying to figure out what my signals are in relation to the 7i77.
[01:59:38] <cncnoob1979> such as, my wires from the exe is: ua0 ua0/ , ua1 ua1/, ua2 ua2/ - I belive these to be the phases? and I have Uas/
[02:01:12] <cncnoob1979> the 7i77 have pinouts listed as QA0 QA0/, QB0 QB0/, IDX IDX/
[02:02:00] <cncnoob1979> im thinking to go from numerical order, but i dont understand what the idx is for?
[02:02:19] <FloppyDisk> Not familiear w/ the 702b, but the 7i77 is channel A, B, and INDEX (or sometimes Z channel).
[02:02:42] <FloppyDisk> idx is index channel. Usually once per rev, for rotary encoders
[02:03:07] <cncnoob1979> ok, that would be the va0
[02:03:20] <FloppyDisk> Also, the 7i77 has the ability to be single ended or differential (default on 7i77).
[02:03:23] <cncnoob1979> correction Ua0 for the index
[02:03:40] <cncnoob1979> mine are the ero 115 encoders
[02:03:58] <FloppyDisk> I would bet the ua0 ua0/ is differential, but something to check.
[02:03:58] <cncnoob1979> differential I do belive mine are
[02:04:26] <FloppyDisk> If you have Ua0 for index, then the other two can be the A and B channels.
[02:04:32] <cncnoob1979> I cant find any information for these encoders. I have been close but nothing on the net.
[02:04:54] <FloppyDisk> Never heard of a 702b until now...
[02:05:23] <FloppyDisk> I think you could hook them up and then look at halscope and see if you can see the pulses by turning the motors manually.
[02:05:35] <cncnoob1979> it does 25 fold, its an oldie. might not even work. I also have some 610C, but the documentaion is the same pinouts
[02:05:39] <FloppyDisk> Here's sort of a suggestion:
https://forum.linuxcnc.org/forum/10-advanced-configuration/29579-new-quadrature-encoder-index-questions
[02:05:51] <FloppyDisk> for the hal scope.
[02:06:40] <cncnoob1979> i looked up an idp 101 board for help in trying to understand the output, thatis where I got the Ua0 from for the index. So im not sure :)
[02:07:05] <FloppyDisk> Yeah, that can be problem...
[02:07:57] <cncnoob1979> I shouldnt be able to fry anything right? The 702B provides the power to the encoders and they are factory wired. Im using cat5 for testing from the exe to the 7i77
[02:08:13] <FloppyDisk> I've read about some 'solid' electronics guys reverse engr. the signals, which for me gets tricky w/ +5V and 0Vdc...
[02:08:43] <FloppyDisk> I think you have the signals, it's a matter of what level they output (5vdc??) and where that comes from.

[02:09:26] <archivist> making sure you have the right wires for power and 0v is the most important
[02:09:43] <malcom2073> ssi: ^^^
[02:09:57] <cncnoob1979> ok, ill try to hook it up and power it up. Ill check back in here in a moment.
[02:10:02] <FloppyDisk> Yeah, and how does that 702b box work w/ that? different kind of setup...
[02:10:26] <malcom2073> CaptHindsight: Those were going for $700 not long ago, I guess he was selling out too fast, and decided to raise the price heh
[02:11:01] <CaptHindsight> they go on sale every now and then

[04:17:16] <zeeshan> theres no TP
[04:17:19] <zeeshan> first of all!
[04:17:29] <zeeshan> theres no expansion capability
[04:17:54] <zeeshan> linuxcnc-features pretty much does the same thing as dialog11 conversational
[04:18:06] <zeeshan> though the dialog11 conversational is a bit more intuitive
[04:18:18] <zeeshan> i do like the screen that shows all the g-codes and m-codes
[04:18:24] <zeeshan> basically one click quick reference screen
[04:18:31] <zeeshan> rather than opening a massive webpage :P

[04:25:30] <zeeshan> no not expansion like that
[04:25:39] <zeeshan> lets say i want to add a seperate g-code for mist coolant
[04:25:40] <zeeshan> i cant
[04:30:21] <bobo_> have you ever discussed the dialog with Ross over on PM . pretty sure he would be interested

[04:45:03] <anomynous> anyone been using gibbscam? When using volymill, is it possible to define "dangerous" milling directions which should be taken at slower feed when using volumill? I have a flimsy setup of 30x80 stock which needs to be milled 60mm in depth and it is being gripped by 5mm in jaws, and I'm afraid it may come off when going in y-direction
[04:45:45] <anomynous> it is now done conventionally by profile milling in depth cuts, but thats just... really slow :D

[05:04:17] <anomynous> im sure that would be enough to winch most things you might want in your garage ;D
[05:07:52] <bobo_> zeeshan 1/2" dia about 4 to 6" long , non captive type - just threaded full length
[05:08:22] <zeeshan> ah
[05:08:24] <zeeshan> why not captive
[05:09:00] <bobo_> wanted to be able to move them around
[05:09:17] <anomynous> im sure thats enough for winching most things you dont want in your garage :D
[05:09:49] <zeeshan> i just need to winch in cars :P
[05:11:58] <anomynous> i thought it would be weird if no one was trying to invent a refuellable battery, so i searched youtube ;D

[05:14:23] <bobo_> I used a harbor F winch 12volt DC -3000 lbs label with a sheve block to pull the 3 maho mills (1 at a time ) off trailer and into 2 car garage
[05:16:11] <bobo_> had a 150amp battery charger and 12 volt battery as power for the winch

[05:39:23] <zeeshan> but its missing some
[05:39:27] <aventtini6> do you have the mecanical schematic of the spindle head
[05:39:32] <zeeshan> yes
[05:39:40] <zeeshan> that is in the spare parts manual
[05:39:41] <aventtini6> i need to change the bearings
[05:39:46] <zeeshan> for the fp50cc?
[05:39:54] <zeeshan> or mikron
[05:39:57] <aventtini6> no for mikron
[05:40:01] <zeeshan> yes i have
[05:40:09] <zeeshan> i think
[05:40:20] <aventtini6> can you give me the spindle bearing code
[05:40:34] <zeeshan> shit its the maho
[05:40:36] <zeeshan> not th e mikron
[05:40:37] <zeeshan> :{
[05:40:45] <zeeshan> for mikron i got drawbar only
[05:40:55] <zeeshan> and the part number for the spindle
[05:41:01] <zeeshan> Nr. 153.03.52.01/0
[05:41:04] <zeeshan> is the spindle part #
[05:41:11] <aventtini6> shit
[05:41:37] <aventtini6> i need to change the bearings i suspect the bearings are dead

[05:41:58] <zeeshan> which spindle
[05:41:59] <aventtini6> i dont know how complicated can be
[05:41:59] <zeeshan> vertical or hor
[05:42:01] <zeeshan> izontal
[05:42:06] <zeeshan> if its vertical
[05:42:10] <zeeshan> at least you can work on your bench :)
[05:42:13] <aventtini6> the verical
[05:42:18] <zeeshan> i dont think it's too bad
[05:42:58] <aventtini6> i know there is a procedure to alin the bearnings to get 5 microns max
[05:43:21] <zeeshan> yea by shimming them ithink
[05:43:23] <zeeshan> like for a transmission

[05:45:23] <zeeshan> hehe
[05:45:33] <zeeshan> need to keep a spare mesa
[05:45:57] <aventtini6> zee change the capacitors on the SPM module on the deckel
[05:46:09] <aventtini6> if it stays more the 2 months
[05:46:24] <aventtini6> and it has more the 45000h

[05:55:29] <aventtini6> :)
[05:55:31] <zeeshan> haha
[05:56:32] <aventtini6> did you start the retrofit
[05:56:33] <aventtini6> ?
[05:56:34] <zeeshan> no
[05:56:38] <zeeshan> he's chickening out
[05:56:42] <zeeshan> wants to run the machine factory
[05:56:45] <zeeshan> i actually suggested it to him
[05:56:48] <zeeshan> to isolate any problems it has
[05:56:55] <zeeshan> cause retrofit will be a headache
[05:56:58] <zeeshan> he'll eventually retrofit
[05:57:15] <aventtini6> you have in plan to make the toolchanger?
[05:57:22] <zeeshan> yea for sure
[05:57:25] <zeeshan> machine is useless without the tc
[05:57:37] <zeeshan> i also want to make the automatic
[05:57:42] <zeeshan> hroziontal to vertical head transition working
[05:57:45] <zeeshan> theres some logic for that too
[05:57:58] <aventtini6> i never done a TC
[05:58:13] <zeeshan> the spindle motor is a servo
[05:58:15] <zeeshan> so its pretty easy
[05:58:16] <aventtini6> its a mechanical carusel
[05:58:29] <aventtini6> yes not complicated
[05:58:36] <aventtini6> exept tool changer
[05:58:40] <zeeshan> the tc has like
[05:58:42] <zeeshan> 23902380923108230823 solenoids
[05:58:44] <zeeshan> and 239082130921308923 switches
[05:58:48] <zeeshan> :D
[05:59:00] <zeeshan> i definitely want to see it working w/ the old control first
[05:59:04] <zeeshan> before retrofit
[05:59:07] <zeeshan> to see the order
[05:59:18] <zeeshan> like there is a pneumatic door that opens too
[05:59:25] <zeeshan> so much stuff has to be right
[05:59:27] <zeeshan> to stop it from crashing :P
[05:59:38] <zeeshan> it needs to know whether it's in horizontal or vertical mode
[05:59:44] <aventtini6> yes but the only thing you nead is the read 1 encoder that is on it ant the rest is simple relays
[05:59:58] <bobo_> isn't the TC hyd powered ?
[06:00:04] <zeeshan> bobo the clamping unit is
[06:00:11] <zeeshan> but the door is pneumatic
[06:00:18] <zeeshan> and the indexing is servo based
[06:00:31] <aventtini6> yes and and is a mechanical indexing plus a encoder
[06:00:36] <zeeshan> ther are hydraulic grippers
[06:00:40] <aventtini6> mikron has the same
[06:00:46] <aventtini6> yes
[06:01:01] <aventtini6> all off the TC is hidraulic
[06:01:09] <aventtini6> exept the position read out
[06:01:34] <aventtini6> some of them has the door also in hidraulic

[06:04:47] <aventtini6> for all jobs
[06:04:49] <bobo_> maho --TC is all Hyd ,even door . only carousel is elect motor ,and tool gripers are mechanical
[06:05:27] <aventtini6> carusel is hidraulic indexer
[06:06:34] <aventtini6> i dont think it can be bobo because its precision
[06:06:52] <aventtini6> it must be a DC motor whit taco
[06:07:14] <aventtini6> so is not that fast as a hidraulic index

[11:56:09] <archivist_herron> that was in my watch list
[11:56:16] <zeeshan> haha archivist
[11:56:30] <zeeshan> i think i got it for an okay price
[11:56:36] <zeeshan> considering brand new they are 1600 bux
[11:56:51] <zeeshan> and everywhere else on ebay theyre like 450 usd
[11:57:33] <XXCoder> levelk machine?
[11:57:46] <Tom_itx> but you could get a level at the hardware store..

[12:02:14] <zeeshan> looks same to me :P
[12:02:29] <zeeshan> im liking that level in the back
[12:03:09] <archivist_herron> I have two of those now
[12:03:17] <zeeshan> why!
[12:03:50] <archivist_herron> I remembered a few might want one and the price was right

[12:10:04] <XXCoder> archivist_herron: its quite ungoogleable
[12:10:18] <zeeshan> someone leveling a tormach lathe with a 800$ starrett level
[12:10:23] <zeeshan> tormach mill i mean
[12:10:25] <zeeshan> wow
[12:10:37] <zeeshan> that mill will never level!
[12:10:53] <XXCoder> linky
[12:11:00] <archivist_herron> someone in hefe metiones a 160$ starrett, .005" per ft wtf

[12:11:05] <archivist_herron> here
[12:11:09] <zeeshan> no
[12:11:15] <zeeshan> their best one is 0.0005/12"
[12:11:21] <XXCoder> ahh
[12:11:24] <XXCoder> level
[12:11:29] <archivist_herron> the 8" is only .005
[12:11:31] <XXCoder> only much more fancy
[12:11:52] <zeeshan> archivist: the tb5-2 says 0.0005"/10"
[12:12:09] <zeeshan> i wish people would rate levels by degrees
[12:12:12] <zeeshan> not by their stupid slope
[12:12:24] <archivist_herron> I am guessing they beat starretts :)
[12:12:47] <archivist_herron> gnats cock degrees are silly too
[12:13:38] <zeeshan> well
[12:13:40] <zeeshan> degree m s
[12:13:41] <zeeshan> is what i mean

[12:16:20] <zeeshan> :)
[12:16:29] <XXCoder> I just realized, why not use mil degrees for machines? more accurate I guess

[12:21:43] <archivist_herron> I would use the clinometer I have
[12:22:26] <archivist_herron> just rig up something on the saddle and move it end to end
[12:23:44] <zeeshan> ill prolly put a test bar in it
[12:24:06] <zeeshan> actually then i gotta get that level
[12:24:07] <zeeshan> lol
[12:24:32] <zeeshan> maybe i can chuck a 246 block

[12:31:31] <XXCoder> heh for a sec I tought WTF when I sw 25-50-75 block. but its in mm.
[12:31:45] <archivist_herron> you need a reasonable surface to work on
[12:31:48] <XXCoder> if it was inches it'd be a monster precision block.
[12:32:03] <XXCoder> yeah could use very flat something like 123
[12:32:12] <XXCoder> assuming no Surface
[12:32:38] <archivist_herron> needs to be bigger than the level, stiff and be on a solid floor
[12:32:51] <XXCoder> makes sense

[12:34:18] <XXCoder> or is it that precise

[15:16:15] <Frank__> archivist! bothering you again :D, i measured my gantry flatness with the 0.005 per foot spirit level and i moves 1 and a half grades between end to end (1.3mts) which is pretty bad, does that mean that it bows 0.03 in? (0.005 x 1.5 * 3( 3 foot gantry lenght))
[15:17:00] <bobo_> ssi: wondering what's doing with the servo driver project. heard someone in Tn is 1/3 winner of lotto, could it be PetefromTn ?
[15:17:00] <Sync> MrSunshine: just buy some new ones
[15:17:14] <MrSunshine> Sync: and wait 2 weeks for them to come ?
[15:17:15] <ssi> bobo_: it's not pete, i'd have heard about it by now if it was :P
[15:17:16] <malcom2073> bobo_: If it is, he owes me a servo drive system :P
[15:17:19] <Sync> they usually are too cheap not to do it

[15:17:31] <ssi> bobo_: ask Sync about the drive, I have been slacking for awhile but he's up on it :)

[15:21:25] <Frank__> how so arch? the gantry is formed by 2 welded 4x4'' 1/4'' steel tube, its not going to move, i am thinking 4 different grades of shims to grade it between each hole?

[15:22:32] <MrSunshine> btw, what type of greace to use in ballnuts ?

[15:44:11] <maxcnc> Hi ;-)
[15:44:26] <archivist> Frank__, you can add webs to pull stuff straight, but without a pictures no one can say
[15:47:17] <maxcnc> is frank in the finishing his wood chipper
[15:48:32] <Sync> archivist: ohh he also has a nice polygon :3
[15:49:34] <maxcnc> Frank__: are you up and running today
[15:49:47] <maxcnc> so what does the dial say
[15:50:20] <Frank__> im kind of frustrated righ now
[15:50:28] <maxcnc> not so good
[15:50:33] <Frank__> i was telling archivist
[15:50:45] <archivist> Sync, silly price though !
[15:50:50] <Frank__> i have in the gantry i think 0.03 bow at 4 feet gantry
[15:50:55] -!- mozmck has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[15:51:05] <Frank__> in the "machined" guides
[15:51:20] <Sync> well it is okay, the things are incredibly expensive new
[15:51:28] <maxcnc> inch or mm
[15:51:36] <maxcnc> for wood is ok
[15:52:00] <archivist> Sync, I didnt pay that for my little one :)
[15:52:11] <Frank__> inch
[15:52:22] <maxcnc> Frank__: 4feet mashine size or only the mesure way
[15:52:28] <Frank__> in mm i think its 0.8
[15:52:34] <Frank__> thats the gantry span
[15:52:56] <Sync> I did not pay that much for min either, but it is reasonable
[15:53:14] <Frank__> im not concerned on precision but on linear guides durabilty and not binding
[15:53:20] -!- jduhls has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]
[15:53:30] <maxcnc> so grap a dial FIX it on the YZ hold on X frame at ISO G53 Zero
[15:53:38] <maxcnc> and move along X
[15:53:58] <maxcnc> see if you got frame liniar guide ofsets
[15:54:22] -!- FloppyDisk [FloppyDisk!~M4500@c-50-152-222-132.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #linuxcnc
[15:54:24] <maxcnc> correct first at G53 X zero longness
[15:54:34] <maxcnc> then mesure the other guide in X
[15:54:59] <maxcnc> then y is littel triggy
[15:55:04] <archivist> g codes are not relevant at this stage of a build
[15:55:20] <maxcnc> only to show the point to be Zero
[15:55:36] <maxcnc> ISO coordinate systems count at buildup
[15:55:42] <archivist> this is a mechanical issue
[15:56:17] <maxcnc> therfor he needs to meshure the point where it fails from one Maschine point
[15:56:41] <maxcnc> so G53 is the point of interest here
[15:56:52] <Frank__> u telling me max?
[15:56:57] <Frank__> i dont have electronics working
[15:56:58] <archivist> its not built thete is no gcode
[15:56:59] <maxcnc> yes
[15:57:03] <Frank__> haha
[15:57:06] <Frank__> im building
[15:57:15] <Frank__> machine came from machining a couple days ago
[15:57:20] <Frank__> i am cleaning and paiting
[15:57:24] <Frank__> then holes... T_T
[15:57:25] <maxcnc> archivist the point not the control
[15:57:41] <Frank__> they didnt even drilled the holes
[15:57:47] <maxcnc> the point ia always there even if non electronics is setup
[15:57:54] <archivist> he is measuring the straightness on one axis
[15:58:09] <maxcnc> thats what im telling him to do
[15:58:22] <maxcnc> where to start and from there
[15:58:35] <maxcnc> by hand moving the rails
[15:58:44] <Frank__> i was thinking on shiming with 4 grades of thickenss
[15:58:48] <Frank__> to get to 0.8mm
[15:59:50] <maxcnc> Frank__: your frame is 4x4 inch tube rectangle
[15:59:52] <archivist> Frank__, before you go too far, see how much it bends under your proposed Z weight and keep that in mind when you add shims
[16:00:05] <Frank__> yes 2 of them welded together
[16:00:45] <Frank__> but the shims would be 90 from the z axis weight deflection
[16:00:56] <Frank__> ill upload a pic
[16:01:08] <maxcnc> ok i need to read the logs cause im talking on X movement and you on z i guess
[16:01:39] <irontree9> I was reading about how moglice (fancy epoxy) is used to replicate known flat surfaces, but I guess shims would be easier to work with.
[16:02:04] <archivist> fills gaps
[16:03:16] <Frank__> no, im talking that i send the gantry of the rotuer to get machined, but i measured with the spirit level that it has a bow in the middle of aprox 0.8mm and i dont know what to do to it to keep it flat enough for the linear guide not to bind
[16:03:29] <ssi> Nick001: I don't think so
[16:03:40] <Frank__> besides when i compare the top and bottom guides they arent in the same angle
[16:03:49] <archivist> Frank__, for a real kludge, if possible, you can run beads of weld on the rear to pull something straight
[16:04:02] <Frank__> on is half a grade (0.0005) x feet from the other
[16:04:23] <Sync> irontree9: dhw is the better choice for aligning machines
[16:04:28] <Frank__> i tryed that before i sent everytihng to stress relief but it would do nothing
[16:04:33] <Frank__> even on 3.2 mm welds
[16:04:57] <Frank__> when welding the machining tabs or flat bars the hole thing bowed 1.5mm in the middle
[16:05:04] <Frank__> and i couldnt straighten it that way
[16:05:14] <Nick001> <ssi> Could you PM me a copy or post them
[16:05:45] <ssi> yeah, if I ever get that machine back up again :)
[16:05:58] <ssi> I need to get the configs into git, which is where I've got some of my newer machines' configs
[16:06:08] <maxcnc> Frank__: so its the Y axis that troubles as you weldet this 4x4
[16:06:10] <archivist> Frank__, or just weld a web along the gantry to pull it
[16:06:18] <Frank__> here goes a pic of the gantry from the side to understand a little better
[16:06:18] <Frank__> http://imgur.com/Mkmt6O9
[16:06:54] <maxcnc> that does not matter ad all you mount your rails to the front
[16:07:07] -!- ivansanchez has quit []
[16:07:13] <Frank__> yes i think i could do that, but it would be a real hassle now that everyhting is "machined" and stress relived
[16:07:17] <maxcnc> and straiten them to the part table
[16:07:20] <archivist> those strips have bowed it hollow?
[16:07:42] <maxcnc> move on building
[16:07:54] <Frank__> the 9.5mm flat bars to get machined bowed 2x 4x4'' 1/4'' steel tubes
[16:08:18] <Frank__> i kind of helped with it, i didnt waited for it to cool down before laying more welds
[16:08:22] <maxcnc> noone will see .8mm in the holes from the rails
[16:08:33] -!- mk0 [mk0!~mk0@37.17.17.156] has joined #linuxcnc
[16:08:41] <Nick001> <ssi> Just need the resolver connections. There's a 1X and 2X and I think those the voltage leads.
[16:09:07] <ssi> it's been a long time
[16:09:12] <Frank__> i dont get your idea max
[16:09:13] <archivist> maxcnc, do you not realise cuts will be curved unless he fixes it
[16:09:15] <ssi> are you using a 7i49?
[16:09:35] <maxcnc> archivist there are no rails only the fraim
[16:09:45] <Frank__> i think he believes that the holes are 0.8 mm deviated maybe?
[16:09:57] <maxcnc> the frame is not responsabel for the railalinment
[16:09:57] <archivist> the rails will bend to the frame form
[16:10:01] <Nick001> using 3 cards - not sure which ones - not at the shop right now
[16:10:42] <Frank__> thats why i was thinking on shimming
[16:10:56] <archivist> shimming will be reasonable
[16:11:00] <ssi> 3 cards sounds like pico resolver converters
[16:11:06] <ssi> which I believe is what you had before
[16:11:12] <Frank__> with steel spring sheet?
[16:11:12] <maxcnc> archivist if you tight them to it but usilay i go for a ofset at 2mm
[16:11:14] <Nick001> Mesa says the resolver card is the special one he had to make up for the Hardinge resolvers
[16:11:17] <Frank__> between every hole
[16:11:46] <archivist> where needed :)
[16:11:47] <Frank__> 2mm bow of the linear guide?
[16:11:54] <ssi> yes, that's what I have
[16:11:58] <ssi> 7i49HV I think
[16:11:59] <Nick001> The Pico cards are on the first Hardinge and they're still working
[16:12:12] <Nick001> Right
[16:13:05] <maxcnc> archivist its littel more work but you always can do somthing if the temp differences bow your frame
[16:13:18] <ssi> I don't recall anything unusual in the wiring
[16:14:21] <Nick001> The second Hardinge is apart and the cable ends are to terminal strips. Just have to start connecting things together - like limit switches and home switches
[16:14:28] <maxcnc> archivist ive seen people building mashines with double sscrews to get strait
[16:14:38] <ssi> are you using the stock motors and drives?
[16:15:00] <Nick001> Just not clear on the resolver connections
[16:15:19] <ssi> well there should be a drive +/-, sin +/-, and cos +/-
[16:15:51] <Nick001> same motors and AMC drives- Getting rid of the GE axis drivers
[16:16:02] <ssi> yeah I've thought about doing the same
[16:17:19] <Nick001> Bigest thing to get rid of is the tachs - The X tach is forever loading up with oil and has to be cleaned
[16:17:40] -!- putnik has quit [Changing host]
[16:17:43] <ssi> are you planning on running in torque mode on the amc drives+
[16:19:51] <Nick001> something like that - I'm not up on the terms The +/- relates to the 1X and 2X but which is which?
[16:20:08] <ssi> no, +/- is because they're differential signals
[16:20:31] <ssi> http://www.amci.com/tutorials/images/resolver-schematic.gif
[16:20:52] <ssi> 1x/2x must refer to resolver impedance ratio :D
[16:24:13] <Nick001> then where are they hooked up?
[16:25:14] <Frank__> sry max double screws?? hows that
[16:25:36] <maxcnc> whear stuff i will send a picture
[16:25:51] <Nick001> be back in 20 min - chores and go to shop
[16:35:39] <Frank__> thanks fot the help max
[16:36:04] <Frank__> im kind of doing thinkg in the meanwhile thats why i take a while to answer but thank you!

[16:41:36] <maxcnc> the screws are in line ;._)
[16:41:45] <maxcnc> but you get the point
[16:42:10] <maxcnc> between 2 fix screws there is a adyust one
[16:42:20] <maxcnc> up and down
[16:42:49] <maxcnc> yust make a tread in the rail frame
[16:43:31] <maxcnc> i use 2mm max on this crazie stuff
[16:43:41] <Frank__> thats a flat bar steel?
[16:43:52] <maxcnc> its the rail itself

[16:44:13] <maxcnc> you only need to get the point
[16:44:23] <maxcnc> but i can do it with the rail if you like
[16:44:33] <maxcnc> yust puted some stuff together
[16:45:08] <maxcnc> the holes in the rails are most 200mm in between
[16:45:23] <maxcnc> so you can adyust every 200mm
[16:45:40] <Frank__> i have a profile rail
[16:45:43] <Frank__> hiwin linear guide
[16:46:24] <maxcnc> oh then you need to underput 1mm stripes harden steel
[16:46:37] <maxcnc> you can get thim in 0.1mm steps
[16:46:51] <maxcnc> and 0.1 to0.01
[16:47:01] <maxcnc> in 0.01 steps
[16:47:20] <maxcnc> so you are rely dome but its not the best
[16:47:30] <maxcnc> realy done ;-)
[16:47:51] <maxcnc> i need to go off i think long workingday started at 5:30 Mesz
[16:48:25] <maxcnc> OR go for a plain plate as you guessed it
[16:49:57] <maxcnc> the plasma got a THC so it doesen matter at all here
[16:51:09] <Frank__> exactly
[16:51:35] <Frank__> its a shame they made an awfull work at the machining
[16:51:38] <Frank__> with the machining
[16:51:39] <Frank__> sry
[16:51:43] <maxcnc> what is your main work does .8mm raly matter in wood
[16:52:00] <Frank__> i dont think so,
[16:52:09] <Frank__> the thing is the durability of the linear guides
[16:52:15] <Frank__> they run on tight tolerances
[16:52:37] <maxcnc> you can adjust it even if you are done
[16:52:42] <maxcnc> go building it
[16:52:53] <maxcnc> see how it comes out
[16:53:22] <maxcnc> always first part milling bevor mesuring the mashine makes things smoother
[16:54:02] <Frank__> yes..
[16:54:09] <Frank__> now the drilling
[16:54:31] <Frank__> i think i should put the guide on the machined flat surface and mark it then make the holes

[20:05:29] <anomynous> Nick001-shop: im not sure what your problem is or what you are talking about, but not having permissions makes me think you want to do as a regular user something you need to be a root (super user or administrator) for. For how file permissions work see
http://www.perlfect.com/articles/chmod.shtml or something. To start a file broser as root open up a terminal and write "sudo browser_name" :D I dont kn
[20:05:35] <anomynous> ow what the browser name is. Try first letters and tab. SOmeone else can help more. If this was of any help at all ;D
[20:07:59] <Nick001-shop> I know sudo in terminal - How do I get control fo that folder. I'm trying to clone the older drive to a ssd and make it bootale.
[20:08:19] <Nick001-shop> bootable
[20:09:49] <CaptHindsight> since this is new to you be careful and be sure to have a backup of the files in case you make a mistake
[20:10:22] <CaptHindsight> it's easy to loose what you currently have
[20:14:25] <anomynous> Nick001-shop: i dont know really what im saying now, but maybe it helps you know what you might be looking for. To make a disk bios-bootable you need a primary parition flagged as bootable, and put first stage bootloader onto MBR of that disk (very fist sector). This loads second stage loader on bootable primary partition (can be flagged in fdisk or other paritioning tool). So you need to make grub ins
[20:14:31] <anomynous> tall that first stage loader and know where the second stage loader is, i think? :) And which kernel to boot, which is what second stage loader loads.
[20:14:35] <anomynous> dunno about efi
[20:14:45] <Nick001-shop> Should I do a DD to the ssd ? I have a backup in the media folder but I can't move it to a USB stick

[20:23:47] micges_ is now known as micges
[20:24:30] <anomynous> i cant give you simple instructions. chroot is a command line command to make the shell think some directory you have is a root directory -- Implied is you mount ssd and copy entire system there and chroot there to pretend thats where the system runs and make it bootable by installing grub to the mbr.
[20:24:45] <anomynous> but someone else can probably help better
[20:25:00] <anomynous> dd is probably easy way

[20:37:11] <Connor> and resize in one shot.

[20:38:10] <anomynous> ok

[21:23:51] <Magnifikus> only problem left is, to interface the fpga without a pi
[21:24:23] <CaptHindsight> interface what to the fpga ?
[21:24:32] <Magnifikus> linuxcnc
[21:24:38] <Magnifikus> from a normal pc
[21:24:57] <CaptHindsight> so you want to reinvent a Mesa fpga card
[21:25:01] <CaptHindsight> wonderful
[21:25:42] <CaptHindsight> <--- goes back to sorting sock drawer
[21:25:48] <Magnifikus> :P
[21:26:01] <ssi> yep pretty much
[21:26:06] <ssi> he sortof already has
[21:26:50] <CaptHindsight> getting hm2+eth on ARM might actually be useful
[21:27:13] <ssi> given an arm that's fast enough to run axis well
[21:27:21] <ssi> has anyone tried the edison?
[21:27:23] <CaptHindsight> imx6
[21:27:25] <Magnifikus> i got axis running
[21:27:27] <ssi> (not arm but curious)
[21:28:32] <Magnifikus> https://www.dropbox.com/sc/zsgiuxos8imprs7/AABqokdlnKx_bhRJY8oa_JYea thats axis on pi2 :P
[21:29:18] <ssi> 16:14 < Magnifikus> but the pi2 is still abit "slow"
[21:29:18] <ssi> 16:14 < Magnifikus> >100k lines of g code takes some minutes to load
[21:29:46] <Magnifikus> yeah i say its the preview
[21:29:53] <Magnifikus> but milling wise its running cool
[21:30:16] <ssi> right... preview is opengl, and that seems to be the weak link on most of the small embedded arm systems
[21:30:19] <PetefromTn_> that looks like a pretty nice setup
[21:31:03] <Magnifikus> guess kill the preview and continue

[21:38:20] <CaptHindsight> the down side is that they also tend to be closer to $100 than to $30

[21:51:51] <FloppyDisk> You think they'd give you money to take it...
[21:53:58] <PetefromTn_> its sad but there are lots of machines sitting outside neglected like that which would probably make for a great retrofit. Does not make any sense to me why people would fork truck a decent machine outside and let it sit for years rotting away...
[21:54:10] <CaptHindsight> yup
[21:54:41] <CaptHindsight> $25 in plastic could save it
[21:55:02] <PetefromTn_> it would at least help it last a bit longer right

[22:01:56] <CaptHindsight> it's a used dealer
[22:02:13] <CaptHindsight> depends on how bad the turret is

[23:24:46] <andypugh> (Wondering if anyone will actually be disappointed when they click the link)
[23:24:56] <JT-Shop> lol
[23:25:18] <cradek> I didn't expect six
[23:25:23] * PetefromTn_ wonders if anyone is really dumb enough to actually click the link ;)
[23:25:40] <andypugh> I managed to un-stick the variator by manually poking the motor fan. But then found that there was almost no oil in it.
[23:25:40] <cradek> is that your magic speed changer thing?
[23:25:47] <andypugh> Yes
[23:26:00] <cradek> is it ok?
[23:26:13] <andypugh> It was running almost totally dry, the stickiness was laquerified oil.
[23:26:20] <cradek> jeez
[23:26:33] <cradek> what a neat design
[23:26:48] <cradek> I assume those run on a male and female cone?
[23:26:51] <andypugh> This is the balls as they came out, before I polished them

[23:27:27] <andypugh> Do you get forward/backward arrows on the links?
[23:27:41] <cradek> duh
[23:28:26] <andypugh> In the first link I posted you can see the input and output cones. The balls are held agains them both by the outer ring.
[23:28:59] <andypugh> And taper-ramp roller bearings squeeze the cones in at higher torques. All rather neat.
[23:29:32] <cradek> balls and cones still feel smooth?
[23:29:37] <cradek> that's extremely neat
[23:29:38] <cradek> what a lathe
[23:29:41] <andypugh> I haven’t seen needle rollers with split cages before.
[23:30:26] <andypugh> “The entire drive train is removable as a unit for easy maintanance” Yes, a 200kg unit with 1/2” of headroom…
[23:32:01] <andypugh> I reckon there is more metal in the Varfiator than the entire Chinese lathe. (less milling attachment). In fact I know there is, I have carried them both.
[23:32:54] <archivist> that may be the reason my Schaublin is so heavy (has variable speed too)
[23:33:30] <andypugh> But, anyway, I have decided to retire the variator regardless. It’s just too much bother to link to LinuxCNC, despite being technically superior to a VFD
[23:34:09] -!- PetefromTn_ has quit [Quit: I'm Outta here!!]
[23:34:17] <andypugh> Though I can’t help feeling I ought to spend the £11 + £25 carriage for a litre of special Variator Oil.
[23:36:00] <cradek> I bet the low and high fixed gears with a vfd will do you fine
[23:36:42] <cradek> you'll have a bit of a weak spot at the low end of the high gear
[23:36:45] amnesic_away is now known as amnesic
[23:39:50] <andypugh> I can probably extend the motor speed ranges to cover it.
[23:42:32] <Jymmm> HEY ANDY!!!
[23:44:23] <andypugh> High speed is straight-through. Low speed is 6:1 gearing. So, a 1440 motor at 15 - 100Hz will gve me 430 to 3000 rpm in high and 70 to 600 in low, so I can squeeze an overlap.
[23:44:51] <andypugh> (Dreads Jymmm’s next comment)
