Переглядів 7 тис.Рік тому
This video shows how to make Machine Homing faster using the RefCombination() Function and Mach3 VB Scripting. WARNING: To use RefCombination() safely, each Home Switch should trigger 1 Homing LED (X=M1Home, Y=M2Home, Z=M3Home...). If your system is setup is such a way that ONE Home Switch lights up ALL of the homing LEDs at the same time (M1Home, M2Home, M3Home...), then RefCombination() will ...

    • @sunny5rising
      @sunny5rising 5 місяців тому

      Helo Rengan, the external center script can be used to check diameter, i just didn't program it to do it automatically (for safety reasons). To check diameter, run the X-Span, then the Y-Span. This will center the probe. After that, again run the X-span (making sure to not move the Y axis when resetting the probe up), then check the X-Span reading. Run the Y-Span again (making sure not to move the X axis) and take its reading. Those last two span readings will show the diameter on their particular axes.

      Hello cclouds. Glad you find the video and scripts useful. I'm assuming you are using Rev22 of the Z Script. Within this script you'll see that line 114 is Code "G91 G1 Z#102 F[#101*2]". With the feed code F[#101*2], #101 is the Feedrate Variable and the *2 (times 2) is the multiple. You can edit the *2 to *3 or *4 (or whatever multiple you wish) to increase the up speed. Example : Code "G91 G1 Z#102 F[#101*4]". Hope that helps you out.

    Hi Sir, I can see you are an expert..! I hope you can help me..! Can you demystify some of my worries..? There is lot of confusion regarding the reliability and consistency of mach3 as it is PC based and USB or Parallel port.! Lot of people say that it may behave funny in the middle of a project and it may ruin the entire job..! which can be caused by slight voltage spikes from nearby high power accessories like VFD or Motors. And relying fully on PC for CNC operation is not recommended. I am so worried about all these..! I am not sure how much immunity against such HF-RF Noise shielded cables can offer..! But dedicated CNC controllers like Masso and RichAuto are insanely priced.! and I don't have access to USA or Euro Based other CNC Controllers here..! People have also mentioned that If signal voltage is high (24v or higher) It can withstand such interferences..! But mach3 operates at 5V only..! So there is high chance of signal contamination..! Is that a huge concern..? Mach3 Boards are affordable. But If I cant use them for longer projects , then there is no point in spending money for all the parts which are still expensive..! I am so worried..! Secondly, I have seen in videos that The baud rate that mach3 communicates at , is not adequate to drive powerful servos..! ! So Only steppers at low power application is possible with Mach3. That is so discouraging..! Can you help me?

      Sasa sasa. Hello. To date, I have had no problems using Mach3 with my CNC. My only experience with Mach3 is with the machine I currently use (been about 6 or so years) and helping others (with programming and such). My particular setup is a small 3020 CNC using the parallel port. The operating system on my CNC's PC is Windows XP. I mainly do Engraving with it, so my run times are not very long (probably up to 15 minutes at most). I have not experienced the issues/concerns you have mentioned, so I do not have any information to help with noise interference, voltage concerns, or USB connected systems. There are other creators here on UA-cam that use Mach3 and have bigger machines and are running much longer programs than myself. Sorry I don't have more information for you.

      RegPye, the only way that I have used the audio within Mach3 is by use of the internal script functions Speak() and PlayWave(), as they are used in my Z script here. The use of audio in your 3D Printer video is interesting. I would say the same could be done with Mach3 through either scripting alone, or with a combination use of scripting and Gcode. Depending on how you wanted to do it.

      Send me an email sunny5rise@gmail.com and explain to me the exact issue, along with any errors that pop up, if any. The script might just need some slight editing.

      You should be able to find the Polyurethane and/or vinyl tubing at Amazon. It'll come as a roll, and you just cut it to the length you need.

    Hi Charlie I’m quite new to Mach3 but I’ve managed to download and change the background and scripts everything is working fine apart from the external centre finder no matter what number I enter for how far to travel past the size of part I’ve entered it travel’s about 3” past both X and Y and I can’t seem to fix it can you advise please?

    Great video Charlie, in an unrelated topic that hopefully you or one of you viewers can explain to me is why when I use Mach 3 Lathe Turn, both the X and Z axis bog down very noticeably when the tool moves in one direction then back in the opposite direction only when backlash is enabled. When I use Mach 3 Mill with the same settings with the machine this does not happen. I have tried using different controllers and drives , triple checked each configuration setting in Lathe Turn without success; my theory is it is a programming issue.

      I apologize for the late reply. I wish I had an answer for you, but I do not have a CNC lathe to test things out. Were you able to get the issue resolved?

    • @practicemakesbetter7132

      No worries, I resolved the issue by using a NVCM controller board, I hope to make a video to show others my results, thanks.

    Maybe I am in the wrong section but I want to know how much I need to beat myself up when I am bubble balancing using this method which I have now used for years on end thanks to none other than you. I really struggle with 245/45s on 7.5 inch rims using a HF manual tire changer. Not so much because of the process but the fact that I am supposed to be aligning the yellow mark on the tire with the valve stem. Adding the duckbill mod and clamps to the changer really helped but since the name of the game is precision I find that it is just too much for me (so far) to line up the yellow mark with the valve stem with a profile that low while focusing on getting the tire on the rim. As a result, I end up turning the tire after mounting it on the rim to make them line up which takes every ounce if strength in my body. It feels doable when I am doing it but my back pays for it for weeks on end in a few days. How much do I really need to focus on getting that yellow dot lined up with the valve stem? This is getting harder as I approach 50 but it really is that part which is bugging me. Does the yellow mark matter at all or is placement 100% mitigated due to this process? Having the yellow mark off does mess with my OCD though. Thanks once again for making it a better for the commoners and stubborn bastards as life gets tougher.

      Hello James, you definitely do not need to beat yourself up over the yellow dot. Putting the yellow dot anywhere close to the valve stem is fine, and even THAT isn't truly important. That dot just means it's the lightest point of the tire... which can be lined up with the valve stem (which is expected to be the heaviest point of the wheel). If lined up, then you MIGHT use less weights when balancing, but that's the extent of the importance of it all. :)

    Why do people with real world experience, say static balancing produced better results with less vibration then computer... will have to try I guess!

      When they balance my wheels at the shop my rims have like 5 pounds of dirty. A bubble balancer will do a better with a clean wheel than a dirty wheel on a modern machine.

    I tried this on my machine and got a few errors on Mach3 v3.041. After reverse engineering the whole script I found out all I had to do was change my VarStandOff, VarGageThick and VarProbeDia to whole numbers, as "VCATCH" was returning the operation between these variables with a decimal point and mach3 apparently didn't know how to input decimal values into my xyz coordinates, the first time I tried it I got -28715 or something like that, good thing I have limit switches, cuz I sent it g0x0y0 before checking where the machine thought it was. I guess it could be easily fixed if you don't have a whole number diameter probe, but I don't want to read through VB script or Mach3 documentation right now. Thanks for sharing, Charlie!

    Thanks to you, I've been able to use it very comfortably for the past few years, and I'm just now thanking you. Especially since I recently moved to mach4, there is nothing more special about it, and I miss the convenience of the Auto Tool Zero (Z Axis) you created in mach3. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

    I had a model older than this one that I love. My sister has difficulty with tools that are too heavy and she actually loved mine and found it easy to use ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG . This is a newer model but was even lighter which she really appreciates. She enjoys it and I no longer have to go to her house to trim as she can handle it fine. Haven't used it enough to comment on the battery life but lithium batteries last longer than the old style. Being cordless makes it easy to trim the far edges of the property. The entire yard can be trimmed with one charged battery.
