Ok…
Verstehe ich das richtig ich habe also nur zwei Optionen im Sheetcam einsetzen oder den G-Code im Qplasmac zu änder ?

Okay...

Do I understand that correctly, so I only have two options to use in the sheetcam or to change the G-code in Qplasmac?

Hi Todd, can you explain what does this machine do? I didnt understand.

Thanks.

Retrofitting a small bending machine

Category: CNC Machines

Hi
seem to have stumbled into a little project.
 

I have already retrofitted my Maho MH500 and a cycle lathe to Linuxcnc
retrofitted, which is why a friend has now asked me to have a look
to have a look at his bending machine.

The press was probably retrofitted to a newer control system.
However, it has now stopped working and when I switch it on I get the error message

"WARNING LOST VIDEO TABLES"
 


if I google this I only find 3 forum entries, but without any answer or even a solution.
I can't say whether the controller is broken or "just" lost the programming or parameters...

In any case, I now need a replacement.
A simple 3-axis positioning controller.
The controller would only have to control 2 stops and the press stop.

all 3 axes have analog -10/+10V drives
there are probably 3 encoders somewhere for the position feedback
and that's about it.

I don't need cycles and bending programs.
If we get the 3 axes into the desired position via the control system and
then operate the press hydraulically as usual is enough...


If the machine were in my shop, I would say
Linuxcnc Raspberry, small TFT mesa card and I operate the thing via Gcode in MDI.

Maybe there is a simpler standalone solution?
 

What is your time frame?
This might come across as ridiculous but I can handle the whole thing on a $10 RPi Pico 2 + support devices

This chip has "PIO state machines" and I am reading 4 quadrature encoders with a maximum rate > 5M quadrature counts/sec without using any of the two cores' processing power.

One core of the RP2350 MCU handles the servo PIDs + velocity profilers and the other core handles video. Motor command is 12-bit +-10v

I have been designing/building metal forming controls (up to 21 axes) since 1988 and this is my latest development. Right now I have a bunch of CNC tube-benders to retrofit with this thing (3-axis and 5-axis) and the control development is on-going.

Just thought I'd throw it out there.

The glade panel is outdated, there is a pull request that fixes the issue:

You can also manually replace the content in 'manualtoolchange.ui' with this:

If you mean the 'Calibration' program from the bottom row in the settings page of gmoccapy, that is one of the external programs common to all GUIs. The source code for that can be found in the '/tcl' folder.

Hello,
Last time with LCNC 2.9.2, it worked.
But now I upgraded to LCNC 2.9.3, it can not work again.
Can "hal_widgets.py" and "hal_python.xml" still be ok ?.
Thank you.

from the docs:

press F12 an editor will show for the style sheet:
 

press the 'copy to edit tab' and then edit as you please.
apply to test.
Then save for next time. The view tab should show the path/filename of the stylesheet that qtdragon will use.

Barfeeder controller upgrade for citizen L32 turning center

Category: Turning

The lathe signals are going to the PLC's I/Os.
Since I'm new to PLCs and have a few mesa card lying around, I thought, linuxcnc was a easy way.
Looks like I need to learn to program a PLC now. If anybody have the firmware for the Arteco PLC (for analog axis control) {Arteco mentions they provide function blocks for analog control or PWM} I shall try to get the existing PLC working or should I just get a new PLC. I have the schematics for the interface between lathe and bar feeder.

One option would be to have SheetCam to not send a material change and then set the material manually before cutting.

Quick google shows on eBay a picture of Citizen CM2-PC805-0 it's not a controller it's just a discrete IO card. The interface between your machine controller and the Arteco PLC is done true discrete IO's.
You need the schematic of your machine to be able to wire a new PLC to control the bare feeder. no need for LinuxCNC an overkill for this project.
