How to jog when beyond soft limits

Category: EtherCAT

I can see you issue and agree that a better solution is needed for absolute encoder setups.

Maybe two sets of software limits are needed?
Working area
Absolute maximum travel
If machine is within "working area" travel/jogging outside is needed
If machine is outside "working area" but within "absolute maximum travel", then allow jogging. Once within "working area" don't allow jogging/movement back out

Work around:
Move machine off soft limits on shut-down

Emulating lathe compound angle via manipulation of X & Z drives

Category: HAL Examples

Axis GUI for a lathe, using Mesa 
I have servos driving the X (cross slide), and Z (carriage) all working.
I also have MPG to manipulate X & Z.
I have removed my compound to make the lathe more rigid, with the rationale that I can emulate the compound via correct step pulse generation of the X & Z drives via the MPG.

Has someone done this?
HAL example?

Thank you

How to jog when beyond soft limits

Category: EtherCAT

On my AXIS gui setup, I can switch to "joint mode" by hitting $ (shift-4)
which lets the servos jog slowly back into the normal travel range. Hit $ again to go back to "world mode" to run as normal from there. Im guessing the other GUI have an easy way to get into joint mode as well. you could also manually turn the ballscrew a little :D

Getting Ebay 2.6kw ethercat kit going. was created by Kieran

Getting Ebay 2.6kw ethercat kit going.

Category: EtherCAT

Im trying to get my 2.6kw spindle servo going. its got a P200SE drive. the instructions are written in Chinese. I used google translate and it worked pretty good. Right now im running it as a Z axis just to see if i can get it working. I got my XML setup enough that Linuxcnc reads the encoder no problem. the servo powers up and holds position along with my stepperonline X and y servos. my current roadblock is that its not listening to commands and doesnt move and it gets a following error shortly after. if i power off and turn the motor the DRO moves the distance expected so that's a good sign. the servo load meter on the PYvcp is workign for this servo too, when i "fight" the servo. i must just be missing something simple in my XML?


lcec_configgen gives me this

A little underpowered, if you have one give it a go, if not I wouldn't recommend buying one.

T630 isn't a bad choice for connecting to a mesa Ethernet card.

T610 Plus maybe ok for a Parallel Port system with an RTAI kernel, or Debian Wheezy might be the go. 2.7.x Linuxcnc

Weird problem happening during g71, g70 cycle

Category: General LinuxCNC Questions

More findings:

I am running g95 with a manual bldc controlled spindle. The jerk happens at around z -17.2 everytime no matter if the spindle was running at 1200 rpm or stopped or at 100 rpm. It never happens before that or after that no matter how much time was given for the axis to reach at that point. So i can safely rule out any problems with electrical noise and such issues (though my control panel isnt good enough).

Now if i change the backlash from 0.08 to 0.0- the problem vanishes.

Even on the graphical interface it looks like a straight like, g70, g71 trie to do a small move at z-17.2 for reasons unknown, for which the backlash motion is triggered. I am not sure yet. Let me increase the backlash to much higher numbers to see if the jerk increases or stays the same as before.

Thx for the reply.
I know that linuxcnc has 9 axis in total and the name in different.
For now i have the linear guide rails and i'm working in Solidworks to build the 3d model of the entire build.
What i dont know is how to use linuxcnc for the spindle configuration.For example should i use a servomotor for the spindle head, main and subspindle or use a different style like a regular 3 phase motor with a VFD comanded by RS485 and then when i need position i can switch to servomotor or a stepper motor.
The advantage will be with 3 phase motor i can get higher rpm.
