you need to be using the Openbuilds post processor for Fusion360. It will automatically generate a gcode file per tool, since grbl does not...
Our Fusion360 post creates a Gcode file per tool. If are using other CAM software then you should do the same. GRBL has no facility for storing...
macro: (googles definition) noun: macro; plural noun: macros; noun: macro instruction; plural noun: macros instruction; plural noun: macro...
oh, this is probably the actual issue. Industry standards dictate that machine home is at the positive ends of axis travel (from tool travel...
get yourself a C-beam kit and get some experience before embarking an a huge build. LinuxCNC seriously? read this GitHub - gnea/grbl: An open...
I was just looking at fusion 360, I think it’s the paid one that does 4 Axis, I shall have a look at the other DeskProto as well. I’ve tried with...
Firstly, have you measured your cutting bit? If you don't use the actual bit size in the CAM, you will not get the correct size cut. 2nd, what...
If you've got the money then skip the GRBL hoops and buy the ESS, run through a G540 (or Bob with drivers), through mach3/4 or LinuxCNC(free)....
ok, so whats happening here is im a complete fool. I couldn't figure out why my bit was dropping so I figured it was the machine...it wasn't. it...
I was forgetting about the tool change! So helpful. I had trouble with the OpenBuilds post processor (my fault) so I went back to as basic as I...
Keith you are doing something wrong in the way you are setting up the machine. 'dragging the bit' means you have not set the machine coordinate...
Hey Stan. I watched the video and ran through the code(was at work earlier) and I'm in agreement that it's software related. The problem you're...
Technically, CONTROL is just a Host, you may be referring to OpenBuilds CAM :) CAM has limited Gerber support (Tested against Eagle) so can't say...
So you changed it in the gcode file at the start (line 22) but not in fusion360 post options, so the ending G53 G0 Z-0.3937 is what dragged...
Workflow above looks good (though you can eliminate the first step too, you can draw the 2D lines in the Sketch mode of Fusion360 directly -...
I believe the right thing to do is to teach users as early as possible that turning on with Z high is the right thing to do, always. This makes a...
The problem is in your Machine Coordinate System (also known as home) and your G28 settings. The controller uses several offset coordinate systems...
Hello Dennis, Electronics and software are usually the confusing part. Electronics can vary a little depending on the control software, but it's...
Alright folks, I did a whole lot of testing the past two days. I will upload some pictures of the results when I get back home. But based from...
To run the router you use an Arduino+GRBLsoftware+a driver board (or a TinyG or other controller) If you use a dedicated controller like the above...
