Hey Warren, I do have an old cordless drill around with dead batteries. If I can't get this stepper driver strategy to work, I'll give it a go!
@Rob: Thanks for your help! I got the Arduino and demoed some simple signal interpretation and output with LEDs. I glazed over your statement that...
Hey Rob, thanks so much for the help! I studied the LM331 circuit and I understand how to reproduce with my breadboard. I'm thinking I'll get...
I think I found the black TB6600 you were talking about: https://www.amazon.com/MYSWEETY-TB6600-Stepper-Driver-Controller/dp/B01MYMK1G9 I thought...
Ok, so I was thinking the 0-10V VFD signal was coming out of the BlackBox Toolhead output. Is this incorrect? There's a good chance we'll want...
Whoops, sorry for the dupe link, meant to send you this: https://www.amazon.com/KNACRO-Frequency-voltage-converted-frequency/dp/B01HXS9SOA I'm...
Yes, you're exactly right about our "printer" and I thought the conversion wouldn't be too complex either, but I'm a programmer and occasional...
Good to know! I have a little over 5 years development experience, which is exactly why I'm worried about getting too far into the weeds here! I...
Hey Peter, Thanks for the wisdom! Wish I'd asked you guys a couple months ago :banghead: We're only running this on 2 axis, so I thought a CNC...
Makes sense! Thanks so much for getting back to us Gary!
If we get the 10W or 5W resistors, do you think we should put a 10W/5W fuse in too?
Good to know! We really don't want to burn this thing up :( I see a lot of cheap resistors that max out at 1/4 watt, but if we're running 24v it...
Thanks so much for getting back to me Gary! Yes, I'm planning on using the same PSU. So I'll pick up the pulse converter you linked and the...
First time putting together a CNC machine, got all my parts from OpenBuilds and have a quick question, any advice or googling instructions...
