#MASTERCAM X5 MACHINING PROFILE DRIVER#
TB6600 Stepper Motor Driver is an easy-to-use stepper motor driver, which could control a two-phase stepping motor. The device is targeted primarily for controlling up to 8 STEP/DIR signal driven motors (stepper motors, servo drives, etc.) in various applications with the addition of powerful PoKeys device features. PoKeys57CNC USB and Ethernet CNC controller is a blend between general purpose PoKeys device and motor controller.

Installed in an industrial plastic enclosure (400x500x240), the electronics of the CARVER X5 is composed of a set of drivers for each motor including the spindle driver, a USB interface control board, a sensor interface board and two 12v 42A DC Power Supply. Machine designĬNC machines are commonly known that they are nothing more than automated robots, their famous type, is a 3 axis CNC machines, which are considered as 3P robots (robot with 3 Prismatic Joints linked with 4 Links).īut in 5 axis CNC machines we talk about 3P2R robots, because they are composed of 3 Prismatic Joints succeeded with 2 Revolute Joints, and linked with 6 Links.

Software : supports any CAD/CAM software 2. Power requirements : 1200W, 220V, 60hz, 13AĬomputer requirements : Windows operating system with Mach3Ĭontroller : MACH3 (to be purchased separately from an official vendor) Linear guides : HIWIN High accuracy Rails and Blocks Motors used : NEMA 23 ( X / Y / Z / B / C) Constructed mainly from Heavy Aluminum Extrusion profiles, and thick aluminum milled parts, HGR25 Linear guides, using NEMA23 Stepper motors, and Rack and pinion for transmission, Carver X5 is capable of milling materials like wood, plastics and composite materials. We tried our best to make it both robust and easily replicable machine. So we thought we could create the first OSHW, Head/Head, double swivel head form, 5 Axis CNC Machine. This 5 axis CNC machine, is part of a big project made by our partners Open Lab Hamburg from the Helmut Schmidt University in Germany, for the benefit and with the collaboration of FABLAB ENIT (National School of Engineering of Tunis), and sponsored by the BMBF. You can find more details on our TechSpace in our: Moreover, this 5 Axis CNC Machine, is our first Open Source Hardware Project we made, and which we are so happy sharing it with the community. In our TechSpace, many projects were developed and created, even if it is by our staff or by students from different universities across the country, starting from Drones, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, arriving to Robotic Arms and CNC Machines. And this is why, we made from our little space in Sousse, a TechSpace, open for everyone who wants to work on real projects, finding all what a Maker needs to create his own tech project. In MakerLab, we believe in the Open Source Hardware philosophy and we want to spread the tech knowledge we gain, with the community so everyone performs itself and benefits from others experiences. MakerLab is a Tunisian tech startup specialized in developing customized embedded systems and mechatronics projects to industrials. Between programing other 3 axis work, setting up machines and dealing with the other machinist, when a job finally comes along for this machine, to say that I'm fully prepared to knock off a program as I normally would with any other job, well, not so much.CARVER X5, the Open source 5 Axis CNC Machine Story: MakerLab : One of my main problems is not enough seat time. This forum is great with the help a guy can get but there is just so much involved with 5 axis that uses terms and tools that are completely different and new, to expect to learn it all here is foolish.Īfter a brief introduction to solids/surfaces/3D way back, I plodded through and figured out pretty much everything I've ever needed to do but this is a different animal and some extra guidance I'm not to proud to admit I need. It simulated nice and smooth.Ĭrazy^Millman~ I'll be in touch with you soon to set up some training in the future.
#MASTERCAM X5 MACHINING PROFILE HOW TO#
While I agreed that 5X Curve was the way to go, I was forgetting how to set up the control lines, how many needed, especially around radius, so thanks for your example. Keith A-1~ you saved my butt with your file. I put it on the FTP, swarf sync.exe, not sure if you can run it? If you can, feed slow. I did a "create Presentation" of what it does from the simulation. I concur that the 5X curve gives the smoothest toolpath, (head movement wise) The swarf path did some wacky loop like moves in the corners when I ran my machine simulation.

Does that setting stay strictly with the host PC when putting a file up on the FTP? 0005 and it got around those small breaks.
