Keith,
Thought this would be an easy operation, as I followed the training manual to a t. Maybe because the rotary is an off brand, the stepper motor is stepping in incorrect steps?

Hello all,
I am working with a Pinnacle Accuris 30w laser and am having trouble with the rotary attachment. All of the graphics sent to the machine are being skewed in the y axis. For example, when...
Think I have it almost figured out. Pressure at the compressor did not fall, leading me to believe that the problem was farther down the line. In the interim, I lessened the blow off time, used to...
Pressure is being monitored at the machine head. Will check pressure at the compressor next.
Wow, thanks guys, lots to think about.
Compressor is right next to machine, with a short line. I would say the hoses on the machine are at least 3/8, but the lines going from compressor to the...
Thank you for all of the replies, much appreciated!
Pressure is being monitored about 1 foot away from the tool, about as close as it can be, and I can watch it build and hold to 110, then it drops off the tool, and the pressure drops to 50, taking...
The pneumatic actuator(Tool CHanger) is calling for 80-100 psi.
I had originally purchased this small compressor because it was going to be dedicated to the machine, and ran super quiet. It operates...
6.3 gal tank at 40psi rated at 3.80cfm, at 90pst rated at 2.35 cfm
Good Day Everyone!
Was hoping for some advice regarding my air compressor.
I am working on a cnc router that requires roughly 100psi to operate a pnuematic valve that opens and closes a...
Larry,
Can you comment on the engraving aspect of Sandeply? Looks like I will have to buy a 4x8 to test. Thanks, Marc
Ok,
Thanks for all of the replies. Laser has just been recharged and is @ 42 watts nominal(?), 50 watts peak. Not quite sure what they meant by this, but that is what the data sheet said. I guess...
Hello All,
I always appreciate all of the help I receive on this site, Thanks!
Ok, Here goes,
I have two products that I have been using 6mm baltic birch for, but cutting has been...
Richard,
Yes thank you. Exactly what I was looking for. I pulled it up in the driver area under advanced, but I cannot enter any information. I will do some checking, might need to find a password...
Michael,
I am cutting the largest square possible on my machine(26x20), then measuring corner to corner. The laser pointer idea is good, and i will try it out, but I have trouble trusting my eyes...
Brian,
No dowels that i can see. Because of the way it was askew, I was able to loosen two of the screws that hold the the y rails to the cabinet, and shift both of the rails a tad left, and then...
Gotcha.
Ok, the other question I had, is whether I can adjust the steps of the stepper motors through the software like I can with my CNC router? Doing some tests today, when cutting a 5" square,...
Kev,
Thanks buddy. I loosened up each screw that aligns y rails and shifted them over just a bit. Corner to corner is now equal(based on a tape measure). Willing to bet that it is still off a bit. I...
Good day Everyone!
Having only cut smaller more intricate designs with my laser, I was unaware that it is currently cutting/lasing out of square. Measuring corner to corner over the entire size of...
Chris,
Was hoping someone would chime in about the 3m tape. Best case scenario, would be something that came in sheets, so larger cuts could be performed.
Roger,
Thanks, was hoping to not have...
Hello All,
I am having trouble locating a laser friendly adhesive foam cushion that can be laser cut for making art stamps. I can trim them separately, manually, but may have trouble when it comes...
Hello everyone!
I started the laser up today(Accuris 30watt w/ synrad tube), and am getting a very weak fire of the laser on full power, 4 speed, which would normally cut through 1/16" material...
In my latest project, I am cnc routing a cribbage board that is basically rectangular in design. Once routed, I do some sanding to remove the tabs, as well as some light sanding of the overall piece...
Richard,
I guess I just saw oriental motor, and thought steppers! I will have to check out the encoder disc threads. will update with my findings. Thank you for the information-Marc
Yes Dan,
The file will start out normal, and then about a 1/6th of the way through the raster engraving, the machine(or software) skips on the X axis only, about a half an inch to the right, and...
