Re: Z Axis lag - Loosing position
Great! I'll give that a shot and run a few parts. Will report back on how it goes.

Re: Z Axis lag - Loosing position
No brake enabled, but the z axis doesn't move when power is off.
It really is the computer is trying to step and it doesn't seem to respond to the pulses if they are even sent

Re: Z Axis lag - Loosing position
okay I have the steppers working off the DB25 now, and all on 5v logic power, and its work. However the problem persists on the Z axis. I played around for a bit, and I can see it repeatably happen if I move the Z axis around, then Estop, give it a few moments, then try to move the Z axis, it misses...

Re: Z Axis lag - Loosing position
I purchased a db25 breakout and will try that! I'll report back on how it goes. I've had great success with the large stepper on my z axis, but I'm still using the stock 10tpi acme lead screw. This is also powered with a separate power supply. I've limited the machine to very slow speeds, as my spin...

Z Axis lag - Loosing position
Hey team, so I have converted a Grizzly G0619 to CNC with an Acorn board and StepperOnline drivers. I have fine success, and have made a number of parts now. But I get into situations where I loose my Z position. My process: I zero the tool to the top of my stock to get and offset. Upon starting the...

Any progress on the build? Looking at one of these myself, haven't found much info out there though.

Re: Proximity Sensor issue, never trips?
I'm 100% positive that its a PNP NC sensor! There's my issue. Dek keeping the gate open because of this. New ones on the way!
