... or, if you are going to use G1 in the default G99 mode, do you have the spindle running already, and have you given it a suitable per-revolution feedrate?
You can probably run that system with Oak (+OpticDirect) in analog velocity mode. The drives need the tachogenerator feedback from the motors, to do their speed control. The Oak needs quadrature position feedback to know where the axis is. No, there is no way to usefully generate a quadrature encode...
Short answers: (1) The CNC program you posted, written out by the "mpu11wheeldig.txt" file currently on your control, assumes that PLC bit MEM72 (CNC variable #70072) will indicate when dry run mode is active. However, your PLC program sets MEM58 (CNC variable #70058) to indicate dry run m...
You could use the OpticDirect interface through the DriveBus connection on Allin1DC. OpticDirect can run third-party drives in either analog velocity mode or in position mode. You are not guaranteed synchronized movement with the Allin1DC axes if you use position mode, but for basic functional testi...
I agree with Nigelo. Foremost, your emergency stop circuit should remove power from the stepper drivers. That should reliably ensure that the motors are free of power and torque whenever emergency stop is pressed.
The Intercon program and graph are correct. It is tracing around the outside of a 2" x 3" rectangle, centered at X1 Y1.5. The toolpath (cutter center) is correctly offset to the outside by 0.1875 (the radius of the cutter you specified). Assuming that you did your part setup so that MDI &q...
Okay, let's revisit your original description of the issue. The tool path will be off in both the X and Y directions but not in both plus and minus directions. Is the frame that the tool traces: 1) Too large or too small in X and/or Y? 2) Off center in X and/or Y? It would help if you would post a c...
Delta C2000+ + CMC-EC01 (EtherCAT) + EMC-PG01H SIN-COS Encoder Card for the Fanuc Servo Motor: This setup adapts modern Ethercat communication to interface with the existing Fanuc servo motor. You may want to review that one with someone knowledgeable at Centroid. My understanding is that spindle d...
