YES !!! One axis working under TurboCNC, a few questions now..
I finally hooked up a motor to my Y axis tonight and with my
homebuilt Camtronics servo controller and TurboCNC I was able to make
it jog back and forth.
The biggest problem is that I am running a ratio of 3:1 due to the
servo motors and the table is not moving enough when I enter a value.
I thought I saw a screen to enter my drive ratios?? Am I thinking of
another program? How do I compensate for this in the software?
The machine is a Sloptask unit that I converted to ballscrews and
will have 3 axis CNC control. Next thing to do tonight is make the
motor bracket for the X axis. I modified the factory bracket for the
Y and it looks like it will work fine.
Thanks,
