Hello nerds,
We have some new videos posted to the Mach3 Youtube site.
http://www.youtube.com/groups_videos?name=artsoft
Please check out the "4th Axis" and "Yellow Mill" videos posted by
yethdear. The "YellowMill vidoe was post a few months ago.
Some background with these machines; my high school students along with
our electronics students rebuilt the YellowMill using geckos and Mach3.
The machine had an older CNC package on it but I hated it so we tore it
off. My most important piece of advice to anyoe that is trying to
rebuild/build CNC machines; optical isolators! optical isolators!
optical isolators!
We got good at this retrofitting stuff so we decided to build our own
rotary 4th axis from scratch. Both projects took about a year to
complete.
Just showing off a bit.
