  • Hi friends! Today's video is all about my special machine that can cut shapes out of wood and metal. I made it myself! I will tell you about the parts I used to build it and the computer program that helps me use it. Plus, you'll see the machine cutting some cool shapes.

    A closed loop system is definitely the way to go. Skipping steps or losing position is really a thing of the past.

    • @gingerninjaneering
      @gingerninjaneering  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      yeah, I agree, and for the price of servo on closed loop steppers, now it's an easy choice. for a machine seeing cutting loads there is no other option I think. cheers for the comment and support

      @chronokoks 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      well, he's now maybe not skipping steps, but he's getting tons of follow error which results in inaccurate machining. Those servos can't be tune in any reasonable stretch for proper metal machinig. Wooden router for wood projects? Ok..

      @gingerninjaneering  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @chronokoks the servos are awesome. The tuning is done in mach 4 when you tune acceleration. They are fast and powerful and have alarms for safety that can stop the machine. They cut steel like butter plenty of power

    Not sure how I ended up here, but take my sub. Surprised to see you have so few subs with work like this.
    Building a CNC machine from scratch is no small feat...
    ... Building one with all scrap, well, respect my friend.
    I'm in the process right now of a couple 3990 mini mill conversions. One will be a straight conversion with ball screws on the stock dovetails, but the other will be running 20 & 25mm Hiwin Linear Rails. Lots of bracing, lots of epoxy resin.
    Well done!

    Pretty cool. That boiler plate is a key component, great find.
    I've built a couple of small CNCs, used composite stone to make them stiffer, dampened & densier. In the end, it was cheaper to buy a used large CNC with a broken control, but I lost it in a shop move when I could not move it before I lost the space. One of these days I'll buy another.

I have been thinking about re making the z axis from epoxy resin. what did you use to make yours. that's cool I would like to get a broken cnc to do, but in New zealand, there isn't really a market for broken ones. cheers for your comment most appreciated

    If there's any voidspace/unused space in the collumn or elswhere, you can fill it with sand or leadshots or similar to provide more damping/weight to the machine. you can even epoxy it in place to make it contribute to the rigidity aswel.

    I know how hard it is to build milling machines from scratch as Ive done it myself more than once. To give some perspective, on an industrial machine just the frame (without any of the axis, ball screws, table, spindle) weighs about 2,5 ton with that travel. 2-3cm massive cast iron

      @@gingerninjaneering Dude why the fuck are you even arguing with me? Stop arguing with me and LOOK AT TH-cam VIDEOS ON THE TOPIC OF TUNING SERVOS. To properly tune a servo that does not have a sophisticated auto-tuning procedure is a pain and takes long time to learn. For proper tuning of a servo you first have to know the weight of the moving components (of the axis) to set the proper intertia ratio. That's just the first parameter to consider. There are like 20-40 others. Forget what you think you know, you know nothing. AGAIN LOOK AT THE TH-cam VIDEOS, DON'T ARGUE WITH ME, ARGUE WITH THE GARBAGE YOU THINK YOU KNOW.

    • @gingerninjaneering
      @gingerninjaneering  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Proportional Gain (P): This determines how aggressively the servo responds to an error (the difference between the desired position and the actual position). Too high a P gain can cause overshooting and instability, while too low can lead to slow response.
      Integral Gain (I): This addresses steady-state errors (when the servo isn't quite reaching the desired position). Adjusting I gain helps eliminate these errors over time.
      Derivative Gain (D): This anticipates future errors by considering the rate of change in the error. It's used to dampen the system and prevent overshooting.
      this is the same as tuning acceleration and things in mach 4 you are just making sure that it speeds up and slows down at the right point and that the motors will not over or under shoot. just because they don't have software dosent mean they can't be tuned. this is a budget build. I didn't have the money to spend on over priced servos that came with a tuning software. that I can set up myself. and I got 3 motors and drives for the price of one
