Functions mate, you want to write a function! void check_electromag(int x, int y, int pinnumber) { // put actual code here } And you have a list of magnets, so you can define them in a list, then you can check all of them in a loop, calling this function. struct electromag_s{int x, int y, int pin} const int num_mags = 30; electromag_s maglist[num_mags]; for(int i; i< num_mags;i++) { check_electromag(maglist[i].x, maglist[i].y, maglist[i].pin); } Well done either way, being persistent always gets results

Now you just need to model the magnet coordinates back in your CAM software - so you can layout your cut paths to miss as many magnets as possible 🙂 Thanks for the videos.
We all need to write some comments and press like it, so that others saw this masterpiece. Some stupid videos got millions of views, but creative and smart ones got none. Humanity is doomed
For the code, you should add each XY coordinate to an array, then all you'd need to do is loop through the array checking them against the position of the plasma head. So you'd have something like: currentHeadX = 1 currentHeadY = 2 numberOfMagnets = 4 magnetLocations = [ [1, 2], [3, 4], etc... ] for(i = 0; i < numberOfMagnets; i++){ if(magnetLocations[i][0] is close to currentHeadX and magnetLocations[i][1] is close to currentHeadY){ turnOffMagnet(i) } } Cus then you don't need to repeat the same block of code 24 times lol
@@cranktowncity bro it's not embarrassing there's a million dudes who can code better than you but almost none of them can work with steel and build epic machines like you can, don't worry about it.
@@Sven_Dongle I don't think you're correct here. He needs either a 2D array with [x,y] being one dimension and magnet number being the other. Or a 1D array with each the coordinate pairs in a single object for each magnet. (Either would be effectively equivalent) Hell, he could also use one big 2D array of X, Y with each element being a 0 for no magnet or 1 for magnet. Either way, I don't see him needing a 3D array at all.
Firing the electromagnets with the relays will eventually fry the contacts because of HV coil kickback. The remedy is to use reversed biased diodes on each relay output. It will suppress the kickback, and is fairly easy to wire. I'd use at least 100V diode but you may want to measure the kickback to se if it's higher.
I've had huge problems with this myself. The kickback gives voltages that are almost unbelievable resulting in 300amp spikes from a tiny 3v relay!. Snubbers, ferrite core chokes or your flyback diode suggestion is a must for reliable long term operation of a relay system. Up voting so cranky t, can get something in to prevent it.
Easy fix for the bouncing wire on the winding machine: superglue some felt pads to the inside of the jaws of a clothes pin or clip for a bag of chips (something without a ton of pressure) and just clip that onto the wire as it goes into the guide. Should keep steady pressure regardless of what the spool is doing.
3:00 spoke like a fellow man who has been graced with enlightment. Meaning yeah, math's really cool, /if/ you figure out how to use it. Before that, it's just "magic". 4:58 when you design a part and forget an offset... shift happens as we programmers say.
your code is fine. i mean i could critique it for a while but it is understandable and not weird... and you're not a programmer so that's a huge win imo
It looked like the outer casing of the electromagnets and the end plates are too thin to be efficient. Ideally you want the cross section of the magnetic field's path to be the same everywhere along the path, meaning your outer tubing should have the same cross section as the part in the middle, and the end cap should actually be even thicker because the relevant cross section in there is actually a cylinder (geometry is fun lol). Of course they will work as they are, just telling you this in case you make some more or want to make stronger ones at some point. Great content as usual :)
I still remember 30 years ago when I discovered how to program with re-useable subroutines, I had made a tic tac toe program in visual basic 1.0 and it was 3 pages long, then I figured out that I could just call one "engine" and slap into the parameters the variable and bam, the program was half a page, thrilling! lol
Other simple solution could be to use some neodymium magnets attached to some pneumatic cylinders, that would pull the magnets away from the surface when needed. Bunch of cheap ali-ex spring loaded cylinders and 3/2 valves would do the magic. This way the magnets would be a little bit mor protected from the plasma burner because of the distance and you would also have the holding power during power outage. Btw thanks for all the great content.
Even the cheapest pneumatic cylinders would need heat resistant plumbing and individual solenoids rapidly driving up the cost. Also, the neodymium magnets will ALWAYS be on and would collect alarming amounts of swarf. They would not be able to "re-engage" after the cutting head passes.
I'm amazed by the detail you go into many of these projects and the wiring! I've done projects for years and have not gotten to the neatness you did with the control box! Keep on making greatness!
That was one of the most original videos I've watched on u tube in for ever. Great job. Won't be long before the big CNC companies are stealing this idea
I'd consider making the magnets moveable using permanent magnets to place them anywhere so you can mount them where cuts won't be made wherever possible then automatically scan and learn their positions with a Hall effect sensor on the head or a simpler option would be sacrificial replaceable surface plates for the magnets which can easily be replaced when they get cut up too badly. Both methods have pro's and cons.
GREAT JOB BRO!!! I am THROUGHLY IMPRESSED!!!! Between this, the wire winding machine, and the icicle making machine I have to say that you're programming skills are dayum guud!!!!! As long as you know how to look up the code for what you want to do then the hardest part is knowing what it is you need the controller to do and how to do it..... (as in knowing that you want the electromagnets to turn on/off when the cutter head is near/over them, and that you should use the x,y coordinates to do this ) but you can probably be able to get some AI that can do- microcontroller code to write most of it for you...... but like I said, the hardest part is knowing what you need the microcontroller to do and AI can write the code to make it do those things :) (I hope I make sense lol)
Awesome! The only thing I see being maybe an issue is that when there’s a power outage it would disengage and drop the sheet. If you ever did something on the heavy side, might be worth having some corner restraints for the sheet? Cool video. Love watching your process mate
Best to use some thicker wire for strong magnets, but another thing you can do which is harder but does add to the magnetism is wind the wire top to bottom and then stretch it to the top and wind to the bottom each layer. This causes more of the coil to be in the same direction, it's hard to get right but it makes a huge difference compared to each layer going the opposite direction. Just my experience
I feel like you could make those magnets last a lot longer if you add a linear actuator to each to pull them back just enough for the laser to not hit it, but at the same time that'd add another 24 moving parts you don't *really* need
whoa BEAUTIFUL cabling in the box man, thats amazing. you should also invest in some control cables so you can reduce the numbers of free wires. helps manage multiple devices easier man this was such a cool video. you deserve so much more exposure. this is one of the coolest projects ive seen
If you were to cut a 1/2 inch thick slice of some solid steel round bar and cut a lot of slits into one face of it with a cut off wheel and basically use that as the shield for the electromagnets I wonder if it would still allow the magnetic field to have plenty of grip on the plate while also providing space for the plasma jet and smoke somewhere to go via the slits and grooves. I once did something similar to what you did and my problem was always the plasma jet just melting everything and because of crap backfiring into the nozzles it ruined a lot of tips too. Keep up the great videos my dude.
(To stabilize your wire spool on the winder …) Couple of 3d printed cone-end-sleeves for your wire spool? Between the wire nut and the spool? Probably a name for it …
Damn this is cool, I was waiting for the "ya that turned out to be too complicated so I'm gonna use X" and it just never happened. I wonder if you could just have a template that locates your magnets in your designs so they don't get run over by the plasma
Last time I used a magnetic ground clamp thing it disrupted the plasma field so bad that it made the kerf about 3/8" wide and when closest to the magnet it stopped cutting out when on top of the steel leaving gouges.
Electromagnets are a little beyond my usual wheelhouse, but I wonder if you could have the cores extend further past the housing, so that as they get hit with plasma you might be able to re-sueface them a few times.
Great project man, but i'd like to know what is your plan when the plasma eventually passes over one of those magnets, melts the living days out of it and short-circuits to the steel frame?
What happens when the plasma cuts over/through one of these though? The slats under a usual plasma cutter are consumables, i get the feeling these will end up being consumablized as well unfortunately. There are off the shelf electromagnets, I see them all the time on aliexpress. They're build just like yours but with a threaded hole usually for mounting. Might be useful when it comes to replacing these, since they seem like a lot of work to make.

06:55 - 0.28mm layer height is fast not smooth? I must be too accustomed to post-processing my prints; I am almost exclusively printing at 0.5mm layers with a 1.0mm nozzle on an Ender 3 V2 Neo. I would print the spools a bit undersize, then epoxy or screw the spool in place and there probably wouldn't be too much of a difference. I think it would be good enough with a layer of tape smoothing out the winding surface of the spool to even out the rough layer lines. :D
well yeah, .28mm is not really smooth but its way more than enough. I cringe so bad when i see people print simple parts without any real details at anything under .26 honestly. I always print at 0.36mm and only go lower for really detailed parts, like M42 to M48 adapter rings with threads. Gotta get me one of them 1mm nozzles...
A function could save you some of the repetition in the code. But if it aint broke dont fix it. One thing i saw was the plate buckle some when one of them released in the end while it cut the top to bottom. Dont know the solution or if its worth digging into. If the cut was satisfactory then id ognore it. Thinner plate like your were cutting tends to go crazy at the best of times thicker plate will have less of an issue (it will also have a firmer hold).
