здравствуйте , подскажите где можно скачать скетч , с такими функциями ,чтоб можно было менять обороты двигателя и направления движения (реверс ) и кнопка пауза . Hello, tell me where you can download the sketch, so that you can change the engine speed and direction of movement (reverse) and the pause button.
what a great video! It is just what i need. I built my own cnc machine with the same driver and arduino, so i decided to add another motor but i do not had any idea how to connect it. Thanks man, now i hit the suscribe button!
Be careful using those TB6560 modules. The data sheet specifically calls for the 5v logic to be applied to the chip first and be allowed to settle before the motor voltage (24v or more) is applied to the chip. Those module derive the logic voltage from the higher voltage using a 7805 thus compromising the power-up sequence. There have been reports of failed chips as a result. The problem can be resolved with a modification of the power circuitry.
You deserve thumbs UP good work My friend . Please upload a wiring Operation with step by step thing , as we old people are not Quad core 2.5 GHz we are kind of 386 architecture with 1 MB ram and 1 MB disk space . which is a lots for 1955 generation The only great thing about it is that we have Huge size High energy consumption High cost and very limited out put. So keep us in mind we are still operational

hello sir, i like your video it contain every in the video more understable, you have explain each and every thing by step by step. but i need some help for you which software will be use. and by using this method can be made cnc wire bender
Blender Wiki Hi, thanks. I didn't put a fuse on the power input of my TB6560's, but there is a fuse inn my power supply. That way the PSU and the TB6560's are protected. I have not had any problems with the power up. Do you experience problems?
No i am testing right now the TB6560, same board like yours, but few people point out a issue with power on/off sequence with this board like in this video th-cam.com/video/XJKodmZihbk/w-d-xo.html
Blender Wiki Ok. I'm glad you are not having problems. I think a lot of the problems is in what sort of PSU you use. If you us a decent quality PSU you should have no problems with you TB6560 :)
Hi Willy, great video. I have one question about the software. Is it possible to run the motors individually and at specific speeds? I have a project that is perfect for the set up you used, but it is not a cnc.
Frank Hiebert hi, yes you can run the motors seperatly and at any speed you want really. But you will need to write a new Arduino sketch (code) to do it.
Frank Hiebert Hmm, there is a lot of good recourses on the world wide web :) but the easyest maybe to find a sketch on github that is suiteble for your use. Can I ask what functions you want and how you want the motors to be controlled (speed adjustment?, end stops, limit switches, push buttons?) and stuff like that. There is a lot of free sketches you can use and costumize since Arduino is open source.
Willy what version are you running on GRBL? I hooked up mine just like you have and all I get is a hissing sound from my motors. I tried playing with the steps since I had mine setup as full step with the cnc shield with no luck. I eventually burned out a board when I messing with the current dip switched on the tb6560. Any tips on whats going on? I ordered another board to try to do this as the cnc shield gets over heated with my nema 23 motors.
Greetings, thanks for the video. The vendor says that both bipolar and unipolar motors can be connected to the TB6560 driver. The question is whether when connecting a unipolar motor in bipolar mode, I do not lose torque? Can I still configure the microstep modes? Is the engine not wasted?
Hi and thanks for watching :) There should be no loss in power or tourqe when connecting a unipolar motor in bipolar connection 👍😀 And microstep also no difference
Great Job... Your work is far better than other for understanding..... Could you please tell How can I work with limit switches.? It shows alarm or stop the process even when the limit switch in untouch
Samuel .G.Larmie Thanks a lot man. I realy appreciate the feedback. Let me know if there is something else in the CNC series you would like to see a video about. :-)
Alright buddy. i will definitely let you know. I design and build CNC machines, but I use higher end Drivers from Gecko etc. I have always wanted to try our Arduino to drive my motors for small machines like plotters and drag knife CNC's. I will watch all you videos to learn all i can. Thank you very much for the detailed info and nice graphics you add to your videos.
So how good is this TB6560 driver ? I mean by the endurance of that driver, is that any problem like damage after several use? I'm curious to know because I'm running out the budget for buying the driver, this TB6560 is a lot cheaper than TB6600, I also want to run my NEMA 23
I have used the tb6560's without any issues since I built the machine 2-3 years ago. They still work as they did when new, never had to change them. I do have a good fan cooling system blowing air over the cooling blocks of the tb6560's so I would recommend that if you use them 👍
This is the point where most newbie fail😄😁😁 actually they use a4988 that is very weak low current driver while drv8825 can be re placed because it has same layout as the a4988. Drv8825 is as power that at highest current it delivers a lot of current and makes my nema 23s to heat up... Well you can try those drivers...
if you put together x1 and x2 you dont have a way to calibrate de table unless you do it by hand... cnc can be easily get out of square.. its a good practice to put limit switches and auto calibrate de table every power on and within long works... i have nema34 motors and even they can loose one step some time.
CapApollo ok, I have waited to connect the limit switches until I'm sure how I'm going to connect and set them up. It would be nice to have auto zeroing on the x axis :-)
Manufactured TB6560 based drives are not the best. That is due to how the current is set on them. This issue was addressed with the TB6600 drives. Get yourself some v1.2 TB6600 motor drives. I run those on my machine and they're great. You have to know how to set the current on them though. I use an ammeter on one coil, and adjust the drive when it is holding on a peak step. I can hit 200 IPM using 10 TPI lead screws. So that's 2,000 RPM. Which is not bad for drives that cost $8 a piece.
TB6600s are so cheap and so much better they're worth upgrading to. They are going up in price lately though. I have ones like this one www.aliexpress.com/item/1pcs-TB6600-4-5A-Stepper-motor-drive-stepper-motor-driver-board-single-axis-controller-TB6600-New/32752308150.html?
Hello..i have follow your wiring diagram in your video step by step..but my stepper motor not moving at all.. I use arduino uno, nema 23,grbl 1.1 and ugs..before i use cnc shield v3 it work fine..can you help me....thanks
Hello this is a very good video how to do it. i visit also your website , you are a fantastic man end i love all your projects when a stepper motor datasheet gives : Rate voltage 2.4 volts en on how many volts it will work fine can you give mi an answer please i am new with all of this
O sensei... you are AWSOME!!!! (with a scream)... kindly answer one query.. what do you prefer, a USB configured breakout board like the one you used here ( Arduino) or other parallel port configured boards. because its debated that USB configured boards are not that effective for real time operations like CNC. whats your take on this?
Hassan Sultan Hi, and thank you very much! :) I have more experience with USB like I use on my CNC machine so I have to say that I prefere those. But I have heard that the serial ones is more stable and has less interference from electronic noise and stuff. That said I have not had any problems with interference on my system. It also depends on what software you are using i suppose. Hope this help you out :) and again, thanks for your feedback 👍
HI! I found the answer of my previous question.. I hope you could help me on would it be okay to use different sizes of stepper motor like 3 nema 17 and 1 nema 23?
hi, i breaking my head over my DIY CNC, it runs, has to little torque. Use CNC shield, arduino, Nema17. Replaced everyting, upped the power 12 -> 36V. Adjusted the driver pots.... nothing really helps, still can hold the steppers by hand. Strange because if i see youtube lots of people build these, maybe they dont not tell about all the problem they ran into :-). Think i might try this also, have to downgrade my power supply again. Is you setup stronger now ? or can you sill hold it by hand ? Thanks for this video !
Hi, Im sorry you have problems. When i first built the machine I had it running on the cnc shield and NEMA17. Many did it on youtube and spoke of no problems but It was way to weak, like yours. Then I upgraded to the tb6560 and NEMA23's, It is so much stronger it realy can not compare at all. I am sure your nema17's also will be a lot stronger if you use the tb6560's or tb6600's
@@WillysGarageNorway wel i orderd the drivers and a new PSU, because drivers are input 24v advised i think. i hope i can keep te 17's because it gets a realy big machine :-)
hello video is great and I did everything right, and I did not like the cnc shield on the arduino, small coolers playing with potentiometers cost me some burned drivers, etc. I have one question if it's not a problem to answer me .. there are always more stepped motors under the power supply when they are not in operation
Hi and thanks :) you can set holding power on the stepper motors when they are not running. This is to keep them in place when they are not recieving g code. I changed my cnc shield to TB6560, they work great and are strong
@@WillysGarageNorway hello ... I managed to solve the problem, it was a big deal Amperase my stepper motors work up to max 2 Amps. thank you for your answers and advice ... all the best.
Hi and thanks for watching! The PSU is 24 Volt dc, so the drivers will get approx 24 volts, I think it will use these 24 volts out to the steppers also and I recon the amp is decided by the size of the stepper and resistance on the lead screw but maximum 15 Amps +/÷ in this setup. Does this answer your question?
How did you correct the direction of the 2 X axis motor that was spinning the opposite direction? Can you pls explain so if I face that issue I might be able to handle it :) thank you
@@WillysGarageNorway thank you so much!! Your video is very inspiring and has a greater clarity than any of the videos i have seen on TH-cam regarding CNC. Thanks again for your quick resolution :)
This is a great tutorial! Much appreciated. Have you tried using the limit switches with the arduino board? I have been having problems with mine giving false triggers from electrical noise. Even with shielded wire.
Jason Wisser I have not yet wired up my limit switches. I have heard there could be some problems with electrical noise when using them. I will wire the up in a future video. Have you tried to hook up an external power supply 12volt to the Arduino it self? Just a tip I have read about.. Thanks for watching!!!
I followed every direction you gave and everything works great. The only issue is the Y axis only spins in one direction. I flashed the Arduino using grbl and I'm controlling it with UGCS. I verified all the wires are plugged in correctly, there aren't any opens in the lines. I switched to a different driver and motor and it does the same thing. only spins one way. any suggestions would be appreciated

Hi Willy! I have a chineese 3020 cnc that I would like to run with an Arduino and GRBL. Can I run it without any changes to the software if I hook up 4 TB6560 (It is a 4 axix 3020) with an Uno like you have done?
In theory yes, but Arduino UNO only have 3 axis. XYZ-axis. But you have to change the software settings so that the stepper motors runs in the right speed. You may ask me if you have any questions :)
Then I would go for a mach3 or something. I dont have any experience with it thoo. Watch my GRBL config video for tips on changing the settings. And thanks for watching :)
I have 3 nema 17s and the same drivers and shield you had. If I wanted to upgrade *only* my X axis to a nema 23 can I wire the tb6560 into the shield and run the 2 nema 17's on the shield?? or do I have to buy all new drivers ? SoI want a nema 23 X axis, nema 17 Y axis nema 17 Z axis. Can I keep the shield and add the tb6560? Confused. Thank you Very good video.
Jeff Iscool Hi and thanks. There is no problem keeping the shield and adding one tb6560. You can use the pin outs marked x.step/dir on the left upper side on the shield. But you also need powersupply for the tb6560 👍🏻
@@WillysGarageNorway I watched a video. He was connecting GND cable to left side GND slot. Is it makes any differences? I am a mechanical engineer so i do not understand electronics. :(
I have question,in the video you wired two X axis stepper motors with two TB6560 ,What if I wire two stepper with just one TB6560 ? is that enough for steppers in the X axis ?
Mohamed Amine BIDA Yes, I know it can be done. But you will have to be sure that the controllers or stepper drivers are ratet for the current two motors will draw when they are connected in parallell. So it can be done but personaly I think its wise to use one stepper driver for one stepper :-)
Hi Willy, Thanks a ton for this video, I am from India, a non-elctrical background commerce grad. but my fascination is with experimenting new things like CNC router and laser. The machine that moves by itself. Like Phantom who walks! Remember the childhood comics? actually , last month I purchased 3 nos. TB6560 . I was excited when it came, but I had no idea of "Decay Setting". Now I am clear. You did a Arduino Uno connection. But I have a Mach 5 Board that runs on MACH3 program. You tested with Arduino board. Now I don't know how to run an Arduino program. If you shall help me on programming, it would be worth appreciating. One question, if I run it via this Arduino board, how long can it be functioning, let's say cutting a relief of Poet Rabindranath Tagore on wood? again if I have to burn via a laser diode, then how long it can be workable. should I give it some rest interval? Yet again, does it depend on size of the machine? Let's say, my machine built size is 3 ft x 2 ft. Almost you may get tired by reading my questions, please pardon for long questions, as I am most eagerly waiting for your reply. My e-mail id is : calcuttacity@gmail.com------------------ :)
Thanks Willy for your quick reply. :) Forgot to tell you my name---Adin....I shall start develop my machine, may be in new year 2019 launch is possible.
Hi, as long as the TB6560's gets cooling when they are running and the stepper motors them self don't get to warm there is no limit how long you can run a g-code program. You can leave it going for month's :-) BUT always a good idea to stay and watch because you never know what may happen to the cut. As with the laser diode I don't have any experience with that so I don't know if there are a time limit on the use. So with both Mach3 and Arduino you can run as long as you want if you have enough cooling.
Good Morning, thanks for the replay but on the datasheet it is 2.4Volt en 2.4 Amps on witch volt i can run the 3 steppermotors : JKM JK42HM48 NEMA17 0.9° 42 Hybrid Stepper Motor Two Phase 48mm 4.8kg. on banggood Thanks Fourstar
That rating means that at 2.4 volts the motor will draw 2.4 amps so at 24VDC setting the current limit is vital. I run Nema 23's at 36VDC and set the current at 3.3 amps.
Hi, i want to build cnc router and i will use the same stepper motors 4x nema 23, 2.8A and 4x drivers tb6560 with arduino uno, but one friend told me that i should use bigger PSU, about 20A, and i see that yours is 14.6A, and i want to ask does 14.6A PSU working fine or i have to use bigger amperage? Tnx 😊✌
@@WillysGarageNorway aha.. thanks. And someone also reccomend me bigger drivers and 24v psu, can you tell me did it work well with tb6560 and 24v psu, and with what speed you cut wood. Thanks again 🙏😊
No problem :) I use the 24vdc 14 amps psu with the tb6560 and have had no problems with this setup. Of course, if you want higher feeds and speeds you need to upgrade things. Maby tb6600 or something 👍
farooq Mohammad abd Kamrca Hi, I ended up on a 1/4 microstepping for my stepper motors. 1.8 amps Stop current 20% Decay 0% And this works great for my machine
You got to be careful with what you are buying... I have bought some tb6600 from a Chinese supplier and they don't behave like tb6600... They also loose steps randomly or put in some more...
You may be right there but I really wanted a solution that did not give 100 % all the time, this way the units will last longer. The tb6560 were not expencive. But maby in a later build I will use those. Thanks for watching and thanks for the tip
Jay-R Deleon You can use it but then you have to adjust the current switches on the TB 6560's. 5 amps is a bit low to run the Nema23 effectively since they have a max current of 4-5amps each..
Shao Kahn No problem :) I have made some changes to the website now so things like diagrams should be more accessible. Http://www.Willysgaragenorway.no

Your explanation is very clear
Thanks 😀
I've connected with stepper drivers DM556. while I connect the Z and Y, everything goes fine, once I connect the X, and I jog, the X axis always goes in the same direction.
Any idea why?
hello sir, i like your video it contain every in the video more understable, you have explain each and every thing by step by step. but i need some help for you which software will be use. and by using this method can be made cnc wire bender
Amit Verma hi and thanks. Have you seen my video on software installation? th-cam.com/video/ud75Zdolh-M/w-d-xo.html
Let me know if that helps 👍👍😀
I am glad I found this video, I was about to make the same mistake!
I'm glad the video helped you :) 👍🤘
Big time, thank you, saved me 40 euros!
can you give description of the power supply you used for the motor drivers?
24V 14.6A Power Supply For CNC and 3D-printers
Check this one:

Nice video, did you put fuse on power suply input as recommended on TB6560 datasheet? Did you had some issue with power on/off sequence?
Blender Wiki Hi, thanks. I didn't put a fuse on the power input of my TB6560's, but there is a fuse inn my power supply. That way the PSU and the TB6560's are protected. I have not had any problems with the power up. Do you experience problems?
No i am testing right now the TB6560, same board like yours, but few people point out a issue with power on/off sequence with this board like in this video
th-cam.com/video/XJKodmZihbk/w-d-xo.html
Blender Wiki Ok. I'm glad you are not having problems. I think a lot of the problems is in what sort of PSU you use. If you us a decent quality PSU you should have no problems with you TB6560 :)
good to know after few month you have no issue
I was thinking to put a MF-R300 fuse in power supply input
Hi Willy, great video. I have one question about the software. Is it possible to run the motors individually and at specific speeds? I have a project that is perfect for the set up you used, but it is not a cnc.
Frank Hiebert hi, yes you can run the motors seperatly and at any speed you want really. But you will need to write a new Arduino sketch (code) to do it.
Not familiar with Arduino sketch, how would you suggest I learn how to do that?
Frank Hiebert Hmm, there is a lot of good recourses on the world wide web :) but the easyest maybe to find a sketch on github that is suiteble for your use. Can I ask what functions you want and how you want the motors to be controlled (speed adjustment?, end stops, limit switches, push buttons?) and stuff like that. There is a lot of free sketches you can use and costumize since Arduino is open source.
Willy what version are you running on GRBL? I hooked up mine just like you have and all I get is a hissing sound from my motors. I tried playing with the steps since I had mine setup as full step with the cnc shield with no luck. I eventually burned out a board when I messing with the current dip switched on the tb6560. Any tips on whats going on? I ordered another board to try to do this as the cnc shield gets over heated with my nema 23 motors.
I am running grbl v1.1 - have you figured out what the problem was?
Why don't use tb6600 stepper motor driver? I think its batter than it
Greetings, thanks for the video. The vendor says that both bipolar and unipolar motors can be connected to the TB6560 driver. The question is whether when connecting a unipolar motor in bipolar mode, I do not lose torque? Can I still configure the microstep modes? Is the engine not wasted?
Hi and thanks for watching :)
There should be no loss in power or tourqe when connecting a unipolar motor in bipolar connection 👍😀 And microstep also no difference
Great Job... Your work is far better than other for understanding..... Could you please tell How can I work with limit switches.? It shows alarm or stop the process even when the limit switch in untouch
Hi, it sounds like its something with the settings om GRBL. But I have not installed my limit swithes yet som I'm not sure 👍
Bonjour, where and how connect axes end stop ? Thanks for your share .
Thanks for the great explanation. Can you please tell, why there are two motors for x? This has made me slightly confused. Thanks! :-)
Pankaj Vig if you se my video where I show my design you can see that I have two stepper motors on the z axis. Someone may cal this the y axis tho 👍😀
WillysGarageNorway thanks!
I just subscribed to ur channel. I really like your videos. Especially this CNC series.
Samuel .G.Larmie Thanks a lot man. I realy appreciate the feedback. Let me know if there is something else in the CNC series you would like to see a video about. :-)
Alright buddy. i will definitely let you know. I design and build CNC machines, but I use higher end Drivers from Gecko etc. I have always wanted to try our Arduino to drive my motors for small machines like plotters and drag knife CNC's. I will watch all you videos to learn all i can. Thank you very much for the detailed info and nice graphics you add to your videos.
Samuel, how many have you made? Just curious. I made one too.
So how good is this TB6560 driver ? I mean by the endurance of that driver, is that any problem like damage after several use? I'm curious to know because I'm running out the budget for buying the driver, this TB6560 is a lot cheaper than TB6600, I also want to run my NEMA 23
I have used the tb6560's without any issues since I built the machine 2-3 years ago. They still work as they did when new, never had to change them.
I do have a good fan cooling system blowing air over the cooling blocks of the tb6560's so I would recommend that if you use them 👍
@@WillysGarageNorway can you share me your driver configuration on NEMA 23 for the microstep, current, decay, etc ?
I think I use the settings I set up in this video

@@WillysGarageNorway so just like in this video? Ok ok thank you very much sir for the Information
No problem :) Let me know if you have any problems with the set up 👍
Could you share about the firmware to upload to the arduino? And what the software to run gcode?
Dwi Prabowo hi, I will make a video about configurating the GRBL. Check this video out also: th-cam.com/video/ud75Zdolh-M/w-d-xo.html
Hi Willys, ok nice link... I am waiting for your new video about configuring GRBL
This is the point where most newbie fail😄😁😁 actually they use a4988 that is very weak low current driver while drv8825 can be re placed because it has same layout as the a4988. Drv8825 is as power that at highest current it delivers a lot of current and makes my nema 23s to heat up... Well you can try those drivers...
Is this driver heat up easily?because i use l298n and it will heat up easily
if you put together x1 and x2 you dont have a way to calibrate de table unless you do it by hand... cnc can be easily get out of square.. its a good practice to put limit switches and auto calibrate de table every power on and within long works... i have nema34 motors and even they can loose one step some time.
CapApollo Thanks for the tip. Do you use Arduino?
no... mach3 or linux cnc and parallel port.
CapApollo ok, I have waited to connect the limit switches until I'm sure how I'm going to connect and set them up. It would be nice to have auto zeroing on the x axis :-)
Manufactured TB6560 based drives are not the best. That is due to how the current is set on them. This issue was addressed with the TB6600 drives. Get yourself some v1.2 TB6600 motor drives. I run those on my machine and they're great. You have to know how to set the current on them though. I use an ammeter on one coil, and adjust the drive when it is holding on a peak step. I can hit 200 IPM using 10 TPI lead screws. So that's 2,000 RPM. Which is not bad for drives that cost $8 a piece.
Paul Frederick Sounds like a nice driver. Maby I will try those on my next machine.
TB6600s are so cheap and so much better they're worth upgrading to. They are going up in price lately though. I have ones like this one www.aliexpress.com/item/1pcs-TB6600-4-5A-Stepper-motor-drive-stepper-motor-driver-board-single-axis-controller-TB6600-New/32752308150.html?

Hello this is a very good video how to do it.
i visit also your website , you are a fantastic man end i love all your projects
when a stepper motor datasheet gives : Rate voltage 2.4 volts en on how many volts it will work fine
can you give mi an answer please i am new with all of this
Hi and thank you very much. Do you mean it is rated 2.4 Ampere?
O sensei... you are AWSOME!!!! (with a scream)... kindly answer one query.. what do you prefer, a USB configured breakout board like the one you used here ( Arduino) or other parallel port configured boards. because its debated that USB configured boards are not that effective for real time operations like CNC. whats your take on this?
Hassan Sultan Hi, and thank you very much! :) I have more experience with USB like I use on my CNC machine so I have to say that I prefere those. But I have heard that the serial ones is more stable and has less interference from electronic noise and stuff. That said I have not had any problems with interference on my system. It also depends on what software you are using i suppose. Hope this help you out :) and again, thanks for your feedback 👍
HI! I found the answer of my previous question.. I hope you could help me on would it be okay to use different sizes of stepper motor like 3 nema 17 and 1 nema 23?
Yes, no problem running different steppers as long as they have there own stepper driver 👍
hi, i breaking my head over my DIY CNC, it runs, has to little torque. Use CNC shield, arduino, Nema17. Replaced everyting, upped the power 12 -> 36V. Adjusted the driver pots.... nothing really helps, still can hold the steppers by hand. Strange because if i see youtube lots of people build these, maybe they dont not tell about all the problem they ran into :-). Think i might try this also, have to downgrade my power supply again. Is you setup stronger now ? or can you sill hold it by hand ? Thanks for this video !
Hi, Im sorry you have problems. When i first built the machine I had it running on the cnc shield and NEMA17. Many did it on youtube and spoke of no problems but It was way to weak, like yours. Then I upgraded to the tb6560 and NEMA23's, It is so much stronger it realy can not compare at all. I am sure your nema17's also will be a lot stronger if you use the tb6560's or tb6600's
I think you stil might be able to use the 36v PSU
@@WillysGarageNorway wel i orderd the drivers and a new PSU, because drivers are input 24v advised i think. i hope i can keep te 17's because it gets a realy big machine :-)
I think you can try, make room to change them in the future 👍😀
@@WillysGarageNorway we see !
hello video is great and I did everything right, and I did not like the cnc shield on the arduino, small coolers playing with potentiometers cost me some burned drivers, etc. I have one question if it's not a problem to answer me .. there are always more stepped motors under the power supply when they are not in operation
Hi and thanks :) you can set holding power on the stepper motors when they are not running. This is to keep them in place when they are not recieving g code. I changed my cnc shield to TB6560, they work great and are strong

@@taclackrivoglavac3977 thanks and good luck 👍😁
HI thanks for this very helpful video. i still have some doubt ,how much volt/amp each driver getting from this power supply ?
Hi and thanks for watching! The PSU is 24 Volt dc, so the drivers will get approx 24 volts, I think it will use these 24 volts out to the steppers also and I recon the amp is decided by the size of the stepper and resistance on the lead screw but maximum 15 Amps +/÷ in this setup.
Does this answer your question?
How did you correct the direction of the 2 X axis motor that was spinning the opposite direction? Can you pls explain so if I face that issue I might be able to handle it :) thank you
You can try to change over the wireing on the motor that has the wrong direction 👍
@@WillysGarageNorway thank you so much!! Your video is very inspiring and has a greater clarity than any of the videos i have seen on TH-cam regarding CNC. Thanks again for your quick resolution :)
This is a great tutorial! Much appreciated. Have you tried using the limit switches with the arduino board? I have been having problems with mine giving false triggers from electrical noise. Even with shielded wire.
Jason Wisser I have not yet wired up my limit switches. I have heard there could be some problems with electrical noise when using them. I will wire the up in a future video. Have you tried to hook up an external power supply 12volt to the Arduino it self? Just a tip I have read about.. Thanks for watching!!!
I followed every direction you gave and everything works great. The only issue is the Y axis only spins in one direction. I flashed the Arduino using grbl and I'm controlling it with UGCS. I verified all the wires are plugged in correctly, there aren't any opens in the lines. I switched to a different driver and motor and it does the same thing. only spins one way. any suggestions would be appreciated

In theory yes, but Arduino UNO only have 3 axis. XYZ-axis. But you have to change the software settings so that the stepper motors runs in the right speed. You may ask me if you have any questions :)
Ok so no really hard "hacking". Do you have any suggestion if I want to use the 4th axis?

I have question,in the video you wired two X axis stepper motors with two TB6560 ,What if I wire two stepper with just one TB6560 ? is that enough for steppers in the X axis ?
You can not control two steppers from one controller You will have to get one controller for each stepper..
I have seen some people doing that ,this is way I asked , after all even inventables in there xcarve use one driver for two motors
Mohamed Amine BIDA Yes, I know it can be done. But you will have to be sure that the controllers or stepper drivers are ratet for the current two motors will draw when they are connected in parallell. So it can be done but personaly I think its wise to use one stepper driver for one stepper :-)
You can run two motors off one drive, but it is not smart.
Hi Willy, Thanks a ton for this video, I am from India, a non-elctrical background commerce grad. but my fascination is with experimenting new things like CNC router and laser. The machine that moves by itself. Like Phantom who walks! Remember the childhood comics?
actually , last month I purchased 3 nos. TB6560 . I was excited when it came, but I had no idea of "Decay Setting". Now I am clear. You did a Arduino Uno connection. But I have a Mach 5 Board that runs on MACH3 program. You tested with Arduino board. Now I don't know how to run an Arduino program. If you shall help me on programming, it would be worth appreciating. One question, if I run it via this Arduino board, how long can it be functioning, let's say cutting a relief of Poet Rabindranath Tagore on wood? again if I have to burn via a laser diode, then how long it can be workable. should I give it some rest interval?
Yet again, does it depend on size of the machine? Let's say, my machine built size is 3 ft x 2 ft. Almost you may get tired by reading my questions, please pardon for long questions, as I am most eagerly waiting for your reply. My e-mail id is : calcuttacity@gmail.com------------------ :)
Thanks Willy for your quick reply. :) Forgot to tell you my name---Adin....I shall start develop my machine, may be in new year 2019 launch is possible.
Hi, as long as the TB6560's gets cooling when they are running and the stepper motors them self don't get to warm there is no limit how long you can run a g-code program. You can leave it going for month's :-) BUT always a good idea to stay and watch because you never know what may happen to the cut. As with the laser diode I don't have any experience with that so I don't know if there are a time limit on the use.
So with both Mach3 and Arduino you can run as long as you want if you have enough cooling.

Good Morning,
thanks for the replay but on the datasheet it is 2.4Volt en 2.4 Amps
on witch volt i can run the 3 steppermotors :
JKM JK42HM48 NEMA17 0.9° 42 Hybrid Stepper Motor Two Phase 48mm 4.8kg. on banggood
Thanks
Fourstar
Since its a NEMA17, you can run it with 12-24volts. Maby its a typ-o and should say 24 volts?
What sort of stepper motor driver are you going to use?
That rating means that at 2.4 volts the motor will draw 2.4 amps so at 24VDC setting the current limit is vital. I run Nema 23's at 36VDC and set the current at 3.3 amps.
if i connect 3 stepper motor driver then all pin of arduino is to be filled then how to add extrapin to connect solenoid pin have any idea.
