    You are right on the assumption that current is dependent on the error. So if motor sits right where it should be the current will be quite low. That is why they will usually run cooler (and you will save some energy in the process too).

    Thank you for sharing. I was having trouble understanding the "open/close" loop side but now I understand that the cheaper way to hybrid steppers is this way. The return side of the motor is just an error condition with no return positioning available. You made mention of possible use of the rs232 side, but it really looks more like ft232 than interactive 232. Ft stands for file transfer. The difference in return/settings compared to other drivers is you get what you pay for. Again.... thanks

    You're correct about the amp setting in the software, however if you chose to run a motor that had a lower amp rating, that is where the importance of being able to set the current output will come in. While it's true that the driver is "intelligent" and will vary the current as needed, they WILL send more current than a motor is potentially rated for in attempt to make up for the felt resistance sent back to the driver COM port. More or less the setting should be no more than the motors highest current rating as a top end governor.

    • @FrancoCNC
      @FrancoCNC  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi. You have to make sure you have enough amperage. You can have a single power supply as long as you can provide enough amperage to all of your drives. Divide the wattage of your power supply by the voltage it delivers and you will have the amperage. A 350Watt 36Volt power supply will provide about 9.7Amps.

    If you really want to get the best performance out of these I wold suggest researching how to tune control loops. I was curious if these drivers could be tuned. The big selling point of more expensive options like the DMM drivers or the ClearPaths is that their software will auto tune the motor under load. The leadshine software you have to manually tune the PID loops which can be a pain for first timers. And not very many DIY types know that PID tuning is necessary to reach the precision and performance potential of a closed loop system. People see closed loop and the cheap price and think it will be easy to setup. However spending the time to learn how to tune them can be very beneficial when it comes to matching the performance of much more expensive options. Im really surprised the eBay seller does not include information on the software, because without it there is no way to tune the PIDs. I'm guessing they are setup to max out the potential power of the motor when making corrections to the position loop, because those are some crazy powerful motors they are selling. And I would guess 99% of these motors will be coupled to ballscrews which acts as torque multiplier thus minimizing overshoots in the default PID loop.

    • @fedeyoutub
      @fedeyoutub 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, you're right, on ebay / amazon and even on many sites, they sell engines, drivers, and more without knowing anything, often they are even fake leadshine or counterfeit, product random codes, photos of other engines, a real disaster. it's true that you save, but the risk is high. I buy them on ebay because I can't afford the clearpaths, too expensive really ... the only positive thing is that I pay with paypal, so if something goes wrong I open a dispute.

    I see the videos from 2017 but what the f thanks for the due diligence awesome on the serial you should be able to use the terminal server like putty to connect to the controller software is great now that you have found it documentation is irreplaceable great you found it,, I noticed recent comments from my experience if you're going to mess with the holding torque consider your working scenarios less holding of an access means is we're talking another axis we can pull it out of position... Depends on the rigidity of machine but if you find tolerance is an issue sometimes holding torque or current on the axis is needed to be higher.... Because you're talking about close loop it's important to build a system that can be effectively controlled..... Peace

    Closed loop steppers are a variation of servomotors (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servomotor). They use stepper motors to rotate the shaft rather than a simple DC or even AC motors in "regular" servo.
    In typical servo design the output of the encoder tells the controlling computer the position of the motor shaft or carriage on the linear rail and the computer spins the motor by controlling direction of rotation and duration of the power cycle until the desired position is reached.
    Open loop steppers receive a pulse of current in specific direction which rotates the shaft by a few degrees, based on the design of a specific stepper motor. A sequence of those pulses in rapid succession makes the stepper motor appear to turn continuously. Variation of the frequency of the pulses appears as variable rotation speed.
    But the computer sending pulses to the open loop stepper motor does not have the feedback from the motor if the shaft actually moved. So if something blocked the rotation or the pulses came faster than the motor could rotate, the machine would "lose steps"
    Close loop stepper drivers take the feedback from the encoder in the motor and repeat the pulses if necessary until the encoder indicates that the shaft is in correct position. Some drivers can buffer bursts of pulses and move the shaft at the rate the motor can handle.
    Note that the computer sending G-code commands to your DIY CNC still does not know if the shaft of the motor actually rotated as it requested because the closed-loop exists only between stepper and the driver.
    This is where the main difference between real servo and close-loop stepper drivers resides.
    In the real servo applications the closed loop exists between computer and the encoder on the motor (or linear rail/actuator assembly). The application controlling the machine knows exact position of the shaft or linear rail/actuator.
    The close loop driver can only (at this time) send an error signal, which some DIY CNC software can read to at least halt the job to prevent damage to the tool.
    One can expect that in time the close-loop drivers will be communicating with the CNC software creating a true closed loop CNC machine, entering a whole new level of accuracy that could even compensate for mechanical imperfections of the mechanical components of the machine.
    Last note: There are servomotors available that use AC or DC motors but act just like stepper motors and the drivers for those connect to the CNC controller just like regular stepper drivers accepting pulse and direction input.
    see th-cam.com/video/dDxyaoYXxY4/w-d-xo.html
    AC/DC motors hold multiple advantages over stepper motors but the control circuitry is much more complicated (=higher cost, lower reliability)

  • @johnward5890
    @johnward5890 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    The driver has a bride rectifier on the input from the power supply Transformer that changes the AC voltage in to DC before it get to the driver circuit. Using bridge Rectifier on any dc circuit allows that circuit to apply AC or DC to it with the DC being the only voltage coming out of the bridge rectifier, the DC will not be rectified and flow to the dc side unimpeded.

    • @FrancoCNC
      @FrancoCNC  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi. You have to adjust the steps per rev using the software - no dip switches on my drives. I believe the factory default setting was 4000 pulses per revolution. But, that's just a guess as it's been a while since I set them up.

    Hey Franco
    I recently bought a StepperOnline CL57T controller and NEMA23 closed loop stepper. It seems to be a clone of the Leadshine driver as well, in fact the user manual states "designed by StepperOnline, manufactured by Leadshine". Anyway I had downloaded SO's tuning software and it appears to be the exact same as the Leadshine, but without any documentation it's pretty hard to decipher. The support document you have in your dropbox is very helpful.
    THANKS!!

    I wanted to ask you what type of connection you are using between the computer and the cnc breakout board, USB or parallel DB-25?
    I'm trying to build my own 4x8 cnc and have found conflicting info.
    I'm guessing that having a closed loop should increase the need for a lower latency on USB comm ports.

    Running higher voltage motors.
    Higher voltage requiers less current to achive the same or higher torque/wattage in a device.
    Voltage x Current = Watts
    You can use thiner gauge wire and longer runs with less current and higher voltage and AC power.

    Hello, thank you for your video and files. I'm about to buy 86HBS120 + HBS860H. 4 of them. The seller is suggesting a 800w 60V transformer. I don't know much about it. My worry is if I would be able to run the motors at 1000 rpm when needed. Also I couldn't find much information about microstepping and closed loop system like this one. I assume that microstepping only helps in reducing vibrations and you can't count on it for positionning. The encoder is said to be 1000 line but is this of any use? If you could provide some feedback about the motor capabilities (power, closed loop, microstepping) I would appreciate. Thanks in advance

      Check this out: th-cam.com/video/5D7px0r0pUE/w-d-xo.html
      The 1000 line encoder will actually produce 4000 pulses per revolution. Steppers don't make great spindle motors as they lose their torque as the RPM is increased. But, I think you will probably be OK at 1000 RPM. Especially, if you go with closed loop steppers.

  • @nedgligich
    @nedgligich 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Current.
    The current or Amp's setting is a current limit, this limits how much current the driver sends to the stepper.
    Think of this as a safety.
    You can power all your steppers/drivers with one large 100A power supply, if you where to deliver 100A to the steppers and they where opperating under the correct load or strain they will only use what they need.
    If you have a big heavy Z axis and the motor strugles to lift it or if you had a 1/2" endmill and had a to high feed rate, the stepper will draw much more current more then likely burning out the driver mosfets or the stepper windings.
    By adding a current limit to the drivers they will behave like a shear pin to protect you drivers and steppers from being damaged when being overloaded or during a crash.

      I have. They look really nice. But, by the time you buy the motor, upgrade the precision and buy all of the cables and stuff, they start to get pricey. I think the closed loop steppers are a better bang for the buck (in my opinion).

    Hi Franco,
    Thank you for your helpful video.
    The Leadshine tuning software does not seem to work under Windows 10. My multiport USB-to-RS232 adaptor has TX and RD data leds and no data is being sent. All ports work fine from Realterm. The software works fine on an old XP machine.
    I just recieved a package (Jan 2018) of motors, drives and power supplies from Fasttobuy2012 , two 8Nm motors and one 12Nm. The 12Nm motor arrived with the shaft locked, which I'm working with the vendor to resolve. I suspect it took a knock in shipping and the armature is binding on the stator.

    • @Robinlarsson83
      @Robinlarsson83 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      At least on the closed loop steppers I have there is a 6 wire connection, EA+, EA-, EB+, EB-, +5V, GND, so 2 of them are simply power to the sensor. I would assume the signals are 5V as well since the sensor runs on 5V.

    @jimgeorge6220 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I noticed this is about a year old and am wondering how you find the closed loop system to be working? lately, I'm working with a lot of two-sided routing which has been exposing the backlash faults of my machine. These faults are pretty minor and I feel that given the overall size of my router (60"x120") it's almost not worth mentioning. In my case, a closed loop driver would, I believe, have no effect on my cutting since the effect I'm seeing is outside the loop. On the other hand, if I had a linear scale on the axis's I should get pretty exact cutting since the scale would place the backlash inside the loop. Just wondering if your drivers are living up to expectations.

    • @FrancoCNC

It flushes current throw the A+ A- B+B- and does not not give Green or Red light . The 60v ac is the recomended power but it does not seem to work.

      actually the driver power circuit uses an ntc 14d 301k and a glass fuse of only 5 A . That means you actually cant power it over 400 watt i thing . You should also check the bearings as they seem to be the basic nema 34 . the transformer they recomend is 300VA so they recomend to power it with just 240-260 watt taking into account their ac dc power circuit board. If you had opened up the driver , you would have seen the transistors beneath the board that power the motor widings. Mine were poorly solidered. I suppose you have wirred the pending and the alarm signal to your control board.

When wired everything I could only bring the z axis to move under Mach3 the x and y didn't move. But if I wire the x to. Pin 6+7 of the z axis at the breakout board then x moved very good and the same with y... Always what's wired to i 6+7 at the breakout board works good the rest not. So I must look is the board broken or does the software not work as it should???

But I didn't find one proof for that theory z is on every menu set the same as x and y. At how many steps did you set your pins at the case of the motor driver 400 is default i think about 1600 to 3200 is best my Nema 34 have 12Nm and are really big and strong for the Optimum Bf16 Mill it's like a mini mill from Sieg 550W is the Spindel motor.

    • @andymoore9365

      Yes. There's a little confusion here about rs232 cable, serial cable etc. You don't need the rs232 cable to drive the motor - it's just for tuning. You send step and direction signals to the driver's input terminals using individual wires connected to your breakout board/motion control board. The driver and motor are connected to each other with 2 cables - a 4-wire cable to drive the motor, and a 6-wire cable to read the encoder signals. The 6-wire cable comes out of the motor with a 9-pin D-sub connector on it, which is often used for rs232 standard, but in this case is nothing to do with the rs232 port - it's not a serial cable, it just looks like one. If you want to get the software and tune the motor, you need an rs232 cable with a 9-pin D-sub connector on one end, and what looks like an ethernet connector on the other but is, I think, a 6-pin RJ-25 connector (see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_connector). Hope that helps.

      I got a PM-30MV and I am debating how to CNC it. I noticed one of the greman machines where I work uses a linear encoder for servo feedback, like you would find on a DRO for a manual machine. This stragety seems briliant to me because any backlash is taken out of the equation. Even a high precision servo is only as good as the mechanical system that it is attached to.

      True. You may be able to find a way to use linear encoders - that would be cool. My thoughts are this: try to minimize physical backlash and use standard encoders/motors/drivers. I'm working on a kit for this machine that has double nuts for X and Y which will be adjustable with set screws. You'll be able to add as much pre-load as you like on the ball nuts to take out the back lash. But...there will always be some back lash due to clearance in the slide ways and torque windup in the couplings. That being said, I'm pretty sure we'll be able to get under .0015" on X and Y. Maybe even less than .001" depending on how tight the ways are.

    The benefit of using AC instead of DC.
    Switch Mode Power Supplies produce DC power and are cheap because they dont use lots of copper and are easy to manufacture, but fail easy.
    Transformers are Solid and weigh a lot due to the copper windings and the ferrite or steal core, the quality is based on the winding insulation laquer etc.
    Using AC you do not need any rectifiers or power conditioning/filtering just feed the AC power to the Driver, the downfall is the transformer will not fail when power surge spike occures and can over voltage the driver causing it to fail. The DC swichmode power supply is the failing component, and its cheap to replace.
    With the transformer the price will be higher due to the weight and freight..
