every day that passes the steps are of giants
Successful brother, may God enlighten you more every day so that you remain so generous with us 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I do not speak English but thank you very much for your input and your channel. Greetings from Colombia.
One of the best videos on youtube... Lots of love for the creator.
The best video!! Thanks for all ;)
thanks a lot sir , i appreciate your time and efforts into making this available to the community
OK thanks anyway
I hope not to bother you too much with my questions but I am passionate about machining in milling.
congratulations again for your remarkable work.
Holy smokes! Nice work bud!!
Owesome. Thanks for the great job. I am definitely going to build one!
Great stuff! Thanks for sharing!
Respected Sir,
I absolutely love the vedio that you upload to the TH-cam..
I love you so much.
Thanks for your informative vedio.
Regards. Babur
Thank you bro, your video was so informative. I really enjoyed it.
I looks amazing! Thanks for sharing.
Félicitations pour le travail que tu réalises cette vidéo est ce qui se fait de mieux sous GRBL.
very good, essentials and very useful
Nice video, well done, thanks for sharing :)
You are awesome, thank you
that's... fantastic!!! :-)
incrível amigo.
Great compilation of GRBL control using the Arduino in one video, I know this is a lot of information to research and compile, keep up the good work. Have you also looked into the ODrive system? Something I am currently putting together at home. Thank you for sharing.
Thumbs UP and SUBSCRIBED :-D.
Thanks a lot!
thank you soooooo much :)
Awesome video !!! Would love to know how you would do this if you had to build it again in 2023 with similar budget !
Thanks Sir!!!
THANK YOU FRIEND >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>...
gracias Mil ...
Awesome!
Are you in contact with the guy who did the Mega-5X GRBL ?
Just want to ask, is it possible to support RC ESC spindle PWM control? It's like an RC servo control just for ESC spindle (I can't write to him on github)
You can register for free at github.
Then you can ask your question to Gauthier at github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X
Look at tab 'issues'
I am adding a rotary axis but its on the Y axis with A taking the place of X axis.
I used GrblGru to connect to grbl-mega-5x on a mega2560 with no errors.
The question is will your post processors allow my Y rotary gcode thru without changing it.
Testing under simulation the Y with A around it changes to a flat vertical plane around the X axis.
first off, great work! second, I see a lot of mentions for 2 rotary axes, BUT can the 2 extra drivers be assigned to x and y? Say, 2x, 2y, 1z? This way we can have dual endstops for autosquare?
Thanks. Yes, you can also configure 4 linear axes in the Mega-5X software. But you have to recompile the program for this. I will try to make these modifications. But it will take some time. See github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X/issues for details.
What if my Y is mirrored? I Do you need both motors for the rotary? I have a Xcarve looking for an alt controller that supports 5 axis.
Ingin bisa seperti anda ... saya suka sekali dan terimakasih sudah bagi-bagi ilmunya
Terima kasih banyak :)
GrblGru .. salam dari Indonesia ,jawa timur, kediri... you are the best :)
Hi. Awesome work! I know this may be a bit off-topic, but seeing you tried g2core and 5-axis grbl, which one do you like more? I've read g2core should be more accurate and precise, but the big userbase of grbl is a big plus. I'm planning on using tb6600 stepper drivers, and I don't know if they may work bad with 3.3v output instead of the mega's 5v. Thanks again for your effort!
Thanks. I have had very good experience with Grbl Mega-5X. It runs very stable.
But I believe that g2core has a much better hardware with the DUE. I will make another try with g2core soon.
Unfortunately I am not familiar with the tb6600 stepper driver.
Please don't use TB6600, they are horrible. Go to OMC StepperOnline and order digital drivers from there, costs next to nothing and are quality.
@@grblgru ccan you controll all 5 axis simultaniously to make more complexe patterns?
bari gall ey sir
The Mega-5X hex file is no longer provided, so it's necessary to load the source code into the Arduino IDE and compile/load it onto a Mega board. It was very difficult finding information online about this, and I'm not even sure I was able to do it properly. I'd love to see a video showing how to do this step by step. Thank you for all your videos!
Thanks for the info. At the moment I have only little time, but I will keep it in mind.
In the same boat also were you able to find a fix
@@chrisneeley2398 loading the source code into the Arduino IDE seems to work, but I haven't tested it fully yet. I was able to command it to move an axis, and verify that pulses are seen on a scope. Actually, the acceleration/deceleration portions of the move looked really nice. Haven't had much time to pursue this further, but this winter I think I'll have time to get serious about it. My problem now is trying to find a PC program (like Universal G-code sender), that handles more than 3 axes.
I have this version of grbl5x on my arduinomega with a 1.6 ramps, but I'm looking for a post processor for fusion 360 and/or solidcam, would you have that ?
No sorry, I only used Mega-5X with my own program.
Great
Hi, I wanted to know what kind of power source you use. Please provide more details if possible.
That depends on the motors you use. I have Nema17 /28Ncm motors. My power supply has 12V / 2A
Hi,
I would like to use grbl 5x in combination with a Ramps 1.4 board and an Arduino Mega2560 to operate my CNC milling machine with it. The ramps was converted to use with 24V (i removed the diode to the arduino board and changed the fuses). Now I would like to use the PWM pin D8 to control the spindle.
What do I have to set as PWM Max / to get a range of 1-10V from pin D8 with a supply voltage of 24V?
Sorry for the long post :)
Sorry, I'm not an expert on the software on the Mega.
I think Gauthier Brière can answer your question. See :
github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X/issues
No entiendo si quisiera hacer el eje rotativo en la cnc debería ser de 4 ejes o también se puede trabajar con el quinto eje.
Great video, thanks!
Can I use A and B axis to duplicate X and Y axis? I mean, I have 2 X and 2 Y steppers and I need each set to move synchronously
Sorry, I'm not a controller expert.
Please ask Gauthier Brière. He is the developer of Mega-5X and will certainly be able to help you.
github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X/discussions
love your work and use grblgru for cmm, just have a question if you don't mind. Is it operating as a true 5 axis or a 3+2. the difference is the simultaneous nature of the axis. if the fourth and fifth axis make a step then the 3d operation is performed or are all working at the same time.
In any case it would still produce a viable result but i imagine the finish would be a lot courser.
To be honest, I don't know exactly.
GrblGru sends only the GCode to the respective controller (GRBL, TinyG, Mega-5X or g2core) The actual axis control is done by the controller. However, I assume that all 5 axes work simultaneously.
In my internal simulation mode I make sure that all axes reach the end point and also all interpolated points simultaneously.
If your CAM can post 5 axis movements, then it moves 5 axes simultaneous, the Arduino has no idea if a move is 3 or 4 or 5 axis nor does it have to care about it.
@@JaakkoF My CAM can post 5axis as i am using Fusion 360, but i dont know wether it has built in feature of RTCP or TCP..
Hi!
Where can I find the full pinout of the Mega X5 GRBL?
I searched internet, but everywhere only fragmentary information :(
And I would like to get a complete single table. So that it contains not only the pins for the stepper motors, but also all the output and input signals, including the remote control.
Thanks!
Go to Github page github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X
and download the source ofMega-5X.
In the file "cpu_map.h" you will find the pinout
hello,
can tell me if it is possible to put the 2 motors of the Z in X axis and pass the X axis or there is a single motor in Z axis on the ramp 1.4 card and what parameters would have to be changed for it to work in your simulator please
thank you
Sorry, but I am not a hardware expert for the ramp board.
The simulation runs independently of the hardware.
where can i find all the pin out locations on the mega, like the probe the estop and so on thanks
Unfortunately I haven't found a valid pin out anywhere either. But you can download the Mega-5X project on GitHub github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X
In the file cpu_map.h you can find the pinouts.
Wenn i connect my Arduino with ramps1.4 on it .and i connect.than i get error code 9 Watt am i doing wrong? Greetz

Where can I see the schematic diagram of the connection to which pins the wires go to in your version?
download Mega-5X from github.com/fra589/grbl-Mega-5X
See cpu_map.h and config.h
I'm upgrading my Open builds mini mill following your guides. What are the wiring diagram for 5 axis. I could only find 3 axis only.
Unfortunately, I do not have a drawing. But the wiring is also very simple if you don't use a RAMPS board. You only have to wire the signals for pulse and direction to the driver. In the video you can see at 0:39 the pinout.
@@grblgru I found the mapping for it. Thanks you. Now just to understand the Software an usage..
thanks a lot .. so I just assemble this and how does the file will work? like once it all assembled and working on how to give the design file or create 1?
You are asking for 5 axis g code generator. Right?
Hi...thank you for the guide... Would it be possible to share the wiring diagram of this setup. Like you even I don't have access to a Ramps board and have to make do with 2 cnc shields.
Sorry, at the moment I have a lot to do and do not get around to it. But I have it on my ToDo list.
But it is also very simple. You only need to twist the pulse and direction signals of each axis. There are many examples in WWW.
If i want make 5 axis machine for machinable wax ? Speed feed and which spindle which watt i must use?
Sorry, but I can't tell you that.
Wich software do you use to create the 4 axis g-code?
I use Vectric Aspire high priced but was giving to me on birthday.
However if you look at more of GrblGru's videos you will see you can make or modify an object to generate the gcode.
FreeCad is another program but not sure if they have 4th axis going yet, a Post processor.
@@edwardharrison844 thanks, yes i use freeCad to draw my objects and estlcam as a gcode generator, is vectric a drawing software or does it create the actual gcode wich you can run over grbl? And wich version of vectric should i get to run a 4th on my machine? Thanks alot man :)
@@En3rGyFaNforEv3r It comes down to your POST PROCESSOR = PP in the software you use. PP is the interface between your machine and your software that you use. When you save your GCODE you pick a PP that has been coded for your machine. Vectric Aspire has 3 and 4 axis mm and inch PP's for GRBL on an Arduino Uno. But it doesn't have a PP for Mega-5X. The latest Aspire is $2000 USD but my version is real old but can create and cut parts on a CNC router.
Is it possible to run a fourth axis now? Thanks so much for your work.

Thank you in advance
If you have the "Command Line " box checked you can only send commands in white box above it, like G0 X20Y20. If you uncheck the "Command Line" box then you can use the jogger and send GCODE from a file you load or make in GrblGru.
Please check the data in the two controller windows. Does Mega-5X respond to commands from GrblGru ? Is the 3D model moving ? Which Mega 5X version did you flash ?

You only have to connect the signals "pulse" and "direction" of each axis to the corresponding inputs of your shield. You can find the pin out of your shield in the www. The connections on the Mega are described in the video. Additionally you need the supply voltage and you have to activate the "Enable" input. That's all.

if I remember correctly you can connect EN/GND together. But then all motors are always under power. The alternative is to enable the motors only when they are moved. Then they will not get so warm. Normally you switch EN for each axis separately from the controller. See last column of the table:
Axis. Step. Dir. Enable
X. A0. A1. D38
Y. A6. A7. A2
Z. D46. D48. A8
A. D26. D28. D24
B. D36. D34. D30
In this case you can only enable all axes on the board together.

by using arduino mega 2560 +1.4 ramps board
i uploaded frimware but the E0,E1 is not giving output as Axis A and B but when i am switching it in 4 axis in grbl foam cutter then it gives E0 as Axis U so ....
my problem is that i my board E0 and E1 which is not as Axis A and B ...... how and what changes i have to make in frimware to get This E0 and E1 as Output Axis A and B.......
>>>first off all i have to make changes in c++ files and header files then...
>>>second how i have to compile it in one single .ino file from bunches of c++ and header files of frimware
Atleast help me out from my second problem because i don,t know how to make firmware for my machine into single .ino files to upload it in my machines...................
please if somebody knows kindly help me to make it solved............
If you want to change the Mega-5X project and compile it yourself, watch this video:
th-cam.com/video/jNKa2-UwKgo/w-d-xo.html
If you only need a hex file for a FoamCutter with the axes X,Y,Z and U you can use the hex file that comes with the installation of GrblGru.
You will find the file
grbl-Mega-5X-v1.2d_XYZU_SPINDLE_PWM_ON_D6.Hex
after the GrblGru setup in the directory C:\Program Files (x86)\toe\GrblGru
For flashing the Mega you need the program XLoader.
Hi
I need hex file 5axis
Watch the video. There is a link to a page with the hex file.
Is it possible to use this for a 4 axis hot CNC foam cutter? I'm using the software developed by github.com/rahulsarchive/4AxisFoamCutter it works well on GRBL 8.2c but now I'm trying to use Mega-5X on the RAMPS board but the Grbl-Panel Rahul modified doesn't work. The grbl parameters are different. Thanks
Thanks for the link to 4AxisFoamCutter. Very interesting project ! In my opinion the parameters of Grbl and Mega-5X are the same. With the command $xx=yyy it should be possible to set all parameters as they are set in GRBL.
@@grblgru The problem I have found is that the Axis variables are not the same $1-4 and not $100-103 so the controller program Daniel wrote doesn't work. I have a little programming experience but not enough to figure this one out.
I would like to control the cutter. But the problem is that Mega-5X has 3 linear axes and 2 rotary axes. But you need 4 linear axes. I will see if I can change that.
@@grblgru Thank you.
Hi Keith, I am late, but in my new version V3.45 I have a 3D model of your Foam Cutter.
Mega-5X can also control 4 linear axes. But you have to change the settings.
Thanks to all my brothers and sisters
I m facing problem in download hex file please help me to sort out this problem
If you have GrblGru installed, you will find 2 sample hex files for Mega-5X in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\toe\GrblGru_XXXX
