[00:36:50] <jdh> so I bought this chunk of steel from amazon for $57. They delivered an empty box, gave me a refund. Now I try to re-order and it is $141.

[00:41:13] <jp1> Sure there wasnt transparent aluminum in the box
[00:46:41] <jdh> I didn't actually open the box.
[00:47:29] <L84Supper> maybe it's: empty box of steel $57, box with steel $141

[08:47:17] <sebastian> can i set homing paramaters with HAL at runtime?
[08:49:12] <sebastian> such as HOME_OFFSET
[08:56:27] <micges> no

[11:07:32] phantone is now known as phantoxe
[11:08:58] <jthornton> I read that but why?
[11:09:23] <sebastian> i need to do homing twice, but with different home offsets
[11:09:37] -!- phantoxeD has quit [Read error: Operation timed out]
[11:10:19] <jthornton> why can't you use a different coordinate system?
[11:12:06] <sebastian> i made something like a gantrymachine
[11:12:54] <jthornton> what is the second homing move for?
[11:13:56] <sebastian> i want the second axis to have another offset than the first
[11:14:07] <sebastian> but both use the same joint in HAL
[11:14:24] <jthornton> you have two spindles on on axis
[11:14:34] <sebastian> two motors
[11:14:36] <sebastian> yes
[11:14:39] <jthornton> on one axis
[11:14:49] <jthornton> just change coordinate system for second one
[11:16:17] <jthornton> homing is only to set the physical limits of your machine and provide a reference point for the machine origin
[11:16:50] <jthornton> if you home again to a different location the soft limits will not work anymore
[11:17:18] <sebastian> i know that
[11:17:44] <sebastian> it's hard to describe for me, it's a quite complicated workaround
[11:18:15] <jthornton> to use G54 for one spindle and G55 for the second?
[11:18:29] <sebastian> i just need to change the HOME_OFFSET at runtime
[11:18:36] <jthornton> you can't do that
[11:18:41] <sebastian> ok thanks
[11:19:27] <jthornton> have you looked at G92 as a possible solution to your strange problem?
[11:19:48] <sebastian> no, i'll have a look
[11:20:50] phantoneD is now known as phantoxeD
[11:27:45] <sebastian> no, it does not solve my problem
[11:27:49] <sebastian> thanks anyway
[11:28:08] <jthornton> ok I'm out of ideas as I don't really know what the problem is
[11:28:43] <sebastian> ok i'll try to describe
[11:29:02] <sebastian> i have two physical steppers
[11:29:26] <sebastian> in hal i only use one joint for both
[11:29:43] <sebastian> so most of the time they run synchron
[11:31:18] <jthornton> both are on the same axis but can move independent of each other?
[11:31:26] <sebastian> yes
[11:31:55] <jthornton> and?
[11:32:07] <sebastian> i made component that calculates the difference between the position of the first and the second motor
[11:33:02] <sebastian> so i can disable one of the motors, to move the other independently
[11:33:36] <sebastian> so i want to do homing twice
[11:33:48] <sebastian> first time the motors run synchrone
[11:34:19] <sebastian> then i disable one of them and rehome
[11:34:47] <sebastian> the second time i wanna have another offset
[11:35:31] <sebastian> crazy stuff, i know...
[11:36:05] -!- mhaberler [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[11:37:03] <jthornton> why can't you have the second motor as a second linear axis?
[11:37:36] <sebastian> i've tried this as well
[11:37:45] <jthornton> do you have a photo of this beast?
[11:37:52] <jthornton> what was the result of that?
[11:37:57] <sebastian> got a lot of joint following errors
[11:38:12] <jthornton> on a stepper system?
[11:38:45] <sebastian> yes, it gets command feedback from the stepgen
[11:39:02] <sebastian> no sorry, i do not have a foto
[11:39:19] <jthornton> is the joint following errors caused by your component?
[11:39:26] <sebastian> yes
[11:39:37] <jthornton> have you looked at the thc component?
[11:39:55] <sebastian> i think i'll refactor the idea with the 2 linear axis
[11:40:00] -!- Thetawaves has quit [Quit: This computer has gone to sleep]
[11:40:05] <sebastian> what is this?
[11:40:38] <sebastian> tetra hydro cannabinol???
[11:40:54] <jthornton> it's my torch height control and I hyjack the Z axis and move it at will to keep the tip voltage constant while lying to the step gen about the actual position
[11:41:47] <jthornton> 2 linear axis and moving via g code would/should be the easy way
[11:42:58] <jthornton> I am curious what does this machine do?
[11:43:12] <sebastian> it's just a gantrymachine
[11:44:20] <jthornton> doesn't sound like "just a gantrymachine" :) what do you make on it?
[11:44:34] <sebastian> the second motor just moves a few millimeters for homing
[11:45:35] -!- mhaberler has quit [Quit: mhaberler]
[11:46:00] <sebastian> sure, i have one physical X axis, that has 2 motors, on the right and left side
[11:46:51] <jthornton> ok, so the two motors are the ones that move the gantry, I thought you had two spindles
[11:47:06] <sebastian> no, two steppers
[11:47:25] <jthornton> one on each side of the gantry right?
[11:47:45] <sebastian> yes
[11:47:59] <jthornton> so the upshot is your trying to square the gantry?
[11:48:20] <sebastian> yes
[11:49:14] <jthornton> the simple way for a stepper gantry is to physically push the gantry against a hard stop and home without a switch so that position is 0
[11:50:29] <sebastian> but that sounds a bit brutal
[11:50:47] <sebastian> my solution works pretty well
[11:50:57] <jthornton> so do you have independent home switch inputs for each side of the gantry
[11:51:06] <sebastian> yes
[11:51:27] <jthornton> so, first one wins or is it always one side first?
[11:51:56] <jthornton> are you using gantrykins?
[11:52:04] <sebastian> always one side, for first time, one homeswitch is disabled
[11:52:07] <sebastian> hell no!
[11:52:37] <sebastian> gantrykins do not work
[11:52:48] <jthornton> just asking
[11:52:53] <sebastian> only in automode
[11:53:46] <jthornton> so you home one side, block the step input to that drive then home the other side?
[11:54:05] <sebastian> yes
[11:55:54] <jthornton> just thinking out loud early in the morning but that should just work... unless your home point is not the same
[11:56:24] <jthornton> can you physically adjust the home switch on each side to get them in sync?
[11:56:37] <sebastian> yes
[11:56:42] <sebastian> that works well
[11:56:55] <sebastian> but it would be better to do it logically
[11:57:33] <sebastian> that's the only problem i have left
[11:57:35] <jthornton> how would you tell logically if your not square?
[11:58:08] <jthornton> and I understand your fixation on the home offset now...
[11:58:09] <sebastian> not sure, what you mean?
[11:58:25] <sebastian> ok, good
[11:59:01] <jthornton> how do you calculate the offset needed to get the gantry square?
[11:59:32] <sebastian> i can show you the component i wrote
[11:59:38] <jthornton> it seems only possible to physically adjust the home switches to get a square gantry
[11:59:42] <jthornton> ok

[12:22:13] <Jymmm> oh, gotcha
[12:23:24] <sebastian> jthornton, yes would be easier, but does not work with mesa, because stepgen there is on the firmware and i have no influence on it with HAL
[12:24:09] <jthornton> and the plot thickens...
[12:25:04] <jthornton> so you have two stepgens both getting position input from the same source?
[12:25:15] <sebastian> yes

[14:43:54] <ssi> any HNC owners awake?
[14:44:42] <cradek> just ask your real question
[14:45:01] <ssi> do you recall whether the 90v supply that feeds the drives is AC or DC?
[14:45:50] <cradek> the drives surely take DC
[14:46:00] <cradek> I don't recall whether it's 90v or not
[14:46:13] <cradek> the drives have a huge filter cap on each one
[14:46:13] <ssi> I would assume so, I just can't recall seeing any rectifier of any significant size in the drive supply
[14:46:19] <ssi> yeah that's the output cap though
[14:46:32] <cradek> don't you have docs for the drives?
[14:46:32] <ssi> the servos connect directly to the big cap and ground
[14:46:32] <skunkworks> output cap?
[14:46:39] <ssi> yeah I do, but not here
[14:46:48] <ssi> I've been meaning to sheetscan the drive manual forever
[14:47:02] <cradek> well I can tell you for sure that there's not AC on that big electrolytic cap
[14:47:06] <ssi> I'm starting to believe peter's theory about brownouts causing the faults when the compressor comes on
[14:47:13] <ssi> yeah I know, they're DC servos for sure
[14:47:22] <ssi> just not sure if the drive itself rectifies or if it's dc before that
[14:47:29] <cradek> yes mine sure does that (ferrors if it's rapiding when the air compressor starts)
[14:47:31] <ssi> I'm going to go through and see what it'll cost to replace all the caps
[14:47:44] <ssi> oh really?
[14:47:47] <ssi> it's pretty irritating
[14:47:48] <cradek> really
[14:47:50] <cradek> yep
[14:47:56] <ssi> you using the hiak drives?
[14:48:03] <cradek> yes the original drives
[14:48:27] <ssi> good to know, thanks
[14:48:51] <cradek> I don't have the greatest power there, and a large 1ph air compressor
[14:49:06] <ssi> my power's pretty decent, but my compressor is 5hp
[14:49:18] <ssi> and I noticed last night that the lights dim noticably when the compressor starts
[14:49:29] <cradek> 5hp on single phase 240v?
[14:49:31] <ssi> yep
[14:49:34] <cradek> yeah ouch
[14:49:55] <ssi> I have 200A service, and mostly it's not a problem
[14:50:06] <ssi> I never had this problem before, but I haven't been running much this summer
[14:50:13] <cradek> put a vfd with soft start on your air compressor!
[14:50:14] <ssi> thinking that with all the ACs going, I'm straining my service limits
[14:50:18] <ssi> yeah thought about that
[14:50:28] <ssi> but that'd require replacing the motor I guess
[14:50:35] <ssi> I dunno if you can vfd a single phase motor
[14:50:39] <cradek> yeah unfortunately
[14:50:50] <ssi> and I replaced that motor recently
[14:50:55] <ssi> and it wasn't cheap
[14:50:58] <ssi> I bought a US made leeson for it
[14:51:02] <cradek> my portable compressor has a clutch so the motor can start unloaded
[14:51:22] <cradek> it probably couldn't start at all otherwise (120v)
[14:51:25] <ssi> haha
[14:51:39] <cradek> still has trouble when on an extension cord
[14:51:52] <cradek> it runs the motor all the time and only cycles the clutch
[14:52:08] <cradek> guess it needs a crank to start it up, haha
[14:52:10] <ssi> my compressor is a big 18cfm IR single stage, and it's right by my panel wired with under 6 feet of 8 gauge
[14:52:46] <cradek> my big one is dual stage, forget the cfm, it's a big tank, 6' tall
[14:52:52] <cradek> also 5hp on single phase
[14:53:15] <ssi> I also want to try to get a 5hp VFD for the HNC
[14:53:19] <ssi> I have that motor on a 3hp VFD right now,
[14:53:25] <ssi> and I get decel faults way too often
[14:53:27] <cradek> it's only a 2hp motor
[14:53:32] <ssi> I have the decel ramp set really long
[14:53:34] <cradek> add a braking resistor
[14:53:36] <ssi> I don't know why it's a problem
[14:53:46] <cradek> a bigger vfd won't help, add a braking resistor
[14:53:49] <ssi> well the drive is the type that doesn't have an internal IGBT, so you need a spendy braking module
[14:53:55] <cradek> oh heck
[14:53:57] <ssi> yeah :/
[14:54:12] <ssi> 3hp vfds that run on single phase are somewhat hard to come by
[14:54:17] <cradek> with all those pulleys and crap, there's a lot of mass on that spindle
[14:54:19] <ssi> I think 5hp is near impossible to get on single phase
[14:54:30] <ssi> I might oughta just get the original electromechanical brake fixed and reinstalled
[14:54:33] <cradek> yes, pretty sure 3 is as big as you can get
[14:55:02] -!- karavanjoW has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]
[14:55:02] <ssi> you're running the original spindle motor with all the goodies under there?
[14:55:04] <cradek> do you have a cheapie 2hp vfd you could try? with braking it might work better
[14:55:15] <ssi> nah... I have a 1hp and a couple of 1/4hp ones :P
[14:55:18] <cradek> yes there's a 2x4 holding the varispeed thing in the right place
[14:55:24] <ssi> yeah that's exactly how mine's set up haha
[14:55:25] <cradek> haven't touched it otherwise
[14:55:33] <cradek> I do use the gear change
[14:55:34] <ssi> but I would really like to get the varispeed working as a high/low gear
[14:55:43] <cradek> don't you have the high/low clutches going?
[14:55:49] <ssi> yes
[14:56:03] <ssi> but in low clutch, the bottom end of the range is too fast and torqueless for good rigid tapping
[14:56:14] <ssi> I can do it, but not as slow as I'd like
[14:56:17] <cradek> ah
[14:56:21] <ssi> and it sometimes balks at starting that slow
[14:56:39] <ssi> I have a job I've been running (just finished) that rigid taps M10, and sometimes the motor just won't start on that part of the program
[14:56:43] <ssi> it'll sit there and twitch back and forth
[14:56:56] <ssi> I probably could program it to start faster and slow down
[14:57:07] <cradek> wonder if you've got a wonky vfd
[14:57:07] <ssi> but I'd really love to have the ability to switch the varispeed into low
[14:57:14] <ssi> maybe
[14:57:20] <ssi> it certainly isn't high end
[14:57:54] <ssi> was thinking about rigging up an arduino as a standalone device that knows how to run the stepper up and down to the travel limits
[14:58:00] <ssi> and then rig a mesa pin to control it
[14:58:51] <cradek> there are limit switches on that mess
[14:59:01] <cradek> it'd be very easy to do in hal
[14:59:32] <ssi> yeah
[14:59:36] <cradek> the hard part is making sure the spindle is turning while you change it
[14:59:58] <ssi> ohh good point
[14:59:59] <cradek> varispeed sucks that way - if you stop in high speed and then mount something heavy or floppy, you're screwed
[15:00:23] <cradek> you might want a vfd with jog input
[15:00:26] <ssi> well I don't think that'd be too too much of a problem... can always use low clutch to get it started
[15:00:45] <ssi> I don't really anticipate mounting anything particularly heavy on that machine... it's really not made for big parts
[15:00:46] <cradek> that's true. you could use low clutch whenever you want to change the varispeed.
[15:01:00] <ssi> in fact I am quoting another job that needs 4" roundbar stock
[15:01:07] <ssi> and it's a hassle cause now i need to find a 4" step chuck/closer
[15:01:16] <cradek> I'd do it all in hal
[15:01:24] <cradek> eek, 4" is very big for that machine
[15:01:59] <cradek> brb
[15:03:58] <ssi> it's 4" dia, but only 1.25" long
[15:04:02] <ssi> if I can workhold it, it'll be fine

[15:36:01] <ssi> I like the collets better for that kind of work because it's fast and repeatable
[15:36:20] <ssi> I just ran a 100pc job with a 2" step collet, making parts that were out of 2" roundbar and 1.95" finished
[15:36:37] <ssi> and the collets worked out amazingly well. I had to machine one side and then flip over and second op the other side, and the concentricity was great, and they were fast and easy to do

[16:11:22] <jthornton> it
[16:11:26] <jthornton> 's the cheap one
[16:11:35] <ssi> gotcha
[16:11:41] <ssi> here's the parts I made in a 2" step closer:
[16:11:42] <ssi> http://p.twimg.com/Az8wNBACUAI4rOA.jpg:large
[16:11:58] <jthornton> nice
[16:12:08] <ssi> they're faced and od turned with the radius, drilled, chamfered, and tapped halfway through
[16:12:17] -!- Guthur [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[16:12:23] <ssi> parts are about 3/8" overlength to start with, and held in the collet in a 2" .250 deep section
[16:12:37] <ssi> and then flipped over and held by the new turned 1.95" diameter in a .500" deep section of the collet
[16:12:51] <ssi> faced, chamfered, tapped, and then the radius is cut
[16:12:58] <ssi> and if they're not dead concentric, the radius looks terrible
[16:13:13] <ssi> I have to be very careful that there aren't any chips in the bottom of the collet before I seat the part
[16:13:15] <jthornton> this is the lightened one
http://smokeandstuff.com/index.php/products/lightweight-puck-saver
[16:13:21] <jthornton> yea
[16:13:41] <ssi> tapping pushes chips down to the bottom of the bore and I have to blow it out every third part or so
[16:13:49] <ssi> yea those look good
[16:14:02] <jthornton> this is the standard one
http://smokeandstuff.com/index.php/products/standard-puck-saver
[16:14:21] <jthornton> just faced on each side with a radius on the edge
[16:14:24] <ssi> right
[16:14:54] <ssi> the new part this guy wants me to make is only like 2.75" od, but it's got a 3.58" flange, so I have to make it out of 4" stock
[16:15:04] <jthornton> I also made these for fun
http://smokeandstuff.com/index.php/products/custom-engraved-puck-saver
[16:15:07] <ssi> I'm telling him that he needs to redesign it to be 3.45" flange, because 3.5" stock is WAY cheaper
[16:15:13] <ssi> like 30% cheaper
[16:15:19] <jthornton> and a lot less chips
[16:15:21] <ssi> yep
[16:15:33] <ssi> he didn't like the price I gave him
[16:15:42] <ssi> haha those fancy ones look awesome
[16:15:47] <jthornton> thanks
[16:16:37] <ssi> how do you get your stock for those?
[16:16:39] <jthornton> I made a jig from some soft jaws the second op has a pin that lines up with one of the holes to get the position right
[16:16:42] <ssi> cut to length, or do you cut it yourself
[16:16:49] <jthornton> I cut it myself
[16:16:53] -!- sumpfralle has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[16:17:14] <ssi> the thing that I noticed is that if my bandsaw isn't set up dead square when I'm cutting stock, it becomes about impossible for me to turn those parts concentric
[16:17:29] <ssi> it wouldn't be so big a deal if i wasn't trying to turn to so close the raw diameter

[16:17:45] <ssi> I buy from metal supermarket mostly, and they charge the same price regardless of how you have it cut
[16:17:49] <ssi> so I have them cut them to length for me
[16:17:52] <ssi> and their saw cuts dead square
[16:18:09] <jthornton> yea my first bandsaw was like that and the one I use now cuts dead square
[16:18:12] <ssi> I think they hate me a little bit when I come in and order 100 pieces 2.75" long
[16:18:19] <ssi> but hey, that's how they set up their pricing model :)
[16:18:47] <jthornton> if someone ordered 100 of anything from me I'd be happy
[16:19:22] <ssi> haha yeah
[16:19:45] <ssi> I have a reasonably nice bandsaw now, and I'm sure I can get it running square enough to be happy with, but I haven't yet
[16:19:59] <ssi> it's a grizzly 7x12 saw... HUGE improvement over the old shitbox HF 4x6 that I had
[16:20:34] <jdh> hey, my shitbox HF is great (for the price)
[16:20:47] <ssi> yeah, for the price nothing beats having a bandsaw
[16:20:57] <jthornton> this photo shows my new bandsaw
http://gnipsel.com/shop/inside/inside-06.xhtml
[16:20:57] <ssi> but my $800 grizzly saw is WORLDS better than the $250 HF saw
[16:21:13] <ssi> that is nice jt
[16:21:16] <ssi> nicer than mine I think
[16:21:27] <jthornton> when you get a Wilton you will hate your grizz

[18:11:08] <skunkworks> sure
[18:12:15] <Jymmm> skunkworks: with the 6 GPIO pins, for small project you can avoid those highly overpriced, suck support options that mesa has. Right PCW?
[18:12:50] <skunkworks> (I would rather go mesa...)
[18:12:53] <skunkworks> :)
[18:13:14] <Jymmm> If anyone cares, great lil knife with fire steel built in. Just orderd 2 more

[18:17:33] <Jymmm> The SL4 adds a LED light, but I heard the fire steel likes to break in them, as they are thinner.
