[00:09:28] <JT-Shop> getting better at reading the metal as I spin

[00:10:17] -!- FinboySlick [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:10:37] <Tom_itx> i guess it pays to read the scroll back
[00:11:17] <JT-Shop> well the plan is to spin a bullet shaped cap for a 105mm case to use as an urn for my neighbor
[00:11:56] <JT-Shop> well see if we get done before it is needed... otherwise he has been put on notice that a cardboard box will be used

[00:13:57] <Tom_itx> used as intended or for heat treat?
[00:14:25] <JT-Shop> pottery mostly, I thought I might want to use it for heat treating but it is too big
[00:15:01] <JT-Shop> it's brand new, I've only warmed it up once...
[00:15:09] <Tom_itx> heh
[00:15:19] <Tom_itx> is pottery still popular?
[00:15:31] <Tom_itx> it was here for a while and kinda died off
[00:15:44] <JT-Shop> dunno, you can also slump bottles in there
[00:16:53] <JT-Shop> that still ain't a good photo of the spun part

[15:34:56] <FinboySlick> Jymmm: I don't have an opinion on the matter as I didn't witness any of it. I'd likely have strong bias towards archivist though simply because he's awesome.

[15:38:21] <Jymmm> for me
[15:38:38] <FinboySlick> Jymmm: If you work hard enough on propaganda, we might let you run the US branch.
[15:40:08] <Jymmm> FinboySlick: I'd much rather head up the Tropical Island Branches
[15:40:29] <FinboySlick> That sort of climate will rust your machines.

[21:53:15] <MercuryRising> So I'm going through the setup of Linux CNC, connected to a HobbyCNC controller board, I have the pinouts defined correctly, and I'm on a Desktop with a parallel port, Using LinuxCNC 10.04, and I'm testing my motors out (I think they're wired correctly, at least they're the same as they say they should be on the sheet), but when I try to Jog the axes, the motors just hum
[21:53:31] <MercuryRising> if I pulse the jog quickly, I can get some movement, but they mainly just sit there and make noise, instead of moving
[21:54:18] <cradek> possibly your acceleration or velocity settings are too optimistic for the motors to follow
[21:54:38] <MercuryRising> any idea what would be good test values?
[21:55:03] <MercuryRising> I've run through .1 - 1.5 on velocity, they just hum at different frequencies
[21:55:27] <cradek> unless you have the scale set properly, those numbers don't mean very much. what is your scale?
[21:56:09] <MercuryRising> 4000 steps / inch
[21:56:19] -!- maximilian_h [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[21:56:31] -!- maximilian_h has quit [Client Quit]
[21:56:37] <cradek> have you tried different accelerations?
[21:56:37] <andypugh> Accelleration numbers?
[21:56:52] <andypugh> (I was quicker, cradel can spell better)
[21:57:11] <MercuryRising> yes, switching motor steps/rev to 10 instead of 200 let's them move choppily!
[21:57:16] <MercuryRising> accel is 30 in/s
[21:57:53] <cradek> 30 inch/s2 means accel to full speed (.1 inch/s) in 1/300th second
[21:58:08] <cradek> your motors possibly can't do that
[21:58:21] <cradek> experiment with lower accels
[21:58:53] <MercuryRising> alright, awesome!
[21:59:20] <MercuryRising> messing with these values won't damage my motors or board, will it?
[22:01:25] <cradek> no, if your numbers are wrong, they'll just fail to turn correctly
[22:03:43] <MercuryRising> sometimes they sound pretty nasty. But, they run now! How easily should I be able to stop the movement of the motor with my hand? they are 305 oz-in motors, but barely pressing them makes them seize
[22:04:15] <MercuryRising> .25" bore
[22:04:19] <andypugh> voltage?
[22:04:33] <cradek> steppers get weaker the faster you try to make them go.
[22:04:36] <MercuryRising> input to the driver board is 24 volts
[22:05:13] <andypugh> OK, just wondering if you had made the mistake of using the "nameplate voltage" which is probably about 2V
[22:05:40] <andypugh> See how much torque there is at about 100rpm.
[22:06:45] <MercuryRising> how do i make it run at a specific rpm?
[22:07:11] <cradek> math
[22:07:43] <cradek> there are 200 steps per rev, and you've got revs/inch and inches/second
[22:08:12] <MercuryRising> is 200 steps per rev a good value? is it pretty standard for steppers?
[22:08:13] <cradek> well with your microstepping you might have a different number of steps per rev
[22:08:26] <MercuryRising> micro is set to 1:1 for the moment
[22:08:33] <cradek> it's rare to find anything other than 200
[22:08:53] <cradek> full stepping can be much weaker than half or microstepping
[22:08:56] -!- FinboySlick has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[22:09:00] <cradek> suggest trying 1/2 or 1/4
[22:09:17] <MercuryRising> alright, will do
[22:09:35] <cradek> errr I meant you've got steps/inch and inches/sec
[22:09:43] <MercuryRising> the disadvantage to more microstepping is more processing power to compute travel?
[22:10:03] -!- chillly has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[22:10:20] <cradek> it's the maximum rate of software step generation twiddling your parallel port
[22:10:20] <DJ9DJ> gn8
[22:10:48] <cradek> it's sort of like processing power, I guess. more like latency. there's only so fast it can go and still make nice even pulses

[22:33:46] <icee> hmm? torque decreases when you microstep
[22:34:56] <icee> things get much smoother and nicer
[22:35:11] <icee> you tend not to get (much) more actual resolution/accuracy either
[22:35:25] <PCW> Torque per ustep does stall torque does not
[22:35:50] <icee> PCW: sure, and hten you get a lag proportional to whatever the torque needed to actually dynamically budge the machine is
[22:36:11] -!- H264 [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[22:36:52] <PCW> Yep, you still have a 50 pole motor and the torque vs displacement is not changed by the ustep ratio
[22:38:10] <icee> stall torque is the same; microstep torque is low; torque @ speed may be lower or the same
[22:38:34] <PCW> and the torque is roughly sinusoidal so there a 'flat spot' in the torque around the current rotor position
[22:38:35] <PCW> regardless of how fine you can set the magnetic rotor position
[22:38:44] -!- WalterN has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[22:39:13] <PCW> If you have feedback you can improve this somewhat
[22:39:48] <icee> the flat spot may not be really flat though.. it may be a flat positive or negative value because of detent torque
[22:40:34] <icee> yah, but if you have feedback, you should just be using a real servo :)
[22:40:59] <PCW> Well detent torque is usually a small fraction of stall torque so you can do pretty well with light loads
[22:41:27] <icee> sure, the detent torque is just one of the big factors preventing you from getting additional real resolution from microstepping
[22:41:52] <icee> meh
[22:41:55] <icee> everything is hard and nothing works
[22:41:59] <PCW> You can make a real servo with a step motor, but its usually not worth it
[22:42:48] <PCW> (more complicated drive electronics than a 3 phase)
[22:42:50] <PCW> but better low speed torque (50 poles)
[22:43:09] <icee> and more weird nonlinearities from all those poles
[22:43:28] <PCW> doesnt matter much with feedback
[22:43:44] * icee shrugs
[22:44:05] <icee> limits how much gain you can have
[22:44:08] <icee> i dunno
[22:44:22] <icee> stop being optimistic
[22:44:25] <icee> everything is broken and too hard
[22:44:25] <icee> ;)
[22:44:30] <PCW> there are a number of commercial step motor servos so they must work pretty well
[22:45:24] <PCW> unstallable, high low speed torque (avoid gearing) but expensive complicated drive
[22:45:58] <PCW> (unstallable in the step motor sense)
[22:54:49] <JT-Shop> if you just installed the 8.04 livecd is there any reason to not just jump to 2.5?
[22:56:31] <PCW> the buildbot makes it so it should be OK

[23:14:25] <andypugh> I saw an interesting motor today on youtube. Apparently there are some enormous flat brushless motors used on direct-drive washing machines. They look very useful.
[23:14:56] <JT-Shop> you can't have mine, the wife is still using it :)

[23:41:44] <andypugh> He calls it "F & P" in another video, so quite possibly.

[23:42:41] <Tom_itx> i'm rather sure of it
[23:43:05] <andypugh> The stator from an LG is here, looks potentially very interesting. Direct drive lathe maybe?

[23:45:15] <Tom_itx> http://www.thebackshed.com/Windmill/assembly.asp
[23:45:40] <Tom_itx> looks similar except maybe they spin the magnets instead of the wire
[23:46:36] <Tom_itx> or is the LG just part of the rotor assembly?
[23:46:40] <Tom_itx> maybe that's it..
[23:48:00] <andypugh> The LG part is a stator
[23:50:38] <Tom_itx> dude i know in Au made a windmill from one
[23:50:50] <Tom_itx> worked good until a storm came along and took the blades off
[23:51:13] <Tom_itx> they rewire em for 3 phase iirc
[23:51:27] <andypugh> They look marvellously useful for any number of such projects.
[23:51:40] <andypugh> They would be three-phase originally.
