[00:14:44] <Tom_itx> andypugh i wonder what angle that cutter is
[00:14:55] -!- stsydow has quit [Quit: Leaving]
[00:14:58] <Tom_itx> looks similar to one i've got for cutting casting relief
[00:15:19] <andypugh> I would guess 20 or 14.5 degrees.
[00:15:36] <andypugh> Casting relief is 1.5 or so?
[00:15:45] <Tom_itx> i don't recall what mine is but i think it's 7 or 15
[00:15:58] <pcw_home> Dont racks need an involute curve?
[00:16:32] <pcw_home> or is that all done in the spur gear
[00:16:33] <Tom_itx> depends on what kind of rack
[00:16:45] <Tom_itx> if a flat gear rides on it, no
[00:16:56] -!- RagingComputer [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[00:17:57] <andypugh> Involute racks are flat-sided.
[00:18:28] <andypugh> In fact, it is the involute rack that defines the involute curve of the gear.
[00:18:52] <andypugh> Involute gear hobs are flat-sided too.

[06:47:00] <evokanevo> Hello. Is this the right place to ask about writing custom M-codes in C/C++, or should I do that in linuxcnc-devel?
[06:47:42] <evokanevo> (I actually already asked over there but haven't heard back yet)
[06:49:14] <archivist> the trick in IRC is to lurk and wait for an answer as it depends on who is around
[06:49:48] <evokanevo> fair enough. i will repost every hour or so in case there are new users.
[06:50:40] <evokanevo> I hope this is the right place to ask - anyway, I'm trying to write a custom M-code in C and not finding any examples. I only see examples of how to do this in bash. I want to issue a simple command like "M64 P0" for example.
[06:50:40] <evokanevo> [23:46] <evokanevo> In the AXIS gui I can run the M-code with "M102 P... Q..." but I don't know how to get the MOTION or IO task to do anything as a result of what I'm doing in my M102 executable.
[06:50:42] * FinboySlick lurks and gives bad answers ;)

[20:29:10] <pcw_home> So if you want then to count exactly one count per detent, you need the encoder counter set to 1X mode
[20:29:12] <pcw_home> (and the correct phase/polarity chosen so it does not count in the 'valley' of the detent)

[21:12:54] <andypugh> "I've got this really cool app called Bubble on my phone, it's two
[21:12:54] <andypugh> concentric rings with a little circle in the middle that moves around
[21:12:56] <andypugh> inside the rings, it's a game or something, you have to get the circle
[21:12:58] <andypugh> bang in the middle of the two rings. If you hold the phone vertically
[21:12:59] <andypugh> the rings turn into a little rectangle with a dip out of the top of
[21:13:00] <andypugh> it, and you have to get the circle in the middle from side to side
[21:13:02] <andypugh> instead. It's quite cool. I can imagine it'd be useful in a situation
[21:13:03] <andypugh> like this. I spose you could actually use it as a tool. I don't know
[21:13:03] <andypugh> what you'd do if the battery ran out. I wonder if they do manual ones?"

[21:23:15] <L84Supper2> we can also get lots of parts out the backdoor from high volume buyers

[21:23:56] <Tom_itx> i've made several orders with him
[21:24:48] <L84Supper2> we can ask for 1M piece pricing and the seller will still expect us to pay $.22 for each sample

[21:31:52] <andypugh> evokanevo: This does not answer your question, I realise, but if you want to follw paths at that speed on a machine with those accel levels, then you will need to use exact-path ot exact-stop.

[21:39:06] <pcw_home> Is it related to the A axis? I tried that gcode in sim (minus A) and the curves were symmetrical
[21:40:02] -!- sumpfralle [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[21:40:02] <andypugh> There are no A-moves, to it shouldn't matter.
[21:40:34] -!- eric_unterhausen [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[21:41:14] <pcw_home> so whats different I wonder
[21:41:40] <andypugh> Is it possible for inverse time mode to make a short move happen faster than a long one?
[21:42:35] <pcw_home> Was that in inverse time mode?
[21:43:07] <andypugh> Probably not. I am grasping at straws
[21:45:19] <evokanevo> pcw_home: It could be A-axis related - I am not using trivkins. However, the A axis is the same in every part of the path so it seems like it shouldn't matter.
[21:45:27] <pcw_home> anyway I didn't see any difference in the curves (of course the sim accel values are not the same as evokanevo's)
[21:47:27] <pcw_home> probably have to divide/conquer to find where its gone wrong
[21:47:32] <evokanevo> Nope. Just checked with my trivkins version and it's the same. So kinematics/inverse-kinematics aren't messing with it.
[21:51:10] <pcw_home> Well looks OK in 2.5 sim
[21:51:27] <evokanevo> I'm using 2.5.2
[21:54:34] <andypugh> There are unlikely to be any differences between 2.5 and 2.5.2
[21:54:58] <andypugh> Do the three moves all happen at the same speed?
[21:56:09] <evokanevo> Not sure exactly what you mean - they have the same feedrate set, however the Z is slower.
[21:56:18] -!- tjtr33 [[email protected]] has joined #linuxcnc
[21:56:32] <evokanevo> So far it looks like moving from slow segment to fast segment results in large arc.
[21:56:41] <evokanevo> And fast to slow results in a small arc.
[21:58:50] <evokanevo> Yep, that's it. Just switched the axis to move only in the XY-plane (same max acceleration/velocity) and all arcs are the same.
[21:59:04] <evokanevo> Thanks for your help.
[21:59:25] <andypugh> That probably makes sense, the motion planner always guarantees that it can stop before the end of the next segment.
[21:59:54] <andypugh> I think you might see this in action if you made the last Z move longer.
[22:00:52] -!- ve7it has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[22:02:51] <tjtr33> ?? "thats it" meaning one axis had different acc? while x&y had identical acc's & macvel? looks symmetric to me on 2.6.0~pre at F200 2000 and 20000 resp.
[22:02:55] <evokanevo> I tried it but it gave the same behavior. I think it's that the Z-acceleration is lower than the X and Y acceleration.
[22:03:17] <tjtr33> k
[22:03:21] <evokanevo> tjtr33: yes, Z has different acceleration
[22:03:40] <tjtr33> thx
[22:03:47] <pcw_home> Doing the best it can with the Z contraint
[22:04:52] <evokanevo> I think the idea is it starts accelerating to the next line direction as soon as it is P-distance away from the endpoint.
[22:05:06] <evokanevo> (endpoint of the current line segment)
[22:05:50] <evokanevo> And the XY is so fast in comparison to the change in Z-velocity that the Z-displacement is minor.
[22:06:01] <evokanevo> Anyway, problem solved. Thanks again.
[22:17:11] <tjtr33> yes making the sim axis z acc 1/2 that of x&y produces the asymmetry.
[22:17:13] <tjtr33> but it seems wrong,and is certainly unexpected. A caveat about equal axis 'tuning' might be a good idea
[22:19:07] <evokanevo> Yes I am still not quite comfortable with it, but I need to think about it more.
[22:21:13] <tjtr33> and this is just the predicted path based on the given accelerations ( ignore the mechanics for now ) and some people are guessing thier acc values :(
