I can open the dxf file, but I can't measure anything on the drawings. The tape control doesn't seem to recognize lines, cercles, arcs, etc... so...
No problem. Last request : could you provide either the blue prints of the ACRO acrylic plate set, or ideally a STEP format of the parts ? I tried...
I am completely unfamiliar with sketchup. Maybe I'll give it a go one day. In the meantime, here is what I started to work on, with the software I...
Thank you, Peter. I will give it a try. I am currently moving out, so I had to disassemble my current printer. Since it has a big flaw (heavy...
Thank you for your reply, BNMaker. The ACRO system would only be used to drive the X and Y axis, at the top of the printer. The heat bed will be...
Hi, I apologize if my question has been answered already... I tried the search function, but did not find any answer. Would the ACRO system be a...
This problem of skipped steps occurred on parts that you used to print without any problem ? On both axis ? When switching to small A4988...
Okay, too bad. Thank you for your reply !
Hello, Has anyone ever tried to change the Acme 8mm leadscrew for a bigger one ? A 10mm or 1/2" one ? If so, can you describe how you did it ?...
I also tried to put the leadscrew of the Y-axis in tension, using my printed parts. On each side of the C-beam linear actuator, I simply put the...
Hello, Update on the TMC2130 : I was not able to reduce the very loud noise in StealthChop mode. I tried the same driver on the Y-axis, but it...
DirkDG, If you have time to explain (or show) your idea on how to install the leadscrew in tension, I would appreciate ! Thank you, Jacques...
Exactly ! The parts I printed help, but it would be better if the leadscrew was in tension. Please keep me in touch!
In this post, I describe how I wired the TMC2130 for the X axis. This is a work in progress ! I haven't fully tested this method, so please be...
Quick update : I am trying the TMC2130 stepper driver, for now only on the X-axis. I will explain below how I wired it to my Rumba board, while...
Hello DirkDG, Thank you for the info! I can go up to 2000 mm/s/s without skipping steps, but I currently run at 1000 mm/s/s. X and Y jerk...
Thanks for the tips! I won't be able to work on the beast before January, because the computer with everything related to 3d printing is...
Well, I did underestimated the price. And once you start building a printer, there is no going back, not really. You can't ship the parts back for...
Hello, Here is my very first build. I named it Hebus. It is a large printer, to build large parts for a big ambitious personal project. Maybe I...
Jacques D published a new build: My first printer! I went for a simple cartesian design, based on evilc66 one. It uses 1000 mm C-beam linear...
