We updated our Cene the CNC Guide with discoveries we made during our prototyping work. Among them are some that we think may spare you a few hours. Hardware and software setup, cutting parameters, …
There is just too much stuff to write all here. You should download the whole package below – it includes:
- Hardware setup: limit switches, tool length probe, pump switch, LED light, chip removal, motor cooling
- Control unit: parallel port, power supply, stepper drivers and settings, weak points and possible improvements
- Software configuration: LinuxCNC configuration
- Other: milling harder materials, bed flattening
