@tomasblazek8531 2 года назад

Thank you for this video. I am also looking forward to the next video on the larger stepper motors. One thing I would like to praise the most is the fact that you have tried to explain controling of stepper without libraries. In my opinion it is very important to know how things works before inplementing them. Please keep up working, you are helping many curios minds to create new inventions a creations. Best regards one young Enginner

How did you get the TMC2208 to work in that shield?, I could never find any info on how or what I could have been doing wrong

@RandomMakingEncounters Год назад

Exactly what I was looking for! I’m working on a camera slider and was relying on some existing code that wasn’t really meeting my needs. This information gives me the foundational information to build a bit more from the ground up!

@HowToMechatronics Год назад

Glad to hear it! Have fun building that camera slider. Check my DIY camera slider video , it's a bit older project but still it could be helpful. Cheers!

Thank you so much! I'm brand new to all of this and trying to build a motorized/automated monitor stand for my sim rig. This video was super clear and easy to follow and I feel like I can go make it happen now, although I still have to figure out the WiFi connection piece. I'll be searching your channel for info on that.

Further feedback/comment. The 3 axis stepper Antenna Tuning Unit is now turning all 3 devices backwards and forwards using adaptations of your excellent sketches. Learning by doing (and correcting my mistakes whilst learning) and using your tutorials has worked for me. Still a long way to go. Again thank you. Cheers from OZ.

Hi Dean, does your motors run loud? I added a laser setup to my machine with the ardruino, cause my controller don't support a laser.

@Yosemite_Sam Год назад

@@k33501 Happy 2023. Your steppers may make a noise during operation if the settings are not the optimal combination. So the current setting and the Pulse/rev settings can conflict with the sketch itself. I had to experiment a lot.

Hello hope you dont mind me asking but what was the code that you used for the stepper motor that was connected to DRV885 in the beginning of the video? I am trying to create a project where I am able to connect the stepper motor to a controller so I am able to move it in any direction.

This video is an awesome recap on arduino stepper motor use! Theoretically, if you were to over drive a stepper motor with the driver, what would happen? Would you just burn out the stepper driver or would you also take out the arduino as well?

Amazing video !! Would it possible to ask you a question here please? What if I would like to connect a big NEMA 34 with its own large controller, to this CNC board? Is it feasible? Also, do these little red CNC boards allow the great motors to be used at their max speeds? And if not, which Arduino or GRBL system would be suitable for high performance driving of NEMA 34s?

@joshitoshi9835 Год назад

thats awesome, i wanna ask if i want to control two motors about 15m to 20m far from each other, will they still be synchronized and run at same time? wht is the maximum distance at which they will start to differ?

Or Can I just use transformer and capacitor only since it only run on single direction? Note: I only need the motor to stop exactly when the sensor are on Thank you
