Good evening, I just finished assembling a homemade CNC. But when testing the Z axis, when pressing the Z + or Z- buttons of the GCode (version 1.0.9), the axis moves upwards and other times downwards, Noce whatever the reason for that happens, I hope and someone can help me understand this problem.
First of all use a CNC Shield applying a voltage of 19.5 V using A4988 drivers mounted on an Arduino Uno. These Drivers calibrate them in the following way to be used on NEMA 1.7 A motors:
Vref = Imax (8 * Rs)
Vref = 1.7 (8 * 0.1)
Vref = 1.36
Multiplying by 70% which is 0.7
Vref = 1.36 * 0.7
Vref = 0.952 V
After calibrating the drivers. Connect coils 1A and 2A, 1B and 2B in the driver. The configuration of parameters in the Universal Gcode Sender is as follows:
$0=10 (step pulse, usec)
$1=25 (step idle delay, msec)
$2=0 (step port invert mask:00000000)
$3=0 (dir port invert mask:00000000)
$4=0 (step enable invert, bool)
$5=0 (limit pins invert, bool)
$6=0 (probe pin invert, bool)
$10=3 (status report mask:00000011)
$11=0.010 (junction deviation, mm)
$12=0.002 (arc tolerance, mm)
$13=1 (report inches, bool)
$20=0 (soft limits, bool)
$21=0 (hard limits, bool)
$22=0 (homing cycle, bool)
$23=0 (homing dir invert mask:00000000)
$24=350.000 (homing feed, mm/min)
$25=500.000 (homing seek, mm/min)
$26=250 (homing debounce, msec)
$27=1.000 (homing pull-off, mm)
$100=25.000 (x, step/mm)
$101=25.000 (y, step/mm)
$102=25.000 (z, step/mm)
$110=1000.000 (x max rate, mm/min)
$111=1000.000 (y max rate, mm/min)
$112=1000.000 (z max rate, mm/min)
$120=500.000 (x accel, mm/sec^2)
$121=500.000 (y accel, mm/sec^2)
$122=500.000 (z accel, mm/sec^2)
$130=500.000 (x max travel, mm)
$131=500.000 (y max travel, mm)
$132=500.000 (z max travel, mm)
At $ 100, $ 101 and $ 102 I use 25 steps / mm because the NEMA 17 motor takes 200 steps to make a turn but I divide it by 8 because I use a 4 thread ACME thread, then 200/8 = 25 steps / mm.
Next I present a photo of the CNC and video on how the motor behaves every time that pulse Z +, it is observed as it moves towards both sides or sometimes as it does not move.
Noce why this problem happens and apart from the engine vibrates, I hope and someone can help me with a suggestion to this problem or if someone has already happened this.
