This screw still sounds very rough when it is running. any thoughts on Acceleration and Velocity

What settings are you set to at the minute.? both Acc and velocity please give micro steps drives set to as well.

Hi,


Mach3 settings
Steps per is 800, velocity 200, acceleration 74

PM542 Controller settings
microstep 8 which is 1600 usetps/rev
4.2 Amps

What settings are you set to at the minute.? both Acc and velocity please give micro steps drives set to as well.

Have you tried upping both as 200 & 74 is very low.!! When you say they are rough sounding in what way do you mean.? could you take a video.

What Nm size motors.? how are they wired, Bi-polar parallel or series.? Are you absolutely sure you have wired the phase's correct.?

Hi, it would be really interesting to know how you have fitted the leadscrew please? I have CNC'd my S7 with ordinary screws but accuracy isn't great and I want to fit ballscrews. The Z axis looks a bit of a challenge and it would be good to know how someone else has done it.

Thanks,

John.
