And I don't think stall detect is as safe as everyone says ;)

Not true Stall detect works very well when operating within it's parameters. What people misunderstand is that it only works above 300Rpm which really is where you want it to work when motors are spinning fast and where torque is lower.

I realize you are correct, I just haven't gotten into those speeds yet as I'm still testing, trying and learning :)
300rpm with 10mm pitch screws is 3000mm/min. That's more positioning for me and less routing. I do hope that changes for me as the parts would spit out faster..

But that wouldn't help if you crash into a clamp or something during acceleration at say 50rpm, then I would still get the possibility of losing "square"

Well that depends really. The drives have fault feature when tripped for any of the protections, ie: current voltage etc and usually if you hit a clamp or anything strong enought to stall the motor it will fault one of the drives protections anyway. In which case provided you included the fault signal in your E-stop circuit your still safe.

However I can tell you that if you stall the motors other than hitting something then it nearly always happens at higher than 300 rpm, usually when doing rapid moves.

It is all in the future for me...

I am still stuck in hardware mode...


But made some progress today..

Hi all

I want to order some drag chain.
What did i forget..?

Things to put in the drag chain.

Ground wire 4mm2 6mm
Spindle cy 4x1.5 mm 9.6mm
y home switches cy 4x0.75 7.1mm
z home switches cy 4x0.75 7.1mm
y stepper cy 4x075 7.1mm
z stepper cy 4x0.75 7.1mm



Spindle coolingpump/fan cy 4x0.75 7.1mm
or
Supply / return line spindle cooling 2x 8mm

compressed air line 8mm
coolant line 8mm

Control valve air/mist/ coolant cy 4x0.75 7.1 mm, do you guys put that in the controls cabinet?



Miscelanious.. dustshoe retract.. power for camera, spindle illumination cy 4x0.75 7.1mm

Maybe combine all controls like valves, spindle light, mist/air, coolingpump / fan etc in 1 cable.



What did i forget?


Grtz Bert.

You have thought of alot more than me ;)
Good planning!
In my mind you have everything but think about that you want everything to fit comfortably in the chain so make it a little bigger than you calculate that you need :)

Yes bigger, i read that somewhere before.

Thing is ... above say 18x50 mm it gets expensive quickly.

I need about 2 pieces 2 meters total.. not sure about z axis .. maybe just a rubber tube.

Did you guys fill the chain multi layer?
Or should all cables be beside each other.

Maybe air/coolant lines on the outside ?

Grtz Bert.

Ok so,


Cable chain,

Will this fit?





Looks like it is gonna work.

Awesome job!
Have you thought about what happens in the cable chain radius?
I think there has to be some "air" for the cables to move..? But I might be wrong :)
I'm thinking the cables in the outer layer needs to get longer than the ones on the inside...?

No limitswitches? From what I understand softlimits are ok for some...

Bert.
Why do you need a ground wire in the drag chain, also if you want to use cy cable for the switches why not use 3 core 0.5mm. I just have 4 mm air lines in mine and find it ok. You could also use 1.0 mm to the spindle as it is 3 phase and the 2.2kw will be split between the cables.

Just a thought.
