Great info DC!! Thanks for taking the time to reply back!!! Yes , they are expensive for grl. Consumers. They are all over in the robotic industry running with all sort of application and field.

I have had the same problem a few times already. I mostly get this problem after I do a hard shut down (pull the power plug) while running a G-Code (i.e. because I ran into an end stop or the stepper...

I would like to add a preset to an extruder such as in Repetier's color mixing and virtual extruders definitions, but with the pwm output instructions going to a set of auxiliary pwm pins. Would...

It sounds like a wiring problem. Inspect the cables and connectors carefully.

But if it would be a wiring problem and wouldnt be able to run the stepper at all right? I only get this problem after i pull the power plug
View ArticleRe: Problem with the stepper or driver?
You swapped the connections to the controller and suddenly it started working again. What you changed was the physical position of the connectors either at the motors or at the controller board. The Y...
View ArticleRe: Adding custom PWM output to extruder
Where would you like to put the PWM signal? On the enable or step input? That would not work, since a PWM signal only changes the lengths of a high signal compared to the length of the pause. Also...
View ArticleRe: Adding custom PWM output to extruder
I believe that I can apply a controller to the PWM output so as to keep in speed and timing with the printing speed, but I see what you are saying, where I might just want to drive a pulse per time...
View ArticleRe: Adding custom PWM output to extruder
If you want to PWM only two extruders, you could use one PWM pin to control both enable pins. You just have to invert the signal for one of the extruders. Then you can set the mixing ratio between...

Dear sir, Ramps can work with TB6600, but it shuold be with MKS CD. The A4988 and DRV8825 can run the stepper drive and you need 4042, and you shuol use 12V supply power. (:P)
