I am also interested as to the UK shipping/import fees, also, very nice machine!

Tom,
I am setting up my machine with a tool length sensor, I can make a program to move to the sensor and drop the Z axis until the tool tip touches the sensor, but I’m unsure of how to have this...

Thanks for the clarification Tom, I'll use a single input for both axis,

thanks again,

Rich.

Seeking clarification on slave channel limit switches here,
I have a router which I am fitting kflop to which uses 2 motors on the x-axis to drive the two leadscrews, I am intending to use two...

Tom,
we have a router at work which stops the cutting head and lifts it off the work piece when paused, on resume it starts the cutter, waits a short time for it to reach the set speed and then...

Hi,
is there a way of adding additional functions, such as spindle stop to the pause function? something like the user buttons but linked to the pause? is this possible?

thanks,

Rich.

Hi,
I have been using KFlop with the calibration of the steps per inch being set in the KmotionCNC>Tool Setup>Trajectory Planner tab. now I am learning my way about it I have seen that it also...

ok Tom thanks, next question, I have been trying out the program now I have all but finished the probe, and it works ok, had to make a few tweaks to get it working correctly, what I have noticed is...

Tom,
I have been trying to make a program to create a profile in the horizontal plane with a constant z axis height and I have 2 questions;
1. How will Kflop react to a divide by zero in the...

Tom,
I have been finishing off setting up the machine with the new drive electronics (KFlop and Gecko's) and last night was testing the home axis program which I modified slightly, I noticed that...

thanks for that, that all makes sense. I am making a digitising probe which uses the 6 ball design so it can cope with detection in any direction so hopefully it will be fine for some more...

Thanks Tom,
I have the Kflop in the machine and working now and have been getting on well with it. I have also been attempting to create a program which probes a set of points along a line as I...

Hi,
new user hers to please bear with me, I'm upgrading my router with new electronics and am fitting a Kflop, I haven't got it wired in yet but I have spent a little time familiarising myself with...

I really don't think it'll have anything like as much force as that, I don't know for sure but from past experience using electromagnets and solenoids you would need something pretty massive for that...

This has been an interesting read through this thread and I have been exploring different options for a CNC mill, the SVM-0 looks to be what I am looking for although I may save up and get the bigger...

Hi everyone,
I have built a small router in the past but am now looking to get more serious and am here to learn.
