General Mach Discussion / Problem with 2 stepper motors on one axis and Home switches
« on: November 13, 2011, 04:04:11 PM »
Hello everybody,
I'm new here and new to CNC World.
My problem is I have a 3-Axis home build CNC and at the y-axis I use 2 stepper motors
That run on spur gears. at first I had difficult time to get those motors to run the same
Direction but I got that figured out. Now the problem is when I set my home switches
and zero out my axis every time I try to reff all home my y-axis is out of wack and this is
A series problem as my 1200oz steppers want to tear the machine a part! likely I have the e-stop
Switch next to me to shut it down.
Can someone help me please?
