General Mach Discussion / Is this prgram ( Mach ) suitable for my milling M/C ??
« on: September 18, 2006, 07:15:36 PM »
Hi every one ......... i wont ask you if i can use this program for my own design ....
Ok let me tell you first about my small milling m/c .... i use 3 Unipolar stepper motors with 1.8 degree / step and i use ULN 2803 ic in my control circuit with the parallel port and i connect the motor shaft directly to the Power screw with pitch 1.2 mm .
Now acording to the previous specifications you must know that if i need to move my m/c in X direction a distance = 5 mm .. the motor must turns 5/1.2 = 4.167 round ... and to do this the motor must move ( 360 / 1.8 ) * 4.167 = 833.4 step
So , if my workpiece is 100 mm square and i use Mach program to do this jop with dxf file .. is the product squre will has the same dimention of the drowing square
I mean that is the program will respect all this ratios in my mechanism?
