General Mach Discussion / Changed My lead screws from acme to ball screws
« on: August 19, 2009, 09:49:08 PM »
I changed my X and Y lead screws from acme to ball screws so I have to change the pulses per revolution because the pitch is different. When I change the info I save it and I can run my machine with the new setup. After shutting the computer down for the night on restart the next day all the old setup info is back and I have to re-enter the new. How do I get the new info to stay as the default, do I have to redo the whole setup? I am running Mach 2.something.
I also replaced the homemade lineal rail with some Thompson shaft and bearings. At one point I had my machine rapid traversing at 150 inches a minute but it was shaking like Brett Favre in the forth quarter of a playoff game at Lambeau Field.
