Hi Tweakie,
I have tightened the motor block of the x-axis, and thereby I have improved the square and pocket above to be almost quadratic / circular. So you where right, the mechanical binding was indeed the reason
Still, for the steps per, the calculation even with the last value ends up being 320. Whereas I with steps per set to 160 get the table to cut the square depicted above in exactly the right measures? The big question for me is of course: Will I be able to tune my motors to the best performance possible with the present equipment, or will a steps per of 160 limit the possiblities when it comes to torque, speed, etc.
Another question I have for you is about limit switches. The limit switches and the home switches have been working fine, until recently, when I extended the cable for the limit switch of the Z-axis. Now, only the limit switch of the Z-axis is working, the home limit switch for the X-axis and the Y-axis seems dead. I have disassembled the plugs for the extensions to see if if I had made a rotten soldering, but verything seems to be OK. They all seem to be wired to the same pin, is there a way that I can test them individually? I have been looking at Config > Input Signals, but even with the Z-axis disabled (Home, Z++, Z--) the limit switch is working?
Do you have a clue?
best,
Anders
